Pixar's Monsters University Coming to Theaters June 21

Monsters, Inc. (2001) is my favorite Pixar movie. So I'm thrilled that the sequel, Monsters University is coming to theaters this summer, on June 21!

The movie is a prequel to the original Monsters, Inc., and explores the friendship between Mike Wazowski (voiced by Billy Crystal) and James P. "Sulley" Sullivan (voiced by John Goodman), who first met in college. Mike and Sulley were apparently in the same fraternity together, and both had life-long dreams of becoming scarers at Monsters, Inc. What originally began as a rivalry soon worked out to be a best friendship.  

Monsters University will feature the vocal talents of Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Sean Hayes, Kelsey Grammer, Frank Oz, Helen Mirren, and of course, John Ratzenberger (who has at least a small part in every Pixar film to date), just to name a few. 

Just as in all Pixar films, Monsters University will also feature an animated short as the feature film begins, titled The Blue Umbrella. It's a story of a lonely, blue umbrella trying to get the attention of a beautiful red umbrella. It doesn't sound like much, but these shorts are always something I look forward to with each new Pixar release.

Take a look at the official Monsters University website. They've got it set up as if it's an actual college university! You should try to apply!
