Monster's University Website

Monsters University now has a website spoofing a real university.
Some of it is cute:
Movie Night
"Screaming in the Rain"
Thursday at 7PM
Some of the site is about as mundane a normal university.

So awesome. I love it. I can't wait to see if they will let a human apply when enrollment is opened for next fall because I am so sending an application!

The Basic Monster Respect program creates a safe environment for personal growth and cultural education, where students can learn to judge each other by content of character, not color of fur. A place where more arms means more hugs not more fists, where all students put their heads together to solve problems whether they have two heads or just the one.

Oh man, remember when all the frat bros at Monsters U tried to prank Miskatonic by stealing our mascot before the Fictional 8 finals? Hilarious. Totally backfired as the remembrance ceremony meant the game was cancelled.

Oh, please. Pretty much every college/university website looks like this. I work at a university and spend a fair amount of time checking out other websites in academia for comparisons, and this is spot-on. Has all the little things you start to look for (the fast-facts page, the news feed, the student-life jargon, etc., etc.) and remark upon more when they're harder to find. Whoever did this looked at a LOT of college websites.

Not only are they not accepting applications for students, there is no job listing page for faculty / staff. I thought for sure that I would be a shoe-in for a position there. I could easily put together a 'human-monster relations' course, even though my peer-reviewed research in this area is sorely lacking.

Are Two Heads Better Than One?
Exploring Self-Collaboration
By Maggie Stlllwater
A scientific study of creative abilities among students with multiple heads has revealed that self-collaboration leads to better results in a shorter amount of time than solo brainstorming.
Dr. Friedman Harker explained the findings recently to a distinguished group of visiting scholars. "While most individuals are either right-brained or left-brained, individuals with multiple heads are often both right-and left-brained. This allows them to see the whole picture with more clarity and in deeper detail."
Still, more work must be done to be able to put Professor Harker's discovery into practice. "We have made progress, but this is only the beginning. We now have data that supports the dual-cranium superiority theory. More experiments are needed to determine if this is always true or if environmental factors come into play."
Harker has applied for a research grant that would allow him the full funding necessary to continue, and is "hopeful but realistic" about his chances. "Alas, the decision will be made by one-headed bureaucrats."
Cuuuuuute.

"Looking back even further on the evolutionary tree, modern reptiles are related to chickens through a group of animals known as diaspids, which originated around 300 million years ago. Modern snakes and lizards are both descended from the diapsids—and as it happens, I have had the pleasure of eating a nice assortment of them: black spiny-tailed iguanas, green iguanas, and various snakes. What all of them had in common was a taste and a color after cooking that was like chicken, coupled with a texture reminiscent of crab meat. You wouldn’t mistake the texture of snake for chicken, but run it through a meat-grinder, and you wouldn’t know the difference."

All those saying how much you love Monsters, Inc... Hold tight to those feelings. Because there is NO WAY Monsters University is going to be good.
1) It's a prequel. There are very few prequels which are worthwhile. Especially ones made of whole cloth for the movie industry. With the exception of Godfather II and maybe Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, you probably can't name any which you would watch again.
2) It's Disney-fied Pixar. Since Disney swallowed Pixar, the movies they've started production on and released under that umbrella have been Toy Story 3 (which was actually great), Cars 2, and Brave. Ratatouille, Wall-E and Up were all conceived and started before Disney took over. What is Disney pushing forward with? Monsters University and Finding Nemo 2 are both in the pipeline. Originality is going out the window, and we're going to be stuck in recycling-hell.
3) Dan Scanlon is directing. He might turn out to be a surprise, but having storyboarded Cars and a couple of Disney sequels doesn't impress me. (Not much about that movie impresses me, aside from the exquisite dust rendering.) His previous writing/directing experience is Tracy [which is actually amusing, I must admit, but how does this feed into a quality Pixar film?] (trailer, in 14 parts: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14), and the Cars-derived short Mater And The Ghostlight.
4) They're already marketing it, aggressively, 9 months before its release. You think you like it now, but after you've endured everything between now and June 21 of next year as the Disney juggernaut continues rolling forward, exactly how sick of it are you going to be even before you've seen it?
Seriously, I don't think there's anything to be excited about with this movie. I love love love Monsters, Inc. But I haven't yet seen anything which makes me excited about this movie. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised, but I won't be rushing to the theater to see it.

hippybear, I do indeed have a good amount of trepidation mixed in with my excitement. But I guess I'm just a little more optimistic.
1. prequels - I would also include Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. I was actually less excited hearing about a MI sequel, since the original wrapped up nicely.
2. Disney didn't swallow Pixar, Pixar reverse-acquired the animation division (and theme park division) of Disney, putting its people in full creative control. That doesn't mean that Pixar isn't recycling a bit more these days, but I don't think all the blame, or even most of it, can be put on Disney. That said, Toy Story 3 - great, Cars 2 - bleh, Brave - at least pretty good? I actually haven't seen it yet due to child-discipline related reasons (who's really being punished here?) but reviews seem to line up pretty well. In any case that's still not a bad run of three movies.
4. If the marketing is as good/creative as this website then I say bring it on! If it gets too much I'll avoid it. Generally, I try to avoid finding out too much about a movie I'm looking forward to seeing.
From 2001 to 2009 Pixar had an incredible run of introducing new characters every year. And their creators love them even more than their biggest fans. It's no surprise that these characters, rattling around their memories like a favorite uncle you haven't seen in a while, can generate new story ideas. Plus, MI came out over ten years ago. If Nemo 2 happens, it will also be over ten years post-Nemo. This is not exactly a case of the Disney Sequel Engine kicking into high gear. And as we've seen with Toy Story 2/3, Pixar can revisit these characters and turn out a great movie. And as we've seen with Cars 2, eh.
In the meantime, Pixar has non-sequels slated for 2014 & 2015. Hoping for more great stuff, but aware all creative endeavors have peaks and valleys. I think Pixar still has some peaks in them.
