While Disney are floundering about failing to promote their 53rd animated feature, they're doing a bang-up job hyping Pixar's fourteenth feature, (and, by the sounds of it, fourteenth hit) Monsters University. Today, that includes rolling out another hilarious new trailer for the Dan Scanlon-directed Monsters, Inc. prequel!
Yahoo! Movie Trailers unveiled the new trailer, which elucidates a lot more of the film's plot and should be considered mildly spoilery. What it should also be considered is freaking brilliant: I already care about the new characters, the comic timing is absolutely immaculate, the animation's superb and stunning, and it has a rocking soundtrack. Pixar certainly look to have another winner on their hands.
In related news, Billy Crystal recently spoke to USA Today about Pixar, working with John Goodman, and the possibility of a third Monsters film, saying, if they do make one, he'd like it to be made a little more quickly than MU: "I know they wanted to get the story right, and that's what makes the movie special. But I can't wait another 12 years." (Via Hypable)
Classes start at Monsters University on 21st June (US) and 12th July (UK).
So funny. Art is already my favorite. Not favorite new character. Favorite character, period.
