Line 10:
Life is great -- until one of the ''extremely'' poisonous fuel sources enters their world and threatens everything. Yes, '''''a human child'''''! Doom-doom-'''doom'''! (Actually, she's [[Cheerful Child|rather adorable]].) Sulley and Mike's friendship becomes increasingly strained as they try to get the little terror back to her world without getting contaminated or arrested. Along the way, they stumble upon a conspiracy that threatens to undermine their life's work -- and possibly their lives.
 
A prequel has been announced for 2013. Titled ''Monsters University'', the new film will star Mike and Sulley in their college days. Dan Scanlon is set to direct.{{verify}}
 
For information on the follow-up DVD short, ''Mike's New Car'', see the [[Pixar Shorts]] page.

* [[Affably Evil]]: {{spoiler|Waternoose}}
Line 107:
* [[Invisibility]]: Randall.
* [[Ink Suit Actor]]: Despite the fact that the cast is full of adorably inhuman monsters they still manage to resemble their voice actors, especially Mike who could not be ''more'' Billy Crystal. And [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent|Randall]] '''is''' [[Steve Buscemi]].
* [[Is That Cute Kid Yours?]]: Waternoose asks Sulley this when he first sees Boo, though Sulley and Mike cover this [[Blatant Lies|by saying that she's Sulley's "cousin's sister's daughter" and that it's "Bring an Obscure Relative to Work" Day.]]
* [[Jumping Off the Slippery Slope]]: {{spoiler|Waternoose did this quite a while ago when he decided that ''nothing'' would stop him from saving his company.}}
* [[Karma Houdini]]: Despite being directly involved in all the nefarious goings-on, including attempted child-torture, {{spoiler|Fungus}} keeps on working at Monsters, Inc. as if nothing happened.
Line 117:
{{quote|'''Number One:''' None of this ever happened, gentlemen, and {{spoiler|I don't wanna see any paperwork on this.}}}}
* [[Lovecraft Lite]]: The proliferation of scales and tentacles and the interdimensional aspects. In addition, the [[Trope]] is played with, in that the monsters regard the human world as a dangerous place and treat Boo like a pint-sized [[Eldritch Abomination]].
** This also counts as [[Fridge Brilliance]]; the monsters, many of which count as kiddie [[Eldritch AbominationsAbomination]]s, in turn consider ''us'' the real monsters.
* [[The Man Behind the Man]] {{spoiler|Waternoose.}}
* [[Master of Illusion]]: Randall.
