Since hearing about the prequel to one of my favorite Pixar films, Monsters, Inc., I've been rather excited about Monsters University. The end result, while not awful, isn't fully what I expected either. Following Sulley and Mike through their first year of college, Monsters University is a prequel breaking the tradition of sequels, and they do a pretty good job of it on the technical end of things. Overall, the 3-D, while cool, is mostly unnecessary. I actually forgot about it at one point.
