Sequel Posters: ‘Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2’ And ‘Monsters University’
It’s not always the case that “family films” actually appeal to the whole family, but two that do areMonsters, Inc.andCloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. So even though we (as childless adults) may not be in their ideal target demo per se, we’ve very much looking forward to the sequelsMonsters UniversityandCloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2. Both are due out later this year, and both have just released new posters which you can check out after the jump.
It’s hard to go wrong with bright colors and cuddly characters, but the Disney marketing team may need to pick up some new tricks. Cute as it is, thisMonstersposter falls right into thetiresome trendof cramming as many characters as possible into a single sheet.
Much better is theCloudyad, which shows off a wide array of creatures without crowding them too much. Flint (Bill Hader) and his friends are at the center, surrounded by the adorable / horrifying food-imals. We’ve met several of these mutant crittersbefore, but this is our first look at the cheesespiders and tacodiles that we’ve previously only heard about.
Monsters Universityhits theaters first, onJune 21.Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2follows a few months later onSeptember 27. Here’s the synopsis for the former:
… And the latter:
In the wake of the disastrous food storm at the end of the first movie, Flint Lockwood and friends are forced to leave their town of Swallow Falls. But when it is discovered that sentient food beasts have overrun the island, they are asked to return to save the world…again.
