We've already seen an entertaining teaser trailer for the Pixar Animation sequel Monsters University, and later this month, we'll see Mike and Sully back in the big screen in the 3D re-release of Monsters Inc. But now we have some new images from the sequel showing everyone's favorite monsters starting things off on the wrong foot in college. Though Mike (Billy Crystal) looks excited about arriving at school, an encounter with Sully (John Goodman) at a fraternity party, and they don't really become friends at first sight. In fact, a prank war starts between them, making them enemies before becoming the monster friends we all know. These new images may mean a new trailer is on the way with Monsters Inc 3D out next week.

Both of these images come from Entertainment Weekly, with a few new quotes from director Dan Scanlon.

A look at the relationship between monsters Mike (voiced by Billy Crystal) and Sulley (voiced by John Goodman) during their days at the University of Fear -- when they weren't necessarily the best of friends.

Pixar's Monsters University is being directed by Dan Scanlon, who went from animator to storyboard artist to writer to co-director on Mater and the Ghostlight, making his feature directorial debut. This is a prequel to Pixar's animated movie Monsters Inc, originally released in November of 2001. Disney has Monsters University scheduled for release in Digital 3D everywhere June 21st, 2013 this summer. Visit: MU.com.
