Boo.Scared? Don't be. It's just Phil and Andrew with another podcast! This week we both scream for the new Pixar film, "Monsters University." Listen as we discuss the current state of Pixar films and compare this one to it's predecessor, "Monsters, Inc." (which happens to be Andrew's favorite film from the animation juggernaut). We both notice that "Monsters University" seems to be more about satirizing the college experience than continuing the poignant streak of other Pixar films.
