No, Monsters Inc. is a monopoly because their company is the major supplier of the city and there are simply no other energy businesses in Monstropolis.

Disney Theory: Monsters Inc is an allegory for the US involvement in the Middle East. The finding of this would lead rise to the company Monsters Inc who seems to have a monopoly on energy in the world.

One of the most important themes in Monsters, Inc. is the whole “good vs. evil” situation, not just in the major corporation being exposed as corrupt (more on that in a minute) but in the simple fact that there are “good” monsters like Mike and Sully and “bad” monsters like Randall.

Taking place long after the events of the film, the factory’s new slogan has been changed from “We Scare Because We Care” to “It’s Laughter We’re After.” Various posters posted along the exterior of the factory inform guests about “Flashlight Tag,” an upcoming activity that’s fun for the whole family.

(Again breaking the rules a bit – there’s a basic economics problem with this storyline, which is that there is an energy shortage – supply is low – which means that Monsters, Inc.

Human children were a resource and very useful, but were also viewed as toxic, disgusting creatures by their entire society, not just by a select few monsters. Another reason why Randall chose Boo is because he did NOT, contrary to what some people believe, design the machine to kill or permanently harm human kids.

Teamwork makes the dream work. Mike and Sulley work best as a team. Mike helps Sulley stay at the top of the scare list every week. Mike also catches scream canisters, files paperwork, and makes sure the best doors come their way. He really is the dream co-worker and the perfect example of what teamwork is all about.

Monsters Inc. is one of Pixar’s greatest movies, putting a great twist on characters that are usually meant to be scary and instead, making them loveable, relatable and funny. The movie has loads of really fun characters, but the movie is all about the duo of Mike and Sulley.

The Scream/Laugh Canister is an object in the Disney/Pixar Monsters, Inc. franchise. Their purpose is to store up the scream energy of human kids that the Scarers collect. Each scream canister would be taken to a different room in the factory, where the screams would be extracted and refined into energy.

Fear Corporation, usually abbreviated to Fear Co., is one of the rival companies to Monsters, Inc., the other being Scream Industries. One of their most prestigious former Scarers was Derek Knight, later Professor of the School of Scaring at Monsters University. Their logo is an “F”.

There is a problem that the world of Monstropolis faces, however — children in the human world are becoming insensitive to the best efforts of monsters to scare them, and are screaming less and less. An energy shortage seems imminent. But not to fear, says Monsters Inc., “We know the challenge — the window of innocence is shrinking.

Monsters Inc. conveys the message that there is still hope in the capitalist ideology — that with the right people pushing the right ideas, it is possible for a non-exploitative relationship to exist between business owners and employees — even though exploitation is a concept that is endemic to capitalism itself.

Waternoose, the successful CEO, is revealed to be ruthless, dangerous, and corrupt; the Child Detection Agency (CDA), a stand-in for the police and other protective services, is portrayed as hapless and cruel in their interactions with Monsters Inc. employees.

Monsters Inc. has been allowed to grow so large because of the Monster World’s reliance upon it, a fact that the company is not afraid to emphasize in its marketing. “We’re part of your life.
