I’m not the first one to think of this— crediting @histevvie on tumblr for the idea!

First time animating Roger, though! Tried to stay on model to my best ability

Can we all agree that

Randall is NEITHER a Sweet woowoo misunderstood baby NOR is he a completely Heartless and soulless demonic creature with 0 feelings?

Like even in Monster's at Work we can see that Yes. He's definitely an awful person who has done terrible things and is still out to go do more terrible things BUT we also can see he has shown to be genuinely grateful to Johnny for saving his life and actually considered Johnny to be his Best Friend (even if it was completely one-sided on his part)

yesss randall is definitely not one or the other for me

i LOVE randall but i do not see him as a sweet misunderstood baby. he has done so much awful things and as of now shows no sign of remorse. it's supposedly been 20 years since college and he's only gotten more bitter over the years; far from who he was at the beginning of college. it's unfortunate that he got mixed up in the wrong crowd, but every bad choice he's made was his choice to make. also i feel like some people forget just how messed up his plan with the scream extractor in mi was, not to mention his sadistic and murderous desires (if randall was visible during his fight with sulley it would NOT be family friendly 💀)

but he isn't doing what he's doing just for the sake of being evil, yes he's mean, but at his core, it's just that randall will go through great lengths to get what he wants, to get the recognition he craves so much, and most especially, to one up sulley. his mindset was warped by ror, which changed his life forever. monsters university fleshed out this part of randall's character, as it provided context on why he’s the way he is, and gives a different meaning to his words, actions and intentions.

though i felt randall and johnny's best friendship was random considering what happened in mu, it was an interesting change of pace to see post mu randall actually like someone. randall mentioned that he owed johnny one, but i feel like they still genuinely enjoyed each other's company. like you can see that randall and johnny actually have a connection that isn't just strictly business, unlike randall and waternoose.

i do think that part of randall also still craves johnny's attention like he did in mu. considering he's been wanting to get in with the “cool kids” since literally day one of university suggests he's been wanting recognition and status for a very long time. and with johnny still having power and status as the ceo of fear co., i feel like randall would've still wanted to work with him despite what happened in mu.

i feel that even post uni randall still feels a need to impress johnny. like when he scares tylor, it seems like he immediately looks to johnny for his reaction and approval. then, he makes a joke at chet's expense, and after, goes to stand by johnny's side. with chet being johnny's former right-hand man, it makes sense why randall takes digs at him

i imagined that sometime in university, randall said something mean to chet and johnny found it funny, so he kept doing it for his attention (like the chet-wetter thing) and even now, he still brings it up and likely says and does other mean things to chet to raise himself up and put chet down

i would've liked to think that randall narrating johnny as his “best friend joined at the hip” could've just been something he made up for his own sake, but since maw johnny seems to actually neglect chet in favour of randall, i guess the writers just decided randall would actually just be his bestie moving forward (though i think leaning into the other concept would've been cool)

would randall feel like johnny was just using him, perhaps like he did in university? maybe. but perhaps he'll take a false sense of love and acceptance over nothing

though i don't think randall would've stuck around unless it benefited him, and that proves to be true when randall abandoned johnny after he got jailed lol, with johnny not being in a place of power anymore, he's useless to him now

now that randall is on his own, i want to see him work solely for himself, by himself. not under anyone, no boss, no more with being a follower. unless some other random monster shows up or they bring back waternoose or something, randall is very likely going to be the main villain of the next season, and this could be an opportunity to see more of his personality, especially since we still have yet to see randall interact with mike and sulley

maybe he could show a shred of regret, acknowledge the weight of his actions, or how much he's changed, but still show that he's gone too far now to go back to how he was. maybe he hates who he was before. or maybe he hates who he is now. but he's done too much and worked too hard to just accept that he's lost and go back to how he used to be

maybe mike could say something along the lines of "what happened to you, randall? what happened to the nice, friendly guy i knew in university?" and randall could be like "the guy who was naive? the guy who was insecure? the guy who was nothing more than second best? that guy is gone wazowski. long gone."

or maybe randall could tell sulley how he genuinely feels about him, and how much he was affected by always being in his shadow. perhaps sulley could acknowledge his skills and say that he could turn things around and do great things at the factory, and randall could laugh at the idea and say some stuff like "work together? under your management? what a joke. i don't think so. i'm not standing in your shadow, sullivan. not anymore."

idk lol but i think it would be cool to give randall some kind of scene that acknowledges his past or makes you sympathize with him a bit but not excuse his actions, or something to make the audience reflect on how tragic his character is or what could've been. i'd also like if he went as hard as he did when he nearly pushed sulley off the door to his death, especially considering the position sulley is in now

mu's existence changed and fleshed out randall's character (even if he didn't have as much scenes as he could've) and i would love to see this show do the same. except tylor is the main character and the show focuses more on mift; even mike and sulley aren't really the focus so i don't think they'd put that much emphasis on randall (but i'd love to be proved wrong)

for the record, though i currently think randall is in a state where he's far from redemption, i'm not completely closed off to the idea as long as it's in character and written well. though no offense but idk if maw/disney could actually manage to pull that off lol. whatever happens i just hope they do his character justice at least 🙏

(I'm very sorry that I didn't publish more new posts a month ago than I did one a month ago; because I'm semi-inactive as long as I'm just browsing on search or on followed tags and reblogged others' posts in my page for my general interest)

Yesterday, it was about four days in a row that I slowly but semi-decidedly finished the design sheet/concept art + supplementary informations of Randall Boggs and Mr. Waternoose from Monsters Inc. in the version of my unfinished but immediate Crossover AU project/fan book called "Star Heart", this is because this idea of mine usually arose from my strange imagination about the fact that it would happen to these two villainous and meanly disruptive monster boys who generally appeared more often in my Crossover AU of the project at all lol XD.

Anyway, I hope you like my conceptual fan work of two MI villains, as I haven't drawn them in two or three years.

Art, Star Heart AU variant and the mention of my characters (including Dile) are belongs to me (C)

Randall and Mr. Waternoose from Monsters Inc. franchise belongs to Walt Disney Pictures/ Pixar Animation Studios (C)

Randall dies. I don't wanna him to die nevertheless but I guess he could die in Season 3.

Monsters at Work all endings

Waternoose ending : Mike and Suley failed to get out of the Himalayas, now scream extraction is the new way to get energy

Randall ending : Randall finally got his revenge for Monsters University, Mike and Sulley now end up as stiff footstools stuffed with sawdust

Post-apo ending : MIFT failed to stop Johnny from turning on the scream amplifier, now Monstropolis is one big empty hole, the only survivor is Johnny himself but he won't stand on his own two feet either

Politically correct ending : Cutter and Sunny get married

Garry ending : The Big Wazowski didn't win the bowling match now he is Garry's slave for the rest of his miserable days

Romantic ending : Mike and Celia take it all and go to the Bieszczady Mountains to a world of humans

randall deciding if he should stay to help break johnny out of prison or save himself

[animation-and-videogame-fan]

well..

I kindaaa designed my own version of Wendy. I love the idea of her being a monster sized worm on string because of Gen z nostalgia, and I feel like I havnt seen many species in the franchise of monsters who have no arms like snakes or worms. Her being a worm on a string type of monster would make sense due to Roger being very fluffy and thin especially compared to his dad. Also the fact that she would use her entire body or her tail as limbs due to not having any. Cuz Roger only has five limbs which he can interchangeably use as arms or legs while his dad has two arms and six legs. As for Roger having tentacles, I believe that he got them from his dad’s side. Cuz he is a crab monster, which are associated with the ocean, and tentacles are seen on octopuses and squid, who are also associated with the ocean. So I think it’s not that hard to believe that Waternoose’s family could all be based on different sea creatures and that the tentacles skipped a generation.

As for Wendy’s personality, I feel like she would very sweet, playful, and sometimes manic when she’s around his son, giving him all the love she could, while she can be seen as defensive, untrusting, and sometimes even rude around others. I would like to believe that after what happened with Waternoose she just kinda lost half of her sanity, but tries to stay strong and stable for her son

And this might be a stretch but I’d like to imagine her being voiced by Racheal House, who voiced Moana’s Grandma and Terry from Soul. Not only is she from New Zealand herself, (and she has worked with Rhys Darby before, according to her wiki filmography) she has the perfect voice to sound like a sweet yet sassy elderly lady who would do anything for her child (Like Moana’s grandma) , but who is also fighting her own demons which would come off as her being rude and condescending (Like Terry from Soul)

Anyways, yeah!! I hope y’all like the design I came up for her. And if y’all think i should change some things about her design, let me know please! I want to make her look as good as possible :)

I've been thinking....🤔

People talk a lot about wanting Randall having a redemption arc (and I understand)

But what do you guys think about the possibility that the Redemption Arc could go to either Johnny or Waternoose?

As painful as it is for me to say, I find the idea of these two getting redemption arcs more likely than Randall tbh

I'd say it's possible for Waternoose since he HAS shown remorse and just wanted to solve the energy crisis, however that line in the gif above, as well as the fact that the writing staff don't really seem to be particularly interested in bringing him back makes me uncertain how probable that would be

Johnny is more hard for me to say, cause while he MIGHT have some redeeming qualities (he seems to love his kids at least), he also doesn't seem to show any remorse for his actions similarly to Randall. He also KNEW the type of person Randall was yet still chose to work with him anyways so I honestly can see this one going either way

What do you guys think?
