I’m just asking for your opinion on what happened ‘behind the scenes’
at Monsters, Inc. concerning the Scream Extractor. Do you believe that Randall gets too much of the blame for
what happened, or did he deserve banishment? Did Waternoose get off lightly, and what is the likelihood of him
serving a long prison sentence, or worse? Were Mike and Sulley right to banish Randall and not Waternoose, or
should neither of them recieved this punishment?
Well, let’s see… the whole banishment
sentence for Randall was very quick, because hey… Mike and Sulley wanted to get rid of him as quickly as
possible… it was quite a fast-paced scene with the door hopping. Waternoose obviously had negative intentions
for the fate of the company, and Roz was undercover to figure this out, I think.
I think it’s interesting
that kidnapping children would lead to such a big crime… just like in real life, despite the fact that monsters
and humans in Monsters, Inc. live in two different worlds. Both Waternoose and Randall had no sympathy for the
children they would hurt to get the company back to the top (or for Randall’s case, being the number one
scarer). It was wrong what they did, and I think they deserved their punishments.
Now, of course you KNOW my thoughts,
but since some people obviously don’t, I am going to reiterate, so READ up, kids!
FACT-Randall’s motives
had NOTHING, as in ZERO, to do with him becoming Top Scarer. He actually SAYS this himself. The Scream Extractor
was NOT hooked up to the Scare Board tally, but was merely a prototype machine, so any screams collected via
testing it would NOT have counted towards anyone’s Scream Totals, or helped, or hurt, anyone’s position in the
rankings. Randall also says that once the machine proves successful, “we won’t need Scarers anymore”,
so what would even be the point of him trying to get ahead in the rankings of a position that would soon be
obsolete?
FACT-Waternoose’s family OWNED Monsters, Inc. HE says this, several times, in fact, throughout
the movie. WHY would Waternoose do anything that "had negative intentions for the fate of the
company"? That would be like cutting off his nose to spite his own face! If the company was hurt, his BANK
ACCOUNT would also be hurt, and money was what Henry J. Waternoose was all about! HE ordered the building of the
Scream Extractor because he knew that in the long run, that would be a fool-proof way of making MORE MONEY. He
did not care who he had to use to achieve that end, or who he had to dispose of in order to ensure the success of
the project.
FACT-There ARE criminal trials in the Monster World, as we can gather from Mike and
Sulley’s conversation with a female employee near the beginning, when Sulley asks her, "How was jury
duty". That being said, it was ILLEGAL for them to act as judge, jury and executioner by
“banishing” Randall! That would be just like ME saying to you(Aggie)that I object to your post; it
made me mad, so I’m going to throw YOU in jail! I have absolutely no right, no legal or moral basis for doing
so, and neither did Mike and Sulley have any legal or moral basis for what they did to Randall! Randall was
under complete control by that point, was no longer fighting, and the RIGHT and GOOD thing to do would have been
to take him to the authorities. That way Randall could have at least had a trial, and gotten to tell HIS side,
but wait-Mike and Sulley have also broken the law by harboring a human child, so they opt out instead to break it
again. What they do is an act of revenge, plain and simple. It is NOT “justice”! They PLANNED what
to do with Randall, they KNEW that he would likely be killed as a direct result of their actions. In the US,
this is known as Pre-Meditated or First Degree MURDER, and in my homestate, both Mike and Sulley would be
eligible for the death penalty if caught and tried!
FACT-Mr. Waternoose was the mastermind behind the
whole Scream Extractor plot. Randall had no influence or power in the companay whatsoever, and it was clear that
Waternoose did not even LIKE him. I know that most of you are students, with very little real world career
experience, so let me tell you, the chances that a big corporate CEO will listen to a nobody like Randall are
less than that of a tsunami hitting Nebraska! Mr. Waternoose, however, IS taken in by the authorities, and he
WILL have the opportunity for a trial. He is also very RICH and powerful, and if we have learned anything from
recent high-profile trials of rich and powerful celebs like Michael Jackson and O.J. Simpson is that money often
DOES talk, loud and clear! Waternoose will have access to the very best legal teams in the Monster World, and in
the meantime, he at least will have a roof over his head, three meals a day, tv, a bed and a gym…all this for
having masterminded the Scream Extractor plot, used many people(including Randall), and attempting
murder(possibly succeding in some incidences we don’t know about, but Randall clearly felt he had a good reason
not to cross him, and losing his job was probably the LEAST of his worries). What does Randall get for having
gotten caught up in all this, and being in a position where he had no power at all to go against his boss? Being
ILLEGALLY thrown into a trailer in Louisiana, and possibly being brutally beaten to death and EATEN! If THAT
was “deserved”, and fair, then obviously SOMEBODY has a VERY different definition of “fair”
and “deserved” than I do!
One of the recurring themes bleated(as in sheep)by those who feel that
Randall was the epitome of All Evil is the “he had no sympathy for children” mantra. Why SHOULD he
have any sympathy for human children? He’s NOT human! He sees them as ALL monsters do-as non-sentient and very
dangerous animals, analagous to the way that most humans see reptiles in OUR world! Human children as also seen,
though, as an indispensible resource to be exploited, comparable to say, a venomous snake that has a
beautifully-patterned skin that humans like to fashion into shoes, hand bags, hat bands, etc. Few humans would
feel much sympathy for such a snake and would justify killing it for its skin by the fact that it is potentially
dangerous, it’s very different from us, and the people who kill and skin such snakes need the money. That’s
basically how human children are viewed in the Monster World. While so many people love to go on about how
RANDALL “didn’t have any sympathy for children”, they also love to conveniently forget what their
beloved Mike Wazowski wanted to do to Boo-abandon her in the wild, throw her out of the city with a giant
catapult, leave her to the CDA for them to destroy, throw her into a strange door with strange humans-doesn’t
sound too “sympathetic” to me! AND, Aggie-let me ask you THIS-IF Randall disliked human children so
much, or had no sympathy for them, WHY the HECK did he NOT kill her in the Door Vault scene? He’d been ORDERED
to, by Waternoose, after all. Instead, he actually PULLS HER UP CLOSER to him and prevents her from slipping,
after he CAUGHT her when she slipped from Sulley’s grip! He could have just dropped her, or bitten off her
head, any of several means he had for disposing of her, but he DOESN’T. Now, I know you’ll be squealing,
“but he was gonna put her in the Scream Extractor, so she had to still be alive…”, so let me ask you,
WHAT had happened to the Scream Extractor by this point in the movie? If you need to go back through the DVD and
watch that whole ending again, feel free to do so before you attempt to answer that. And please do not suggest
that Randall was going to keep Boo alive there in the factory for the several weeks it would take him to repair
the Scream Extractor, with the CDA crawling all over the place-give him more credit for intelligence than THAT!
If he “had no sympathy” for her, WHY did he not only keep her alive, but handled her carefully and did
not even speak harshly to her, not once?
Bottom line-NO, the punishments of the two conspirators, Randall
and Mr. Waternoose, did NOT fit their crimes. Randall was the victim of revenge by two individuals who had no
more right to banish HIM than he had to banish THEM, and two wrongs STILL do not make a right, folks!
Waternoose, on the other hand, would have a VERY good chance of walking free after his trial, ESECIALLY given the
absence of a key witness-RANDALL! That would be so wonderful, for him to go free and be able to cause Sulley all
manner of grief, all because Sulley ensured that the main witness who could have testified against Waternoose was
no longer around! As Earl Hicky would put it, “now THAT’S Karma for ya!”
pitbulllady
I still believe that they deserved what they were given. In the end, they would be hurting
innocent children. I… hehe… really don’t agree with your idea of Sully and Mike being put into
jail.
Did my opinion seriously make you mad? 
Give me ONE reason WHY
Mike and Sulley should not be punished? IF Randall WAS killed, they committed First Degree Murder; WHY
shouldn’t murderers be punished? Give me ONE good reason WHY Waternoose, who masterminded the whole thing,
deserves at the worst a jail sentence, with a roof over his head, three square meals a day, medical care, air
conditioning, heat in winter, a bed, visits from his family members and lawyers, and even possibly, why he
deserves to GO FREE? Like I said, we’ve seen that the rich and powerful often DO get out of punishment. Does
Waternoose deserve to go free, after he was behind the whole thing? Does he deserve a nice cell, probably not
even in a maximum security prison(which means he will have time on the outside with good behavior), even though
it was HIS idea to build the Scream Extractor, HIS idea to choose some naive young employee who probably felt he
had little to lose and make HIM design and build the thing? Even though Waternoose tried to kill one of his own
best friends? He deserves to go free, or merely have to wait out a prison sentence after all of this?
Give me one good reason(and don’t use that “hurting innocent children”-these are NOT humans
we’re talking about; did you not read the part about how human children would be no more than dangerous animals
to the denizens of the Monster World?)why Randall, who was MADE to design and build the machine, who probably had
a VERY good reason to believe that Waternoose would have killed him if he’d failed to carry out
orders(especially seeing as how Waternoose treated an old friend, Sulley, when Sulley found out about
Waternoose’s plans)-deserved to DIE while his BOSS gets a free trial and at the worst, a sentence in a
minimum-security prison? Why should Randall’s punishment be so much more severe than the one who was
responsible for the whole thing in the first place, when Randall most likely had very little, if any, choice in
the matter by that point? To use an analogy, that would be like ME forcing YOU, under threat of death if you
fail to obey directives, to do something illegal, like rob a bank, and then I get a fair trial, and maybe go to
jail for a few years and then get out to do as I please, while YOU do NOT get a trial at all, but are taken out
to the woods and shot to death by two of the bank tellers. Tell me, would THAT be fair or just?
Still
think that Mike and Sulley are not guilty of any crime? So, I guesss it’s OK for any person to kill another
person out of revenge, because that person has done something wrong to them? Yeah, that works REALLY well…you
can look at what’s happening in the Middle East to see how well revenge works at solving problems. Let me put
THAT in an analogy. Let’s say you are ordered to kill ME, by someone you yourself fear. We get into a fight,
but I win, and gain control of you. Now, the LEGAL thing to do would be to take you to the authorities and
turn you in, correct? OR, would it be OK if I and a friend talked over what your fate should be, then decided to
take you up to an interstate overpass, and drop you off it into the path of an oncoming car, where you will
certainly be killed. Does that mean that my friend and I are innocent, and that we are justified in throwing you
to your death, because you’d earlier tried to hurt me? What is your LOGICAL, as opposed to emotional, basis, in
other words, for believing that Mike and Sulley deserve no punishment whatsoever, and Waternoose deserves a
minimal punishment, while Randall deserves to “pay the ultimate price”, respectively, for what they
did? And again, “hurting innocent children” does not apply, since that was not even the reason why the
Monster World had laws against bringing in children in the first place; their laws were to protect MONSTERS from
the alleged danger of “toxic” human children, NOT to protect the children, who were believed to be
dangerous and non-sentient and not deserving of any such protection. I’d also very much like to hear YOUR
theory as to WHY Randall did NOT kill Boo in the Door Vault scene, even after the Scream Extractor had been
destroyed, IF indeed he really intended to harm her.
And yes, it pains me greatly when people cannot be
reasoned with. It’s like a person who has at least 10 different facts in front of them proving that water is
wet, including the personal testimony from someone who’s had water poured on them and gotten very wet indeed,
yet they insist on saying, “Well, I still believe that water is DRY”, yet they can’t come up with one
piece of evidence to back it up.
pitbulllady
I just don’t see this, sorry. I
still laugh when I think of the idea of Mike and Sulley being trialed for murder. But I think you might be biased
as a big Randall fan. Mike and Sulley’s intentions were pure: ultimately wanting to take the kid back home and
cause no more trouble. If they brought back Randall, he’d just get away again.
Maybe cause I don’t like
taking family films THAT seriously… 
But seriously, don’t get angry with me just because I don’t agree
with you. This debate is ENTIRELY different from proving water is wet.
Whoa take it
guys, you two may have different opinions but that doesn’t mean we need a verbal match. 
I don’t
think Randall deserved to be thrown through a door for what he did… maybe he ISN’T a happy ray of sunshine
(can’t see why that’s an issue anyway. Neither was Roz) , but that doesn’t mean anyone, not even the main
protaganists had the right to take it upon themselves to punish him. Especially if they didn’t have the legal
authority. But the film was coming to an end, and we all know that Disney is quite famous for disposing of the
antagonist (at least the one with the most screen time as an antagonist) at the last minute in the most dramatic
way.
Not fair because let’s face it money DOES speak with a booming voice in the corporate world no
matter what dimension you live in.
Yeh, I usually take that into consideration when watching a Disney or Pixar film,
hehe.
Thank YOU! Revenge and vigilantism are still WRONG, period! Sulley and Mike had
no more legal authority to decide upon Randall’s fate than I have in punishing someone. What they did was NOT
self-defense, was NOT to protect anyone from anything Randall MIGHT do in the future, but an act of REVENGE, pure
and simple, for what he’d already done. A police officer friend of mine(who is also our school’s Resource
Officer)told me that over 80% of the people in prison for murder committed their crimes out of revenge, to
“get even” with the person whose life they took for something that person had done to them, whether it
was hurting them, or cheating on them, or stealing something from them, or whatever. Whether anyone WANTS to
believe it or not, fact is, IF Mike and Sulley were to be caught, and it could be proven through their trial that
they intentionally through Randall into that trailer so he’d be killed, they would be found guilty of
First-Degree or Premeditated Murder! Yet, we are supposed to believe that they are such wonderful guys and
heroes;’ REAL heroes don’t do stuff like that. And the worst part is not so much that Sulley and Mike did
something awful in revenge and got away with it, but that the individual who was BEHIND the whole plot of the
Scream Extractor, who even ADMITS his plans to “kidnap 1,000 children” to Sulley, will likely get a
very light sentence, IF he gets any at all!
I do not buy into the “Randall would only get away”
theory to justify Mike and Sulley killing him. There is no evidence to suggest that Randall was a lifelong or
hardened criminal with a history of evading capture, in spite of his unique ability. He was, in fact, very naive
and immature in spite of his intelligence. At the point at which he was thrown into that trailer, he had given
up. He KNEW that he was defeated and that there was no point in trying to continue fighting. There’s no reason
to believe that if he HAD been turned over to the proper authorities, he would not have cooperated with them
fully. Randall was just following orders, probably having little choice in the matter by that point, and had no
“beef” with any other monsters besides Mike and Sulley, and even his worst actions against them were
not of his choosing. That does not make them RIGHT, but there IS a difference between acting under actute duress
from another individual you have reason to fear, and acting on your own, which is what Mike and Sulley did. I
can’t help but be reminded of the persistent arguement from a guy who called himself “Funone”(yeah,
loads of fun HE was) on the IMDb boards, who insisted that EVEN if Randall had been a nice-acting guy and done
NOTHING wrong, he STILL should have been killed because of two things: One, he was scaly and reptilian, and Two,
he had that unique ability to blend, a “Super” power if you will, and according to Mr. Funone, ANYBODY
who has an ability like that, which no one else has, is automatically a serious danger and threat to society,
regardlss of how they act, and the only safe recourse is to kill them, since they “would only escape”
if taken to prison! I had to ask him, of course, if he happened to have red hair that sticks straight up, and
wore a black-and-white suit with a big “S” on the front, and had a thing for capes, since that is
EXACTLY the same belief that motivated Syndrome!
pitbulllady
Well, I certainly don’t agree with what this Mr. Funone said. But then again,
it is his opinion.
If Mike and Sulley had the intention of killing Randall, they would’ve done so. I,
personally, don’t think they did. That’s all I’ll say.
IMO opinion, put simply-
Randall and Waternoose both did bad things. They therefore
both deserved some kind of punishment.
Waternoose, being the instigator of the entire thing, and also being a
very important Mon in Monstropolis, deserved a heftier punishment than Randall.
Randall deserved a punishment,
but not banishment, because that might’ve ended in death, which was worse than Waternoose’s punishment.
Mike
and Sulley were right to think that Randall should be punished, but should not have banished Randall, as this may
not have been what a court and jury decided.
Mike and Sulley should get some kind of warning or something
because they took someone’s life in their own hands and did not have the right to do so, even if that person may
not have been the most savoury character.
All four of them were in the wrong at some point.[/list]
What Waternoose and Randall did was certainly wrong and
they DID deserve punishment. Waternoose got what he desreved. He was arressted and would get a trial to give his
reasons for his actions and then deserve a proper sentencing. Whether you’re guilty or innocent, you must be
given a trial. Everyone deserves to tell their side of the story. But for Randall, he was never given the chance.
From what we could see, Randall was nothing but a mere pawn in the whole project. Waternoose abused his
knowledge and used him to make his plan a reality. And Randall never got his chance to reveal this to
everyoe.
What Randall did was wrong, but what Mike and Sulley did was worse since it was a matter of
revenge rather than self-defense. As pitbulllady said, Mike and Sulley were in no danger. Randall was defeated.
There was no reason to throw him through that door, but only as a way to get rid of him for good. And unless
Randall can find his way back to the monster world, no one will never know the reasons for why he did what he
did.
Now my dear friends for Ran here might’ve said this
before, but still I suppose I might get lucky and say something they haven’t heh.
I’m just asking for
your opinion on what happened ‘behind the scenes’ at Monsters, Inc. concerning the Scream Extractor. Do you
believe that Randall gets too much of the blame for what happened, or did he deserve banishment? Did Waternoose
get off lightly, and what is the likelihood of him serving a long prison sentence, or worse? Were Mike and Sulley
right to banish Randall and not Waternoose, or should neither of them recieved this punishment?
Randall
DOES get too much of the blame. Now this may be speculation, though for speculation it IS pretty reasonable, but
it can be said that Randall was forced in ways to DO these actions. Sure. Ran ain’t no saint, but in NOT being a
saint he is affected by the ways of the workforce. In such, it could be said Waternoose FORCED Randall to make
the Scream Extractor.
You may ask yourself why I say this. In the whole film Randall is the ONLY reptilian
monster seen. We can exclude Ms. Mae as a Medusa’s hair relatively is a fashion statement heh. But think about
it. In most ways, in our world and in many religions, snakes and reptiles are seen as evil. Could Randall being
the only reptilian monster in the movie be considered a hat tip to that?
In any case. Randall would have
worked very hard to reach where he was (even though in reality he is Top Scarer), and Waternoose COULD have taken
that away from him.
In short, Blackmail if you will.
But if you think morally, Randall could have thought
that this action, making a machine that would save the energy problem, would be considered noble.
As for
Banishment. No. I admit, even though being a Ran Fan myself, Randall had made mistakes. Sure. Getting off
scott-free might not be for him. But Banishment could be considered the WORST punishment in the Monster
World.
I’m unsure if Pitbulllady mentioned this, but it can be said that Sullivan and Wazowski KNEW where
they were putting Randall. But even if they did not, Randall could have died. They had NO authority to DO that
action at all.
Waternoose was the mastermind behind this whole thing. But given his family history (three
generations of Waternooses) and the fact that he is wealthy may get him to break the "seemingly
flawless", if you will, judicial system to get off, or at least a rather low sentence.
As said
before, Sullivan and Wazowski had NO AUTHORITY to do what they had done.
And THINK ON THIS. They are as guilty
as anybody.
HIDING THE KID from the C.D.A.? Causing MASS PANIC? Banishing and/or killing a fellow
worker?
And they BOTH get off SCOTT FREE.
TELL ME…is that justification at
all?
Overall.
Waternoose = Bad Guy
Randall = Pawn
Sullivan/Wazowski = "Good guys that
got off scott free even though they caused panic in the first place"
You do not have to be the one
to “pull the tigger”, so to speak, to deliberately kill someone. MANY murderers use more indirect ways
of disposing of people, since in their minds, it absolves them of guilt. If I throw a person off of a bridge,
and they drown, technically it wasn’t ME who killed them, since I’m not water, but nonetheless I would still be
100% guilty in causing their death. If I sic one of my Catahoula Leopard Dogs on someone, and the dog mauls that
person to death, I am still guilty of murder, even though it was actually the DOG who killed them! The point is
that they died because of my deliberate and intentional actions, because I WANTED them dead, but I didn’t want
to dirty up my hands. That’s what Mike and Sulley did; they KNEW that it was very likely that the people inside
the trailer would kill Randall when they threw him in there, just as I would know that the water beneath the
bridge would kill that person I threw into it in that hypothetical situation. Mike and Sulley took the law into
their own hands, and get rewarded for it. Mr. Waternoose could very well wind up being set free, and getting no
punishment whatsoever, and at the worst, his punishment is still nowhere NEAR as severe as Randall’s, even
though HE was responsible for the whole thing! All four broke the law, and did what was wrong, but two of them
got off Scott-free, the one who committed the worst crimes will likely only get a minimum punishment, IF any,
while the one who really had the least say-so got the worst possible punishment, for anyone. And what of Fungus?
HE was every bit as guilty as Randall in this whole thing, yet HE not only avoids punishment, but is also
rewarded by being made a Comedian!
pitbulllady
I’ve not seen MI
that many times, but as far as I remember, Mike and Sulley didn’t deliberately choose the door, did they? They
certainly had the intention of banishing Randall, and I’m not saying I agree with that little act of
vigilantism, but as far as I remember, they had no idea where it lead. I’m not condoning their actions, but I
think you may be a little biased in favour of Randall when you argue that putting him through that door was
murder – especially since you never actually see Randall die. In fact, I imagine it wouldn’t be too difficult
for him to escape with his camouflage abilities.
Randall wasn’t the mastermind behind the extractor, but
he was the main antagonist of the film, and sadly, in storytelling, in order to have
a satisfactory happy ending, the main antagonist – despite what it was they actually did – has to meet
‘justice’ in some way. The first comparison that comes to mind is Draco Malfoy in the [i]Harry
Potter[/i] series. He gets quite a nasty comeuppance in every book, despite not being the epitome of
evil but rather a bit of a bully at best, simply because he’s the main opposition to the protagonist.
I
agree that the punishments received didn’t reflect justice on a wide-scale, but I also think that Waternoose
would receive more of a punishment than you imagine. His life is ruined forever. He’s rich, yes, but he’s not
a celebrity, and I think that there’s enough evidence against him that, if and when he is released from prison,
he will never have such a high-ranking position in society again. An undercover agency was spying on his
company, the officials obviously think very badly on what was going on! If banishment is the biggest punishment
a monster could face, he may well be facing it.
And I want to state for the record that I like the
character of Randall, I’m just trying to be objective. 
Off topic: This
guys name reminds me so much of “Fun Boy” from the comic (and movie) The Crow. Not relevent to the
discussion, but I just had to point that out
Actually, Mike SHOULD know where the
door led, since it was part of his job to know where each door that came into Sulley’s Door Station led to, and
to have a profile of the kid and family on the other side. That is revealed in great detail in the
“Essential Guide”, with regards to that being part of a Scare Assistant’s job.
While we do not
actually SEE Randall die, we don’t actually see ANY of Disney’s(or Pixar’s)“antogonists” die, not
directly, anyway. We do not actually see Scar being devoured by the hyenas, do we? We do not actually see Buddy
Pine pureed in the jet engine, yet we are certainly led to believe that they, along with Randall, met the worst
of fates, barring some miracle. That scene in the trailer would not have been as indicative of Randall’s
possible demise if he’d been thrown, say, into an apartment in Sacramento, or a home in Tokyo, but he was thrown
into a trailer in southern LOUISIANA, and mistaken for a “gator”, which is Cajun for "let’s
EAT!"
I don’t think it would have been that difficult to keep Randall in prison, either and
that’s assuming he’d even TRY to escape. He knew he’d done wrong, and was beaten; he also knew that
Waternoose would NOT be happy to learn that he’d screwed up, and he probably had more to fear from Waternoose
than from being in jail! Randall does not literally turn invisable like Violet Parr does, but simply his skin
matches his background, so simply daubing paint on him would make him visable and easy to find, since it would
not change color/pattern. He couldn’t wash it off if it were oil-based, either. I really don’t think that he
was such a hardened, life-long criminal(he never would have been hired in the first place if he was) that he
would have attempted to escape, or that he would have been street-wise enough to elude recapture for long.
Randall may have been very intelligent, but he was horribly naive and childishly immature.
Who’s to say
that Waternoose wasn’t a “celebrity”? That term isn’t limited to actors and singers. He appeared in
commercials that aired in every household with a tv, as this wonderful, concerned, grandfatherly type that would
endear him to many. Bill Gates is certainly a celebrity, and he’s just the CEO of a big corporation like
Waternoose was. He also got off with a slap on the wrist in a BIG anti-trust lawsuit several years ago, and I
can guarantee that if this had been some smaller business owner, he’d have been put UNDER the
jail!
pitbulllady
Correct me if
I’m wrong but don’t we see Dom Claude Frollo go plop into the molten iron in Huntchback of Notre Dame?
Considering that Mike and Sulley had been running through all of these different door,
back and forth through the Human world, then they knew how easy it was to get back into the Monster world. Like,
after Randall said ‘Nice workin’ with ya!', Mike and Sulley climbed into a door which then smashed. But they
very easily got back into the Monster World a matter of moments later.
Therefore, I think Mike and Sulley
did choose that door for Randall to be banished in on purpose, because they obviously wanted to get rid of him
(not necessarily kill him, but get rid of him) permanently, so they chose a door that they knew he would have a
struggle returning from. They also probably thought that any physical injury that Randall might gain in the Human
world would make it even harder for him to return, hence why they chose a ‘dangerous door’. Also, after the
door has been smashed, Sulley says to Boo something like ‘We did it!’, which is pretty conclusive- it’s over
and done with now, Randall isn’t coming back.
You’re asking that of probably the only person in
the Northern Hemisphere who hasn’t seen The Hunchback of Notre Dame,
sorry.
