I know this is offtopic, but since its already been brought up...
When Toy Story 3 was in production at Disney (while they were in their dispute w/ Pixar) I was extremly worried: Toy Story 2 had more than adequately wrapped up the character's stories and I didn't trust Disney w/ carrying on Pixar's legacy. This all changed for me when everything turned around and Pixar started production again from scratch. I had my faith in the team restored, but I still wasn't sure whether or not they were beating a dead horse here.
Then I thought about Toy Story 2 again and the ambiguity it did in fact leave behind: Woody was content w/ Andy growing up, but eventually he and the other toys would have to deal w/ it. And therein lies the emotion center Pixar films thrives upon.
I can guarantee there will be a lot tears after people view Toy Story 3, not just because of the emotions in the film itself, but the realization that this story has gone on for nearly fifteen years... this is a film many people of my age group have grown up w/, and to see the potential heartbreak and joy that will ensue in the film's final minutes, it'll be like the chapter on our childhood's finally coming to a close. Just the music alone is enough to choke me up...

Sorry to get all emotional, but I had to get it off my chest...
Back on topic though, as long as Pixar can find a good story and emotional center for Monsters Inc. 2, I can assure you it will live up to the standards we've come to expect from Pixar.
