Monsters University is now pretty much gone from global theatrical circulation. But how did it stack up against its predecessor? Pretty well, actually.

On a worldwide basis, Monsters University collected $742,646,894 against Monsters, Inc. $562,816,256. (We're not accounting for inflation here.)

But domestically, the original was a stronger performer: Monsters, Inc. -- $272,900,000; Monsters University -- $267,580,051.

Both would have to be considered winners.
