Monsters vs. Aliens
March 2009
When California girl Susan
Murphy is unwittingly
clobbered by a meteor full
of outer space gunk on her
wedding day, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches
tall. Alerted to the threat of
this new monster, the military
jumps into action and Susan
is captured and secreted
away to a covert government
compound. There, she is
renamed Ginormica and
placed in confinement with
a ragtag group of other
monsters: the brilliant but
insect-headed Dr. Cockroach,
Ph.D.; the macho half-ape,
half-fish The Missing Link; the
gelatinous and indestructible
B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub
called Insectosaurus. Their confinement is cut short,
however, when a mysterious
alien robot lands on Earth
and begins storming the
country. In a moment of
desperation, The President
is persuaded by General
W.R. Monger to enlist the
motley crew of Monsters
to combat the Alien Robot
and save the world from
imminent destruction.
