Roar Omega Roar

Roar Omega Roar, often shortened to RΩR is the main antagonistic faction of Pixar's 14th full-length animated feature film Monsters University, the prequel of the Pixar's 4th film Monsters, Inc.

It is one of the six fraternities of Monsters University and becomes the rival fraternity of Oozma Kappa (OK).

Biography[]

Monsters University[]

RΩR is the premiere fraternity on campus, thus when Mike Wazowski enrolls into the university, he immediately tries to join RΩR, only to be mocked by the group for his harmless appearance. The group instead accepts Sulley due to him coming from a family of well-known scarers, but when they find out about Sulley's bad grades, they threaten to remove him from the group if he fails the final exam to Mike. Ultimately, Sulley is removed from the group, not because he failed the exam but because he was kicked out of the scare program along with Mike by Dean Hardscrabble.

During the Scare Games, the RΩRs enlist by replacing Sulley with Randall Boggs as their sixth member. With their skill, the RΩR have great success at the games, coming first at all challenges. However, against all odds, Oozma Kappa somehow stays in the competition after two rounds. RΩR then invites the OKs to their fraternity house under the pretense of their efforts in the Scare Games so far. However, it turns out to be a trap by RΩR to humiliate OK by taking embarrassing pictures of the group, and then proceeding to sell the picture on various products. While this does weaken OK's spirits, RΩR's attempts backfire as OK becomes more determined to come out on top and end up performing better and better at the Scare Games.

RΩR tries to secure victory during the last event - a scare simulator race - but due to fumbles with Reggie and Randall coupled with a surprisingly high score from Mike, OK ends up winning the last event. Due to failing them, Randall is kicked out of the group as a result. After the race, RΩR goes to Sulley (who was running after Mike) hoping to recruit him back to the fraternity, but Sulley refuses and impulsively gives them the trophy as he resumes his chase to Mike.

Party Central[]

The RΩRs (sans Randall) return in Party Central, where they still continue to antagonize the OKs, possibly as revenge for them outscaring them at the Scare Games and becoming even more successful than them.

Trivia[]

Concept art shows that the RΩR fraternity was originally going to be called EEK, and had green as its distinctive color. In the final film, ΣΣΚ is the name of a sorority, while green is the color of Oozma Kappa.
Their abbreviation (RΩR) is a reference to the word "roar." Its name is parodied from "Rho Omega Rho".
Not counting Randall Boggs, the current members Johnny, Chet and Reggie are the only ones in the film to have voices. However, only Johnny and Chet were able to speak.
In the Scare Simulator portion of the Scare Games, Chet and Javier accumulated the same score: 15 out of 20, which gave them 5/25 red scream points of all content of container.
Chet Alexander was originally going to be colored blue.
Concept art of the RΩR fraternity house shows that it resembles a castle/chapel.
Roar Omega Roar has the same colors as Gryffindor House from the Harry Potter series: red and gold.
- Despite having the colors of Gryffindor, Roar Omega Roar more resembles Slytherin. This can be seen in their confidence, their elitism, and their drive to do anything in order to win, such as when they humiliate the OKs during the party. And while OK has the Slytherin colors, they resemble Hufflepuff, whom the Slytherins hold in contempt.
Randall noticeably does not return in Party Central, as the other RΩRs abandoned him following the "hearts" incident during the final round of the Scare Games, thus continuing to fuel his eventual heel turn in the original film.
