Toy Story 3
 
<<Beware of spoilers in this thread!!>>

So has anyone seen it?

I've watched it twice now. Gotta say the ending got me stocked. Andy finally letting go of his toys. Maybe it was for the best rather than leaving them in the attic for God knows how long.

Some nitpick:
- Focus too much on kindergarten kids and their kiddie toys.
- No human enemy, like the evil kid, Sid or Al from Al's toy barn.
- No memorable music like Toy Story 2's Woody's Roundup and When Somebody Loves Me.
- Buzz is pretty much a background character in this movie. I always like Woody better, but Buzz should've his moments like when he convinced Woody to return back to Andy, or when he used Sid's fire rocket.

But still, it's pretty good. Although compared to the first two, this one fell a bit short for me. And it's pretty much the end of the series. :tcry:

not seen it yet, but it's going to be interesting to see Pixar use the Toy Story style with modern technology

And I am super SUPER happy they didn't turn it into a 2d movie as planned back in 08

My favorite Pixar movie but that's not saying much since the only Pixar movies I love are the Toy Story movies and The Incredibles.

I enjoyed it from start to finish. It was really made for people who saw the first movie when they were young.

I didn't care about the no human enemy thing because the villain we got was one the most unlikeable assholes I've seen in a movie.

i thought it was amazing but i agree buzz wasnt really a character he was the equivilent of slink from the first movie.

What?:teek: That doesn't make sense. It's like making Star Wars without the visual effects or something.

Yeah I feel the same. Other Pixar movies aren't as captivating as those two to me.

lol yeah that should put it nicely.


I just remembered one scene that I really laughed out loud. It's the scene where Barbie was in disguise wearing Ken's space suit to get Buzz's manual from the Bookworm. The Bookworm saw woman heels under the spacesuit but then he shrug it off, he must've always thought Ken likes to be a girl lmao.:lol::lol::lol:

Going to see it with my kids this Saturday. I think I'm looking forward to it more than my kids are.

Candy Kappa 06-21-2010 08:03 PM

except for Bug's Life I'm a huge fan of all the Pixar movies and shorts. Love the little details they put in like the Teapot.

Cars was also a bit disappointing, since it didn't have the same show-off feel Pixar movies have.

Roseangelo 06-21-2010 08:38 PM

Loved it, loved it, loved it. Really no complaints about it in any way. I was expecting it to be good, but it way surpassed those expectations.

Jester 06-21-2010 09:12 PM

I cried at the end....that is all.

aww that's sweet.

Samhain 06-22-2010 02:20 PM

Going to see it on thursday and im really stoked. After reading the reviews I think this might be the best film of the year.

FlawedCoil82 06-22-2010 10:17 PM

I saw it yesterday. I definitely liked it. It's the best Pixar film since Cars for me. I thought Trixy was cute (the Triceratops). But I'd say How To Train Your Dragon still tops it for best movie of the year (so far). Really, the only Pixar film I didn't like at all was Ratatouille. That film bored me to tears. :tconfuse: And Wall-E didn't do too much for me either. Up was an improvement but still nowhere near the earlier films.

Samhain 06-30-2010 08:38 PM

So I ended up seeing this yesterday. Amazing. I loved it. It really brought back a ton of memories of being younger and going to BurgerKing to see if they were giving out the new Toy Story toys. My favorite part was probably spanish Buzz. Hilarious.

And yeah, I fought real hard at the end. Tears were right there. My GF did tear up. But an excellent end to an amazing trilogy. Pixar really can do know wrong. Cant wait for it on Blu Ray.

Shellsweet 06-30-2010 08:47 PM

Dude, I love Pixar, I love how much they put into Animation and Story.

I enjoyed it so much from start to end (even cried like a baby at the end, couldnt help it. XD)

Buzz was FRIGGIN' FUNNY. Ohmygosh.
(Didn't really have much of a spotlight like you mentioned but it went well with the story anyways)

It felt like it belonged in the collection, I've seen it twice already.

And it was pretty Tense, wasn't expecting that, It was awesome.

So this movie really did earn 4 Stars. It really did.

:tsad:

I still have my Raph, Mike and Don action figures somewhere in the basement. My Leo was stolen when I was 5, he was my first action figure toy ever and I still feel gutted till this day.

Ha! This is exactly how I felt. Even tho I never ''grew'' out of toys. But its just so touching and I completely understand it. It amazing how Pixar can tell a story that both kids and adults alike can get.

So- Buzz is pretty much a background character in this movie.

I agree. Although, Buzz is my favorite. I just love how crazy he is when he is reset. Gotta love it. I like to think my Necas are picking on my toon turtle figures.:lol:

BubblyShell22 07-01-2010 11:05 AM

Loved this movie. It was definitely just as good as the other two. There were a lot of funny moments, and I did tear up at the end because it was so emotional. I also really liked the villain because it was someone we never thought about. Who would ever think that a cuddly bear could be so evil?

Often times its those cute, happy looking toys that freak me out. :lol:

Shellsweet 07-01-2010 01:30 PM

LOL I don't know about you, I can deal with the bear, but THAT MONKEY was scary. :lol:
