Toy Story 3

Parts that made me cry (death scare, Andy and Bonnie)? Check.

 

Awesome getaway plan near the end? Check.

 

Funny moments (Spanish Buzz, Potato Head replacement bodies, Romeo and Juliet dub, etc)? Major check.

 

Cute moments (Spanish Buzz vs. Woody over Jesse, LGM's and the Claw, etc)? Check.

 

Nostalgia? Yep.

 

Such an awesome movie. I'm so buying it when it comes out onto DVD.

 

(PS: The previews were cool, especially for the movies on Voyage of the Dawn Treader and the Guardians of Ga'Hoole; I'm gonna see them both when they come out. :D)

I <33333 TS3.

 

Gotta love how the cloud scene at the end resembles woody's wallpaper in TS1. So like, the trilogy started and ended with the same scene.

 

;___; Yah, I saw that too =D

Guardians of Ga'Hoole

D= I admit, I still have my reservations, but it's better than I thought.

 

Anyway, yeah, TS3 was soooo good. Possibly my favorite animated movie, and certainly one of my favorite movies of all time.

 

edit:

So like, the trilogy started and ended with the same scene.

Like LOST!

 

Always nice when they do that.

I also loved how the beginning had parts that were word for word of Andy playing with the toys (forcefield dog, dinosaur, etc.). Unlike sequels for other movies that have been done, this one actually made sense and didn't feel like an overt bid at making more money.

Aw man, I nostalgia'd so hard at that scene. Nothing like some good old Death By Monkeys.

I know! I would've been happier if Bo Peep reprised her role as "damsel in distress", but with Jesse, Bullseye, Mrs. Potato Head, and the LGM's in the mix, it made up for it.

Trust me, you've barely had anything spoiled for you yet.

Don't forget the Troll orphans. :D

As I said in my own blog, Pixar has done the impossible, and made a threquell that is just as good as the first two movies in the series. Aside from Peter Jackson and his Lord of the Rings adaptions, I don't think any other company or director can claim to have accomplished the same feat. Certainly not Dreamworks, whose Shrek series bottomed out at Wreck the Third and just barely recovered with it's fourth movie. Not Sam Raimi, whose' Spiderman 3 was not nearly as good as his first two Spiderman movies. Not even Starwars, which went down in quality with Return of the Jedi and went downhill from there.

But really, didn't anyone expect less? This is Pixar we're talking about - the company who has yet to make a truly bad movie. Their philosophy of "never making a sequel unless they have a good story to tell" is something every other movie company (including their parent company Disney) should learn from. In a world where this was followed to the letter, well over 50% of bad sequels would likely never be made or would actually be good. Instead, however, we regularly get junk like "Jaws: The Revenge" and the recently anounced "Saw 3D: The Traps Come Alive," which only exist to greedily siphon up the money of naive consumers.

Come to think of it, a world where everyone only made good or well-intentioned sequels would be a world where Pixar controls the entire movie industry, and John Lasseter, Brad Bird, Pete Docter, Lee Unkrich, and Andrew Stanton run the entire company. B)
