Escape to the Movies: Toy Story 3

My eyes swelled watching this movie. Especially the last fucking scene before the credits.
This was PERFECT. First was good, second was great, and the last was incredible.
It really says something that I could sympathize with characters that are literally pieces of plastics unlike most film characters that come off as completely superficial.
Thank you Pixar. Thank you from a 23-year-old "boy". It's because of you I could still feel like a kid and love every second of it.

after getting home from watching it...i got to say, if you didn't at LEAST have to fight off tears for those last 15minutes YOU DO NOT HAVE A SOUL. GOD that was great...i cried manly 20 year old tears for that last part.
I've never cried so much in the theater. Pixar...I'll always love you. Your characters and the characters I've met elsewhere in my life are my Woody and Buzz. I'll always cherish the memories that I have with you, and may you inspire the children of generations to come.
To infinity and beyond.

The best part, IMO, was the total subversion of the old "villain has chance at redemption, considers evil, chooses redemption" trope. And yes, the last scene made me cry a little.
Wow, I don't think I can disagree with this review any more. Personally, I found the story to be meh. It really is just Andy going to college, and could've been told in about 20 minutes with over an hour of filler in the middle. And not even good filler. It feels like really crappy Pokemon fillers that really cater to little 4 year old kids with really corny jokes and cheesy execution.
The whole alien toy saving the world thing was probably the most predictable part in my recent memory. The movie had the scene all set up for some really really epic save, but it ended up being THAT stupid most obvious, idiotic solution.
This movie would've been GREAT if I was 5, but I'm not. Everything about the movie was just way too corny. The only good part is the last 10 minutes and maybe the first 10 minutes. The rest of the movie are easily forgettable. But of course, that's just my opinion. Maybe the bar was just too high. I felt that this is by far and away the worst Pixar film ever. It feels like a generic Dreamworks film.
PS. To people who haven't seen the movie yet, don't watch it in 3D. It's not worth the extra cash.

I don't think he chose redemption. He chose to be evil in the end in the most eye rolling "are you serious" moment in predictable cinema.FaceFaceFace said:

Hey guys, first post after a few years of lurking, creating acounts but not using them and some more lurking. Anyway, just had to sign up (again), because nobody else had mentioned THIS yet:

Don't fret young one, for embedding videos into your posts is something you will learn through time.Bacterial-Ash said:

Time has passed, and you have learned. Easy, see?
Just to clarify, FFF's point was that the villain "subverted" the trope. Whereas most movies would have the villain choose redemption, he chose to stay evil in TS3 like you observed. FFF was saying that he chose evil, not redemption.ThisNewGuy said:
Amazing movie. Yeah, I grew up with Toy Story, being 17 now like Andy, going to college, and saw it with a bunch of friends. We were all choking back tears at the end. It also had some hilarious bits, but yeah. Best movie I've seen in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time, easy.
