![]() But hey, what can you expect from a movie named "Toy Story 3," especially with the humans mostly offstage? I expect its target audience will love it, and at the box office, it may take right up where " How to Train Your Dragon" left off. This is a jolly, slapstick comedy, lacking the almost eerie humanity that infused the earlier “Toy Story” sagas, and happier with action and jokes than with characters and emotions. There is a happy ending, of course, but I suspect these toys may be traumatized for eternity. You have no idea what garbage has to go through before becoming landfill, and even an Indiana Jones toy would have trouble surviving the rotating blades. With 17-year-old Andy ready to leave the nest and spread his wings after the events of Toy Story 2 (1999), Woody and the toy gang sense the time for hard goodbyes is just around the corner.At least, living in the attic is better than nothing. ![]() ![]() Man, the toys have a dangerous time of it after they eventually find themselves at a garbage collection center. Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Ned Beatty, Don Rickles, Michael Keaton, John Morris, Jodi Benson, Timothy Dalton. Potato Head must be old hands at such situations, because children spend most of their time attaching his body parts in the wrong way, like malpracticing little Dr. Potato Head lost an ear, would it continue to hear, or if he lost a mouth, would it continue to eat without a body? These are not academic questions at one point, Mister becomes an uncooked taco shell. This raises intriguing physiological questions, such as, if Mr. Potato Head ( Estelle Harris), whose missing eye continues to see independently of her head. If you ask me, Barbie ( Jodi Benson) is anorexic, and Ken ( Michael Keaton) is gay, but nobody in the movie knows this, so I'm just sayin'.īuzz Lightyear ( Tim Allen) is back, still in hapless hero mode, but after a reboot, he starts speaking Spanish and that leads to some funny stuff. ![]() They pick up, however, some additions to their little band, including a Ken doll with an extensive wardrobe. There seems to be relatively little grieving about the loss of Andy's affections he did, after all, sentence them to a toy box for years, and toys by nature are self-centered and want to be played with.ĭay care seems like a happy choice, until a dark underside of its toy society emerges in the person of an ominously hug-prone bear named Lotso ( Ned Beatty). Unkrich said his editorial crew put it together as a joke, adding that viewers wouldn’t have seen the toys go all the way into. He confirmed that there was a version of the film in which the toys didn’t make it. All of this content belongs to the rightful owners that is the companies of Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Pictures. What with one thing and another, the other toys find themselves at the day-care center, which they think they'll like, because there will be plenty of kids to play with them all day long. We couldn’t just leave it at that, so we also posed the question to Lee Unkrich, director of Coco and Toy Story 3. ![]()
