The toys simply look at each other, hold hands and close their eyes as they await the inevitable together. As the garbage drifts towards the incinerator, Jessie turns to Buzz and asks him what to do. The tone now takes a sudden turn from the exciting to the emotional. The coming-of-age themes are resonant and moving, but Toy Story 3 goes one step further that that in its most remarkable, memorable scene.Īfter an energetic, imaginative and very funny extended rescue sequence and unintended escape in a dumpster, the toys find themselves in an incinerator due to the fiendish non-interference of the bitter Lots-O'-Huggin Bear. Indeed, I've often said anyone under college-going age is unlikely to be quite so moved by TS3. ![]() Parallels between Andy and the viewers aren't subtle: they're the very foundation of the film, relying on the accurate assumption that many viewers here will have boxes of ignored toys of their own. The core narrative of Toy Story 3 acknowledges Andy growing up and going to college, and his long-ignored toys struggling to find meaning in a newly dusty life. Odds are Slinky Dog (actor Jim Varney died a year after Toy Story 2 was released) would have been excluded had his springy nature not have been such a convenient tool to get the characters out of the various jams they find themselves in. The cast & crew who made the first film are no spring chickens either - in a casual but affecting touch, TS3 briefly acknowledges the absent Bo-Peep and Weezy the Penguin, whose voice actors had passed away in the lengthy gap between films. ![]() Like myself, the people who watched Toy Story as kids have grown up. Because, in an all-too-rare move, Toy Story 3 acknowledges something peculiarly mature for a modern day Disney film: that time has moved on. In the hands of Pixar, however, this second sequel emerged as a uniquely worthwhile endeavour, and inadvertently created one of cinema's finest trilogies in the process. Such a move would usually stink of a cynical moneymaking maneuver. But after a decade long gap, another TS sequel was unleashed. One may have thought one brilliant sequel was enough. ![]() And the terrific sequel built upon the themes and ideas of the first to propel it into the rather empty echelons of sequels that either equal or improve upon the successes of the first. Personally, having seen the first at a very suggestible age of eight, the mere mention of Toy Story elicits a very unique level of nostalgia. Two delightful prequels had introduced us to the colourful cast of plastic cowboys, pigs, dinosaurs, potatoes and space rangers. What differentiates Toy Story 3 from Up is our familiarity with the characters. But Pixar in their infinite wisdom decided to kick us while we were down with Toy Story 3. One may have assumed enough tears had been jerked. Rarely has a film being so emotionally affecting in such a short space of time. There was barely a dry eye in picture houses around the globe during the heartbreaking montage that introduced us to our elderly protagonist Carl and his wife Ellie in Up. Over the course of two films - Up and Toy Story 3 - they made two surprisingly profound reflections on mortality and 'growing up'. The folks over at Pixar must be getting slightly existentialist as they grow older.
