Toy Story 3


" Let's face it when the trash bags come out we army men are the first to go."


It was time again for the untouchable Pixar Studios to make us all go to the theatre and pay absorb ant prices to watch absolutely wonderful characters. I am always wary of sequels or in this case the third. Pixar though has done it again. They have proved that they can pull out their old stuff give it a new shine and make us all fall in love again. I took my two sons to see this. I knew that they would both stay seated to see Buzz and Woody more so than some other movie characters. Usually by the last 30 minutes Seth is wandering up and down the rows, but not this time. He even sat through the credits.

In the final instalment of the series. Buzz and Woody get ready for the next stage of life. College. They don't worry about the usual stuff we worry about college. They worry about what will happen to them. In the film they get sent to Sunnyside Daycare to donated. Not all is well there and as the story begins they must do all they can to escape and get back home to Andy.

In Toy Story 3 we get introduced to a few new characters. Latso a bear who runs the daycare, Ken (of barbie and ken), Trixie the triceratops and a few others. It was sad to say, but the most exciting point for me was when Woody ended up back in a little girls room and we meet here toys and you see a few time a stuffed Totoro. I reach over to my oldest and ask who that was and his eyes lit up too. It was not surprising to see him since Pixar and Studio Ghibli work together.

I won't spend more time talking about this film not wanting to give any of the movie away. Just be known that the jokes are there, the characters are fantastic and it does get a bit dusty in the room at the end. I think Andy sums the trilogy up for me when he looks at his toys and says "Thanks Guys."
