Brilliant.

Absolutely brilliant.

I took the boy. We had a date. It's "our" movie.

You see, my boy is also an "Andy" and over the years, each Toy Story release has coincided with nearly the same exact moment in my Andrew's life. This particular installment is bittersweet for me as Andy is preparing to leave for college...and very soon my sweet Andrew will be doing the same.

So we went together and I cried my way through it...over and over again. It was a beautiful movie...full of all the best things that Pixar does so well. I don't want to give away too much, but it is well worth seeing.

One final note. The short film before the movie? BEST. EVER. Truly and utterly beautiful and sweet. Seriously? Go see the movie JUST so you can see the short. It has an incredible message.

I'm hoping Alysia and I get to see it tomorrow after dinner with dad. The first one came out when she was 5. We went the night it opened, which was the Wed before Thanksgiving. She's in college now.....

We went to see it on Sunday, and I have to agree that this movie was absolutely brilliant. A must-watch for anyone who's seen the other Toy Stories. Though you may want to bring tissue for the ending; it's very touching, though I won't go into any more detail.

Agreed.

Can't wait. Not good with weepies though, I was a wreck in UP

Will it be 3D? It is easier to hide the tears behind those big dark specs:yes:

OMG. I was a HOT MESS during Up!!! Such a beautiful movie though...truly, truly beautiful.

It *is* in 3D, however the boy and I saw it in the regular theater because he was going to see it with his GIRLFRIEND later that evening (SEE WHY I CRIED?!?!)

I asked him how it was in 3D and he said it was good, but he didn't think it really added much to the movie.

Kate

Not worth the extra cost then really eh? Dd wont keep the glasses on anyway!

I'm so jealous about all of you from the USA getting to see it already!!

Britchick
23-06-2010, 08:58 PM
Think I'll not bother with 3d, it annoys me to have the glasses on.

Oh and Lisa I cry every time I see it LOL, don't whatever you do watch remember me!

Johnie

Well I had the day off yesterday and I went to see it.

O.M.G. I don't think I have ever cried so much!! Seriously, the crying where you start to get loud? That was totally me. I was emotionally drained.

Oh no...I don't want to cry at the theater. May have to wait for it to come to dvd.

What a fantastic film :yes: I think it beats Toy Story 2 but nothing can ever top the original toy story!

I loved Ken & Barbie, and I think Buzz had some hilarious moments in this film, it was great to see a humorous side to him. :yes: Ken & Barbie really stole the show :yes:

My fave was "There IS no way out!...... Just kidding.... Doors over there."

Beccaberry
22-07-2010, 11:53 AM
LOL! My favorite was when Mr. Potato Head said, "Tell him to get a haircut" (a long time running joke in my house w/ Andrew...)

Excellent, excellent movie.

I played with the Spanish Buzz in Target the other day...Jon had to literally DRAG me away!

We saw it tuesday - absolutely loved it! Isabelle (who's 3) got a bit upset and started crying at one point, the woman in the seat next to me was sobbing at the end!
We saw it in 2d, to be honest i see no extra benefits to seeing it in 3d, i dont think it would make it any better at all!

Just seen this today. Didn't disappoint. Truly lovely with some excellent new characters. Definitely a bit more grown up than the others. :yes:

I went and visited my Spanish Buzz at Target yesterday....I think Jon may be getting a bit jealous of our relationship... :wink:

Dawn

We saw it today. A lovely way to tie up the story but 3D really didn't add anything to it.

Now, where can I get me a Mr Tortilla Head? :laugh:

Skywatcher
02-08-2010, 07:52 AM
Definitely my best as well :laugh:

Skywatcher

... and I agree, of all the 3D films I've seen this was probably the one I was least aware of the effects of 3D in

Beccaberry
05-08-2010, 01:43 PM
We saw it both ways (3D and Non) and I concur...it didn't really add much to the film.

I've now seen it six times. :wink:

Tink

We are all avoiding Target now, yes? :grouphug: (Politics rears its ugly head). :sorry:

Johnie
05-08-2010, 02:49 PM
What's going on with Target?

Tink
05-08-2010, 02:57 PM
It is one of (if not the) first corporations to take advantage of providing massive contributions to a political candidate. They chose to back an extreme right winger who is opposed to Civil Liberties for the Gay community among other intolerant positions.

Sooooo, no Target for us until they acknowledge that they chose an irresponsible candidate (and hopefully that they'll not contribute to campaigns from here on out).

Tink
05-08-2010, 02:57 PM
Ooops! Weird double post!

Johnie

oh nooooo that is not good. This is what I get for not watching the news.

I didn't think the 3D added anything other than the picture looking a bit 'deeper' :unsure: Not sure it was worth the extra few quid.

Dawn
05-08-2010, 04:07 PM
Ummmm, shouldn't the Target debate be in another thread? Or am I missing something? :unsure:

Tink
05-08-2010, 05:00 PM
It's not a debate, rather a comment related to Target mentioned in this thread. A segue rather than a full derailment.

It provided a way of hiding the tears behind big dark glasses:yes:

I definitely missed the Target reference then. :lol:

Beccaberry
05-08-2010, 05:46 PM
I was commenting on the Spanish Buzz being on display at Target :)

Segue's are fun.

And I'd not heard. Pity that.

And this,
It provided a way of hiding the tears behind big dark glasses is utterly and COMPLETELY true!
