TS3>TS2>TS4>>>>>TS1

 

This is the only right ranking.

i just rewatched the trilogy and TS3 is still the weakest. the last 15 minutes or so does so much of the heavy lifting for a lot of people i think.

Well this is the first toy Story movie that I have liked immensely. I related to the characters I loved the story and I really enjoyed the ending. Maybe I'm just at a point in my life where the themes in the movie resonate a bit more with me. I also really liked the Duke kaboom character so that helped out a lot.

Lmao, but how when you dislike the others??? So many of these themes are retreads of where the franchise has already been. I think you really need to go back and rewatch the sequels if you enjoyed this one lol.

It's in the works, although no officialrelease  date had been announced.

Shooting starts in 2020. Jodi Benson approves.

The last 50 minutes are completely flawless. They have the best heart, comedy, and ingenuity Pixar has ever put to film. I agree that the first 50 mins are a tad weaker than I remembered and compared to 2's first half, though 3's opening is also the best opening of the franchise. Basically it's just the introduction to Sunnyside that drags a little bit.

slow down anthony lane.

Well, maybe this won't be so bad after all (I still have 0 interest but my little brother is going to drag me anyway...)

But I'm worried because I tend to agree with Grace Randolph reviews

I don't think the gulf between 4 and 1 is that big, but yeah, I agree with this.

[jedijake]

The movie was okay. Didn't really provoke any strong feelings one way or another. A lot going on at once and several different plot stories at once but nicely woven. Just a fun movie that isn't really that unlike the other TS films. I still liked Aladdin a lot more.

Baumer liked a Pixar movie? 2019 truly is the moviegoing endtimes.

Speaking of Shrek 2, it's kind of hard to fathom that doing 70m+ admissions and being as massive as it was. It feels so culturally irrelevant today compared to so many other animated classics from the renaissance through today. 

That’s the magic of Disney for you.

 

As much as DreamWorks relished finally beating Walt Disney Animation in the box-office during the 2000’s, they are no match when it comes to Disney’s quality branding/marketing machine that is a master at creating timeless classics.

 

I think DreamWorks got what they deserved (taking the low road with taking cheap shots at Disney movie tropes) with how their entire animated library is more or less culturally irrelevant today.

I agree, and this is what all that heavy lifting did for me:

@Blankments if baumer liked TS4, there’s some hope after all of you enjoying this.

Anecdotal and all but I will say that at the marathon screening yesterday there was all sorts of sniffling going on during the TS3 ending and wet eyes afterwards, vs none to be heard or seen whatsoever for the TS4 ending (though about a quarter of the theater did clap for TS4).

Pretty much imo. Toy Story 3 was a rehash of Toy Story 2 and the ending tried so hard to tug on your heartstrings while this actually took the story to some interesting places and the ending was emotional without feeling overbearing. Also, Gabby Gabby > the Purple Teddy Bear villain.

 

I find it really funny because I was so ready to hate this film (because I wanted no more Toy Story films) but it actually ended up being my second favourite toy story movie.

Gabby Gabby is more likable than the other two villians
