Toy Story ends what I guess we have to call the 'Andy Trilogy' with a class-conscious battle for survival. The villain/s works well but Buzz Lightyear is wasted as a character.

This one is kind of mixed for most people, but I love this one the most I think. Lotso was a great villain and the idea of daycare toys was a really interesting concept for these films. I wasn't sure I could like another kid the way I liked Andy, but Bonnie really grew on me and by the end of the film, it seemed that everyone had reached the end of their character arcs and it just made sense to wrap things up the way it did. However, the 4th movie kind of ruins everything about that.

Toy Story 3 was a film no one expected or asked to be made, but the gorgeous visuals and emotionally bittersweet writing more than justified its existence and made it one of the most iconic Pixar films ever made. Toy Story 3 ultimately wasn't the finale to the franchise, but it's still the best ending to the original era of the franchise a person could have asked for.

I wish I loved the Toy Story franchise as much as others do. Still, Toy Story 3 is a good time that could have (and probably should have) been a satisfying end to the series. Surprisingly dark at times for Pixar film. Love how it feels like a prison film for most of its runtime.

While I do appreciate how strong the play with nostalgia is for Toy Story 3, I don't ultimately think it holds up to the first two. Don't like the villain in this one, and the journey feels less tight. The first two are great though!

One of the best Toy Story movies in my opinion! Lotso is a phenomenal villain and watching the toys' time in the daycare was entertaining. It was heartbreaking to see Andy head off to college and leave his toys behind, but a necessary part of life and I'm glad the toys found a new loving home at the end. After following the toys for three movies, this felt like the happy ending they deserved (and perhaps Toy Story 4, although fun, was not a necessary addition to the franchise, I think this could have been a fantastic goodbye to the series because it wraps up the story nicely).

It's extremely rare that a franchise can hold up by the third film of a trilogy, but Toy Story 3 may be the franchise's strongest film. Sure it lacks the nostalgia and a bit of the charm of the first one, but I think the decision to age Andy up and delve into a toy's purpose in life was incredibly smart. Especially since I was aging out of my own toys when this movie first premiered, I felt a particularly strong connection to the concept of letting go.
