There’s also a DVD and digital copy, as has become standard with all major Disney releases.
Opening to toy story 3 2010 dvd movie#
Disc One doesn’t contain much in the way of extras, but you will find the “Day & Night” short that played before the movie in theaters, an educational short about space called “Buzz Lightyear Mission Logs: The Science of Adventure,” and a brief featurette about re-animating the old characters and designing the new ones for the film. “Toy Story 3” is no exception, and the Blu-ray release is positively overflowing with bonus material. There are a number of reasons to love Pixar, and one of them is that they put as much work into their home video releases as the films themselves. The characters have always shown their feelings, but this time around, they show heart, and it makes for the most emotionally satisfying “Toy Story” of the bunch. What makes “Toy Story 3” so special is its humanity. It isn’t big or fancy, but rather the sweetest, most heartfelt moment in any Pixar film to date, with a reaction shot that will elicit the exact same response from the audience as it does from the character on screen. Potato Head must have been a technical nightmare, but the scene that will have people talking is the ending.
(It will also likely terrify small children, so parents, please exercise caution.) The hilarious scene involving a re-appropriated Mr. Visually, this is the biggest movie Pixar has ever made, particularly the climactic scene at the junkyard that features one of the most quietly touching moments in Pixar history.
However, their execution of these devices is much different this time around – the plot doesn’t revolve around the other toys not believing Woody, like it did in the first “Toy Story” – so the sense of déjà vu is fleeting. (No heartbreaking song from Sarah McLachlan, though.) And once again, Woody tells the truth, and the other toys don’t believe him. Here, they have to get back before Andy goes off to school, with the Cowgirl Jesse subplot from “Toy Story 2” brought back in the form of the bitter Lotso. In “Toy Story,” Woody and Buzz had to get back home before Andy moved away. Once he realizes what his friends are up against, he decides to break back into Sunnyside and get them all back to Andy’s house before he leaves for school.Īs you can see, similarities to the first two “Toy Story” movies are unavoidable. Woody is able to escape with a child who attends Sunnyside before learning the ugly truth from the child’s other toys. On the surface Sunnyside looks like all the answers to their fears of being thrown away or stuffed in a box, but what Andy’s toys don’t realize is that Sunnyside is a toy prison, and Lotso is the warden, safely ensconced at the top of the kiddie food chain. Andy decides to take Woody to school with him while storing the others in the attic, but a mix-up sends all of them to Sunnyside Day Care Center, where they are met with open arms by Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear (Ned Beatty). If you thought the ‘married life’ sequence in “ Up” was a tearjerker, bring a box of tissues to this one.Īndy, the owner of Woody ( Tom Hanks) and Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), is headed off to college. Fortunately, it’s a highly entertaining lap, with an ending that will reduce every parent in the audience to tears. Admittedly, there are aspects of “Toy Story 3” that will recall the first two installments, and in the end the movie is a farewell lap around the track of sorts.
There are only so many ways you can tell that tale, so it is to the great credit to the writers of Pixar’s “Toy Story” movies that they have been able to make so much out of such a limited premise. Although Anna was able to bring out Elsa from her self-imposed exile, Frozen 2 will explore how strong that bond is as Elsa journeys into the unknown to discover the voice that has been calling out to her.Ĭheck out more on how the themes of sisterhood relate to fairy tales, myths, and more below.Oys get lost, toys overcome tremendous odds to find way home without letting on to humans that toys can move and talk on their own. The theme of sisterhood played a huge role in the first Frozen, as it took a look at the bonds between the two. Now we are ready to share another piece with you, which takes a look at the bond of sisterhood that is shared between Anna ( Kristen Bell) and Elsa ( Idina Menzel). We already shared what we learned in terms of what to expect to see in the sequel, along with the new characters and the new worlds that they will meet and see, and what exactly goes into a ballad like “Into the Unknown.” A few months ago, Geeks of Doom joined fellow journalists on a trip through Walt Disney Animation Studios in Burbank, CA to get a sneak peek at their upcoming and highly anticipated animated feature Frozen 2.
