Not sure if a thread has already been created elsewhere…
wow! saying pixar did it again became cliché 10 years ago. But this movie was just amazing. I saw it in IMAX 3D, which was incredible, the animation was beautiful, the voices were great, and the writing… well its the best writing hollywood has ever seen… ? who knows.
thoughts? thoughts on the pixar story?
the short at the beginning was fantastic too:-)
loved this movie experience
Yes, they did deliver again. They were able to put a fresh spin on the same story, yet again. It was emotional at the end and if this is really the end I am very happy with it. If the $$$ monster demands they keep going then it will take away from what this story has been. Highly recommended for all.
The short was basically the worst thing I have ever seen before. I almost walked out and I never feel that way. I imagine it’s what going crazy feels like. It was an Epic Fail on every level. It wasn’t creative, said nothing dynamic and ended up leaving you frustrated. When you have to take a break during your show to try and explain what your purpose is, then you have failed. Not only was it condescending, it was racist (FYI-As Colbert I don’t see color so this is what others have said ;)).
I Just got back from the movie. I loved it. I laughed. I nearly balled at the end. It was a great sendoff to the series. I saw it in 3D but i really don’t think 3D did anything special for the movie other than adding depth of field. So if you have the option I would recommend saving the cash and just seeing it in regular 2D
The Short at the beginning looked beautiful but it was my least favorite of all the Pixar Shots.
Toy Story: Best trilogy ever.
I, unlike some, did not tear up or get all weepy at the end; it was a very bad day for allergens, ahem, and that affected my eyes. I mean, I had something in my eye. Both my eyes.
Almost forgot - Totoro was the bomb yo! 
I just saw it today with my wife and daughters. I thot it was amazing as well. When Mr. Potato head used the flat bread, I couldn’t stop laughing. Spanish Buzz was hilarious.
[spoiler]When they were about to fall into the fire and held hands, I was a blubbering mess. That was frakkin beautiful, man! Saved by the Claw! Priceless. Well, maybe not. Frakkin $16 a ticket! Dang.[/spoiler]
I saw it twice, once with my friends and husband and once with the eleven year old kid I’m mentoring. I think I cried more the second time. She loved it, and was kind of floored when I told her that I was her age when the FIRST one came out.
I think this is the movie that you’d get the most out of if you ever dug through your closet and stumbled over a toy or two and realized “Holy frak, I haven’t played with this in years.” I blame this series and Jim Henson’s “The Christmas Toy” for me having a bunch of toys in my closet that I can’t bring myself to part with!
Also, I think I busted something laughing at Mr. Tortilla-head.
There was something about the way they animated that sequence that made me burst my spleen. He looked like a drunk old-style Bugs Bunny, wobbling and fluid all over the place. Glad someone else found it hilarious.
I actually went into it expecting it to be about the worst Pixar movie ever, simply because I didn’t see the need for a second sequel after Toy Story 2. Boy, was I wrong! Mind you, I didn’t bawl, nor did I think it topped “Up” (which, in my mind, is the best film Pixar has yet made), but it WAS beautiful. I did find the whole [spoiler] “descent into hell” sequence at the garbage dump, when they just give up and accept their fate (made me think of Adama in “Exodus Part II” actually) just harrowing and I wondered how my eight year old was taking it (she took it well, though she was holding up to The Mrs.’ arm pretty hard).[/spoiler]
I did like the short a lot. It wasn’t as hilarious as some others (“One Man Band” is still my favorite), but it was adorable and I loved the (apparent) mix of hand drawn and computer animation.
In a Pixar scale of quality, where “Cars” is the worst and “Up” is the best, I’d give it a Ratatouie, or maybe a Wall-E. 
I thought this one was better than # 2, actually. I loved Spanish Buzz Lightyear! That was so funny. I did not expect to tear up at the end, but found myself scrambling for a tissue several times at the end of the movie. I thought it was a great way to end the series. I also really liked the short at the beginning- it was different from other ones Pixar has done before, but I enjoyed it.
Spanish Buzz and Mr. Tortilla head were both so funny that I started to hurt from laughing so hard. I saw it with 4 other mid-20s women who had seen the original in grade school and loved it–we all loved the third one, too. It felt like a sequel that truly deserved to be made.
And, to your spoilers, I also cried. I cried like I cried the first time my mom read me The Velveteen Rabbit.
On the Pixar Scale that Armando posits, I’d put Toy Story 3 between Ratatouille and Wall-E. Then, of course, Up! at the top.
I really liked the short at the beginning. We saw it in 2-D and I really wanted to sneak into a 3-D showing to check it out as it was meant to be seen. I thought the idea and style were both so original. What did people not like about it?
