oy Story 3

Grandsons favorite movie they could watch everyday.

Good Show

My 2 yr old great grandson loves anything Buzz! So we have watched it all weekend😊

After pouring over many very well written praises about Toy Story 3 I won't add too much to what's already been said. However, for me this trilogy and magnificence of Pixar creations, which I believe was spawned (as a company) by John Lasseter, has to be the greatest of them all. Well, everything Pixar creates is great and over the top. We all have our favorites and I believe citing one is not to slight the other. It's simply what's inside each of us that harmonizes with the storyline and that's what makes some films to some people more noteworthy than others. Still, I find this trilogy absolutely incredible in every way, shape and form. You have to also understand I was never one to like or enjoy watching animation, anything, then or now. I'm about 65 years of age and I believe it was some 15 years ago when a friend of mine insisted I go to the movies and see Toy Story, the first installment. At first, I was reluctant to go, but he and his wife talked me into it. It was the best talking into I ever had. Strangely, she didn't like the movie and walked out earlier. Her husband and I sat and watched the movie and I just couldn't believe my eyes or ears what showed and sounded on that big silver screen. In time, I saw Toy Story 2, and just last evening I finally got to watch the final installment of this peerless trilogy of movies. It also finally kicked in that here was a narrative much like the previous two focusing on, not only childhood and fraternity, especially the loyalty among the toy members to their master playmate, Andy, but also epic moral lessons pivoting around humanity's light. These stories all show and share this main trait, this overcoming whatever needs to be triumphed over, and for the sake of loyalty, love and friendship, and an abiding sense of humanity's spirit. These films just make you feel proud to be among our genus; happy to find a way out of the usual darkness of our lives, the politics and warfare, the brute and brunt force of society in general. And for a little while there is a saga worth plugging into, sometimes the iffiness of life that Woody and the crew must unite together and somehow get through. Toy Story, this last and final installment, certainly stacks the odds against all of them, yet we are so grateful that every loose end ties up, and all the characters get to live on, even that slick strawberry-smelling bear, but not quite to his liking. I mean, how he ended up. Of course, no one gets to be and play a cowboy forever, or so goes the famous line in "Monte Walsh." And Andy has grown up and has to put his toys away, though not his inner child. This movie is so touching in so many ways, so healing, that I just felt myself turning back inside and meeting head on that inner child of mine, the feelings somewhat mixed, though a blessing. Thank you, Pixar, and all your wonderful and peerless creative people who make these films. You are sine qua non. The humanity of these stores is the right prescription for the illness of today's world. These stories are a beacon of light and life for those who desperately need it, and I am one such. I'll continue being a fan and follower and purchaser of your products. Meanwhile, the Toy Story saga will live within me, as will the likes of Wall-E, Up, Cars, Nemo, and all the rest.

My first son was just 2 1/2 years old when I got him the Toy Story / Toy Story 2 combo pack. I know this for sure because at the top of the Amazon Toy Story / Toy Story 2 combo pack product page it says, "You purchased this item on November 28, 2001." Wow...how time flies.So it was to my surprise that when my son, now 11, stayed home from school with a cold earlier this year, I found him watching Toy Story. He had just put the DVD in the player, so I sat with him for a second before I headed off to work. Then the second turned into a few minutes; then a few minutes turned into a nostalgic hour; which of course turned into, "What a great, classic movie, Dad; Let's watch Toy Story 2!" So I obliged. (I hope my boss isn't reading this.)I'd forgotten what classics Toy Story and Toy Story 2 are. And it turns out that Toy Story 3 is just as classic as the first two. Not only do these movies deserve just a viewing, they deserve to be added to your movie collection. Watched the Blu Ray version last night with the entire family, and had to buy the standard DVD today, because my 7 year old daughter insisted that she needs to be able to watch the movie several times...but "upstairs" where i don't have a Blu Ray player set up. No problem. I may be biased because of the strong emotional attachment that I found that I had and have renewed with these movies, but I say that all three Toy Story movies truly are collectors' items.While watching Toy Story 3 last night, just as when I watched the first two again earlier this year, I was laughing out loud, holding in the sobs and just plain enjoying perhaps the best animated movies ever to come out of Disney.The first is about Andy's (6 - 8 years old?) toys and what happens when Andy introduces his new Buzz Lightyear to the group of toys that he grew up with. But the toys better be sure to stay out of the hands of Andy's next door neighbor Sid, because Sid's idea of fun is toy torture! Then in Toy Story 2 it's spring cleanup time, and the toys better hide if they don't want to end up in the yard sale; especially if you're a rare toy and there are greedy toy collectors that would just love to have...er..I mean...sell you. Finally in Toy Story 3 Andy is all grown up and the Toys have to deal with wondering if Andy will take them to college (a bad bet), keep them in his room (probably not or....Donate them or....Throw them out in the trash?!?Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are once again magic together in Toy Story 3 and they are joined by a cast of many many A-list voice talents...Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head is my favorite (ya hockey puck!).And one more note, if you've ever seen the Buzz Lightyear  Disney Channel spinoff  but not the movies, don't be dissuaded by the spinoff because it was silly in comparison; the movies are head and shoulders above the spinoff in acting, animation and storywise.I'd grab the whole collection and see Toy Story 1 & 2 before 3 if you haven't already...it really puts things in perspective to watch it chronologically. Either way, get it into your cart then enjoy...with or without some kids!

Meds, popcorn, cuddle on couch

fast shipper great product

The end of an era (until they decided to make Toy Story 4!). TS3 is simply superb. Pixar have always been at the front of animation and they prove it time and again, and TS3 is no exception.It is funny and engaging for both kids and adults alike, (really we're all kids when we watch Toy Story). It has everything, thrills, spills, drama, comedy, and tragedy.Keep an eye out for easter eggs here and there, harping back to the earlier Toy Story films.This is one of my favourite all time animation films, 10/10

This brings out everyone's inner child. Never want it to end. Absolutely love this series. Toy story 2 In my opinion is better than the original as the characters develop more and completely just want their owner to love them for ever!! Just like real life I suppose...

had 1 and 2 so got 3. I'm old enough to remember the first toy story in the cinema and this 3rd film doesn't hold the same atmosphere as the first and even the seccond do. But for young children who don't have nostalgic memories, this (and i quote) 'is the good one'. Will entrance little ones to the very end. Grown ups will like it too.

Often with films by the time you get beyond the 2nd episode plots are thinner than sellotape and the magic lost..Not so with Toy Story 3, everything required for a great film can be found here. Yet another masterpiece of animation suitable for children of all ages between 5 and 100+..!!! Recommended..

Really enjoyed this film and in my opinion it's one of the best, if not -the- best in the series. Bought the triple play version so I can have a digital copy but be warned, this can only be used in itunes and windows media player which means many other media playing software packages can't use the digital file. The extra special features on the blue-ray disc is well worth paying the extra money.
