just saw this today. it was WONDERFUL!!!

Yea,I saw it the second day it came out.
After the movie,just a ROAR of clapping.

for me evryone was clapping when the martians saved the toys.

Really? Shite. That sounds annoying.
Where I'm from, people are quiet throuout the whole thing.
Except for laughs and and gasps every now and then. And those aren't controllable.

I would prefer your type of audience as well.

And everyone just thought Mr. Potato Head saved them for the annoyance factor.

[color=green]"< Great review as always, Chester! I just saw the movie the other day. If anyone wants to see a review without the spoilers, check out mine:

Let me see if I can rustle up a few coins for Mr. Bum now. >"[/color]

FAMILY GUY REFERENCE-IMATURE!!! *points dramatically*

"We got girls!" :D That should totally have been in there!

'F' THAT BEAR

Your view was definitely spot on. Toy Story 3 was indeed great, but there are definitely parts that would make you do the, ahem, Sexy Cry.

And plus points for including

Hey, Qauntum, looks like someones been watching too much Shane Dawson! :evil:

I saw this opening night, I loved it. I think that it's on par with the other two Toy Story movies and is one of Pixar's overall best. I also think that this is one of the best Bum Reviews.

i was waiting all weekend for this. seeing the midnight showing with my two best friends brought back all of my childhood. we grew up with the movies and all three of us (one guy and two girls) were crying our eyes out throughout the movie. (not that it takes alot for this girl to cry)

Man I had a feeling you were going to do a Family Guy reference after Seth "stole" your Star Trek joke....that was nice of you to do that in return for Seth knowing your work.

Aside from that, I'm kinda surprised that you say Toy Story 3 was "dramatic". Uh, okay. I suppose that's one clue as to why Roger Ebert rated Toy Story 3 three stars while Philips and Scott from At The Movies say "See it" (with Philips less fun than Scott had a lot). Nevertheless though, I'm planning to see Toy Story 3 eventually. Great review Doug.

I absolutely LOVED Toy Story 3!! I love how when I saw it with my girlfriend, the demographic was largely 20 somethings, since it was OUR big movies when we were kids. Certainly, they didn't disappoint, making it one of the darkest films Pixar has ever done.

Also, pretty hilarious review. "I got played with once! ......." :D

I love this movie! I cried so hard at the end!

One of my favorite movies. EVAR.

Just saw this movie n man, it was fantastic. It was so silent at the ending that I heard many people sobbing, including myself.

[quote=Terminator_Girl] Just saw this movie n man, it was fantastic. It was so silent at the ending that I heard many people sobbing, including myself.[/quote]

I was THIS close to breaking at the end. There were a lot of moments, but just...the ending. Just the ending.

That is where I feel the strength of Toy Story 3 lies; Pixar definitely made it in mind that this movie is as much as for those who grew up watching the first two as much as little kids.

I thought Glenn Beck was on mentally disturbed mode...

You win now and forever for this one statement. Thank you.

Can we just take the batteries out? >.>

and then a WOODY COMES!...... What? :evil:

did anyone elce catch that when the doll asked woodys name she said "r u shure that u want to keep that name?" it was funny that they would put that in a kids movie!!!

I caught that too! It became my favorite joke of the entire movie.

I thought you liked really dramatic kids movies, your favorite kids movie being The Secret of NIMH.

But the Secret on Nimh wasn't built on such a relatively light-hearted foundation as Toy Story. Secret of Nimh is told in a dark tone that's largely consistent through the film. When Toy Story tries to confront mortality and facism, it just felt like out of place drama.

I don't know. The first Toy Story was pretty fucked up, from what I remember. I mean, didn't involve a neighborhood kid essentially torturing toys and turning them into these weird mutant looking things?

Man, i remember being scared shitless of that kid.

Um, I don't think it was trying to confront those things at all. It was a plot point. I mean, sure, you can look at it that way, but I don't think that was the intention.

When you think about it, the first two were pretty dramatic, too. The first had Buzz with an identity crisis and Woody with an inferiority complex and feeling replaced... And Sid... the second had Jesse feeling abandoned... oh, God, when they did that montage with that Sarah McLachlan song... that was intense.

So yeah, this one had a darker tone throughout, but they were all pretty serious when you get right down to it.

I think that's why they're so good. Pixar doesn't dumb their movies down because they're for kids. Actually, they don't really think of an age group for their movies. They create such strong plots and characterization, and that's what's most important for any story. Seriously, the Toy Story characters are some of the most well developed characters I've seen in cinema, animated or otherwise. They're so realistic and sympathetic. I liked the first Toy Story when I was little, but I enjoyed it more when I got older because I could appreciate things like that better.

Anyway, I didn't get as choked up as I'd hoped I would. I teared up a little at the end, but... the second one REALLY got to me, and I was expecting more of that. It was great, but the second is still my favorite, followed by the first.

okay, after watching this, it's official: i will be the only person in the world who doesn't cry at this movie.

seriously, i don't cry at movies. i didn't cry at "brian's song", and if you don't cry during that, you have no soul.

Well, actually you are not the only one, well I was pretty close but I didn't break. Toy Story 3 was great. I was smiling almost the whole movie.

I loved Toy Story 3, it surprisingly after 11 years of development hell and limbo beat every expectation it had, and it made me cry. That ending was just.... :( In fact only three movies made me cry, Donnie Darko, Up, and Toy Story 3, weird how two of those are Pixar movies. :P

im a guy, but i cried towards the end...... come on those last scenes really touch youre heart, dont they?

I saw this movie a few days ago and I agree with almost everyone, if not everyone, here. The movie was astoundingly good, not that I was expecting any less from Pixar. I'll be the first to admit I teared up quite a bit at the end.

I liked this Bum Review a lot. While the whole thing was pretty funny, I think my favorite part was the little Spanish guitar riff you had in there. Great job. :)

I didn't full on cry but I did come pretty close, espeically that scene at the incernator, which yeah was pretty dark but that was some damn good drama. I don't think it's out of place though. Toy Story 2 also had some dark spots (as you noted in coolest cliches with Jesse's sad backstory) and hey it really shows how much we care about the characters. Which ultimatley helps make it an outstanding movie. As well as a great Bum review espeically the parts mentioning Glenn Beck, Andy's mid life crisis and college.

To Doug: I know you normally don't do this but do you pleaseeeeeeeee think you could do a Bum review for The Last Airbender and Twilight: Eclipse? Since hey if you aren't into Avatar the Last Airbender even after Mako's sad death maybe the movie will change your mind. You don't have to (obviously) but I just think it'd make for a good review. Still I'm sure you're at least going to do Twilight: Eclipse since you already did a review for the other two movies and those are always good.

Twiligh: Eclipse...

Edward: I'm still an an emotionless void.

Jacob: I'm still the best written character here. Sadly, that's like winning gold in curling.

Bella:Um...(stares at Edward)

Edward:(Stares in general direction of Bella)

Bella: Still love him...

Volturi: We're still here...DUN DUN DUN!

Fin

I'm betting Doug will most likely do those reviews. He always does the biggest movie of the weekend, and those are definitely going to be high contenders. Besides, the poor guy's suffered (and undoubtedly cackled) through Twilight and New Moon, what's one more round of Pretentious-girl and Pussy-pire? lulz X3

Though I can't imagine what the review (or even the movie itself) of Breaking Dawn will be like. If you know anything about the book, you'd know that if they really wanted to be true to the book in the movie they'd need to make it rated NC-17.

I imagine Chester just standing with a deer-in-headlights look on his face :0

Wow the oil in Lorenzo's Oil huh? That was a pretty sad movie.

very funny, excellent review

I loved it! (both the movie and the review)
I thought this was the best of the three... in fact they seem to get better each time... Toy Story 4?! Nah... I hope they stop now before it gets obnoxious...

Best thing in the movie was totally the TOTORO!!!!!!!! He was sooooo cute!!!! (I, like John Lasseter, really like Totoro)
So it was great to see him even though he had no lines (he's not a big talker anyway)

Yeah... I gotta say I really liked it.

The only movie I've ever cryed at is Up. Seriously, 5 minutes in and my face was totally wet. I mean, they killed off a character that was meaningful to me in only 5 MINUTES! Toy Story 3 ALMOST got me at the incinerator part, had it not been for the aliens from Pizza Planet. Really, they kinda ruined the moment, but I wouldn't be able to bear the toys dieing without me crying.
You got me once, Pixar, but your not getting me again!

For me the aliens and THE CLAAAAW seemed like extreme shameless deus ex machina...but, then, I doubt the writers would've let everyone burn alive. I still thought it was a very touching, gripping moment, though.

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm even more exited now! D:

Same here, but more for me at the ending. Aside from that I loved it.
Another classic by Pixar.

Amen. Watching Woody and Co. heading towards the incinerator wasn't all that gut wrenching, you'd think one of them would have an idea on how to get out of that predictament. That is, until Buzz turned to Jessie with that look of dismay. Pixar has definitely gotten darker over the years, and this was probably their darkest stunt yet. I almost leaked when all of them linked hands and waited for their doom. The other part I almost cried at was the ending. Brought back soooooooo many memories.
Curse you Pixar for tugging at my heartstrings with this masterpiece!!! Definitely my favorite Pixar film now.

I was sucked into the drama in that scene upon seeing the movie too. Looking back though, I find it more and more unsettling and out of place... I had to watch like...3 comedy central presents to get Buzz's "Time to give up and accept doom" stare O.o

I imagine that in 30 years Pixar's movies will be sadder and more depressing than the death of Bambi's mother...minus the cheery singing that follows that scene...

wow i never cried at all. the ending was bitter sweet but felt like a true ending. The incinerator was dark for a pixar film and filled me with a sense of dread. But the main villain made me laugh with his little toy mafia

All things considered, this is the greatest movie I've ever seen in my life.

I saw this movie twice in two days (11:15pm on opening day, and then the next night) and I cried the first time.. DAMN THAT ENDING.. DAMN YOU ANDY FOR MAKING ME CRY!! I haven't cried in movies in forever and then of all things TOY STORY MAKES ME CRY?! AUGH!

But seriously, this movie had EVERYTHING in it and that's why I loved it so much. And I really hope, for those who haven't seen it yet, that your theatre isn't full of douchey 13 year olds because mine was on the saturday and my friend flipped out on them halfway through the movie.. they really can ruin the experience.

Oh, and spanish Buzz is freaking amazing... that is all
:cheer:

I'm 13 and I grew up with the Toy Story films and Toy Story 3 is my new favorite movie. The credits rocked as well. I love the movie and the Bum review. :D

Haha! This was an amazing review! The innuendo was all coming, but that never once made it any less hilarious. : )

I loved this movie! I think I'll see it a fourth time on Saturday. ; )
