How in the world are they going to make this sadder than 3?


The ending to Toy Story 3 really punched me in the gut emotionally. I have no idea how they can top it, other than to kill off Woody and/or Buzz.

I think you may of just answered your own question.

Why should it be sadder? TS3 is the worst one for me. This series doesn't feel right being overly 'sad' or adding death. That's too much realism that just feels forced.

reply

The second one is still the most poignant for me.

The whole 'When She Loved Me' sequence breaks my heart every time.

reply

That was a very poignant moment very beautifully written and animated, but for me anyway, Andy saying goodbye to Woody was worse. Basically the same situation, but we weren't as heavily invested in Jesse as we were with Woody.

reply

They will make it full SJW. That's gonna make it even sadder than 3. Not sad for the same reasons, but sadder nonetheless.

(And I'm not kidding, Lassetter has been taken down. And he was the soul of Pixar)

reply

Yes...Lasseter was a genius and I hated see him go but I am intrigued by Pete Doctor and what the studio will create under his leadership.

reply

It won't be the same. Lassetter was not only a great director. He was a great team leader and a visionary.

Once he's gone, he's gone. Pixar is done, same as Apple when Jobs died. Disney is killing its assets real quick.

reply

I agree that Lasseter was a real one-off but let's give Doctor a chance at least before we write the studio off.

reply

Let's hope. But guys like Lassetter are very rare. Not to say Docter won't have a fraction of the power Lassetter had.

Old Pixar, Lassetter was the boss. This one, guys in suits will be the ones in command. You just have to see how they've entered the 'sequels' pattern. That policy sure has Disney headquarters behind.

reply

Yes...but Docter has said they are done with sequels after Toy Story 4. That's very promising.

reply

Let's hope.

reply

Believe me...I wish Lasseter was still there but Docter is very talented and it's not like he's gonna turn it into a crap factory like Illumination or DreamWorks.

Oh God another millennial crybaby ..🙄🙄🙄....I hope they do 5 just to piss your generation off more.

reply

It's funny how so many people don't know that Millennial actually means people who grew up in the 80s or 90s who became adults around or a little after 2000. Generation Z is actually those who are teenagers right now.

You thought the ending of the third one was sad???? Honesty I had to try to keep myself from laughing at how lame it was
