I'll likely see it in theaters. My son will want to, but man... I still wish they ended this at 3.

Why?

This doesn't look good. The actors sound tired.

Hopefully it is less nihilistic as the last few, but we'll see.

I think a better tack would have been to explore the nostalgia angle of an older Andy trying to re-collect his OG toys and instill the love of them into his own kids instead of more never aging Bonnie, but what do I know.

Jessie sounds old

Now post the Netflix version...

The whole concept sounds tiring. But its Toy Story, so people are way more willing to give it a chance.

Jessie sounds old

Joan Cusack is 63, Tom Hanks 69, Tim Allen is 73. Toy Story was THIRTY years ago.

Good on them for advancing the narrative and not just remaking the earlier films, I guess.....

Mad how 3 ended with on a note about moving on and growing up. But because of the regression the series is now just part of an endless retread of childhood stuff from years back.

 

[dorkimoe]

ill see it because i like the characters. However 3 was the true end. THe end of 4 was trash and woody would never!

I still feel like the ending of TS3 was the perfect place to stop, but Pixar's animation quality is just on another level here. The concept of toys vs tech is relevant, but I really hope they have a solid reason to bring Woody back without ruining his arc from the last movie.

Some are dead.


Movie is probably fine, but story was done after 3.

It's true, iPads and phones are a blight on children and society

There's a hook with new tech, but is there a story? Lots of snippets in the trailer look very similar to the earlier movies and sounds like it could just be a retread with a slightly different flavour of modern tech.

The idea that J jason10mm touted with Andy doing a nostalgia thing would have been a potentially great approach, given that it's been 30 years since the OG, there's an audience that it would speak to. I literally just got a message from a mate who's dug out his old Transformers and sent me a photo of his Optimus Prime.

Andy could be the late millennial collecting the toys from his childhood and trying to make his little girl like them while she's all about the wondrous tablet her family gifted her.

Anyway. I kinda like the premise and the trailer. But Joan Cusack does sound pretty old and tired here.
