Toy Story 3
Have you seen it yet? i have and i bloody well enjoyed it.
There was a little organisation issue which meant waiting a little longer than expected. I ordered the tickets they day the film came out for "what i thought" was the IMAX 3D. So we rocked up to the reddragon centre on Wednesday (forgetting the orange Wednesday deal, even though i'm with orange) and it was packed !!! anyway i got my ticket from the machine and didnt even check them. They let us in and as we stood half way up the stairs lisa asked me "where's my glasses" to which the alarm bells went off, i wasnt having this.... About turn and back to the ticket man to enquire abou thte IMAX shabang. Did you know there's only 1 IMAX showing of toy story because every film released right now is also in the IMAX (shrek and Inception which looks good). Thus we could only get the 3d film and fair play to the staff they sorted us out.
This meant we had to wait an hour so the popcorn got eaten before we actually sat down. Right the film.....
I've been well into toy story i remember seeing it at a Butlins with my step brothers years and years ago thinking, this is a kids film i'm too cool for this, being about 14 at the time. But i loved it, it brought back memories of driving my tractors around mums plant pots and making massive railways around the house. The characters are superb and for me the best animated film in my locker. Toy Story 2 is better than 1 (for me anyway, except the part when Jessie reminisces about Emily leaving her on the side of the road with the crappy music). Fifteen years have passed since that toy story and landmark film for pixar, the cash cow in the library, fifteen years is a long time and i felt this film was made for us middle to late 20's and 30 +'s as the theme, like all pixar films has an adult level with lots of in jokes. However it's less fluffy that the previous 2 and addresses issues that maybe only the older viewer will fully understand. To get everything in they made it longer and very fast paced which keeps you involved all the way. Its a sweet ride and i recommend you all go see it.
I'm not gonna say anything about the plot because it's good.
