5 phantom stars. I like to go into movies I know I will see anyway as uninformed as possible, so I ain't watching. Through just from the preload you can see how sharp their rendering has gotten in the last decade, damn

It's a little... bizarre, seeing the focus on Andy. It's like Darth Vader without the helmet. And talking and stuff.

Why do I get the feeling I'm going to cry during this movie.

Looks like Tim Allen asked for a raise halfway through.

Hammer Falls - 2009-10-21 Blake Clark is doing Slinky this time around. He was friends with Jim Varney, apparently, so kind of fitting.
According to IMDb, Varney was good friends with Robin Williams... imagine how bad that would be if he replaced him.

the movie no one wanted, from the guys who tried to leave Disney to keep from having to make it

Hammer Falls - 2009-10-21 To back up Xeno...
From IMDb:
In 2004-2005. Disney started up an animation division titled 'Circle 7,' which would have been in charge of churning out sequels for PIXAR films that would not involve the original creators at PIXAR. Entertainment Weekly published an article that said the original plot for Toy Story 3 was going to be about Buzz Lightyear having a defect. Buzz would then be shipped to Taiwan to be fixed, but the other toys find out that the toy company is just replacing the broken Buzz toys with new ones, so they ship themselves to Taiwan to rescue him. This script had to be canned when Pixar and Disney made amends. Part of their agreement was for Disney not to further develop projects that had been planned during their fallout.
One can only imagine what Disney's version of a Taiwan sweatshop would be...

First of all, this looks AWESOME. The Toy Story movies are among my all-time favourites, and I've been waiting for #3 for over ten years. After two movies made with fear-of-abandonment as their premises, I always figured they'd make one in which they finally are abandoned and they just sort of have to deal with it.
Second of all, in reference to Hammer Falls's explanation (thank you for that!), wouldn't that original script've been almost distractingly silly? I mean, when a product is deemed defective, it's RECALLED--it's the new ones, still in their packages, etc., that are taken off of store-shelves, and shipped back to be dealt with by the company that made them. But Andy will have owned Buzz for at least a few years (depending on where in the Toy Story timeline they were originally planning on setting #3). It's not like they'd track down every single owner of every single Buzz, ripping Andy's out of his hands and sending it to Taiwan. Of course, Andy could have made the decision to send him to Taiwan to be fixed, but that just seems odd, and out-of-character.
Don't mind me--I'm just ranting. As I said, I feel very strongly about these movies.

Scratch that--according to Wikipedia, the toys themselves get Buzz shipped to Taiwan. That makes a bit more sense, though I still like the final script better...which is good, 'cause that's what's been made!
