I cannot possibly write a better review/non-review than the one that FireMom recently wrote, so I won’t even try. I will tell you why the third installment of the Toy Story series is my favorite and probably will forever be.
First of all I have to tell you that Toy Story is my all-time favorite children’s movie ever. I love the good-natured humor, the music, the graphics, the voices…everything! I watched to first two movies before I had children and I kept the Toys from Burger King kids meals for at least 10-12 years! I recently passed them on to Big Brother and Little Brother (FireMom’s kiddos) to play with as my girls never caught on to the movies like I have.
The stories inspire play. True playing with some toys and a lot of imagination. No plugs, a few batteries maybe, but again a lot of IMAGINATION. If I had not had my imaginiation as a kid I would have been quite bored and lonely! I hope my kids learn such innocent play while they are young and are able to have great memories of toys, much like Andy has!
I won’t spoil the movie but there is a character in the film named Bonnie. When you look at her, think of my Elle. She has on a tutu over her clothes with rain boots on…that alone would have made me cry during the movie!
Oh yeah! My kids did like the movie as well. I gave them Toy Story Valentines and Toy Story Silly Bandz in goodie bags at the theater. I am a sucker for party favors!
On a side note: Here is the bag I got when I ordered popcorn….
It must be fate :) Cannot wait to see this!
