I know but it so diminishes the end of Toy Story 3. Also, I read an article that the PIXAR team is a bit pissed off at Lasseter. Evidently he has spent all of his time on the Disney Animation side of things revamping that team over the last few years and very little on the PIXAR side. Not surprising problems followed for Pixar and Disney Animation took off. Not surprising Lasseter himself will be directing Toy Story 4.
I hear ya. unfortunately, Hollywood will always favor $ over art and Pixar has been having problems and needs a sure fire hit soon.
Maybe it's time those two sides of the "house" to merge. I mean obviously JL is a major major cog in the wheels that turn both Disney Animation and Pixar. His focus seems to impact both sides accordingly.
Hopefully he finds a second in command that is worthy or at the very least some balance between both houses.
Toy Story 4 Release date: June 21, 2019 (3D/2D theaters and IMAX) Studio: Disney•Pixar Director: Josh Cooley MPAA Rating: N/A Screenwriters: Rashida Jones, Will McCormack, Stephany Folsom Genre: Comedy, Action, Animation Starring: Tim Allen, Tom Hanks, Annie Potts, Patricia Arquette, Joan Cusack Plot Summary: Woody (voice of Tom Hanks) has always been confident about his place in the world, and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie. So when Bonnie’s beloved new craft-project-turned-toy, Forky (voice of Tony Hale), declares himself as “trash” and not a toy, Woody takes it upon himself to show Forky why he should embrace being a toy. But when Bonnie takes the whole gang on her family’s road trip excursion, Woody ends up on an unexpected detour that includes a reunion with his long-lost friend Bo Peep (voice of Annie Potts). After years of being on her own, Bo’s adventurous spirit and life on the road belie her delicate porcelain exterior. As Woody and Bo realize they’re worlds apart when it comes to life as a toy, they soon come to find that’s the least of their worries.
We saw it last night. I thought they should have left well enough alone after TS 3 but we both thoroughly enjoyed TS 4. It was funnier and darker than the others. TS 3 is still our favorite.
Hi Shaggy. Probably not that dark for you and I but the movie is aimed at young children and they may be a bit unsettled. Mostly darker characters than the other 3. It was even a little creepy for me for that type of movie.
Just saw it with the whole family. I could see it having some dark tones in one maybe 2 scenes but over all it wasn't dark. Pretty dang good. Loved everything about the movie. Entertaining through out and my 2 year now has another TS movie we can watch 20 times over and over when it comes on Blu-ray. He's a Toy Story fanatic! I really hope they continue the Toy Story franchise with more movies. I know they plan on doing a few Toy Story spin offs on Disney+ and possibly short films, but I still hope we see a few more feature fiims. Toy Story 10 wouldn't be bad.
I think the freaky part for me was the way the female doll acted to get what she wanted. I know someone who was way to close to her personality. It was a little freaky for me.
Pixar announced no more sequels for the foreseeable future. I think the cast of Toy Story has also said goodbye to those characters. So I doubt it unless it’s an entirely new cast.
