Toy story 3 the incinerator4/4/2024 ![]() The story finds Andy (voiced by John Morris, who, in a nice touch, also voiced Andy in the previous “Toy Story” films, one of several young actors reprising their childhood roles) heading off to college, fueling a screenplay filled with characters who must learn to let go of the past. Warning: spoilers throughout rest of review. ![]() One of the earliest online reactions from viewers was a collective admission of guilt over “abandoning” their childhood toys. But that ultimately goes against the point: Andy struggles with the idea of leaving his toys behind and only finds real peace once he gives them away – all of them, including his beloved Woody. The film makes a point out of Andy’s reluctance sometimes it’s obvious (he flinches, almost like a child yelling “mine!”, when young Bonnie first reaches for the cowboy), sometimes it’s less so (he defensively calls his toys “junk” yet remains bothered at the thought of his sister even touching them). The script is specific in making the final decision Andy’s alone. Not shove them in the attic, not take them to college, not have them accidentally hauled off to day care and nearly destroyed at the landfill. Woody (Tom Hanks) calls his fellow toys “selfish” when they decide to stay at Sunnyside Day Care instead of journey back home where they can wait in the attic, patiently, for Andy to someday decide he needs them again. But Andy keeping them would also be selfish, especially when there are sweet, imaginative children eager to offer them a new place to play. ![]() Andy’s mom (Laurie Metcalf) can’t believe her son’s shipping off to college. Buzz (Tim Allen) and the gang struggle to remain relevant, fearing a life in the attic.
