It was late at night, I was eating something and a piece of food got stuck in my throat. The third moment where I contemplated my death in a very immediate way is, weirdly enough, the one that still scares me the most. From the most searing pain I've ever felt to internal bleeding after surgery, it all seemed like it was going to end. The second time was considerably less spectacular, caused by gallbladder stones and some incredible bouts of bad luck. The first was in 2011, in Tokyo when the Tōhoku earthquake happened, making me stare in horror as skyscrapers swiveled around me, looking like they could fall at any moment. I just want to hear what people thought of it, and that scene especially.Have you ever thought to yourself "my time has come to an end, I'm going to die"? I have, in at least three instances. It was a damn good movie before then but really, but this made it essential. Though the toys do escape at the last second with all their lives.I honestly thought for a moment we might loose someone, I could have seen Pixar taking that step. I don't think I'll ever truly recover from that scene. Then, suddenly as one, each of them, without any type of dialogue take each others hand and stare into the jaws of satin. The toys try to escape but the rubbish is too steep, they can't get free. This is plainly Pixars horrifying picture of hell. As the toys decent from the covayor belt into a swirling pile of rubbish we see at it's centre a burning inferno. The gang are pushed into an area where the rubbish is to be chewed up, which they escape from, and then thrown into a furnace. Never before this moment had the fact that the movie was about death hit me so hard. In the last section of the movie when the Toys escape from Sunny Side (the day care centre they were donated to which is like some sort of prison) but by accident are thrown into a dumpster and taken to a landfill site. There are a couple of moments that had me in tears (which hasn't happened to me in a movie since I was maybe 11) but there is one moments especially which I think is probably the most traumatic thing I've ever witnessed on the big screen. This is partially because the plot revolves around the fact that Andy is now 17 and going to college (like me) and hasn't played with the toy's in years, who have dwindled to just the very main characters. But it took my breathe away, absolutely pixar's best movie, which might be partially because of how much we have invested with these characters.Īs well as being very funny (and there are some moments in this movie which made me hurt from laughing for so long) Toy Story 3 is also a very, very sad movie. To be honest I wasn't sure going into it how good it would be as I'd say as good as Toy Story 1 and 2 are they don't really match up to the same level as movies like UP, Monsters Inc and The Incredibles. I am 18 years old and going to university at the end of the Summer, and I've been watching the Toy Story movies and every pixar movie since the beginning. I just got back from seeing it literally 2 hours ago and I have to say it was amazing. Now that that's out of the way, I just want to talk about this movie. I REPEAT, READING THIS WILL RUIN THE MOVIE! WARNING! If you have not seen Toy Story 3 DO NOT READ THIS POST OR THREAD! Leave, go see the movie, then post here.
