When Toy Story 3 begins, time has passed about as much for the characters as it has for the fans of the films. Whether or not this really is the toys' last ride remains to be seen, but Pixar doesn't seem to be nearly as cash hungry as DreamWorks to just sloppily force out one Toy Story movie after another - as DW has done with Shrek - so they might actually do well to let this be it. With each film, the set pieces and action, and even humor have been boosted, and Toy Story 3 wraps it all up in a nice little bow. In addition to those already in love with the characters, Toy Story 3 is armed and ready to win over an entirely new generation of Buzz and Woody fans - even to some children of the fans of the original film! But like any memorable trilogy in film history, Pixar takes Toy Story out with a rousing, climactic, and amazingly emotional finish. Any child who loved either of the first two is eleven years older and the franchise will hold special nostalgia for them. It's no secret that anticipation is high for a second sequel. Since then, a third chapter in the toys' story was attempted at least once before by Disney - actually without Pixar's team, even! - but thankfully, the original animation studio wouldn't let the film be made by just anybody and eleven years after the last sequel, we finally are given the long awaited Toy Story 3. The success of the endearing tale about toys that come to life when humans aren't watching them spawned the arguably even better sequel in 1999, and the legacy of the Toy Story characters and franchise was made greater. The year debuted a new series and film studio that would capture the hearts of children and film fans for a decade and a half. It's kind of amazing to ponder the fact that the very first Pixar animated film, as well as the very first Toy Story film, landed fifteen years ago in 1995.
