A Big Scene From TOY STORY 3 Was Screened At D23...
SPOILER ALERT !!
Merrick here...
Last week, we learned some plot details about TOY STORY 3 (HERE).
Now we have a sense re: how said plot is actually set into motion, courtesy of a detailed report over at Coming Soon. Seems TS3 producer Darla Anderson and director Lee Unkrich unveiled the first publicly presented scene from the film at D23 this weekend.
Here's a snippet of ComingSoon's write-up:
The scene opens with Andy's room. It's recognizable as the room from his youth, but the walls are now covered with different posters and there's fewer toys on the floor. Andy's mom comes in and tells Andy that, since he's heading off to college on Friday (in three days) he needs to decide what he's keeping, what he's donating to Sunnyside day care, and what he's just throwing out. Andy's sister, Molly comes in, demanding that he hurry along in the process since she'll be taking his room when he's gone. She walks over to a chest and opens it, revealing all the recognizable toys, and making fun of Andy for still having them. The mom scolds Molly as well, saying that she, too, needs to get some of her junk cleaned out.
Molly heads off to her room (reading "Tween" magazine) and starts throwing toys into a "Sunnyside" box. She throws in an Eight-Ball and then Barbie as the other toys watch with horror from Andy's chest. Hamm has a great joke here, saying "I call the convertible!" while all the other toys are aghast.
Andy opens a trash bag and starts putting toys in it. He puts in Jessie, Rex, Hamm, Bullseye, Mr. Potato Head and a bunch of three-eyed Martians. Soon every toy is inside the bag except for Buzz and Woody who Andy holds in either hand, trying to make his decision.

That's some sad shit.

A very different movie, this time around, I'm thinking.

And then the throws the bag on a bonfire?

Ok maybe not but I'm guessing he probably takes Buzz off to college with him and sticks him on top of his computer.
Not that I ever did that with Optimus Prime or anything. -
Surprised they have a completed scene for this already. I always imagined that final 'renders' for CG animated films would be done when the whole thing was completed rather than scene by scene.
I hope this is as good as the first two and not a significant dip in quality (like the third SHREK movie). The problem they'll have to get round is potentially having too many characters.
All Andy's toys, the round up gang, and some new toys too could leave the plot overcrowded. -
...about Time-riders

I have a big problem with the basic story as one the plot points here contradicts something Andy's mom says in the first movie. Ok, so Andy is off to college and basically getting rid of all of his old toys. When it comes to the decision of getting rid of Woody, his mom would not let him do it. In TS2 his mom said at the yard sale "this is an old family toy, and not for sale." If Woody is an old family toy/heirloom that is being passed down, I doubt she would let Andy toss him when he could be saved for potential grand kids (especially now that Jessie & Bullseye appeared from no where).
Anyhoo... still looking forward to it despite that... -
You've never noticed that parents are like that? While you're a kid they're almost more emotionally attached to your toys than you are, but eventually they revert to being just toys. Family heirlooms might be a different story, though.
-
...over analyzing the continuity kinda sucks the magic out of it a little. How about we just say his mum has changed her mind over the last decade. Or maybe there's just too much crap lying aronud the house now? Hmm?
-
she found out that her father who gave Woody (the toy) to her as a child had multiple affairs and beat her mother.
-
Jeez, you don't have to give up everything when you grow up! I feel bad for Jessie, getting dumped yet again!
-
seeing Andy is college age & all wouldn't he know Woody is rare & worth a shitload of money on ebay?
I know I'd be looking for every dollar for rubbers & beer. -
Continuity issues aside, this sounds like a create frickin' movie. I wonder how many times I'm going to tear up like I did during Jessie's flashback in Toy Story 2 or the the opening montage in Up . . . you know, it seems like Pixar really wants to make me cry. Bastards.
-
Every day I open that bag, pour out the child's room contents and sort the toys. Looking for the ones we can sell and the ones too far gone. I find homes for so many it brings me to tears of happiness. Oh and we never throw away rubber ducks. Excelsior!
-
that Andy's mom said it was an old family toy not for sale because she new it was Andy's favorite toy and that he would be looking forward to playing with it upon returning from Cowboy Camp. As such, a statement like that is more likely to curb the efforts of someone demanding to buy it and Andy could still be allowed to throw it away at a later date.
-
I nearly shed manly tears READING THE DESCRIPTION. I will be crying in the theater at this movie. I am so hyped because this will be awesome.
-
As in, barely non-existent. What's up with that?
-
Orcus means that in a good way since Orcus had more misty eyes from their animated features than any other studios movie with flesh and blood actors. And that's saying a fucking alot
-
I always used to think my toys were alive, and I treated them as such, so that I couldn't even leave a toy just lying on the ground bc I felt he'd be lonely there by himself. Shit, this is going to bring back all those old feelings and make me openly cry in the theater. Damnit.
-
They weren't any of my old toys, though. Those stayed safely behind at home. I did take a few Simpsons figures and the Alien to decorate my desk with though.
-
And didn't tell me about it! I'd go looking for my favorite He-Man or Ghostbusters toys and eventually they just disappeared. Then one saturday afternoon I caught my mom going through the toy box chucking figures into a trash bag. I was so horrified. To think about all the cool toys I lost in those days... *sniff*.
-
Andy holds Buzz in Woody in each hand trying to decide who to keep?
-
Trying to explain to your mother what anal beads are can be pretty embarrassing.
-
a mere description of a scene on paper gets to me.
-
Who has toys littering their room at college age? Even if they had him about to enter high school it would have been a stretch, but COLLEGE? If they would have made him a geeky collector like from TS2 or something, that I could buy. But some average little yuppy kid? Pixar has been showing a lot of armor chinks lately. I hope TS3 isn't a new one.
-
I just read some of the talkback comments and CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE some of you are CRYING while reading a goddamn SCENE DESCRIPTION! just thought you should know, in case it's not already obvious to you, that you are indeed homosexuals. There is NO WAY you can lust after pussy and cry while reading scene descriptions. It's just not possible. So start buying pink hot pants and looking for glory holes because the denial ends now.
-
I actually SAW the scene at D23. It's not very sad. There's a couple of moments of pathos, but nearly everything, even the dog, is played for either laughs or suspense. The audience was either laughing their asses off or on the edge of their seats (especially at the cliffhanger ending). Andy's choice also elicited a huge "ooh" reaction, but nobody came close to crying. From all the footage I saw, it's a little more Monsters Inc then Finding Nemo.
-
You sure seem to know a lot about how homosexuals think...
-
People might care if you had actually shown evidence of reading the description. Seems more like you were seeking a "frist."
I was moved just reading the description. I'm a sap when it comes to movies, though. Can't wait to see this one. My 4-year old daughter knows the other movies well and this will be a big one to see in the theaters together. -
. . . Damn you, Mom! Castle Greyskull was not for sale!!!!! $5.00??? Are you NUTS?!?!?!?
-
Woody would never be given/thrown away.
-
when I was a kid it was tough just trading toys with my friends without my mom knowing about it because she would scold me for it. So yeah, some parents are a hell of a lot more emotionally attached to our toys than even we are. That being said, Im looking forward to this installment. Im not exactly sure how it will fare against the first two, but it should still be interesting. In fact Im wondering how it might end. One theory I have is that during the movie Andy will meet a girl, and at the very end of the film it will flash forward and show the toys being played with Andys kids. Just a possibility...
-
Toy Story 2 not only predicts the plot of Toy Story 3, it pretty much resolves it. At the end Buzz and Wood resign themselves to the idea that their time with Andy will one day end. The big "uh-oh" proposed in TS3 is that Buzz and Woody may not retire together (to infinity and beyond) as they'd hoped. Is that a strong enough storyline for a third film? I sure hope the plotline described here is just a jumping off point, and that Wood and Buzz and the gang take us to unexpected places.
-
for me to poop on!!!!! yeah sorry i'm mind numbingly bored at work. i'm sure it'll be good like the first 2.

Getting rid of the toys? Just like the last retread? Yawn...
by flip63hole
Couldn't make it through the sequel and I must have went to see the first Toy Story five times in the theater...
-
Plain and simple.I'd be more eloquent, but then you wouldn't understand that you were being insulted.
-
Monsters, Inc. makes me tear up EVERY single time (dozens by now); Nemo never did. I'm a total contrarian when it comes to Cars and Nemo.
-
what a brave little toaster ripoff and that was like 15 years ago

they were supposed to go to the attic and somehow the bags got switched with the trash
-
He was glad to get it, but it was a few years old, really scuffed up, paint knicks, and his wings were broken off. I looked at it and thought, "Fuck, that's the wear and tear that really happens to toys! If Buzz looks like this in the new movie, It'll be realistic and I'll cry my eyes out!
-
They have such a great time doing fun stuff whilst the humans are out of the room - and they even go on adventures outside of the house - so why do they sit there and accept being thrown into the garbage? Why don't they play 'dead' like they always do when people are around, but escape from the bin bags once the coast is clear and run off to form a secret 'discarded toys promised land' someplace?
-
Sounds like a great scene. The Toy Story films are truly Pixar's Arkenstone amongst their treasure trove of film gems. Sharp-witted and sentimental and technically superb. The 3D trailer was freaking amazing - audiences at the movie theater I saw it in were "ooh"-ing over the simulated 3D effect when Jessie reached "out" of the screen. Damn clever stuff. When Disney's girl-singer schtick dries up and attempts to bring back those scruffy Muppets nearly bankrupt it, at least it will have Pixar to fall back on.

*your short yellow bus, is waitin'. You get to wear the Plastic Mickey Hat today. Enjoy the slurpee*
-
BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER! It even had a hilarious animated lamp from the Pixar logo.
-
...it makes a little more sense here than in THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER. Kids tend not to have beloved toasters and lamps and radios and vacuums. (Well, maybe radios.)
-
What are anal beads?
-
When I punch you in the guts. I'll be getting a two-for-one deal when I do it, considering your un-dropped balls were hiding in there, too.
-
Of course, I'd be there opening night even if I didn't have a kid. But this will be the first movie that I know she will appreciate seeing in the theater since she has a history with the first 2 on dvd.
-
He just managed to fit a third corn cobb up his ass. SIDEWAYS!
-
I thought the plot was going to be Buzz getting recalled and all the toys having to follow him to Hong Kong. Kinda liked that story...
