I just saw Toy Story 3 last night, and don't worry, I won't give anything away, but it was amazing! It was, hopefully, the final movie in a great childhood trilogy. It did however, make me a little bit sad about the toys that I have outgrown.
I had several of the toys featured I played with - the toy phone, the spinning wheel of farm animals, the three animals that pop up when you hit a button. The only toy missing was My Little Pony.
While many of my toys did get donated, a few got thrown away in heated cleanings with my mom, but most still sit in bins in my parents basement. Thankfully getting a second life with my nephews. Except my barbies. Boys don't play with barbies - at least my nephews think that way. Maybe some day when there are daughters and nieces, they will get played with and accessorized as well.
The whole movie was wonderful, but perhaps the cutest thing was the little eight-year old boy sitting next to me. At the end of the movie he was bawling (it will probably make you cry for those who haven't seen it yet). He had his shirt up by his eyes and was using it to wipe the tears away as the movie was concluding. I was crying too but that is beside the point. It is just a really great movie and Pixar did a very good job of wrapping up the stories of some of my favorite characters.
If you haven't seen it yet - go. :)

Man, you make me want to see it even more than I already do! Perhaps once it's in the dollar theater we'll venture out. I honestly can't remember the last time we saw a movie in the theater. Now I just sound lame. That is not the point. The point is: awesome movie! (I hope.)
