When Andy's toys request that they be relocated to the Butterfly Room, Lotso resets Buzz Lightyear and has him beat down his friends, showing a cold satisfaction while doing so. Taking over Sunnyside, Lotso subjects the toys in the Caterpillar Room to horrid mistreatment from the younger children. ![]() Originally the favorite toy of a young girl named Daisy, Lotso was mistakenly lost and replaced, leading him to believe that all toys were worthless and unloved. Complete Monster: Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear is the ruler of Sunnyside Daycare, and oppresses the other toys through brute force and violence.Catharsis Factor: Imagining the pain and suffering that Lotso must end up enduring for all the horrible things he's done once he's been strapped to the front of the garbage truck for what will probably be the rest of his existence."Cowboy!", the song heard in the intro, provides thrills, chills and soaring enjoyment as the film starts with Woody, Jessie and Buzz's imaginary adventure. ![]() The Oscar-winning song We Belong Together is a cheerful and beautiful track that completes the main characters’ long deserved happy ending and is the perfect capstone to the trilogy.Just listening to it can get your eyes misty. The Claw from Toy Story 3, one of Pixar's tensest, most nightmarish, most heartwrenching scenes ever has the music to match.The Spanish version of "You've Got a Friend In Me" (technically, "Hay un Amigo en Mi") completely makes the movie.Ned Beatty as Lotso is arguably the most deserving of the nominees that year for the MTV Best Villain award and most would probably agree Tom Felton winning for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (for what was the second year in a row for the character) was the worst decision the voters could've ultimately made.The King's Speech winning Best Picture is contested in favor of this film instead.It's not for nothing that this movie is often called (even by professional film critics) one of the top ten "movies where grown men cry." As mentioned below, it gets so dark and grim at times that a number of fans were genuinely afraid Pixar wouldn't save their iconic toys from a violent demise by incineration. It has everything from a brutal dictatorship note Lotso puts himself in charge of Sunnyside and forces some of the toys to be beat up by toddlers to child abuse note Lotso manipulates Big Baby, a doll with the mind of a one-year-old, into doing his bidding, to the inevitable prospect of a slow and sad death note The scene where the toys almost get burned to death. Angst Aversion: This movie is notorious for being very depressing to watch.Many explanations have been offered, the less imaginative being that not many people there had seen the other two films because of economic troubles right after the fall of Communism in the 1990s, resulting in 3's Continuity Porn lacking appeal. Americans Hate Tingle: Toy Story 3 was an utter flop in some countries in Eastern Europe, including Latvia, Romania and Russia.The jacket that finally breaks Ken in the closet torture scene-a green Nehru jacket from 1967-is an actual exclusive collector's item, and is highly valued in the Barbie collector community.Orphan trains actually existed in the late 1800s. In the opening scene, Woody has to save a train full of orphans.Was he trying to make Lotso consider Big Baby or was he in the middle of telling Lotso he was Someone Else's Problem (which likely further triggered Lotso into threatening him)? Was he most broken from letting down Big Baby or Lotso ( or both)? Perhaps most ambiguous is his final conversation concerning Lotso's position ("She only replaced you."). Alternative Character Interpretation: Chuckles' whole disposition in present day compared to how he is in his flashback reeks of Fridge Horror.It's also just sweet to see him pass the torch to a younger kid. He may be a grown-up now, but as demonstrated in that scene, he still has the playful personality and love for his toys that he had in the first two movies. Adorkable: Andy's adult self is revealed to be this at the end of the film, when he gives his toys to Bonnie, and spends what seems like hours playing with her. ![]() Spoilers for other features will be marked.
