Toy Story 5 praised for nuanced take on tech and emotional beats

an unending series of Toy Story movies, ever more tearful and overwrought. Toy Story 13 is just an AI generated Tom Hanks weeping over Andy's grave for 90 minutes. Toy Story 25 sees the remains of sentient toys drifting in space, unable to move or speak, but fully conscious

Watched Toy Story 5. A film about screen time being bad for kids. Half the parents spent it scrolling while the movie did the parenting. You couldn't write it.

‘Toy Story 5’ earned $71 MILLION on its opening day at the domestic box office. • Second-biggest opening day ever for an animated film domestically. • Made on a $275 million budget.

Update: Now that "Toy Story 5" is out, this petition has pivoted to asking Disney/Pixar to rebrand the film and change the title. Yes, I'm sure Disney will do that to a movie that has been very well received by the critics and public, is already doing big box-office numbers and has a hit #1 song.

Pixar has done it again! #ToyStory5 is another brilliant entry in their flagship series! Andrew Stanton & Kenna Harris crafted a hilarious and compelling story about the importance of human connection in a tech-driven world. They expand on Jessie’s story in beautiful ways. I’m still down for more!

so Toy Story 5… kind of wrecked me? I guess that’s what happens when you make a whole movie out of the most devastating scene in the entire franchise. On Cowgirl Jessie, Sarah McLachlan, and [sob] “When She Loved Me.”

Good morning. Today Katie and I are going to the cinema later today to see Toy Story 5. Loved the first 3 movies & this one's premise has my attention. Since I watched a Keanu Reeves film last night & my cat is named Meownu Reeves... lets leave it with "Be excellent to each other and party on!"

Just saw #ToyStory5 at the cinema and enjoyed it. Was a nice film. 🤠 🐸

In “Toy Story 5,” conflict between analog and digital toys sounds the alarm bells of how technology is changing play. But “there’s only so much tech-dystopia darkness that even the most cutting-edge ‘Toy Story’ movie can countenance,” Justin Chang writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/au_qCV

Damn you Pixar! How dare you make me feel feelings! It's good, guys. It's really good. Take the kid in your life, or a friend, or both. #ToyStory5

Ready to have these toys make me cry again #ToyStory5

Congratulations, Pixar! You were able to continue the legacy of your most important franchise and not have the latest installment be nor feel like a cash grab! #ToyStory5 is another spectacular addition to the Toy Story franchise and it’s a miracle that I’m not feeling franchise fatigued by it.

My vinyl 10” singles of Taylor Swift’s “I Knew It, I Knew You” from #ToyStory5 arrived today. If you’re gonna have harmonica on a song, you’d better make it count - and boy did they! The B-side instrumental version is fun, as are the designs on the pair. 💛💙 #TayStory

The lack of a Randy Newman song in Toy Story 5 is pretty glaring. Every Toy Story movie needs a song sung by a scary sounding guy with a voice like a cartoon pirate.
