TS3 - Which Part "Got" You ---- MAJOR SPOILERS!!!!!

[DisneyMama27]

Personally I started to get a little misty as soon as the toys were back in Andy's room, but totally lost it when he was at Bonnie's and discovered Woody was in the box.

The look on Andy's face, as he was deciding what to do was heartbreaking, and as soon as he introduced Woody, I couldn't stop crying.

I have never cried in a movie like I did this one - I was a MESS!

My little boy wasn't even born when TS came out, but it was one of the first movies he ever watched. And on his first trip to WDW, we bought him Buzz and Woody and took him to see TS2. SO...watching Andy grow up, I felt like I was watching my own son.

I was also sad about Bo and Wheezy. But from the moment the LGMs were run over to Woody's little wave (yep, that was a very big small moment), I was in tears, doing my best to not audibly sob!

I have to say, I was nervous about this movie - 3rd installments don't often hold up the standards of previous movies. I seriously underestimated Pixar - this was so well written! We were all sad that Andy was growing up and that final playtime with Andy, Bonnie and the toys was SO touching and bittersweet! I was happy to see the toys stay together, and get to be with a child that would love and play with them - and you have to imagine that he will be back to check on Bonnie, as well as Woody.

Andy's moment of indecision was the most emotional - I didn't even know what I wanted him to do! Keep Woody with him, or share him with a child who would appreciate him? His decision warmed my heart, but made me weep!

I laughed and cried all the way through this movie, and LOVED it! Can't wait to see it again! (I will say, we saw this movie in the new Goldclass theater nearby, and it was an amazing experience all the way around - I was very grateful for the cloth napkin next to my recliner to wipe my face with, since I saw it on opening day and hadn't heard to bring a box of kleenex!)

I got teary at random spots throughout. The incinerator scene was the first place I started to loose it but I only got a little bit out before they were saved and I was better.

I didn't straight out cry my eyes out until the end when Andy was showing each toy to Bonnie as he gave them to her and talked about each one. And when the car was driving away... flood gates opened.

We just got home!
I started crying during the incinerator scene and steadily cried harder until I was a sobbing mess by the end! I had to bite on my sweatshirt so people around us couldn't hear me bawling!

LOVED LOVED LOVED the movie...it was the best of them all.

LOVED LOVED LOVED the movie...it was the best of them all.

This was me completely. I expected to tear up. I did not expect to be suppressing sob after sob. From the incinerator scene on, I was a wreck.

When DIDN'T I cry is more the question?

I am known for being a big 'ol teary mess whenever I watch (or listen to, or see) anything remotely sad, touching, or emotional in any way. I have tears running down my cheeks right now from reading the responses on this thread!!

The crying moments started early for me:

1- When the toys are trying to get Andy to pay some attention to them- any attention- at the beginning of the movie. The look on their faces when he opens the toybox only to close it again when he finds his cellphone had me sniffling already.

2- Seeing the toys upset, thinking that they would be put in the trash, and Woody pulled away in the "college" box made me misty.

3- Jessie going into an almost fetal position and someone- Woody?- saying it wouldn't be like Emily again had me holding back a sob.

4- Lotso and the other toys forcibly resetting Buzz had me gasping and tearing up.

5- Woody leaving Bonnie's house to rescue his friends made me sniffle.

6- Big Baby crying "mama" when it saw the locket had me boo-hooing.

7- The incinerator scene- OMG!! I actually sobbed out loud and involuntarily said, "Oh, no! Oh, no!" a few times before the Claw saved them.

8. When I thought Woody would be forever seperated from the others to go to college, I cried.

9. The whole scene where Andy gives the toys to Bonnie had me sobbing like a baby. He introduces each one to her, and then sees Woody in the bottom of the box- the look on his face- I bawled out loud. Then him spending time, playing with his toys with Bonnie, knowing Woody and Buzz were experiencing Andy's childhood love one last time, just did me in.

10. The last fade out on the clouds in the sky that mirrored the clouds on his walls from the first fade in in TS1 had me going all over again.

I can't believe I was the ONLY person in the theater who clapped and cheered when the aliens came with the claw to save Woody and the gang. I was staring at the screen, my gaping mouth, my eyes tearing, can't believing what I'm seeing, can't believing that PIXAR would even allow such a dreadful ending to our heroes, and just when I thought there could not possibly be any way out.....the claw appears out of nowhere to save our friends.....ahh, I was so relieved that I started to clap and cheer. I was the ONLY person in the theater to do this. My daughter, 9 years old, turns to me and says "are you ok mom?"

I'm going to see again but this time in 3D.

Don't worry, you weren't the only one! The entire theater burst into applause at that part when I saw it.

I was also sad for Bo Peep - I wonder why they chose to not include her? My only guess would be that it was getting to be too many characters to keep track of, but still . . .

The last 45 minutes or so was some of the best filmmaking I've ever seen. The whole escape was done so well; and then the finale . . . talk about bittersweet. Best ending ever.

In the "Art of Toy Story 3" book, Lee Unkrich talks about the decision not to include Bo Peep. Remember, she wasn't really a "toy," she was part of Molly's nursery lamp, and was made of porcelain, so easily breakable. Andy was borrowing her in TS to play "damsel-in-distress," but she wasn't really one of his toys. Lee points out that they were already having a hard time incorporating her into Toy Story 2, since she couldn't really go on the "adventure" with the others (he says there was some joking about having her wrap herself in bubble wrap and ship herself to Al's apartment).

Lee says, in the book, for TS3, "It was really stretching believability for Bo Peep to still be a part of this world. It made no sense for her to be in Andy's room. It made no sense for Molly to have her, because Molly's twelve now." In the end, he says, "We finally decided to make Bo Peep emblematic of how the room had changed and the sacrifices the toys had made along the way."

I think they made the right call.

Hmm, interesting, I guess I can understand that. Thanks for sharing!

1. When Woody and the Gang were in the trash Incinerator. As soon as they realized there was no way out and settled into the thought of them dying so they'll die together. And joined hands. I was a mess. I felt like my lower intestines were up in my throat.

^^^ This. I completely lost it at that moment and it just kept going down hill from there.

 

[Bephus]

I got choked up right at the beginning and just tried to keep it together as well as I could for the whole movie so DS4 wouldn't get upset!

 

[zoeotis]

I agree. The incinerator scene had to be the most emotional for me. It got me thinking of all my toys and wondering what became of them. It didn't seem to bother my kids, but my husband and I were teary.

 

[Rose DiVerona]

I saw the movie four times.

The first time, I started crying when Andy was introducing all his toys to Bonnie. And we're not talking a couple sniffles. We're talking me trying to stifle my tears so I wouldn't make a bunch of noise in the theater (you know that gasping-crying that a lot of us girls do? yeah, that would have been me).

The second and third, I held out until the part when Andy came across Woody in the box. And these times were just silent tears, easily manageable.

The fourth, I got a little teary-eyed at the Woody part but did not have to wipe my cheeks. No Kleenex needed.

And all four times, I was laughing by the end credits. Short tears.

I think I had such a strong emotional response because I have grown up with the films, and I'll be leaving for college in just under a month. The end of Toy Story 3 was like me saying goodbye to MY favorite toys (which will, btw, be staying in my room when I'm gone)!

 

[leeshiebean]

Cried when the toys were accepting their fate and holding hands before nearly being incinerated. I couldn't see any way out for them so I thought "are they really ending it this way?!"

And of course, sobbed my eyes out during the whole end of the movie. It hits close to home to think about that "growing up" aspect. I've been there recently and it's tough. But unlike Andy, I kept all of my special childhood toys! I couldn't bear to give them away!

 

[startrekkie]

It was a real emotional film i didn't want to cry in case Robert that's my stepdad and my two sisters looked at me

 

[Symphony]

The incinerator part was horrific, I couldn't believe it. I was so convinced they were gonna kill off the toys.

I started to get teary at the end, especially Andy's face when he spotted Woody in the box. Then this little kid behind me, who must've been about 5 at the oldest slumps heavily, sighs and whines 'Is it finished yet' that ruined the moment ( I was grateful, I'd never live it down if I'd been spotted crying by DBF)

 

[rabyoga]

Man, I must have a black heart and no soul. I didn't have any tears for Toy Story 3. To be honest, I didn't like it. I thought it was the "same old, same old." I loved the first Toy Story and Toy Story 2. Maybe I'm just jaded..

*Although I did get a little lump in my throat when I dropped my daughter for her first day of high school.

 

[where's_my_prince]

the last 5 minutes i was bawling, i felt like my childhood was dying when he was giving away his toys. bawling to the point to where my sister was like "are you alright"

thank goodness for those cute little scenes during the credits, so i could compose myself

i've only seen it once, i'm kind of scared to see it again, cuz i dont want to cry anymore
