We took the two oldest grandsons to see "TOY Story 3 (3D)" today. It was an enjoyable movie and the kids seemed to like it because it was about toys and day care. The 3D in this movie is not the "coming at you" type of show, but very sophisticated animation that looks real. I continue to believe that this movie is for older adults. After all some of the toys are from 30-40 years ago. There are no Transformers or Cars toys. But that is not the weird thing. In the middle of the movie the plot changed to "Cool Hand Luke" where the Big Bear is giving the rules to the new toys where breaking a rule meant "a night in the box." His whole dialogue was from the Warden in Cool Hand.
The only thing he didn't say was the title of my post. Cool Hand Luke is over 30 years old! Most of the adults in the theater probably didn't get it either. Our grandkids stayed with it because they had glasses. The only question they had was, "Is that really how garbage dumps work?"
But the movie did one thing that is true to all Disney Cartoons, there is loss and sadness at the end. They kill Bambi, the Lion King, and Andy leaves the toys for a new life!
I give it **1/2 stars.
