DPMovieReviewToyStory3 What is it about?

After being mistakenly delivered to a day-care center instead of Andy’s attic, the toys struggle to not only escape the center, but in finding a future and closing the chapter on their past with Andy.

Who is in it?

Tom Hanks – Woody
Tim Allen – Buzz Lightyear


Favorite Scene:


After being inside a recycle refinery, the toys hold hands thinking they will die together. However, the three aliens swoop them up with the trash claw and state (similar to the original), “The clawwwww”.

Favorite Quote:

Buzz Lightyear: “Spare me your lies, temptress! Your emperor's defeated, and I’m immune to your bewitching good looks.”

Review:

Toy Story 3 is an excellent film. There is no other way to put it. The last of the trilogy was amazing from it’s drama, comedy, humor, limitless creativity, and it’s ability to not only entertain, but wrap up a great series. The team behind Toy Story 3 should be well applauded for their efforts as all of the hype surrounding the film is well-deserved and more.

The plot in Toy Story 3 brought to life new characters and bid farewell to the usual gang with a plot that was super engaging. Not to mention, the insanely hilarious “Ken” character. The viewer will develop a bond with all of the characters throughout the movie, which is a true testament to an excellent writing crew.

This review can go on, and on, and on, about the the greatness of Toy Story 3. It is a definite must watch for everyone.

Grade: 4.5/5

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions.  121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden?  Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

Dome Pondering Move Review: Say You Will (2017)

What is it about? A recent high school graduate cares for his mother while attempting to navigate his first relationship following his father's suicide.  Who is in it? Travis Tope - Sam Nimitz Katherine Hughes - Ellie Vaughn Favorite Scene: [spoiler alert] Sam plays his song for his mom. Favorite Quote: Ellie: "I wish we could have met down the road, maybe when we were like 27." Sam: "I think we needed each other now." Review:  Say You Will was an absolutely pleasant surprise of a watch from the Amazon Prime offerings.  I wasn't exactly sure what to expect with this one, but after the credits rolled, it was a movie that provided authentic characters and a great lesson on life. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and it's okay if you don't.  What makes Say You Will so beautiful is that all of the characters are carrying some inner struggle that connects them in the moment and time that helps them through whatever it is. The unlike...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 2/22/26

Olympic Hockey Teams Hockey took the nation by storm this week as both the men's and women's teams brought home gold medals. I echoed last year with the run the United States Men's and Women's basketball teams had, but there really is a unifying front for these teams on the Olympic stage. As divided as we currently are, it's these kinds of moments, these kinds of runs, where we all feel, even for just a few moments, American.  Really cool stuff, and really cool vibes this week.  Congrats to the many other United States athletes who performed on the Winter Games' big stage.  I'm going to miss the odd effects of watching curling... Laila Edwards I know we're supposed to live in this society where we're now suppressing race, or various identities, in how we perceive or recognize people, moments, and history.  Even from that lens, today's non-DEI scope, it was difficult for me not to feel the moment Laila Edwards became the first Black woman to win a...
