Toy Story 3 Plot Revealed What's in store for Woody and Buzz? Source: The Wall Street Journal
It's not often you get movie scoops from publications like The Wall Street Journal, being, as they are, more enamoured of bar graphs than Batman. But the US publication recently ran an article about Disney Pixar no longer outsourcing their video game tie-ins and, almost in passing, revealed the much guarded plot to Toy Story 3.
According to the Journal, in the third movie "Woody the cowboy and his toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, leaves for college".
That sounds much like a spin on Jesse the Cowgirl's arc in Toy Story 2, where she was abandoned by her grown up owner (we can't think of a less harsh sounding term) and ended up in a junk sale.
It's a good path for the third and possibly final film. It could potentially bring the story of Woody and Buzz full circle, if they eventually end up in the hands of a new child to love them. It does, however, show that a lot of time's passed between Toy Story 2 and the new movie, since Andy was no more than 12 in that film. What would that mean for the toy characters? Will Woody be falling apart? Will all Buzz's paint be worn to nothing. God knows, after a few years, all our childhood toys were chewed, run over and generally scarred from too many interactions with the dog or waste disposal.
It certainly sounds promising to us. What do you think?

You are off your head fella. Toy Story 2 is un-fucking-believeably unbelieveable, and wipes the floor with the superb first one...
... TS3 can go either way. It's always a worry when a new team take over, they could totally fuck it up.

it's not strictly a new team. Lee Unkrich has been co-director on several of the pixar films (including TS2, not sure about TS1) and everything is overseen by the Pixar Brain Trust (John Lasseter, Pete Docter, Ed Catmull, Andre... Read More
Aw! That sounds so sad! I hope it has a happy ending but then again, this is Disney we are talking about. I can't wait to see this, I've seen the other two and they were both brillant. I wonder when it will come out here? ... Read More

Empire bums toy story 2 so much. It was a let down, was good but cant compare with the first.

I have always held Toy Story 2 as my favourite animated film ever made. It was a huge leap from Toy Story 1, and contains possibly the most moving animated scene ever (Jessie's song). I can't wait to see where they take Woody and the gang in the third movie, and I'm sure it will be fantastic. ... Read More
Empire bums toy story 2 so much. It was a let down, was good but cant compare with the first. This better not be a shrek 3! worst kids film ever in my eyes! the beat up toy idea with them all dented and torn apart is good. I hope it will be worth the hype, unlike alot of the films reviewed in empire. ... Read More
If we see the old toys we used to know and love from the first two films all beaten up and broken then that's furthering the personal connection we have with the characters. As we grow up we've all occasionally seen old toys in the attic or whatever and a memory comes back. This could work really well to see how they feel about it :) ... Read More
