I'm glad that all the hype since Toy Story 3 released has been rather maintained. By now it's practically a lock for a Best Picture nomination. It's not going to win, which is something we know going in. It's still nice to see that the trilogy ended on a bang rather than a whimper, and people are acknowledging that. What always worries me about any film is how well it will make the transition to the home theater setting, and Toy Story 3 has managed that pretty well. It still holds a somewhat tragic nature, and literally yanks the tears out of your eyes. However, what most will probably do, and rightfully so, is sit down for the entire series in one solid 4.5 hour marathon. It's a lot more compact and a lot more enjoyable than most film trilogies, including The Lord of the Rings. It is a miracle of nostalgia and modern filmmaking, and I hope it is not soon forgotten.
