Max 141 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Toy Story 4 Will be About Woody Falling in Love with Bo PeepThat's an odd way of phrasing the plot, as that makes the film sound more like a prequel than a sequel. The film is about Woody and Buzz finding Bo Peep, since she was absent in Toy Story 3. That doesn't sound unnecessary to me.'Toy Story 4' Sends Buzz and Woody In Search of Bo PeepToy Story 4 - John Lasseter InterviewWoody and Buzz go out to find Bo Peep and bring her back.I think the idea sounds great, and I think it has a lot of potential. I enjoyed Toy Story of Terror! and Toy Story That Time Forgot and the other Toy Story shorts, and I'm excited to see these characters again.

BloodBoal 7,538 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 One day, I swear to god, the cinema industry will let franchises have a real, definitive ending, not the one we're being sold with each third film in a series "Our heroes go on an adventure... ONE LAST TIME", which is then followed by 15 sequels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,346 Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Yes, the little shorts and tv specials that have followed Toy Story 3 have all been good and not tarnished the legacy. But another official full sequel is just not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,278 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I think it's just every new sequel adds risk. The first one didn't need a sequel at all but they made it work, continuing the story to a natural conclusion. Then they announced a third one which if anyone remembers had tons of skepticism, nobody wanted it and they still made it work. The ending to 3 was so right for the characters and what had been set up thematically in the other films, you look back and think "Oh yeah, of course that's what really needed to happen eventually." It gave those first two an entirely new perspective.So on the one hand, I want to have faith that they'll do it yet again and somehow make 3 feel like a penultimate installment rather than a definitive ending, like what 3 did to 2, and what 2 did to 1. That should really be the goal with any sequel, like it was planned all along, but it just seems like they've got their work cut out for them with all the closure in 3. Why do we really need to see them now go off and do a Bo Peep story? Maybe they have a good answer to that, hopefully they do, but it's hard to tell.

mrbellamy 6,278 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I agree, but I'll at least give them the benefit of the doubt until I see it, since I personally thought 3 was a terrible idea and was proven wrong. If this turns out to be any good, then they're probably going to have to make us suddenly do a 180 and think "Oh, of course these movies were never really about Andy, 3 was just the final necessary step before the real point!" and I don't know how they'd do that.

Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Toy Story 2 and 3 were good movies.Yes, so?3 brought a perfect closure to the Andy sorry. We don't need a new trilogy about the toy's new owners.We didn't need the second and third film, either. Especially the third, which came years later, somewhat out of the blue. They were both very good though. Who says the 4th will be bad?I agree that #3 *seemed* to have a kind of "final" ending. But consider this - and I'm not saying this was the original intent: If you've made three films in the same setting, and want to be able to have more reasonably original stories in the same universe, doesn't tne ending of #3 also set up the perfect beginning?

Jay 37,346 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 The article doesn't say its set before the events of Toy Story 1, simply that Andy's story will be touched upon during the course of the film. I'm sure the film begins with the toys living in the house of that new girl they ended up at at the end of Toy Story 3 (since all the post-Toy Story 3 shorts have been set there). I just don't get why anyone would think it was a good idea to bother to even reference Andy at all instead of them just having a new adventure there. Of course, I don't think this film should exist at all and that there's no reason to mess with a perfect trilogy, so what do I know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,346 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Well obviously. But going into Andy's backstory doesn't mean the film will make more money than if it was just a new adventure with the new owner. Which is why I'm wondering why they are going that way. Perhaps they couldn't think of anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,683 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I hate love stories. I'd prefer a story revolving around Andy's family then some romance between Woody and Bo Peep. Plus, this quote from Jay's link hasn't been particularly well observed lately: Quote At Pixar and Disney, we only make sequels if we come up with a story that’s as good, or better than the original.

Jay 37,346 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Yea, its such a BS line. Cars 2 and Monsters U were clear cash-grabs and not amazing new story ideas that could only be told with those characters. Toy Story 2 started as a cash grab but ended up being good, then the same thing happened with Toy Story 3. I think they struck lightning in a bottle twice and they're gonna have a big disappointment with 4 and should have let the franchise end gracefully. Oh well.

Not at the cinema anymore, no. However I would probably happily settle into a good one on some streaming service if there was nowt else on. As far as the children go I'd refuse to take them to the cinema to watch some crap like Angry Birds, coercing them instead to watch something else.
