If they were going to depict the idea of torture, setting up a world in which torture=being played with by unimaginative two-year-olds and not-torture=being played with by imaginative three-year-olds, they did not do a good job in setting up the dramatic conflict. I kept thinking, "suck it up, toys."

That this assignment was eminently suckupable is borne out by the concluding montage in which all the remaining toys share the load of playing with the smaller children.

As to the point about Bonnie, was she truly the only not-Andy who deserved to inherit all the toys? Giving Woody to her might have been a nice moment. Giving her the whole box seemed indulgent.
