Miscellaneous Movie Musings

That's what most people say. Better in every respect, in fact, were mousepod's exact words last night.

I just don't see it. I found it completely inferior in absolutely every respect, though not without its charms. It suffered from Star Trek Syndrome ... i.e., how to gin up drama when your entire cast is all lovey dovey. I liked it much better when Buzz and Woody hated each other, and all the toys except Bo Peep wanted to lynch Woody from the nearest Lincoln Log.

So outside characters were introduced to be villains and have the dramatic tension. I felt something for Jesse, but none of the others did anything for me and the action-packed rescue plot was sequel-all-the-way.

Bah.

But to each his own.

And I'm actually looking forward to Toy Story 3.
