The accumulation makes this film an existence second only to Avatar and Titanic. {3w.

At the same time, the overseas box office of The Avengers also exceeded 800 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office totaled as high as 1.45547 billion U.S. dollars, also firmly occupying the third place in film history.

Even if it is so hot, The Avengers can't escape the natural laws of movies. Since the sixth week, the film's single-day box office in North America has dropped to about 3 million US dollars, and the popularity in overseas regions is also declining rapidly. According to Judging from the current trend, the final global box office will probably be around 1.7 billion US dollars.

As The Avengers cools down, its rivals breathe a sigh of relief, and the share of summer slots shared by studios other than Disney is slowly rising.

However, just like in the past few years, every month of the summer vacation, there will be at least one big-production commercial film under the Disney banner. By mid-June, Pixar's super masterpiece Toy Story 3 is coming.

Although it is likely that sequels will continue to be produced in the future, Disney has released the end of the Toy Story trilogy early in its promotion, which has attracted the attention of a large number of movie fans.

It has been more than fifteen years since the first computer-animated feature film in film history. The original fans have grown up, and the film means to them the beauty and memories of the past!

Therefore, in addition to the current teenagers, some older groups are also the audience of this film, and the film also played the banner of nostalgia.

So it should come as no surprise that a lot of people in their thirties and older showed up at the Toy Story 3 premiere.

I don't know what to say. This series has accompanied me through my carefree childhood.

In the interview area, Taylor, who was holding Ryan's arm, seemed to be touched by the reporter's question, It used to make me cry, make me laugh, move me, and fascinate me. In order to collect every toy in it, Being a thief in the Pixar office building, Toy Story meant so much to me. It will be one of my fondest childhood memories.

Later, the reporter asked Ryan about the series.

Toy Story has an indelible influence on the history of film, Ryan said emphatically of Pixar Studios, It is the pioneering spirit of Pixar Studios itself that makes this film not only technically, but also It breaks new ground in terms of storytelling.

Toys like Buzz Lightyear and Woody instantly became popular with people of all ages, just as popular as traditional Disney characters. Toy Story greatly expanded the audience for animated movies , and also redefined the rules of filmmaking, it proved that it is entirely feasible to make a film that can satisfy the needs of all kinds of audiences. - set a benchmark.

I remember when we released Toy Story, John Lasseter, on the other side, also said in the interview, Ryan said it was our Snow White. We were also like 'Hey, what if Toy Story Elementary Mobilization really reaches the heights of Snow White. How cool would it be to become a classic movie that everyone talks about.

And then, Andrew Stanton went on to say, Make Toy Story tell everyone that it's about a part of their life—their childhood. Their family life. That's what we What motivated Toy Story is what drives every movie we make to this day.

As the titans of Pixar Studios arrived in the interview area one after another, Ryan took Taylor's arm and left here voluntarily. They are today's protagonists just like the toys that are about to go on the big screen again.

Time flies.

While walking towards the screening hall, Taylor said to Ryan, In the blink of an eye, fifteen years have passed.

At that time, you were still a little bit like Sunny. Ryan made a shrinking gesture, Now you are taller than Nicole.

Is my height stressing you out?

In terms of height alone, Taylor, wearing retro high heels, has surpassed Ryan, I calculated, I am now six feet three inches...

You should consider Scarlett's feelings more. Ryan didn't care at all, not me, dear.

Shrugging his shoulders, Taylor obviously didn't want to continue this topic, so he walked to the back seat of the front row with Ryan on his arm, and sat next to each other.

I heard from Sunny... She brought the topic to Ryan, Did you quarrel with Nicole?

It's not a quarrel. Ryan shook his head. He knew that his daughter was close to Taylor, and he didn't take it seriously. It's just that they have different opinions on some things, which led to a little disagreement.

It's really hard to put them together in one movie!

The well-informed guy obviously knew why, I wouldn't be surprised if they fought on set.

You also think my idea is unrealistic? Ryan asked.

Yeah! Taylor nodded vigorously, Although they never confront each other in public, Nicole and Charlize would still talk to each other when I was around, but Nicole and Nat never talked to each other, even They are very professional actors and directors, and it is impossible to cooperate for a long time, especially with you among them.

Okay, honey.

Seeing Taylor wanted to say something again, Ryan stopped her and pointed to the lit screen, The movie has started.

While the first two Toy Story films were hugely successful, some viewers, especially die-hard fans, were concerned about the third installment.

As a sequel to a classic movie, it is often unflattering, and it is usually dubbed a dog-tailed mink to steal money, so when Pixar Studios decided to return to the toy series, many fans were overjoyed. Worry.

Toy Story 3 has been more than ten years since the last one. Pixar simply let Andy grow up in the film and make the decision to dispose of the toys when he leaves home for college.

More than an hour before the development of the plot, there were climaxes and climaxes. In fact, the direction of the development of the plot can still be seen in the shadow of the first two parts-the conflict between Woody and the toys is stimulated to be resolved, and then they work together to achieve the goal.

Here, some viewers may find fault with Pixar for repeating the old ways, yes! This part fully caters for the tastes of the children, and the continuous appearance of new characters also makes the film exciting and interesting, but it is not enough to make the film a classic.

However, the appearance of the second half hour brought the theme of this film to a higher level than the previous two.

When the toys encountered plots during their escape from the garbage dump and fell into the huge furnace, they held hands weakly but firmly, smiling at each other and waiting for the god of death to come. The orange light in the furnace was hitting the toys. , Warm and sad, like the light before the setting sun.

Although the audience knew that Pixar would not end like this, they were still moved, and a clear sob sound could be heard in the theater. After all, the toy series has been with them for so many years, and Woody Cowboy and Buzz Light will never be remembered. Years can't solve the problem.

But when all the efforts of the toys are in vain, and the hero ends up dead, the audience who watched the series grow up can't help but sigh—Andy who will grow up, toys who will be discarded, everything will change, and this law is also the same in the movie Be applicable.

And time not only brings the toys the fate of being neglected, but also takes away too much childhood feelings. So far, the movie has already been in a humorous tone, unconsciously extending a trace of nostalgia.

Of course, if the film becomes a tragedy, it may really be remembered by many people forever, but it will become a sharp weapon to kill the box office.

Neither Ryan nor Disney would allow this to happen, nor did Pixar, a studio that refocused on the market, let the tragedy happen.

Therefore, when Pixar tried the Melting Pot Adventure chopper, the toys returned to Andy without any risk.

Ordinary movie stories will probably stop here, and they will never lose their appreciation, but Andy's choice next is the biggest highlight of the film.

Under the guidance of Woody Cowboy, Andy, who originally planned to hide the toys in the attic, held a large box of toys and made up his mind to give them to the little girl Bonnie who also likes toys.

When Andy took out the toys and introduced them one by one, he could clearly feel Andy's deep love for the toys, and the more obvious this love was, the more reluctant it was.

When the Woody cowboy at the bottom of the box was unexpectedly taken out at the end, deep sighs sounded in the theater, and Ryan even saw Taylor beside him quietly wiping his eyes. Since fifteen years ago, she has been the protagonist of this series. Loyal fans, the words she said in the interview were not mixed with much water.

Although reluctant, this may be the best ending for the toys, Andy said——they mean a lot to me, I hope you treat them well—with sighs and a little relief in his eyes.

Andy took out the toys and played with Bonnie for a long time. One of the most profound scenes - Andy put Woody on his neck, laughed and ran against the wind. This scene also appeared in Toy Story 1 , Echoing from beginning to end, there is a little parting here, but it is indeed a perfect farewell.

Pixar took the audience's childlike innocence as an introduction, and directly hit the most important things in their lives in the second half hour of the film.

When many viewers thought they had caught something after watching the film, in fact, some things were gone forever. (To be continued..)
