The first reviews of Toy Story 5 are stellar

The press has already been able to see Toy Story 5. And it seems that the movie is fantastic. With a consensus regarding it, the opinions about the film are being tremendously favorable, talking about it as the best movie in the franchise in 20 years.

Film critic Scott Menzel on X has stated about the movie that “it stands alongside the first three films, offering a perfect blend of humor, heart, and that unique Pixar magic”. The host of The Movie Podcast, also on X, has said about the movie that it is a “generationally defining experience,” being “the story we need right now.”

Toy Story 5 promises to be one of the highest-grossing films of the year

This is something that Collider’s editor, Meredith Loftus, has emphasized by stating that the film “explores the divide between technology and toys through Jessie resulting in a tremendously emotional and deep story that made me break down in tears”. Something that, in fact, is not exactly a surprise. Because director Andrew Stanton has previously stated that the idea behind this film was to play with the existing tension between technology and toys in today’s childhood.

With a premiere scheduled for June 19, Toy Story 5 promises to be one of the highest-grossing and critically acclaimed films of the year. Therefore, it is important to keep the focus on this movie that, it seems, will live up to the original trilogy.

She has been 11 years without walking a red carpet, and now she is back. What's the reason? "Being a normal person is priceless"

Famous people live in a world completely different from ours. Anyone of us would want to have a mansion, be recognized, go to parties and premieres, live among money and luxury… and they are content to go out on the street and have no one recognize them on the subway. This is what has happened to Joan Cusack, who at 63 years old is practically retired from cinema and enjoying her millions… until now. Joan, the Nobody The two-time Oscar nominee and five-time Emmy winner (of which she won one) has been exactly 6 years retired from the audiovisual world, since in 2020 […]

Joan, the Nobody Lady

The two-time Oscar nominee and five-time Emmy winner (of which she won one) has been retired from the audiovisual world for exactly 6 years, since the release of season 2 of Homecoming in 2020. Now, after her retirement, she has returned to fulfill her contractual obligation with Pixar for the premiere of Toy Story 5. And, of course, she has reminisced about her best times walking the red carpet.

As she said, “I feel very honored to be able to work in this sector for so long, but it is also wonderful to live life, raise your children, be in Chicago, and be a normal person. It’s something that is priceless.” Life is easier when Pixar picks up the phone for you to play Jessie once again, and on top of that, according to rumors, as the new main character of the saga.

We don’t know if we will have Toy Story 6 (although seeing the initial ticket sales figures, they are probably getting to work on it), but it’s not like Cusack has a super busy schedule these days. In fact, her job has been running a gift shop in Chicago, Judy Maxwell Home, and yes, according to reviews on Google Maps, she is working there just like anyone else. Cosplay of a normal person.

'Toy Story 5' finally reveals all its cards in the exciting final trailer of Pixar's pentalogy

Yes, yes, I know, we all more or less agree: there is nothing like the end of Toy Story 3. Pixar should have ended the saga there once and for all, but if they were going to continue it with a fourth installment, why not make Toy Story 5 and focus on the invasion of technology? After all, why would Bonnie keep playing with regular toys when her entire generation already has a tablet? Now we just have to see if Pixar is capable of going further and not just sticking to the “bad technology, good toys” theme […]

Now we just have to see if Pixar is capable of going beyond and not just sticking to “bad technology, good toys.”

There is a pixel in me

We now have the final trailer for Toy Story 5 in front of us, which finally reveals a little more about the story… and frankly, it seems like a very welcome return to the roots after the crazy deviation it took in the fourth installment. Here, Jessie will take charge of finding the toys, battling the tablet (which, as they have stated, is not the main villain of the movie by any means) and driving Forky along the roads of the United States.

Personally, I wouldn’t have given a euro for this movie, but I have to admit that this is exactly what I would have expected from the previous installment: an update mixed with an adventure of our favorite toys without having to delve into metaphysical issues: if Pixar has managed to correct its course, who knows, we might even see Buzz and Woody retire after so many years.

For now, this final chapter will premiere on June 19 (come on, it’s just around the corner!) and it seems that we will have a snake in our boot for the fifth time. Who would have thought after the tears of the third part, but there we will be, the kids… and those of us who already have gray hair. It’s the magic of Toy Story.

Woody is not just Tom Hanks: there is another person who voices the character from 'Toy Story'

Yes, Toy Story has 4 movies (with the 5th about to hit theaters), but Pixar’s super-franchise doesn’t stop there. We have everything from animated shorts to attractions, toys, CDs, or dolls that need someone to voice the characters. And, frankly, Tom Hanks has more important things to do than say eighty times “There’s a snake in my boot!” to keep Mattel happy. That’s where a key person in the franchise comes in: his brother, Jim Hanks. There is a brother in me Now, Jim has explained what his exact role is when his […]

And, frankly, Tom Hanks has more important things to do than say eighty times “There’s a snake in my boot!” to keep Mattel happy. That’s where a key person in the franchise comes in: his brother, Jim Hanks.

There’s a brother in me

Now, Jim has explained what his exact role is when his brother is unavailable. Hey, some might see it as a grievance, but for him, it’s an absolutely incredible experience. “The first thing I did was one of those pull toys from the first movie, when he says ‘You’re my favorite deputy,’ ‘There’s a snake in my boot,’ and things like that. They had processed the voice so much that they needed a clearer version, so I went and did it“.

In fact, Jim, who will take home a good amount of money from his participation, has declared to be “immensely grateful”, especially for opportunities like voicing Woody in Disney parks. On one particular roller coaster, Midway Mania, Jim suggested speaking to the kids as if he were their favorite teacher. And of course, they did. “That was really cool, they were very collaborative”.

It doesn’t seem like Jim Hanks will ever make it to the major leagues with Toy Story 6, but for now, he has been voicing a bunch of video games in the series since 1996. Even if we don’t know it, we are his favorite helpers.

The toys that have marked several generations and that you always dreamed of having are back

Six years after the release of Toy Story 4, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the rest of the iconic cast of Pixar’s longest-running franchise are back in Toy Story 5, which will be released in theaters on June 18. This new chapter promises to once again explore the meaning of childhood and the role that toys play in an increasingly screen-dominated world. A new trailer has been unveiled, hinting at the fundamental question that many are asking: what is the true function of a toy today?

To infinity… Or at least to the fifth part

Since its debut in 1995, Toy Story has been a cornerstone in the history of animated cinema, known for its ability to tackle significant themes about childhood, friendship, and the passage of time. The return of these beloved characters, who have resonated with several generations, generates considerable anticipation among the millions of fans.

The trailer suggests that the narrative of Toy Story could confront the challenge of the relevance of toys in an era where children spend more time in front of screens than playing with physical objects.The evolution of childhood, driven by digitalization, provides an interesting backdrop on which the story will be woven. Woody’s voice, still voiced by Tom Hanks, and other cast members promise to bring new layers of emotion and humor to the sequel.

The arrival of this new installment promises to rekindle the love for toys in a contemporary context driven by technology, but, of course, alongside the characters that have marked a generation. Will we cry as much as we did with its third part?

The director of Toy Story 5 says there are very good reasons to make a fifth installment of Toy Story

Andrew Stanton, director of Toy Story 5, has come to the defense of the iconic Pixar franchise amid criticism questioning the need for more sequels. In a recent interview with Empire magazine, Stanton addressed the concerns of some fans who feel that the saga is being stretched too thin and that its quality could be compromised by the number of installments. He highlighted the evolution of the series, distinguishing between the original Toy Story trilogy and what came after, including Toy Story 4, released in 2019. There is much to explore in the Toy Story universe […]

There is much to explore in the Toy Story universe

Stanton emphasized that the original trilogy provided a complete narrative that resonated deeply with the audience. However, he argued that the subsequent sequels have found new ways to explore the Toy Story universe and offer stories that are equally meaningful. “Each film has its own stamp and purpose,” declared Stanton, who is known for his work on other acclaimed feature films like Finding Nemo and Wall-E.

Despite fears of a possible market saturation, the director emphasized that Pixar’s focus has always been more on quality than quantity. Toy Story 4 was received with mostly positive reviews, suggesting that, at least in certain aspects, the franchise still has much to offer. With Toy Story 5 on the way, Stanton is determined to uphold the franchise’s legacy, ensuring that each new story is designed to resonate with a new generation of viewers.

Although detractors have expressed their fears about the future of the franchise, Stanton seems convinced that the story of Woody and his friends still has many adventures to tell. With the promise of innovation and emotional storytelling, Toy Story fans can expect more surprises in the upcoming installment.

Quentin Tarantino believes that the best Toy Story movie is your favorite and that he hates the same one you hate

Quentin Tarantino, the renowned filmmaker known for works like Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood and Inglourious Basterds, has expressed his opinion on the Toy Story saga, stating that the original trilogy is perfect and did not require a fourth installment. In a recent episode of the podcast Club Random, Tarantino expressed his admiration for Toy Story 3, considering it one of the best films he has seen, highlighting the emotional depth it brings to the conclusion of Woody and Buzz’s story.

For once, Tarantino has the same taste as you

The Toy Story saga, which began in 1995, has been acclaimed not only by audiences but also by critics, achieving an impressive 100% on Rotten Tomatoes for the first film. The following installments, Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3, continued this streak of success, with the third surpassing $1 billion at the box office, becoming a milestone in the history of animated cinema.

Despite its box office success, Toy Story 4 was not received with the same praise by everyone, according to Tarantino’s view. This latest film also managed to surpass the $1 billion mark, but its critical reception was more divided, leading many, including Tarantino, to question the need for a continuation after such a powerful conclusion as that of the third installment.

In a surprising turn for Pixar fans, the company has confirmed that Toy Story 5 is in development and is scheduled for release on June 19, 2026. With the legacy of the original trilogy in mind, fans are eager to see if this new installment can live up to expectations or perhaps continue the debate about the perfection of the saga that will delight both movie and animation lovers alike. Meanwhile, it seems that Tarantino has no intention of joining the frenzy of the upcoming sequel.

Disney has announced an original movie titled Hexed, scheduled for release on November 25, 2026. This announcement comes at a time when the studio is under scrutiny from the public and critics due to the recent commercial failure of Wish, which has raised questions about its production strategy in a constantly changing film market.

An original movie based on magic

Despite being in the process of developing several sequels, such as Zootopia 2 and Frozen 3, Disney has decided to blend its focus on franchises with original productions. Hexed, directed by Josie Trinidad and Jason Hand, will tell the story of a peculiar teenager and her competitive mother who will discover magical powers that transport them to another world. This film represents a ray of hope in a landscape dominated by remakes and sequels, using nostalgia as a commercial strategy.

During the recent Destination D23, where important announcements from the company are made, it was revealed that Pixar is also following this trend, announcing the arrival of Hoppers, Toy Story 5, and other sequels for the coming years, reflecting the same approach by Disney in seeking a balance between continuing franchises and creating original content. However, this raises questions about whether Disney is aligning its offerings with the expectations of today’s audience, which may be looking for fresh narratives instead of familiar stories.

The criticism focuses on the fact that the company seems to have relegated its original productions in favor of exploiting its successful franchises, which could alienate an audience seeking new cinematic experiences. As market trends evolve, only time will tell if this move by Disney to introduce Hexed is a wise decision or just another one in its usual strategy of sequels and remakes.
