Toy Story 5

While there are far worse sequels out there, Toy Story 5 proves that the IP's heart has been mined out. It's time to move on.

Rating Summary
Toy Story 5 suffers from a lack of focus with an unclear main plot as well as a secondary plots that only serve the main story as McGuffins and time-filler as opposed to an intricate story whose parts firmly support and build the whole.

While children likely won't care, those who grew up with the franchise might also take exception with the treatment of Buzz and Woody, who are only in Toy Story 5 long enough for a quality bait and switch from trailer to final product.

Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, and the rest of the gang return to Bonnie’s room, where their role as beloved toys faces an unexpected new threat: the rise of high-tech gadgets and a clever tablet named Lilypad. As playtime itself is redefined by electronics, the toys must adapt, unite, and prove that imagination and heart still matter most. Toy Story 5 brings the beloved friends back for a battle between classic toys and the digital age.

    Not Worth ItWokeC-

    This movie is super woke! Jesse the cowgirl toy takes center stage and they make sure you know it. Also, they emasculate the male toys (Woody and Buzz Lightyear) is the movie by making them dependent on Jesse in almost every way.

    I don’t wanna spoil it, but there’s a male toy that gets walked to the altar with a toy that calls him, “my son“ to get married and the girl toy is the one waiting at the altar for him. Like, the bride was acting like the groom and the groom was acting like the bride.

    Anyway, the movie oozes female dominance over males. Toy story five is just another woke boss girl movie
