Pixar continues to mine the Toy Story characters for every penny of merchandising. They keep the franchise alive by the crisis created by Andy growing up and leaving for college. Will he bring his toy cowboy? Not if he wants to get girls. Woody and the rest of the toys accidentally get left on the curb for the garbage truck, but in the first of many last minute escapes end up in a day care center instead. At first it appears they have landed in paradise, until the toddlers show up and nearly destroy them. Their political rights are stripped away by the ruthless Lotso, a stuffed bear dictator who controls the fates of every toy. Woody and friends manage another escape, including a harrowing encounter with a furnace. Only a sentimental ending where the toys are given away by Andy to a neighborhood girl manages any kind of real emotion, the rest is fabricated nonsense.
