I saw toy story 1 (TS1) and thought it was a great movie indeed. I didn't see TS2 because I didn't think they could top TS1 and I didn't want to be disappointed. I saw previews for TS3 3D and thought it looked not only promising but the fact it was going to be in 3D made it impossible to resist seeing it. The 3D CGI was amazing and brought a very real feel to the already familiar and beloved characters. Add the excellent comedy writing, stellar story telling and great voice-over acting of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen and company, the Barbie and Ken comedy element, and you have the best Toy Story movie ever. This Disney / Pixar movie was so well done, the emotional parts actually made my wife and I emotional. And the comedy was really very funny. Hats off. two thumbs and two big toes up to Disney and all involved for this gem of a movie.
