Meet My Favorite Actor
My favorite actor in Toy Story 3 is Wallace Shawn. In Toy Story 3, as well as the rest of
the Toy Story series, he played Rex the dinosaur. He was born on November 12, 1943
in New York City, New York. Wallace has had a huge career. He has been an actor in
movies, on TV, in video games, plays and has even written pieces. The first movie that
he starred in was called, Manhattan. Some more popular movies that he has starred in
are, The Fox and the Hound, The Princess Bride, A Goofy Movie, Clueless, Monsters
Inc., The Haunted Mansion, The Incredibles, and Chicken Little.
Toy Story 3 Review
Toy Story 3 was the third movie created in the Toy Story series. It is about Andy, the
owner of all the toys, is going off to college and he has to make up his mind about
what he is going to do with his toys. By accident, the toys were all supposed to go into
the attic, but his mom thought that they were going to the preschool, Sunnyside.
Woody was supposed to go to college with Andy, so the toys fight against the
preschoolers at Sunnyside, and Woody ends up at Beatrice’s house, a preschooler. In
the end, the toys are saved from a garbage incinerator, they show up at Andy’s house
and he decides to donate them all to Beatrice. The funniest part of Toy Story 3 was
when all of Andy’s toys showed up to Sunnyside and the kids played with them for the
first time. The toys were bitten, licked and chewed on. Although the movie was very
funny, and definitely the best of the 3, the saddest part was when Andy was donating
his toys to Beatrice before he took off for college.
A “Must see” Movie
Toy Story 3 is definitely worthy of a Academy Award. It is worthy because of the
plot line and how it fit in so well with the other movies. Although, in order to
understand the whole movie you should have seen the other two movies in the
series. This movie should win the best animated picture award, because there
were many parts of the movie that had different emotions displayed with good
shots.
