Hahahah! Watching it with my rather uninterested two year old I really choked up at the holding-hands scene. Kid's movie? Pah. Wasted on the little 'uns.
shareI'm 23, male, and I still remember having 8 years old and watching the first toy story in theaters...
it's incredible how a movie could grow so much inside us and watching something as "lifeless" as animated toys given "life" with such a great story and characterization, how years go by...and you can remember so much of your childhood, seeing this movie was proof of that, we all grow up, but those memories..damn...I would never give them up for anything in the world
left a happy tear down my cheek :(...

I never cry in movies, it's a rare occurrence (Schinlder's List). But in the end when they were all in the incinerator and started holding hands, I flippin lost it, the tears were a poorin. And my friends were laughing at me, I will officially never live that moment down.

You all are a bunch of pussies!
(And I'm with you all the way.)
I was very very close but held it in somehow. With that last scene a wave of nostalgia swept over, and I started longing for that childhood again so much. I look at my dusty Toy Story 1 and 2 VHS tapes and a lump forms at the back of my throat. So much memories, so much good times, so hard to say goodbye to it all. Never felt as emotional at a movie before.
The time is now, rise up from destitution
We won't lay down, resist the persecution
31 and cried. Thought I wouldn't. For me too it was nostalgic. Made me sad to be a grown-up. Luckily the credits kick in and bring the mood back up. Incredible how Pixar does this. Seriously - is it possible for them to make a bad movie?
shareI went four times in the theaters, each time, either I cried, my friends cried, and/or the whole theater cried.
I lost it at the Incinerator very minorly, but balled at the ending, but the first day my friend Sun and I went and we both cried together. I had warned him every one said we'd be balling at the end. He didn't believe me, but I looked over and noticed him lifting one part of his 3D glass and wiping tears away. I teased him a little, but he simply said "Oh, shut up". I asked him when we left what finally got him going, he told me, like me the scene that affected him most was when Andy was saying goodbye to/talking about all his toys.
Having grown up in China most of his life, to me that spoke volumes on how deeply it reaches people around the world. Since, we grew up with it over here in the states, but Sun watched them back in China, and grew up with it on the exact same level. :)
All my friends from then on who I saw it with said the same thing. We had all just graduated, so we felt like we were Andy in our own way. So it was really, really sad for us.
I was 18. And I'm now 19 and bought the Blu Ray right after my classes for the day (I'm a College Freshman) it was my absolute favorite movie of 2010, and my second favorite movie of all time. A masterpiece in every way, shape, and form.
I even cried upon watching it at home when I watched it on my Blu Ray for the first time to be honest.
Not really, I did have that experience during the Lotso flashback though when he got replaced
shareNot at the end, but at the part where Daisy's toys get left behind and the story of how Lotso came to be mean made me teary eyed. It was the Baby's reaction that really got to me.
shareI'm a freshman guy in college, and me and a bunch of my friends got the DVD because we love this movie and one of them didn't see it yet, so last night we stayed up and watched it. All the girls went to bed, all the guys stayed up and watched it.
Right before the incinerator scene, my friend calls out "Okay if I cry, no one judge me."
By the end of the movie, the entire room was bawling. The one who hadn't seen it before was practically sobbing.
This movie is about so much more than toys talking...all the issues of rejection, moving on, growing up hit really, really hard. And as someone who saw the first one when he was actually Andy's age in all the movies, it practically slapped me in the face.
When I saw it in theatres, I will never forget the moment Andy's mom walks into his room and just stops and looks at how it's all empty, because I was just going through moving stuff out of my room for school. While of course everyone can relate to it, i have to say this is kind of my generation's movie haha.
Without a doubt one of my favorite movies of all time.
I'm 18. I saw this with the youth group and I did not cry. I thought it was very emotional. But, I just bought the Blu-Ray, and when Andy had to give Woody to Bonnie... It hit me. I tried to hold it back, because I didn't want my mom to think something was wrong with me, lol... He had to give away his Woody doll, dang it! (*sniff*)
shareFinally watched Toy Story 3 and I also cried. I'm 24 and would consider myself quite a macho kinda person but I had to shed a few tears at the end. I saw the first Toy Story film when it came out in the cinema and to see Andy and the toys departing at the end made me choke up a little. It's amazing how a film can play with your emotions. Fantastic film and what a superb ending to Toy Story. Well done to everyone that was involved in this film. Keep up the good work Pixar!
shareThe genius of Pixar is the way they gather in your emotions without ever manipulating them. The stories are just so earnest, so sincere. This one especially hit home for me. Up was emotional and heart-wrenching at times, but didn't cut to the core of me the way Toy Story 3 did.
Perhaps it is because I grew up with Toy Story the same way I grew up with my own toys. The first film came out with I was 8, then final one now that I am 23. So watching the final brought back all the joy, wonder, and innocence that I felt when I first met these characters.
Pixar so masterfully understands the relationship a kid (especially a young boy) has with his toys. They represent innocence, loyalty, friendship, etc. And when Andy has to say goodbye to his toys, it is as if he has "known" them all along for the "living" things they are. They have never spoken to him, moved an inch in his presence. When Andy is around, they are hunks of plastic. Yet the emotion is just as real as if they talked to him and interacted with him everyday.
Everyone in my theater was in tears and damn close after the last scene. My eyes were definitely wet, and I had to play it off with the whole "oh I think I have something in my eye" bit. Didn't fool anyone though.
The end also made me tear up because the little girl reminded me so much of my now 15 year old daughter as a young one. This movie really was THE BEST movie of 2010 and I think it was by far, THE BEST ever Animated movie made.
