But through it all, Toy Story 3 remains the same. Zooming out, it’s a decade bifurcated into Obama-era hope and a challenging, upsetting reckoning of those ideals. I’ve moved from South Williamsport, Pennsylvania, to Pittsburgh, to Brooklyn I graduated college my mom got cancer, then beat it we had to sell my childhood home I’ve had bummer heartaches, fist-bumping successes, and met my best friend. I just recently watched that movie again, and it put me right back in that theater seat in 2010, halfway between high school and college, tears streaming down my face knowing that what Andy was going through onscreen was what I’d be going through in just a few weeks. Just like Andy, we were letting go of all the routines and comforts that had comprised our last 18 years of being, and headed into the unknown. In just a few weeks after its release, we’d be headed to college. It felt appropriate to have these three separate viewings of this specific film, because for people exactly my age, it was more than just a goodbye to Buzz, Woody, Rex, Mr. One of the major film releases I remember from 2010 was Toy Story 3, and the reason is because I saw it three times in theaters – once with my dad, once with my mom, and once with my closest high school friends.
