@Sandy_Nicholson: @sweettweenie You're a monster. Probably. #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:01 pm           



 
@TaroJ: #scriptchat I was holding it in at the end, a fitting send off for the characters and a great series of films
September 4, 2011, 7:01 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: @Sandy_Nicholson erhm, uhm. I'm going with no. Probably #scriptchat

@Mina_Zaher: I haven't read Toy Story 3's script. How does it compare to the film? #scriptchat

@sweettweenie: @frogfall welcome #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:02 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @Mina_Zaher It's pretty exact. #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:03 pm           



 
@TaroJ: #scriptchat amazing how a kids film is squarely aiming at adults with it's jokes etc yet hitting the mark for kids as well
September 4, 2011, 7:03 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: @Mina_Zaher I didn't make it to the end of the script but seemed word by word #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:03 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: @alli_and_that @Mina_Zaher it is the For Your Consideration version, so I would imagine they would have made the script match #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@TaroJ: #scriptchat no matter how clever it is or the great dialogue my 4 year old still can't stop laughing at Mr Potato Head flat as a pancake :-)

@alli_and_that: @TaroJ Pixar is great at that though - because the CORE THEMES are understandable on multiple levels. #scriptchat

@alli_and_that: I think it's great that the characters on Toy Story always hit and twist your expectations slightly. Barbie & Ken, for instance. #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:11 pm           



 
@TaroJ: #scriptchat I loved the way they made a sequel where Andy etc aged in real time like the audience. Very original for a kids film

@sweettweenie: #scriptchat very interesting bonus on disc on writing the 1st act
September 4, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@Sandy_Nicholson: @TaroJ Yeah, and it let it highlighted that we've grown with it too, 15 years of these characters. #scriptchat
September 4, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @TaroJ @sandy_nicholson But in the climax of Aladdin, you know Al will save Jas from the hourglass. Less jeopardy in pure Disney #scriptchat

@TaroJ: @Mina_Zaher @sweettweenie @grantmccall true, but in the world of kids animation, more characters also means more toys to sell. #scriptchat

@grantmccall: @alli_and_that Yeah for sure, and it also added the bit of tension between Buzz & Woody again. #scriptchat

September 5, 2011, 12:27 am           



 
@SteveHarshfield: @jeannevb - TS3 didn't try to pick up where TS2 left off. They acknowledge original fans w/18yo Andy & tap nostalgia for youth. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:27 am           



 
@alextvwatch: I must pop into #scriptchat to say that I love the Toy Story movies. I am a part of the generation that grew up with them, so they are (1/2)
September 5, 2011, 12:27 am           



 
@davidproenza: Ken Doll (surname?) is probably one of my favorite (and best written) characters in the last decade. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:28 am           



 
@michael_scott2: I'd like to be able to leave my eyeball somewhere and still use it to see things. #scriptchat

@alextvwatch: (2/2) Near and dear to my heart. I'm not a writer but I wanted to share this. (Partially b/c TS talk in my feed made me jealous) #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:29 am           



 
@craigbergonzoni: @jeannevb As with all sequels I wonder, how well would it have worked without the previous films? It would holdup pretty good. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:29 am           



 
@jeannevb: TS3 was a great example of conveying "the ticking clock" #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:29 am           



 
@ElectricianPlus: @davidproenza I love what they did with Ken Doll in the proposal scene. #scriptchat

@BlueRidgefilms: Hi everyone! #scriptchat #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:30 am           



 
@elizabethkarr: @jeannevb After seeing TS3, thought anti-daycare folks would embrace it. That day care was equivalent of Jane Eyre orphanage. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:30 am           



 
@rachlanger: @jeannevb How sustainable do you think this series is? Trilogy, or many more to come? #ToyStory3 #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:30 am           



 
@elizabethkarr: Of course, the villians in TS3 were not the daycare workers, rather the toys. Which was a brilliant twist. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:30 am           



 
@SarahAlexis4: Yes, and clear character goals. RT: @jeannevb TS3 was a great example of conveying "the ticking clock" #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:32 am           



 
@jeannevb: @rachlanger I feel a sense of closure w this one, but who knows what they'll come up with next. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:32 am           



 
@ElectricianPlus: It's the detail. Watch the Bonus scenes and they talk about the "Barbie/Ken" details in this...and every scene. Amazing work. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:32 am           



 
@jeannevb: @craigbergonzoni I think this one would have held up great as a standalone #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:33 am           



 
@jeannevb: @ElectricianPlus I love bonus scenes #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:33 am           



 
@RobyMB: Anyone think "The Claw" was a Deus ex machina? #scriptchat #ts3
September 5, 2011, 12:33 am           



 
@SarahAlexis4: @RobyMB Hmmm... It was controlled by the aliens though, wasn't it? #scriptchat

@michael_scott2: I love the lazy eye on the baby...scaryn #scriptchat

@IngridElkner: Did anyone feel something... off, about TS3? Something that didn't sit right, run smooth, feel organic? #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:35 am           



 
@davidproenza: @RobyMB I want to say yes, but it was essentially set up since the first movie, which I thought was genius. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:35 am           



 
@michael_scott2: @IngridElkner Ken's 180 #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:36 am           



 
@ElectricianPlus: @IngridElkner there was more "down" in this one. Less "fun." Why kids didn't "love" it like the 1st. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:36 am           



 
@RobyMB: @SarahAlexis4 @davidproenza Agree. They alluded to it enough that it wasn't a shock. Felt weird the first viewing. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:37 am           



 
@jeannevb: Does anyone know if they originally planned more than one film and had the arc for the trilogy mapped out? #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:37 am           



 
@simon_maxwell: "the ticking clock" worked on many levels. The toys & incinerator, the boy leaving for university. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:37 am           



 
@elizabethkarr: subtle propaganda but day care portrayed as dark & scary. RT @simon_maxwell @jeannevb @elizabethkarr thinks that is far fetched #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:37 am           



 
@IngridElkner: @ElectricianPlus I love down, but it wasn't just that. Something really didn't gel for me, even though I loved it. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:38 am           



 
@rachlanger: @jeannevb I would speculate no, since the original was one of the first of its kind, but I have no proof. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:38 am           



 
@RobyMB: @jeannevb Nope. They got the Brain Trust together to map out #3 #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:38 am           



 
@elizabethkarr: Someone had temerity to schedule BBQ during #scriptchat. Bye & Happy Labor Day weekend to all. @jeannevb Safe travels! #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:40 am           



 
@davidproenza: @jeannevb I don't think so... the sequel was supposed to be direct to video and they used the infamous 'Brain Trust' for 3. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:40 am           



 
@RobyMB: Bedtime! Night #scriptchat. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:41 am           



 
@ElectricianPlus: @jeannevb Hate to keep going to "Bonus" scenes but they are really good for this one. They weren't sure there'd be a 3rd. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:41 am           



 
@kiribatiwriter: @jeannevb Pretty sure wasn't mapped as trilogy. Original plans for 3rd movie got scrapped. #scriptchat TS2 was sup'sed to go str8 2 DVD.

@davidproenza: I loved the opening, the 'live action' version of Andy's imagination from the first movie - it came full circle #scriptchat

@jeannevb: @rachlanger I think the key is to make you forget youre watching an animated film #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:52 am           




@walterbiscardi: @jeannevb Agreed. Animation allows unlimited freedom in production, but still need an excellent story to draw in audience #scriptchat

@making_a_scene: The old man that touched up Woody. Wait... That's TS2. Oops. #scriptchat

@walterbiscardi: @jeannevb Just like 3D is something that can be used to great dramatic effect, but usually falls to cheap gimmics. #scriptchat

@davidproenza: @jeannevb Ken, without question. But Lots O'Huggin was extremely fleshed out and sympathetic villain. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:54 am           




@rachlanger: @jeannevb Agree. Do you think they make the characters seem ultra relateable to help you suspend disbelief? #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:55 am           




@SarahAlexis4: I'd imagine the main difference is in the action/description. Must really paint the full picture of what's being seen. #scriptchat
September 5, 2011, 12:55 am           




@rachlanger: @LisaFromNYC @SarahAlexis4 Attempted my first animated short - it was WAY harder than I'd expected! Tough to visualize! #scriptchat

@SarahAlexis4: @davidproenza I agree about Lotso. I loved to hate him, but at certain points you feel for him a bit. #scriptchat

@jeannevb: @rachlanger it definitely helps #scriptchat

@walterbiscardi: @davidproenza @SarahAlexis4 There really shouldn't be a different should there? Still camera angles, still characters, etc.. #scriptchat

@jbonnell: @davidproenza "Difference?" I don't think there is. Its a medium. TS could have been done live action but would have been diff #scriptchat
