![]() Toy Story 4 understands this as a film, and it’s time that all who love this series tip their hats respectfully, and make their way into the future. That’s a lot of time to be hanging around with a pull-string cowboy and a Space Ranger, and while it hasn’t been wasted, it’s definitely time to see what lies beyond their corner of the world. The Toy Story movies have given the world a lot to enjoy over the course of almost a quarter of a century. However, if the company wants to stay fresh, it will keep to the promise of moseying onto the next wagon trail and reaching for the sky with new ideas. ![]() Considering how Toy Story 4 went from a movie that needed to convince the world it should exist into the success it currently is, it's easy to see why sequels may seem like a good idea. If new paths aren’t worn, and new trails aren’t blazed, the next Incredibles or Wall-E will never be found. While the top brass have been lucky with the franchises they’ve tended to so far, it has to be said that when the people at Pixar are at their best, they’re creating new worlds. The last big reason that Toy Story 4 should be the final entry in the proper canon of Toy Story films is, quite frankly, one Pixar itself has already mentioned as an ongoing concern: the studio needs to start moving away from sequels. Pixar Should Be Creating New Franchises To Experiment With (Like, say, a buddy cop dramedy entitled Ducky and Bunny: Plush Rush Miami). So there are always opportunities to give someone else the spotlight in new, compact adventures that are solely meant to entertain. We saw this work well in the years between Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4, through shorts and specials like “Partysaurus Rex” and Toy Story of Terror! The tradition is about to continue too, with Forky Asks A Question set to be a series of Disney+ shorts. So while renegotiating the landmark talent for further films might cost Disney/Pixar a pretty penny, shorts with some of the newer toys or even new adventures with the older supporting toys from Toy Story history just might be the ticket. Not to mention, when you look to the contracts of actors like Tim Allen, their obligations look to be covered after Toy Story 4. It’s just that as far as the franchise’s proper entries go, that mine has been stripped. Shorts With New Characters Would Be More ExcitingĪs I'm sticking firmly to the belief that Toy Story 4 should be the final film in this iteration, that’s not to say that there aren’t tons of toy stories in this universe to be told. ![]() Again, another story arc has been closed and finished perfectly, without a need for further meddling. Plus, if anyone should be there to help Forky train Knifey in the ways of being a proper toy, the formerly delusional spaceman is the best candidate. But now, with Bonnie Hunt’s Dolly in charge and Buzz finding his "inner voice," there should already be an easy way for life without Woody to work. Meanwhile, Buzz Lightyear went from being an imposing presence to a trusted friend who knew how to co-lead the gang of toys through the complexities and adventures in life with Andy and Bonnie. So Woody’s story arc in the Toy Story universe has come full circle. The cowboy toy who was always obsessed with being owned by a kid has now learned to loosen up and live the life of a lost toy, independently. While we’re on the subject of Woody and Buzz, we’ve seen these characters grow to the point where Toy Story 4 puts them in the places they were always working toward.
