Film Review: Toy Story 3
by Dave Minkus
Score: 9.5/10
Toy Story 3 is what should be the final chapter in the Toy Story series. It follows what’s left of our toy friends as they get donated to a daycare and how they try to get home and bond. I know, that sounds dry and boring. To me, I thought that was exactly what I was in for, too. The trailers did absolutely nothing for me and I went into this movie prepared to be let down for the first time. I tried to work up excitement to see the new Pixar flick and it just didn’t happen. The only reason I say all this is so you get the full meaning of what I have to say when I tell you that Toy Story 3 is the kind of movie I point to when I want to argue that film is an art form. It is the essence of film at its most beautiful. Yeah, that surprised me too. This might be a long review, so buckle up and get ready for the ride.
SGR Episode 117 - Remember Me
No, this one is most definitely not a joke. Well, it’s a joke, but Dave and Ethan actually do discuss the bomb that is Remember Me. If you’re worried about us treating the film with kid gloves, don’t. We pretty much take a baseball bat to this movie.

Ok, not really, but I don’t want to just keep posting “No Topic” when we don’t get to a topic. We still have fun, though.
75 Lost Hollywood Films Have Been Found
A vault in New Zealand is being called a time capsule of Hollywood. This vault contains 75 movies, including Upstream by John Ford, that were thought to be lost to the ages. The collection includes films from 1898 through 1929. The best part is that 70% of the nitrate prints are complete and a majority of them have color tinting. Hollywood silent films were distributed worldwide and hundreds more could still be in archives across the globe.
We will find those one day, but for now we have 75 more films to dissect.
