Move over summer blockbuster action flicks, there’s a new group of 3D animations in town and they’re not fucking around! First Shrek 4 wouldn’t leave the number one spot for four weeks and now Toy Story 3 dominates the former champion The Karate Kid by over three times the gross — and lets not even talk about Jonah Hex. How sad. What a great cast and what a small gross.
Check out the top ten below…
It’s true. Most sequels suck. A great franchise is a rare breed. Lucky for us that doesn’t apply to Pixar! Not yet anyway. Toy Story 3 is hitting theaters and if you’re a true Woody/Buzz Lightyear fan (like many have been since 1995), you might have found yourself snooping around for some early buzz on Pixar’s first franchise.

Woody and the gang are back for the third (and final?) installment of the series that skyrocketed Pixar to the top 15 years ago in 1995. Holy crap… I’m old. So, has Pixar done it yet again? Or is the franchise getting moldy and stale (just like me)? Let’s lay it all out, shall we?
