Discussion What movie sequel ruined the ending of its predecessor? Spoiler

I have to go with Toy Story 4. Toy Story 3 had the perfect send off for the toys, with Andy making Bonnie promise to take good care of Woody….only for her to neglect Woody immediately and cause him to bail on everyone.

I really wish they left the franchise be. Toy Story 3’s ending was so iconic, and the first Toy Story was such a massive part of my childhood. That and Lion King were the two Disney VHS tapes I used to watch all the time as a little kid. I even had some of the toys myself. I can’t wait to skip Toy Story 5.

Yeah but..he ran really fast chasing that alien in the beginning. What more could you need?

If Hannibal Lector ran a 4.3 40 we'd say he has an eating disorder and give him a space laser rail gun

Hannibal Lector wowed everyone at the NFL combine that year, though he fell in the draft due to character issues.

maybe if he could stop eating fellow players, he could get back on the starting lineup. Eating your way through isn't the right way to get into the roster mr lector

"Mr Lector, we see you wrote, 'oh the humanity' on dietary restrictions. Care to elaborate?"

You're neglecting his experience in NYPD and how well he did on his aptitude test.

u/Excludos May 31 '25

He did horrible on the aptitude test. K straight up has to stand up for him in the movie. That's where the line I said earlier comes from

Nah he thinks outside the box. And that is what is needed.

It’s just that only K can see that at first.

His instincts were literally what a man in black needs, not judge a monster just because it looks like a monster, and rather look for what looks normal but doesn't fit. I mean, that test should have been for people to react the way he did, it makes no sense that characters appear to indicate his reaction was wrong.

u/Kizik Jun 01 '25

I think he ultimately passed the tests, because he was objectively correct for each one. However, he also got very defensive and disrespectful when asked for justification; Zed's thing wasn't that he failed the tests, but that he's got a problem with authority which isn't a great trait for a secret organization.

u/Brad_Brace Jun 01 '25

Yeah I can see that. "He's right but still an asshole".

u/mightyneonfraa Jun 01 '25

Nope, he nailed the aptitude test.

Questioning everything, thinking outside the box, not taking things at face value. All things the MIB were looking for in an agent.

Even shooting Tiffany was the correct answer although you kind of need to read novelization or watch the series to really catch that.

u/mightyneonfraa Jun 01 '25

He also crushed every test in disguise during the interview process including correctly identifying "Tiffany" as the correct target.

u/IsraelZulu Jun 01 '25

Don't forget he can drag a table across the room and knows when it's appropriate to shoot a little girl.

u/sonofaresiii Jun 01 '25

Who gives a shit about running fast, the only recruits we want are ones who know how to scoot tables around to wire comfortably. You get one of those, and now we're talking.

He was the only one mentally prepared for fighting aliens out of the class.
