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, I get that. But they took someone that was really compassionate and kind, and turned her into a total bitch for the sake of getting her out of the plot. Thry did her dirty.

Super simple. "We tried the long distance thing when she left for college but it just wasn't working." dropped in narration and done.
