This is Ryan with 300 words (or less) to make your Monday a little less taxing.
If Day & Night (the new Pixar short) doesn’t address being afraid of things that are different (race, gender, sexuality) then Ken from Toy Story 3 picks up the slack.
Some may say Woody is the main character in Toy Story 3, but Ken steals the show. Flamboyant in his mannerisms, Ken masquerades around Sunny Side Day Care in sequin covered ensembles which he insists to model for anyone that will let him. With more costumes changes and better hand writing than Barbie, it is impossible to ignore the elephant in the room.
Ken is in the closet.
This makes Toy Story 3 absolutely hilarious as well as complicated. If you haven’t already, check it out, and I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

the best part was when the Bookworm guy thought Ken was wearing high heels instead of suspecting it to be Barbie lolololol…I mean the scene where he’s trying on all his clothes for Barbie..yeah…soooooooo gay, and the rest of the toys pretty much though Ken was gay…
but the movie was great..it nicely ended the Toy Story series…I don’t think it was Pixar’s best, or my fave one, but it was nicely done and I really enjoyed it
Chickengirl, 1 of my fav. parts as well (I just didn’t want 2 spoil it all).
Also agree w/ your review. Very nice ending of the series, but not 1 of my favorites. Nonetheless, still supports the notion Pixar is incapable of a flop!
