Hey has Tim Allen ever given any performance even close to as good as his Buzz?
Like, even in the same echalon?

I'm kind of surprised to hear people didn't like Toy Story 2. I thought it was basically universally loved and it's arguably the best of the three movies.

I dunno about the saddest Disney song. But i think we can all agree about the best disney song.
I remember Home Improvement being pretty good, and am also a respected critic of accurate bowel movements in movies. For instance, in Season 2 Episode 13 of HBO's "The Sopranos", the noises associated with Tony's gastrointestinal distress do not accurately portray the noises associated with that condition.

Be Prepared is my personal favorite
But Hellfire is also very good
And I'd probably round out my top three with Poor Unfortunate Souls
I don't like movies that lionise organised crime, so I don't think I'll like this. See also: every British movie, peaky blinders.
I like how in most American organised crime movies, the characters tend to eat shit by the end of the film. They do terrible things, then terrible things happen to them.
In Guy Ritchie English gangster movies, someone always gets away in the end with the loot.
Like crime movies as a genre are typically about a hero who lives in a broken system, and so the only way they can succeed is to circumvent the normal social system and rise up through crime.
But then they are victims of their own success, as their elevation on top of a new unjust system just turns them into what they were resisting in the first place.
So their inevitable destruction is both a moral lesson - crime doesn't pay - as well as reinforcing the condemnation against the fat cats at the top of the system in the first place.
If the moviemaker is purposefully trying to subvert that formula than hey, that's fine and dandy.
But I get the impression that for fellows like Guy Ritchie, they just think the criminal thing is cool, and subversion doesn't even occur to them.
A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

Boy. I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

I feel like Ritchie at least tries to avoid that by having the main characters 'heroes' always be sort of the lesser evil - they don't usually end up as mob bosses or what have you, just a few guys trying to scrape by in the middle of a bunch of nonsense with really bad guys around.

Moana probably has the highest density of songs I like in any Disney movie
I don't think there are any others whose soundtrack I will just listen to straight through

I totally had the perception that toy story 2 was a surprisingly good sequel, but that it was uncommon to hold it in higher regard than the first movie
I'm kind of surprised to hear people didn't like Toy Story 2. I thought it was basically universally loved and it's arguably the best of the three movies.
Toy Story 2
Toy Story 3
Toy Story
I think the highs are higher in Toy Story 3, and I think it's one of the movies that weaponizes nostalgia for the franchise from a thematic perspective better than I've ever seen, but it's not as consistently good as 2.
edit: but from the moment they enter the disposal factory to the credits that movie has me by the guts

Nah I don't really like it either.
I don't have an opinion on the saddest song but the best song is I Can Go The Distance and I will fight to the death anyone who disagrees.
I assume the Toy Story segment of KH3 will rival the greatest Greek tragedies
and inside the blade, another blade
it's the gom jabbar

I'll Make A Man Out Of You.
Lexi I consider you one of my best friends
And I like to think I know your tastes and reasoning for those tastes pretty well
I can never fucking tell if you actually love Home Improvement or if its the weirdest grift of all time
meet me out back, let's do this
I'll Make A Man Out Of You is probably the best Disney song that isn't a villain song, yeah, but it's a far cry from actual best song.
Why you gotta bring a concept like love into this?
I have watched a lot of Home Improvement.
anyone who thinks there is a Disney song better than this is lying to themselves

I would put songs from Moana, Coco and maybe even Frozen in a Disney Top 10
Yeahhhhh I love that song but it is absolutely a Problematic Fave at this point
I am Moana is basically a reprise of this but its the part that kills me in the movie
"Did they send me daughters, when I asked for sons?" is not great in-context but is also, ah, resonant beyond the context of the song.
this idiom is fascinating to me and I don't even know if I want to look up what it means
He's big but he cedes the movie to Moana when he needs to, and the performance has more depth than he's shown anywhere else
How Far I'll Go, Where You Are, We Know the Way, You're Welcome, Shiny, I Am Moana, Know Who You Are are all fantastic
It turns out Lin Manuel Miranda is very good at his job
I don't think there are any others whose soundtrack I will just listen to straight through
