I remember being reluctant to see it at first. Although I couldn't say exactly what "General Mobilization" meant at the time, I always felt that things like "General Mobilization" were nothing more than the kind of TV news where a group of adults was assembled and then let them run around. Means nothing.
Seeing that I was going to waste three movie tickets that seemed expensive at the time, my mother and my father coaxed me out.
My mother told me that this was a cartoon, and my father bought me the new St. Michael’s watermelon popsicle, and also bought me the KFC Original Chicken Burger, which I thought was the most delicious in the world at the time, for dinner.
At that time, my family lived very close to the studio, and I arrived after peeling off the chocolate "melon seeds" of the watermelon popsicle, nibbling off the remaining red and green popsicles, and eating the hamburger: I was very disappointed by the boring appearance of the building, like a big brick. And along the way, I thought that since it is a "cinema", there must be high walls around it.
At that time, I was just eight years old, in the first grade of elementary school, and went to the cinema for the first time in my life.
That year, my mother had just passed her 30th birthday and was only ten years older than me now.
I think at that time, I could never have imagined that one day in fifteen years, I would be watching its sequel in the cinema.
It's impossible to think that fifteen years later, the owner, Andy, is going to college and no longer playing with toys.
It's impossible to imagine that in the next fifteen years, the Pixar "Finding" series began (thanks to GDZJ's great translation): Monsters, Finding Nemo, Cars, The Incredibles, Food, Robots, Flying House ...and it's impossible to think that as you get older, you will cry more and more easily when you watch it, so that when you get to this part, your nose is a little sore at the beginning.
Of course, it is even more impossible to imagine that on this day, fifteen years later, I have graduated from university and my mother will be celebrating her 50th birthday.
When I first fell in love with Pixar, I thought maybe its greatness was that the plot was so playful and that each character had a personality.
Later, I found that its greatness lies in its technology of excellence. It is this vivid and realistic animation effect that makes it invincible in the animation industry.
Later, I discovered that its greatness lies in the people who draw these stories: the same story, in the eyes of children, is pure hilarity, but when it is shown to adults, it can't hold back tears...
What kind of person should write this story ? Ah: He is mature enough to understand the various separations and growths experienced in life, but his perspective is so close to the child, and he can describe the world through the eyes of a child so clearly.
Like the strawberry cuddle bear, Barbie and Ken, the baby, the spring dog, the pull-string doll, the pigs, the potato couple, and even that smiling phone... which one didn't we play with when we were kids.
It's just, "In the changing life, time is the biggest thief." In the past fifteen years, time has gradually stole our toys, our pocketbooks, and our favorite cold drinks. We stole our movie tickets, the little red flowers on the blackboard of the primary school, and the transcripts that the parents signed in the middle school...
I think the biggest reason for this 3 tearjerker is that it makes 15 years pass by. The child is displayed naked before our eyes. Let us seem to have been looted overnight, only to suddenly realize that there are so many external and internal things gradually disappearing.
I remember watching Toy Story when I was a kid, and my favorite was Cowboy Woody, although he was not as dazzling as Buzz Lightyear, and he was jealous and a little wary... but I liked it more. When I watched 3 this time, the most moving part of the film was that Andy introduced Woody to the little girl at the end of the film: "This is Woody, my best friend..."
Perhaps the biggest change in the past 15 years is that When we watched 3, it was more about Andy's feelings than Woody's.
I seemed to have heard the phrase "go, go to grow up..."
but Andy had no choice but to walk on without looking back.
So do we.
