Toy Story

As much as we like to say that the holidays are about family, love, giving, etc., ask any child in the nation what Christmas is about, and you'll inevitably get the same answer...TOYS!

That's right, folks...Toy Story 3 is officially available for rent! This final installment in the runaway hit series brings back all your old favorites-Woody, Buzz, Slink (now voiced by Blake Clarke, who does an admirable job of filling the late Jim Varney's extremely large shoes), Barbie, Jessie, the Potato Heads, Hamm, and Rex are all back, along with some new characters, including Lotso, the creepily strawberry-scented Losto Huggin Bear, and Ken, who sweeps Barbie off her feet and into his dreamhouse.

This movie takes the franchise to a whole new level, and lives up to the first two in hilarity, and even surpasses them in emotional depth. I'll be honest-I've seen it 4 times and still get choked up every time. Including the time last week I watched it at the store and got choked up while working. Sorry about that, folks.

Moral of the story: rent it today and have a great family night in with the kids and a movie you'll actually enjoy for a change!
