Description
"I know," Dolly smiled at Woody, smiling at Bonnie as she fidgeted in a dream. "You think you'll never really love again. Then she picks you up and holds you and you can't remember what it was like to be lonely."Where was she now, he wondered? Swimming with rainbow fish through sunken cities? Running through jungles of giant flowers? She had tucked him in beside her. Maybe she was singing in the streets of a little western town, where she would need a brave and loyal sheriff.
Had he ever been this happy?
I think I love Bonnie so much because she reminds me of my little sister (who is not so little now) when she was that age. Big dark eyes, cute as a bug's ear. She's always been so creative and funny and different, a galoshes-and-a-tutu kind of girl. And she was always sweet to her toys. She even had a Godzilla who had his own booties!
I hope it doesn't need to be said, but any inappropriate comments will get you deleted and blocked without prelude. Be nice.

That's pretty touching. I loved Toy Story 3 and this encapsulates the ending very well. It was a grand full-circle conclusion to a phenomenal story and this is a wonderful depiction of it's spirit.

Sweet is the word!
And the expression is perfect!
Congratulations!

At the end of the film, I still hoped Andy would keep the toys so he could give them to his kids someday. But if they had to move on, if it had to end the way it did, I'm glad Bonnie got them. She was my favorite character in the movie--even beating out FABULOUS! Ken.
I love this image. Bonnie is so sweet. Woody is so touching. I love your Toy Story works.

You gotta figure, if Bonnie's mom and Andy's mom know each other, maybe those toys will stay in basically the same circle.

I never got that, either. Sure, the rest of Andy's toys one can assume were bought just for him. But Andy's mom calls Woody a "family heirloom" in the second film, which I took to mean he was either her toy, or Andy's father's. Besides, Woody is worth a lot of money. Even if Andy doesn't want to play with him, why not keep him to give to his kids?
I don't know. I know the ending is meant to be a bittersweet take on growing up and showing that life goes on, but wouldn't it have been just as bittersweet to have the toys accept their attic confinement? Why not have an epilogue at the end where they're brought back out and the first thing we see from Woody's POV is a little boy who looks a lot like Andy (or maybe even a little girl)? And then we hear Andy's voice saying something like, "These were my toys when I was your age." The child picks Woody up, maybe hugs him, then picks up Buzz. Just like in the first movie, they smile at each other and know that they're home again.
Oh, now I've depressed myself. I mean, I love Bonnie, and like I said, if they had to move away from Andy I'm glad Bonnie is their new owner. I just wish Andy had kept them.

"It's just right." I think that says it all for this piece.

The one thing that confused me about the movie was that during almost all of it Woody was real persistent on them going back to Andy and staying loyal to him and whatnot, even after playing with Bonnie... and then he makes a last second decision to go with Bonnie. It kinda threw me off, but I love Bonnie to bits and staying in the attic seems like a sad way for the toys to end up so no complaints XD
I really love what you did with this picture

I think it just took Woody that long to realize that he and the others had been what they needed to be for Andy, and that now Bonnie needed them. Maybe he had to spent that much time away from his friends to realize he would be miserable without them?

That's a good way of putting it; I guess I can go with that. I just wish the movie itself had given a more explicit explanation. Even just a simple "Well gee, I think Bonnie needs us more than Andy now" would have left me satisfied

To preserve the surprise of seeing Woody in the bottom of the box, they couldn't show us his decision to join his friends, but I bet it would've been a great little scene.

The tenderness of Woody's gaze is so, so sweet. You, like the folks at Pixar, really have a knack for giving a toy such tangible humanity. I love it.

I absolutely love this. The third movie made me cry (all three times I saw it), and somehow this is comforting to me.

My little sister makes a whole adventure out of playing with her toys, it's really cute.
Really wonderful work.

All this fan art makes me want to see this movie so much, but I've yet to go see it. Just that little part right there makes me tear up and I wonder about this movie more and more. <3

Bonnie was so awesome. I loved watching her make beeping sounds for her plastic microwave. I used to do the same when I was playing in my friend's house. She embodies my childhood <3

I was listening to the Dixie Chicks' "Lullaby" when I did this, and I had to go and mop my face up. I was like, Why am I DOING this to myself? I knew you'd feel me.

Always do! I don't want to hear that song, but I kinda do... just like that damn Alison Krauss version of "Baby Mine". Oy vey.

not to mention she even had a totoro! her tastes were so eclectic, it made me smile, and reminded me of little me
i couldn't help but cry when andy gave up all the guys, though. i'm kinda a hoarder of sentimental things, so i probably would've rather put them up in the attic rather than donate them, unless i met a kid like bonnie that i KNEW i could trust to take care of them

I love Bonnie. C: She's so cute, and she loves her toys and takes good care of them!

Simply adorable! This is exactly what Woody lives for, and seeing him watch over Bonnie like he would Andy just makes my heart melt. The lavender palette is a very nice choice, and little Bonnie looks so peaceful in her dreams.
Excellent work, hon!

I figure, Woody can, with care, last a long freaking time. He knows this could be his last kid, but maybe it won't be. Why NOT let yourself love with every ounce of your tiny little being?
