Free Toy Story 3 showing tonight outside DUC
Nostalgia and soul-crushing tragedy are the two best ways to bring people together. To save you from another night of talking to your floormates about how much you love depressing 90s music (I’m looking at you, grunge), Filmboard is showing “Toy Story 3” at 7:30 tonight—before the DVD drops—in the Edison Courtyard outside the DUC. The movie is free, and pizza, popcorn and candy will also be available at low cost.
Possibly the best film of 2010 so far, “Toy Story 3” returns to Woody and Buzz as they suffer a midlife crisis of sorts when Andy, their owner, packs and leaves for college. All the new characters, especially Ken, are just as memorable as the series’ threepeaters. Pixar manages to keep everything funny and fast-paced, and it only gets sad at the end (beware!). Because seating is limited, people are encouraged to bring blankets, which will be doubly useful in damming your tears as you come to terms with being a terrible toy owner. Or maybe that’s just me.
