DPMovieReviewToyStory3 What is it about?

After being mistakenly delivered to a day-care center instead of Andy’s attic, the toys struggle to not only escape the center, but in finding a future and closing the chapter on their past with Andy.

Who is in it?

Tom Hanks – Woody
Tim Allen – Buzz Lightyear


Favorite Scene:


After being inside a recycle refinery, the toys hold hands thinking they will die together. However, the three aliens swoop them up with the trash claw and state (similar to the original), “The clawwwww”.

Favorite Quote:

Buzz Lightyear: “Spare me your lies, temptress! Your emperor's defeated, and I’m immune to your bewitching good looks.”

Review:

Toy Story 3 is an excellent film. There is no other way to put it. The last of the trilogy was amazing from it’s drama, comedy, humor, limitless creativity, and it’s ability to not only entertain, but wrap up a great series. The team behind Toy Story 3 should be well applauded for their efforts as all of the hype surrounding the film is well-deserved and more.

The plot in Toy Story 3 brought to life new characters and bid farewell to the usual gang with a plot that was super engaging. Not to mention, the insanely hilarious “Ken” character. The viewer will develop a bond with all of the characters throughout the movie, which is a true testament to an excellent writing crew.

This review can go on, and on, and on, about the the greatness of Toy Story 3. It is a definite must watch for everyone.

Grade: 4.5/5

WWE Wrestlemania XL Review: "I absolutely loved this Wrestlemania"

It's easy to get caught up and become a prisoner of the moment. Especially in today's world where the latest moment is ostracized, super-analyzed, and hyperbolized - it's very much the clickbait, social media, microwave society we live in.  Yet, even after acknowledging that (as well as my Tribal Chief, of course), I still come to this feeling that Wrestlemania XL is one of the best Wrestlemania's, ever.  Yes, ever!  I don't need Triple H's metrics and benchmarks to influence me. No, no, no! In terms of hype, storylines, payoffs, match quality, and just overall fun - this entire weekend was amazing.  I'm slightly skewed in my preference as well. This was my son's first Wrestlemania as a pro wrestling fan. Having him at my side cheering on his favorites, getting caught up in the drama, and even crying at the end of the night because his Tribal Chief lost to "that no good Cody" added to the overall appreciation of the event.  So yeah, I have some

DP Review of the Alternate Knicks Orange Jersey

One of the good aspects about having a blog and being truthful and honest about it, is the hindsight thought process it provides. DP devotees already know how much I love my New York Knicks, and how excited I was about their new jerseys last year. It was a new look that was desperately needed ( DP Review On Knicks New Uniforms ).  In reviewing those jerseys last year, I had the following comments in regards to then-rumors regarding the addition of an alternative orange jersey for the Knicks and overall NBA changes to the Christmas Day special jerseys:  "As long as we do not add an "alternative jersey" (I read rumors of an orange one - woof!) (and the league-wide Spanish jerseys are fine). And please, please - PLEASE - let's finally do away with the awful green jerseys we feel the need to wear on Christmas and St. Patrick's day! Pretty please!"
