Kelsi and Trey discuss what they've been watching lately before diving deep into Toy Story 5 and the larger Toy Story franchise. We also talk about Hoppers as a Gen Z-coded environmental Pixar movie, Voicemails for Isabelle as one of the better traditional rom-coms (and Netflix originals) in years, and Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie as a chaotic miracle of DIY stunt filmmaking. Then we move into Toy Story 5, discussing why the franchise remains so emotionally elastic and what toys means for all audiences. We also get into Jessie’s role as the emotional center of the new film, the movie’s surprisingly thoughtful take on technology and digital childhood, Bonnie’s cyberbullying storyline, and where Toy Story 5 ranks in the franchise.You can also sign up for our Patreon as a free member below to listen to free episodes with Toy Story (1995) now available for free members.Become a member of The Extra Credits+ on Patreon hereTikTok: The Extra CreditsThe Extra Credits YouTube ChannelLetterboxd: The Extra CreditsInstagram: @theextracreditsTwitter: @theextracreditsSend requests, questions, and thoughts to our email: extracreditspod@gmail.com
