Toy story 4 Does not contradict or even push the red button. It’s called development, and within context. In the first one, as well as the second one (my favourite movie BTW :-), it’s all within the context and mindset that Woody as well as the rest of the toys have, let alone how specifically close he feels with Andy, which is not the case with Bonnie. Like they constantly say throughout the fourth one, “Bonnie is not Andy“ and in the end, it just didn’t work out for Woody. He is not needed by her, and if he had stayed with her, he would not have been unused and would just be miserable, just as much Or maybe even more without being with Andy. So what’s worse? Being With a kid and NOT Being played with/overall needed, or not being with one yet being with someone you know and Helping other toys yet still being played with, just not in the same kind of or conventional way? I don’t understand what’s so hard to get about that, especially for Supposedly “true” toy story and even Pixar and or Disney fans

I think this is a problem that the MCU is now facing. The Infinity Saga feels like a world built by Tony Stark and Steve Rogers to be consumed by Thanos. Now that Thanos has bern defeated I have to ask the question "what villain can possibly do worse than destroying the universe and what hero could do better than saving it?"

They've got this new Deadpool and Wolverine movie coming out and I think that it will be good on its own because of the distinct personalities that Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman brought to the characters. However, I can already tell that as great as those two are, they won't be able to carry a whole franchise.

Honestly, I think Toy Story 4 would've been much better if it wasn't a 4th movie at all, and was instead a spin-off film about Bo Peep learning to be a lost toy after she, Billy, Goat, and Gruff are given away by Molly. You could have all the new characters, (Giggles McDimple, Duke Kaboom, Duckyz Bunny, and maybe even Forky) be various other lost toys with different backstories that Bo Peep meets trying to find a new place, and have the story be about Bo forming her own makeshift family of toys that society has thrown away, who decide to use their new life on the lamb to help other toys in their prime find new owners. That way, you can still have your movie that reveals what happened to Bo Peep, with a message that not all toys need owners to be happy or have a purpose, without getting Woody involved and making all he and his makeshift family learned and went through look pointless.

Respect your views, and agree, hopefully Doctor Who coming up is going to be better with a showrunner that can possibly fix the weird storyline of the Doctor not technically being the first doctor and time Lord mumbo jumbo, lol. 😅

I disagree, even as a major Harry Potter Fan, the Fantastic Beasts movies brought if anything even more wonder, And not only/regardless of the fact that the later harry potter movies Truly lacked that wonder let alone enthusiasm from the people making them. It did not fall apart so much is people overlooked and simply “got tired” and or just lost interest whatever have you
