You soft shites all cried at Toy Story 3, so prepare to cry up all your misery in Toy Story 4 which is actually being made right now according to Tom Hanks. Of course, with such a long time passing between the second and third instalments, it appears that the producers aren’t messing around with number four.
This is hardly surprising given that Toy Story 3 was such a rampant success, becoming the first animated film to clear the $1bn. mark.
With the third film neatly rounding-off the franchise, it’ll be interesting to see what happens in the new one. We’re hoping for similarities to The Simpsons episode where Burns has lost Bobo. Or something. We haven’t actually seen the first three, so what do we know? It’s better than making some lame joke implying it’ll be full of inappropriate sex scenes and gangsta rappers or something.
Of course, for the new film, Tom Hanks will be the voice of Woody again, and naturally, Tim Allen will be signed up once more to voice Buzz Lightyear.
Eddie Murphy probably does all the other characters. He always does all the other characters in films doesn’t he?
So when will this get releases? Well, with Monsters University (that’s the Monsters, Inc. sequel) getting a release of 2013, we can assume that Toy Story 4 won’t be far away, so pencil in a provisional summer 2014 release. If you’re a raging idiot, you might want to start queuing at the cinema right now.
The real winners in all of this are, of course, people who flog merchandise. So expect a slew of lame talking lunchboxes, egg-cups that look like Buzz Lightyear and Slinky Dog tampon applicators.
Maybe that’s the angle for Toy Story 4? The characters find out how omnipresent they’ve become and spend two hours crying at the existential horror of it all.

Well if you come up with a great idea, keep redoing it and driving it into the ground until
it’s meaningless, repetitive and boring.
