In what is going to become a theme for this entire series, no one thought there was any way Toy Story 2 could have a sequel. Just the work alone in getting that film done and out to the masses, only to become a massive hit, meant Pixar would be playing with fire if they decided to make a Toy Story 3. But with all the resources at their disposal (no employee with a copy on their hard drive would be needed to save the film this time) Toy Story 3 came out in 2010 and crossed the billion dollar mark upon its arrival. While Matt, Adam, and Garrett have been steadily agreeing on the first two episodes of this series, they finally find it in them to start having some disagreements on this episode. Someone on this podcast was not a huge fan upon seeing the film for the first time, and he makes his opinion known. So download the 90 minute plus episode below, and be sure to come back as we are leading up to a review of this year’s Toy Story 5!!

When Toy Story became the surprise hit of 1995, newly minted Pixar knew they had to follow it up. But director John Lasseter had another passion project he wanted to do first, which turned out to be A Bug’s Life. With another hit on his hands, Lasseter knew that it was time to follow up his original hit. But how do you follow up a beloved film that not only took Hollywood by storm, but also built a whole studio? The answer to these questions resulted in more peaks and valleys than they could count. Join Matt, Adam, and Garrett as they go over ALL those peaks and valleys, and determine if Toy Story 2 deserves its reputation of being one of the only Part 2s that surpasses its original source material.

What Star Wars is to the cinematic world, Toy Story is to the animation world. When it arrived in 1995, it ushered in a whole new way of telling stories, as well as launched one of the most profitable and prolific studios in the history of film. Join the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as Matt, Adam, and Garrett dissect what Toy Story has meant to them individually. Atlantis least one person is coming at this from a whole new angle than when they covered it before. Listen below to find out who. Oh, they also review the 1995 computer animated movie that almost wasn’t. And keep coming back, as this retrospective will end on a review of Toy Story 5, which they all see in theaters. Note: This podcast was recorded a month plus before the release of Toy Story 5. So the series will actually end on a week of release review, including theatrical experiences.

After many years of anticipation by seemingly no one but Garrett and Adam, the brand new Masters of the Universe film was released in June to a massive amount of screens. And limited box office returns. What happened? And is the film any good? Listen to Garrett, Adam, and Matt as they dissect those questions in this podcast that was recorded the week the film came out. What were their theatrical experiences like? Did Matt, who proclaimed last podcast to not have any investment in this property, find any enjoyment in this 80s nostalgia fest? Or was the presence of Jared Leto just too much to overcome??? Sooo much to discuss in this cap off to our Masters of the Universe Retrospective. What’s next?? Tune in until the end to find out!

Note: This podcast was recorded the week before the new movie opened) Time for a new retrospective series! With Masters of the Universe hitting theaters, we decided to get on the He-Man bandwagon. Well, 2/3 of us did. Listen to Garett and Adam go over their childhood love of the character, while Matt tries to figure out the character’s appeal. But Matt has been notorious on this show of endorsing bad movies. Does Cannon Films’ 1987 Dolph Lundgren (again?!) starring movie get added to that list? And what did Adam and Garrett think of it when it was originally released?? What do they think now?? So much to get to, as well as what we expect from the Travis Knight (Bumblebee) directed update, on this 90 plus minute episode of The Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast!!!
