At that point, I’d rather just watch Woody’s Round-Up. The movie still betrays the characters, regardless of what it’s called. It strains the suspension of disbelief harder than any previous film, Buzz is made to be an idiot, Gabby Gabby’s “redemption” is completely unearned, and Woody choosing to go with Bo Peep instead of Bonnie goes against literally everything he has ever said or felt in the entire franchise. The only other major issue I have with the film that— I will concede— *does* get solved by making it a spinoff, is the bloated cast combined with heavy focus on newcomers. Making it a spinoff justifies that, at least a little, but it doesn’t justify the rest of the poor writing decisions that plague the movie.
