Nahh. No, I don't feel like I've hit on anything different or deeper than anyone else. That's just how this series of films affects me personally, if that makes any sense? And I feel like my nephews will react similarly to me in time, mostly because I see them as being as ridiculously oversensitive and emotional about stuff as I am. That's all I was trying to say.

You know, I'd rather see the Toy Story movies as being hopeful in the way you describe. I understand that was the intended message, after all. Logically, I agree with you, too. I find happiness in a lot of different stories which have similar levels of darkness in them, so it's not like I can't see how it works or haven't experienced that with a lot of other movies or books. But for whatever reason, I just don't get a happy emotional response to these movies. Or even a particularly hopeful one.

Anyway, I wasn't trying to come off as being all "I've got this down better than you plebes" or whatever! In fact I feel the opposite: it frustrates me that I can't just let go of this emotional response and appreciate the films for what they are. So anyway I apologize for making it sound like I look down on people for reading these films in a more hopeful way. All I can do is assure you that I don't look down on anyone like that.

Ah, well, perhaps I misunderstood what you wanted to say, but your description of people who thought the ending was nice as "less thoughtful" and "wallowing in cheap sentimentality" kind of makes that conclusion inevitable, y'know?

Yeah, wow that's... sure a thing I said.

Wow.

God, I need to sort of pay closer attention to the words I'm typing, huh. ANYWAY THAT ISN'T REALLY EXACTLY WHAT I MEANT EVEN THOUGH THAT IS CLEARLY WHAT I SAID. Seriously, wow.

/facepalms over personal dumbness. Anyway, yeah. Uh... (wanders off in blushing shame...)

It's fine! Just wanted to clear up what you were intending — I know I've said things that came out sounding reeeeaally off from what I meant on the internet too ;P
