This film is one of Pixar’s best, yet Quentin Tarantino refuses to see it



Quentin Tarantino and the perfect trilogy

It is well known, Quentin Tarantino he is not “just” a great filmmaker. He is also a cinephile passionate about both the masterpieces of the seventh art and the little-known B-series. The director has repeatedly paid homage to certain genres and has not hesitated to resort to forgotten actors or actresses. As a spectator, Tarantino, like everyone else, has his favorite films. Among these, Sergio Leone’s Dollar Trilogy occupies an important place. Present in an episode of the podcast Random Club by Bill Maher, the director of Kill Bill he stated that, in his opinion, For a handful of dollars (1964), And for a few dollars more (1965) and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) do “what no other trilogy has ever managed to do“.

The first movie is great, but the second movie is so great and it turns everything into something so much bigger that it destroys the first movie. Then the third one does the same thing as the second one, and that’s what never happens. There’s usually a big jump between the first and the second one, but the third one usually doesn’t do much.

A good example of a trilogy that fails to last until the third work is Quentin Tarantino’s Mad Max. In fact it is a generally accepted thing. Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome (1985) is not at the level of MadMax2 (1981). However, it is not only the Dollar Trilogy that is fully validated by the director. Surprisingly enough, he then mentioned the director the case of Toy History.

The director he’s a fan of Toy History

While he doesn’t watch everything that’s being done in terms of animation, Quentin Tarantino has said that he is “a big fan of the Toy Story trilogyAnd for him, the three films, released in 1995, 1999 and 2010, have accomplished the same feat as Sergio Leone’s trilogy.

In the case of Toy Story, the third one is just magnificent. This is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. And if you’ve seen the other two, it’s just devastating.

Alone, the saga Toy History currently has four works and soon five with Toy Story 5 scheduled for 2026. A film that Quentin Tarantino should not see, just like that he refused to see Toy Story 4 (2019)believing that the third work perfectly concluded the story of Woody and Buzz.

The problem is, three years later or something, they made a fourth movie and I have no desire to see it. You literally finished the story as perfectly as possible, so no, I don’t care how good it is. I’m done.

Toy Story 4 It is considered one of the best Pixar films, respectively with 97% and 94% positive opinions from the press and the public ON Rotten tomatoes. And, in theaters, it had surpassed the billion in revenue at the global box office. However, others before Quentin Tarantino had thought that the third work was the best possible conclusion. Nothing can stop Disney and Pixar who have continued to develop films around this universe, most recently with the spin-off Buzz Lightyear (2022).
