Have you watched Toy Story of Terror!?
What is your favourite part of the story?
Bonnie and her mother are on a road trip to visit Bonnie's grandmother; Bonnie has brought Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Rex, Mr. Pricklepants, Mr. Potato Head, and Trixie with her. In the trunk of the vehicle, the toys are watching a horror film on a portable DVD player. When the car gets a flat tire, Bonnie and her mother must spend the night at the Sleep Well roadside motel, as a tow truck cannot be sent out until the next morning.

Once Bonnie and her mother are asleep, her toys exit Bonnie's bag to explore the motel room, but Mr. Potato Head goes missing. At this point, Mr. Pricklepants begins to narrate ongoing events as if it were part of an actual horror film, considering himself an expert. The toys search through the motel for Mr. Potato Head, but several are taken by an iguana named Mr. Jones, leaving only Jessie. In a bathroom, Jessie meets an action figure named Combat Carl, who was separated from his owner, Billy. Combat Carl urges Jessie to flee to her owner for safety, but she insists on trying to rescue her friends. The iguana returns to take Combat Carl, then Jessie. The iguana is revealed to be owned by the motel's manager, Ron, who has trained Mr. Jones to steal unattended toys and other items from motel guests so he can sell them in online auctions. Ron puts Jessie in the back room of his office, in a glass cabinet containing her friends, Combat Carl, and other stolen toys.

I watched it last year with Iree while all the older kids were out trick-or-treating (it gets dark out there early, and it was already pretty cold and windy). We stayed back, handing out candy and cooking up frozen pizza for the kids and all their goofy friends.

I thought the show was pretty good, for all that I don't care much about Toy Story (I kind of forgot who Bonnie was, because I only saw 'Toy Story 3' once a million years ago). I seem to recall Trixie was voiced by Kristen Schaal---------there were a couple years in there where it seemed like she was in every cartoon on earth, man.
