Hi-ho, Kermit the frog here, I am here today to give you my review of Grown-Ups, which I saw five days ago.

Rating: :king::king::king::king::king:
I gave Grown-Ups five Kings because it was downright funny! It seemed like I would die from laughing. Grown-Ups stars THE five funniest guys on the face of the Earth: Adam Sandler, David Spade, Kevin James, Rob Schneider, and Chris Rock. I was touched by the ending. I will not tell you the ending. That means that you have to see the movie to know the ending. All in all, I think that Grown-Ups was a wonderful movie, if you want a few good laughs.

Toy Story 3 would have been a five-king movie if the beginning was a tad bit better.

Yeah, the beginning reminded me a bit of the beginning of Up. In the way that a sentimental 'home recording' style video set the emotional tone right off the bat. Seemed weird Pixar would use the same style of intro two movies in a row.

Did I say there was anything wrong? You prefer people don't ask any questions on this discussion board?

I apologize if my comment came of as mean. I'm also sorry that I thought you implied that you thought there was something wrong with Kermit's opinion. Though, I did ask you if you thought there was something wrong.

Anyway, the opening with the home videos did seem similar to Up. But, to me, the playtime opening made up for that(did anyone else want to see more of it?). I think of the purpose of the home videos scene as being these three:

1. To explain things a little to people who haven't seen the previous movies(thought I could still see people getting a little lost anyway)

2. To contrast the things were before and the way things are now.

3. To give the other toys that weren't in the main story a cameo.('cause if people are freaking out that Bo Peep wasn't in the movie, who what would happen if she was never given a cameo)

I was talking about the part with the train, not the home videos.
