I don't know if there's a sadder song in the Disney canon than "When She Loved Me" (the song about Jessie the Cowgirl's previous owner). Dag.
I'm also rewatching the movies in prep for the third, and that scene brought me close to tears, unexpectedly. Not only because, you know, she's a
fucking toy,
but because I found her character really irritating before then. They pulled the old "Ha, we will make you care about a character you don't even like, mwahahaha!" trick.
One of the best movie reviews I've ever read...and it's about
Marmaduke
, for fuck's sake!

Excellent, Joe. I think this is my favorite part.
Nobody tells Marmaduke what to do. That's my kinda dog.

I bookmarked it to read later. Love the Buffy ref in the comments and HERE!
What the io9 review fails to mention is that Marmaduke is also a 2-hour long episode of The OC, if The OC were about dogs.

From the io9 review:
the moviegoer never sees Marmaduke in a pimp hat.
Well, fuck that, then. If they can't give me a great dane in a pimp hat, I have no use for the movie.
I bet you can have a dalmatian in a pimp hat any time you want!
...and of course I just got the Mr. Trick quote at the top of the page. Magic!
Huh.
The magic is over: Harry Potter has finished production
Two days ago, director David Yates shouted "cut!" after the very last shot of the very last Harry Potter film — and one of the most profitable, beloved film series in Hollywood history has officially wrapped.
According to Warwick Davis — who played Professor Flitwick in the saga based on J.K. Rowling's novels — this weekend marked the last time that, barring any unforeseen future cash-grabs, cameras would roll on a Harry Potter film.
eta:
The world at large will be winding up to a more grandiose farewell to Harry, Hermione, Ron, and the whole gang over the next 13 months, between the Nov. 19, 2010 release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and the July 15, 2011 release of Deathly Hallows, Part 2.
tommy, why do you have to make me cry first thing Monday morning? That's just mean.
