10 Movies Everyone Wanted To Love (But Nobody Did)

5. Toy Story 4

Anchorman 2
Pixar

You won't find many people who confess to hating Toy Story 4, because honestly it's a good movie, and by the metric of any typical animated movie, a damn good one at that.

But Pixar and especially the Toy Story franchise is a storytelling powerhouse unto itself. Given the basically flawless nature of the first three Toy Story movies and how brilliantly Toy Story 3 wrapped things up, nothing but another masterpiece would've quite sufficed for number four.

And Toy Story 4 ultimately wasn't a masterpiece by any means - a solidly entertaining post-script to the trilogy with gorgeous animation and strong voice work, but still a movie that many Toy Story fans failed to actually love.

How many have felt a desire to go back and revisit Toy Story 4 since 2019? It's a film we all watched and probably enjoyed to a modestly decent extent, but in a series renowned for its consistent brilliance, that's not quite good enough.
