12 Unanswered Questions From Famous Movies That Are Still Killing Us

5. What Happened To Bo Peep? - Toy Story

Bo Peep Toy Story

Toy Story 3 is (hopefully) the final entry in the otherwise flawless Toy Story 3 franchise, a movie so good that it genuinely has the ability to make grown men cry, over and over again. The narrative here is fairly adult-minded for a "children's movie" - our heroes, the toys of Andy's room, are no longer getting the playtime they deserve, given that Andy is a teenager now, and getting caught playing with a cowboy doll would probably be enough to get the poor kid sectioned.

At the beginning of the movie, we're introduced to Woody and friends' plight: they're lonely and underused. And then, in a brief line of dialogue, we're treated to the news that some of the characters from the original movies - including Bo Peep - are no longer with them, which was basically Pixar's way of saying: "Yeah, there are too many characters in this movie for it to work, so some of them have to die."

It's understandable, then, but it's still frustrating as hell, given that Bo was Woody's love interest for two whole movies. What happened? How 'bout some closure?
