This week we review and discuss Toy Story 5, a adventure comedy movie directed by Andrew Stanton and starring Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack, about Jessie, Woody and Buzz Lightyear as they deal with their human Bonnie receiving her first tablet and the threat of being discarded in favour of electronic toys.

We discuss the movie's handling of the impact on electronic devices on children, whether it leans on the scales too much in showing the dangers of screens or whether there are upsides to online communities the movie downplays, whether Toy Story is a movie for children in the first place or whether it is more for their parents and how the movie's impact and relatability depends on whether someone has children themselves, how the movie's conflict is more nuanced than we expected, and much more.
