I always thought Toy Story 3 had the perfect ending to the trilogy and while I did like 4, I have it below the other films in the franchise. I feel like 5 is a return to form. I feel like Jesse being the lead brings a fresh perspective. Who better to deal with the change of society than Jesse who knows what it feels like to be abandoned? Tech robs us of personal connection, a connection Bonnie so desires. I thought it was funny and heartfelt

According to co-writer/director Kenna Harris, "Toy Story 5" originally had Jessie crossing paths with Emily by chance. "Emily was now a grandmother and introduced her beloved childhood doll to her grandbaby in a touching climactic sequence," they said. "I drew this [see above image] in exploration of that special, nostalgia-filled moment." Seeing Jessie reunite with Emily would have certainly been beautiful, but ultimately, the "Toy Story 5" creative team took a much better and less predictable approach to completing Jessie's healing journey. "Though the film ultimately went in a different direction, we always knew that Jessie's special connection to Emily would be key to 'Toy Story 5,'" said Harris.
