Hello, movie lovers!
Welcome to this week's Movies at Grandmas House newsletter!
In our latest podcast episode, we asked: Does Toy Story 4 (2019) still hold up, or is it just Pixar nostalgia in disguise? This computer-animated adventure from the masters at Pixar follows Woody as he embarks on a road trip with Bonnie and her toys, including the anxious new addition Forky. We dive into its stunning photorealistic animation, Randy Newman's heartfelt score featuring "I Can't Let You Throw Yourself Away," and whether this surprisingly emotional conclusion to Woody's story delivers toy-box magic and genuine heart for today's families—or if it's more than meets the pull-string when it comes to pure nostalgia.
Plus, we've found some amazing deals on movie posters from MoviePoster.com, Amazon, and more—check them out!

Toy Story 4 (2025)
Was Toy Story 4 an unnecessary cash grab… or a hidden Pixar masterpiece? 🤔 In this Toy Story 4 review, hosts Isaac and Seth revisit Pixar’s most divisive sequel five years later to see if it actually holds up. From Woody’s identity crisis and Forky’s existential dread to those creepy ventriloquist dummies, we dive deep into the billion-dollar sequel that split fans right down the middle. Featuring Tony Hale as Forky, Keegan-Michael Key & Jordan Peele as Ducky and Bunny, and Keanu Reeves as Duke Kaboom, this movie packed serious star power. But did Pixar really need to make it after the perfect Toy Story 3 ending? We explore the stunning animation, Buzz Lightyear’s controversial character arc, and all the hidden gems you missed inside the antique shop (with nods to Up, Inside Out, and Monsters Inc.).
But how would we rate it?
 | Isaac's Rating Watch it at Grandma’s “I wasn’t thrilled with this one the first time viewing, but it gets better and better for me. A touching story and the animation is beautiful. Give this another chance if you didn’t enjoy it before, and you might overlook a few flaws and have a good time." |
Seth's Rating Take it Home! “With my first viewing, I wasn't a fan of the sequel at first, but I watched it and it grew on me and I learned to love it more and more. But then after that, I'll say as an overview, this is a clever story with a twist ending. I think the reason it gets a lot of hate is because it's hard for people to let go.” |  |

📚Uncle Seth’s Corner: Paddington
Today on Uncle Seth's Corner, he considers the movie Paddington! Paddington is a charming live-action/CGI family film about a polite little bear from Peru who travels to London in search of a new home. Taken in by the kind Brown family, Paddington quickly finds himself in all sorts of misadventures as he tries to adjust to city life—while also catching the attention of a villainous taxidermist who wants to capture him. Through his curiosity, kindness, and love of marmalade, Paddington teaches everyone around him the true meaning of family and acceptance.
