Imperialism in Toy Story 3!!!

        Toy Story 3 is by far one of my favorite movies of all time. Not only is it the best animated movie I have seen, but it also shows imperialism. Throughout the movie and even in the first two movies we experience that power that Woody has over the group of toys. The leadership that takes in place when he calls for a meeting, and they all take for granted that he knows what is right and wrong. When in the movie Woody wants Andy to play with them that he calls his cell phone so that ONLY!!! Woody could hear his voice. Even though everything doesn't always come out right for Woody, he always tries to calm the situation down. As went coming out of the box he says that everything will be fine and that Andy will love them forever. Woody somehow overpowers that whole room when standing on top of the table that Andy has there. Though Buzz goes up to him and ask him that if he is sure that Andy will put them in the attic. Woody is not sure but he tries to make the best out of his  last few days in Andy's room. 
        When Andy put the rest of his toys except for Woody in the bag. Woody watched the bag as Andy was going to put in the attic, but he doesn't put it because he sees his sister carrying a box of toys that she will donate to Sunnyside Daycare. So Andy helps her out with carrying the boxes because she is having difficulty. His mom passes by, trips over it and thinks that its the garbage bag. As soon as Woody sees that happens he goes and tries to be that brave leader to rescue them. Then they break out of the bag and Jessey has a great idea to go to the Daycare because they will be played with there. Woody then tells them not to, he says it is a bad idea, but then Andy's mom starts the car and they are all heading to Sunnyside Daycare. Woody tries to take care of the situation but it is not possible.
       In Sunnyside they meet Lotso who is the leader of the daycare. He shows that imperialistic power. The way he speaks and orders the other toys to welcome all of Andy's toys in. Lotso is the evil guy that is in control of everything in the daycare. There is nothing to stop him from being that way. That imperialistic power is also exemplified when Lotso tries to be a nice sweet bear when giving them a tour around the daycare. He shows that dictator and political power that governments show when they begin their power. Not only is he an evil antagonist that we see in any animated movie, but we also see that imperialistic and control power that he has over everybody. His imperialistic ideas make him a creator of chaos and a villain who tries to make the most out of his own power. He suffers because he was one cared and loved by his owner like most of the toys in the daycare. With this imperialistic power he takes out his anger and shows how he once suffered as an owned toy. This movie is imperialistic because both Woody and Lotso hold power over the toys either in the Daycare or in Andy's room and also wherever they go.
