Page 4 HAPPENINGS June 25, 2026 www.hap2it.comThe original Toy Story(1995) introduced a simplepremise: Your toys are neverwhere you left them becausethey're actually alive and havetheir own adventures until youfind them again.Through five films, fourstreaming on Disney+ and ToyStory 5, which topped the boxoffice last weekend with awhopping $160M take, the ToyStory movies entertainedchildren with their beautifullyanimated depictions of playtimeand friendships between differenttoys.It was adults, however, who weremore likely to have emotionalbreakdowns over the films'depiction of milestone life eventsthey'd already lived through.From existential crises toconcerns about the pervasivenessof tech, the Toy Story movieshave resonated with adultaudiences throughout the yearsdue to their timely themes.Note: This article containsspoilers for the first four ToyStory films.'Toy Story' established theidentityThe first Toy Story established apoint that would become thethesis of the entire series. Pixarcouldn't have known that in1995. They were just trying toprove you could make a 90-minute film with computeranimation.Buzz Lightyear (voice of TimAllen) arrives in Andy's (JohnMorris) room believing he is areal Space Ranger. CowboyWoody (Tom Hanks) spends themovie trying to convince Buzzhe is a toy. The line \"You are atoy\" is inseparable from Hanks'voice.After an identity crisis, Buzzaccepts that he is a toy and thisbecomes what all the toys aredealing with. It reverses in ToyStory 2 when Buzz has to remindWoody that being a toy is moreimportant than being acollectible. Toy Story 4 makes iteven harder to convince Forky(Tony Hale) that he is a toyand Toy Story 5 even deals withthe value of toys over tech.'Toy Story 2' as the existentialcrisisIn the first and best sequel, Al(Wayne Knight) steals Woody tocomplete his \"Woody'sRoundup\" collection and sell it toa museum. Woody meets Jessiethe cowgirl (Joan Cusack), thehorse Bullseye and theProspector (Kelsey Grammer).The potential of being in a toymuseum tempts the toys withimmortality and Woody is sold atfirst.Jessie shares what has becomethe saddest and most importantmoment of the series. She tellsthe story, via SarahMcLachlan singing \"When SheLoved Me,\" of her owner, Emily,who eventually became ateenager and donated Jessie.This is the natural lifecycle. Kidsgrow up. Passing their toys alongto the next generation iswonderful. The thing is, toysdon't grow up. And even acynical adult can reflect on thetoys they played with that shapedthe people they became.This is where Toy Story2 became emotionallydevastating for adults. Sequelswould find other psychologicalwounds to pick at, too.Woody ultimately accepts thatbeing a child's toy is finite, but itis more rewarding than livingforever behind a glass case neverinteracting with children.'Toy Story 3' confronts realityEleven years later, Toy Story3 has Andy (still Morris) goingoff to college. The toys hadmentally prepared for thismoment, but they sort of try themuseum thing again.This time they go to a day carewhere they posit that they'll getplayed with forever by a newclass of kids every year. Day careisn't all it's cracked up to be askids treat communal toyscarelessly.In the end, Andy gives the toys toBonnie (Emily Hahn) to continuethe series, but along the way, ToyStory 3 arguably contradictsitself.The villain, Lotso Huggin Bear(Ned Beatty) is angry because hischild replaced him, but that's notthe whole story. Lotso's child losther bear, so her parents boughtanother Lotso.She still loved Lotso. That'stotally different than Jessiegetting outgrown, or even TheProspector, who never got playedwith because he was a collectiblein an unopened box.It would have been interesting toexplore what it means whenbeloved toys are replaced bycopies of themselves. If it's aboutthe child, Lotso should be happyshe has another Lotso. Buzzconfronted other Buzzes in ToyDisney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 5” tallied $160million domestically during its opening weekend,the highest debut in its franchise history.How the 'Toy Story' films explored life's emotional milestonesMovie review: 'Toy Story 5' reflects,expands emotion By Fred Topel Toy Story 5, now in theaters, is abouttechnology encroaching on play timebut specifically about how that impairsreal-life friendships. Toys are nolonger simply the vehicle for children'simagination, but also interpersonalconnection.Bonnie (Scarlett Spears) is too shy toask the neighbors to play with her. Herparents reluctantly buy her a LilyPadtablet (Greta Lee), which the companynefariously sells as a way to makefriends.Toy Story 5 shows how kids zone outon screens, but also their parents dotoo. Jessie (Joan Cusack) is the toyleading the charge to find Bonnie ahuman friend who will actually playwith her rather than sit together staringat their screens.It is nice to see this sequel focus onJessie, who was introduced in ToyStory 2. Woody (Tom Hanks) and BuzzLightyear (Tim Allen) becomesupporting characters for her, the wayensembles should focus with sharingthe focus in each entry.Jessie has some flashbacks to heroriginal owner Emily, whoseoutgrowing of Jessie traumatized herin 2. She's now seen Andy grow up andgive his toys to Bonnie, and now seestechnology hastening Bonnie'sdevelopment, but removing the healthysteps of growing up.Lily says she's helping Bonnie makefriends by connecting her with otherLilyPad users from her dance class.That just exposes Bonnie to anothergroup who can ostracize her.Toy Story 5 shows tech making kidsoutgrow toys faster, but withoutaccruing the maturity or social skillsthey need as adults.No wonder an open-hearted child can'tconnect with the tablet crowd. The techusers are like a cult or BodySnatchers pod people. When Bonnieasks, \"Why won't anyone be myfriend?\" it may be blatant, but it'suniversal.Bonnie's parents are responsible. Theytalk about limiting screen time andthey are present when Bonnie is upset.Bonnie struggles to share with them askids do, but Toy Story 5 really portraysideal parental attentiveness withoutmicromanaging.Another subplot has a shipping cratestory continues on page 6 review continues on page 6Cover Story_9x.qxp_COVER STORY 6/23/26 2:46 PM Page 1

Page 6 HAPPENINGS June 25, 2026 www.hap2it.comStory 2 and will again in 5.Alas, Toy Story 3 doesn't gothere.It does touch on end-of-lifebriefly when the toys end upon an incinerator conveyorbelt at the landfill. That theyare willing to face the endtogether seems beside thepoint with inanimateobjects, no matter howanthropomorphized theyare. Actually, Lost Ollie onNetflix dealt with theimpermanence of toys inmore depth.Outliving childhood is farmore tragic than simplybeing destroyed.As Highlander asked, \"Whowants to live forever whenlove must die?\" Besides,even before they made ToyStory 4 and Toy Story 5,grown-ups had to know thatwasn't how Toy Story 3 wasgoing to end.'Toy Story 4' shows anyobject can be emotionalToy Story 4 answers theLotso question, indirectly atleast. Bonnie (nowMadeleine McGraw) createsForky in a Kindergartencraft project. When sheloses him, her parentssuggest she can makeanother Forky and Bonnierefuses.It has to be that Forky.That's the one she made onher first day ofKindergarten. She says,\"There's only one Forky\"suggesting that some kidsdo identify with theirspecific object.We only have Lotso'sperspective in Toy Story 3.Lotso's kid probably neverknew he was missing if herparents replaced him fastenough.Forky's insistence that he istrash could be a nature vs.nurture argument. He'smade from a plastic Sporkand believes his destiny is tobe thrown out after use. Allthe love from Bonnie andWoody's micromanagingstruggle to override Forky'snature, and he remains in thecast of Toy Story 5.In a flashback to nine yearsprior, Bo Peep (Annie Potts)knows it is time for the nextkid. She made peace with itlong before Andy went tocollege.Woody still spends ToyStory 4 trying to relive histime with Andy throughBonnie. In the end, herealizes someone else washer Woody and that's OK.Buzz assures him, \"Bonniewill be OK.\"Still, it shows the reality ofthe aftermath of 1-3. Woodynever totally got over Andygrowing up, which isnormal. Acceptance doesn'tmean we have no emotionsabout it.One thing Toy Story has yetto reckon with is adults whostill play with nostalgic toys.Not like Al with collectibles,but really still play.That might not be sorelevant to kids, but it seemsto be where all this is going.Outgrowing our childhoodscan hurt, but if we don't, wemight miss out on otherrewarding experiences inlife.By Fred Topelfull of Buzz Lightyear toys make their way back totown. This re-establishes the rules they learn, that theyfreeze every time a human sees them, and they relearn original Buzz's arc that he's not actually a StarCommander but a toy.Jessie gets returned to the address still written on herleg. A new family lives in Emily's house and Jessiegets to deal with how her familiar surroundingschanged with a new child.She also meets phase one tech that has also beenabandoned for the updated models. So even deviceswill be outgrown either by aging kids or newermodels.Returning to Emily's house runs the danger ofretconning the bittersweet closure of Toy Story 2.Fortunately, Toy Story 5 doesn't negate that Emily didgrow up and donate Jessie, but offers rewardingdevelopments that deepen that without invalidatingwhat Jessie experienced.Pixar continues to evolve their visual aestheticbeautifully. Bonnie's playtime with the toys areanimated in a watercolor aesthetic. Her LilyPadscreen is reflected in her eyeballs.There are still jokes about the Toy Story lore, like thenew Buzzes learning about Zurg all over again.A Bambi homage also suggests tech addicts should\"touch grass\" as it were.The encroachment of technology might date ToyStory 5 in this decade more than the more universalearlier entries, and hopefully it becomes an issue ofthe past. Until then, we won't have to wait longfor Toy Story 6 to address the toys dealing with AI.7 other voice roles from the 'Toy Story 5' castTom Hanks, Tim Allen and JoanCusack return to voice the belovedcharacters of Woody, BuzzLightyear and Jessie in Toy Story5, which topped the box office onits opening weekend.

www.hap2it.com June 25, 2026 HAPPENINGS Page 7Northern Italy’s seductivelybeautiful Lakes District – in theshadow of the Alps – seemsheaven-sent for communing withnature. Though just an hour northof Milan, this area feels a worldaway from the business and bustleof Italy’s second city.In this romantic region, wistful19th-century villas are overgrownwith old vines, while stunted palmtrees appear to be held againsttheir will, this far north. And vistasare made-to-order for daydreamersand poets. In fact, it was earlynature lovers (who wrote andpainted here) who put this area onthe tourist map in the 1800s.Visitors have several lakes tochoose from – Lake Garda, LakeMaggiore, and others. While eachhas its charms, my favorite is LakeComo. It offers the best mix ofaccessibility, scenery, sightseeing,and relaxation, with a heady whiffof aristocratic old days.Lake Como is lined with luxuriousvillas, crowned by snow-cappedmountains, and busy with fleets oflittle ferries darting from one cutetown to another. The most famoustown is Bellagio, the selfproclaimed \"Pearl of the Lake\" – acombination of old-worldclassiness and new-world luxury.Steep steps rise from theharborfront up to a smattering ofsun-splashed squares. With spendyfive-star hotels and high-endshopping, Bellagio pleases wellheeled travelers.While a part of me enjoys the“tramp in a palace” feeling I get inBellagio, my ideal Lake Comohome is Varenna. Easily accessibleby train from Milan, Varennapacks its roughly 700 residentsinto a compact townscape on theless-developed side of the lake.Individual homes are defined onlyby their pastel colors, and the oldtown has no streets – justcharacteristic stepped lanes. Thepasserella– a lakeside promenadeconnecting the ferry dock with theold town center – is a fine place tostroll.On Lake Como, villa front doorsface the lake to welcome visitorsarriving by boat. Many villas areowned by the region’s“impoverished nobility.” Bred andraised not to work, they eventuallywere unable to pay for the upkeepof their sprawling houses. Whilesome villas have been bought bythe region’s nouveaux rich (or byGeorge Clooney), others havebeen transformed into hotels orsightseeing attractions.For garden lovers, Villa Carlotta isthe best – especially in spring,when many of its flowers are inpeak bloom. But the dreamiestestate is Villa del Balbianello,which perches on a promontorynear the village of Lenno and wasfeatured in the movies CasinoRoyale and Star Wars: Episode II.Built at the end of the 18thcentury, on the remains of an oldFranciscan church, the villareflects the exotic vision of its lastowner, explorer Guido Monzino.The real masterpiece here is theterraced garden and splendidloggia, where the architecture andlandscaping idyllically caress theland as it slopes down to the water.Though it lacks the cozy charm ofLake Como, Lake Maggiore is asuitable backup destination. Thebest part of any visit here is awander through the exotic gardensand elaborate villas built by thewealthy Borromeo family, wholovingly turned several of thelake’s islands into retreats.Your handy transportation hub forthese islands is the resort town ofStresa. While I find it generallylacking in character, it does have afine waterfront promenade andstately 19th-century lakesidehotels dating back to when thistown was on the Grand Tourcircuit. Stresa is famous for itsGrand Hotel des Iles Borromées,which served as an infirmaryduring World War I, hosting arecovering Ernest Hemingway.The writer later returned to thehotel, setting part of his novel AFarewell to Arms here.But Stresa is mainly worthwhile asa jumping-off point for LakeMaggiore’s garden islands. Thebest one is Isola Bella, dominatedby a palatial villa boasting a grandhall with an 80-foot-high dome,paintings from the Borromeofamily’s private collection, and an18th-century grotto that'sdecorated from ceiling to floorwith shell motifs and black-andwhite stones. The terracedBaroque gardens, with theBorromeo family unicorn sittingon top, give the island the look ofa stepped pyramid from the water.The other main Borromean islandsare Isola Madre, featuring the firstBorromeo palace – dark andsomber with a huge collection ofdolls and exquisite 17th-centurymarionette theater sets – and IsolaPescatori, the smallest and mostresidential of the three, with acouple of seafood restaurants,picnic benches, views, and,blissfully, nothing to do but relaxand daydream.While you can visit Italy’s lakes asa day trip from Milan, Irecommend spending the night.You’ll really feel the romance ofEurope while strolling awaterfront promenade at twilight.As you pass under wisteriadrenched villas and lovers lost ineach other's eyes, you'llunderstand why poets, artists, andtravelers have long swooned forthis region.By Rick StevesNatural poetryin Italyʼs LakesDistricttravel Lake Como is lined with luxurious villas, crowned by snow-capped mountains, and busy with fleets of little ferries darting from one cute town to another.Travel_9x.qxp_TRAVEL KEN 6/22/26 4:20 PM Page 1

In fact, since thecountry’s inception in 1776,artists have been tackling thecomplexities of living life underthe stars and stripes with songsthat both trumpet anddeconstruct the concept of the American dream. Just as there’s a lot to be said in the country’sfavor — the diverse cities, beautiful scenery, advancements in technology, culture and of course,music — there’s also a lot to be improved upon, as several of these musicians point out. Politicaldivides, prejudice and poverty are unfortunately ever-present in the land of the free and the homeof the brave, but hey, at least we’re free to talk – or sing – about what we need to do to fix it.No matter your stance on the current state of things, there’s no shame in being proud of whereyou come from while simultaneously seeking change. Even that, in itself, is a deeply Americanvalue that we can all celebrate this July 4th.

Theycan occur from sleeping on one'sside, which puts extra pressure onthe shoulder joint, and persistenthunched posture, which canimpinge nerves and muscles.You should see a doctor if you areexperiencing chronic pain or yourshoulder increasingly doesn't workas you think it should.

Your vows can include special anecdotes or stories of timespent in the early days when youfirst knew this was the person withwhom you would spend your life.· Explain who this person is toyou. Tell the audience what it isabout this person that has yousmitten. Is he or she your partnerin crime? Confidante? Best friend?Or all of the above?· Share what you are pledging.Write out exactly what you arevowing to your special someone.Be definitive and draw from yourpersonal experiences. For example, \"I vow to support you eachtime you adopt another shelterdog.\" \"I promise to not hog thecovers.\" \" I vow to warm your toeson cold evenings.\" Make it personal, heartfelt and humorous.· Say you'll be there.

Helpful tips for writing wedding vowsReceptions may get their fair shareof attention, but the ceremony isthe true centerpiece of a wedding.This is the part of the day when thecouple will exchange vows andpledge their love and devotion toone another. It's also the time whenthe wedding license is signed andthe union becomes official.An officiant is an essential part ofany wedding. This person isresponsible for leading the ceremony and ensuring that all requirements are met so that the marriageis legal. He or she will guide theexchange of vows and helps set thetone of the wedding.Officiants vary depending on theceremony, including religious,non-denominational or even family or friend. Since the officiant'srole is so significant, it is important to give careful considerationto potential officiants before making a final decision.Know the rules governing yourceremony locationIf you will be having a religiousceremony in a house of worship,there may be some restrictionsregarding who can officiate thewedding. Traditionally, apriest/minister, rabbi or imammust preside over a ceremony in ahouse of worship. Even thoughthere are some limitations, youmay be able to choose the religiousleader with whom you are friendlyor whose sermons speak to you.Know what you wantSome officiants may not have formal training or lots of experienceofficiating weddings, particularlyif couples ask a friend or familymember to do the honor. Leaving itentirely up to the person may notbe the wisest choice, as you maybe surprised by what the officiantsays. It's best to give the officiant alist of guidelines to see if the person will meld with your vision.When interviewing officiants, notewhat's most important to you. Italso can help if couples try todetermine if an officiant's sense ofhumor aligns with their own.Check for skillsProfessional officiants treat this asa business and have amassed skillsthroughout the years. They likelywill have websites and reviewsthat you can read through.Consider attending an upcomingwedding to see how a particularofficiant performs on the big day.When selecting an amateur, knowthat an officiant should have publicspeaking skills and be able torelate to the audience. Someonewho is shy or stumbles over wordsmight not be the right person to putin front of guests.Has the timeOf course all the details cannot fallinto place if the officiant is bookedor doesn't have the time to tacklesuch a big component of the wedding.

Youhave to wait two years in betweeneach chapter. But, ultimately, thisis one story,\" he added. \"To getupset about something midway islike the act in the middle of a playthat you don't like. You don't likethe turn that the story took in themiddle. There's a whole other twoacts coming!\"He pointed out there is anexcellent reason for the big gapsbetween seasons of the series,which is set about 200 yearsbefore the events of Game ofThrones.\"I get the frustration,\" he laughed.\"Shooting of the show -- and thisis after scripts are written -- takesa year and then it takes sevenmonths to make dragons. So, dothe math. It's not possible to comeout every year. I'm very sorry, butyou happen to be fans of a showcalled House of the Dragon. But,in a great way, we stuck with ourplan, and I think everybody'spatience will be rewarded.\"The series follows two factions ofthe Targaryen family as they fightover who is the rightful heir to theIron Throne.It stars Emma D'Arcy asRhaenyra, who was told by herdying father King Viserys (PaddyConsidine) that she was next in theline of succession.Viserys' new wife Alicent (OliviaCooke), however, interprets hisfinal words to mean he wants theirson Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney)to take the throne.Also in the mix is Matt Smith'sDaemon, Rhaenyra's husband andpaternal uncle, who some in theSeven Kingdoms would like to seenamed king himself.Season 2 ended with Alicentvisiting Rhaenyra at Dragonstoneand promising to allow Rhaenyra'stroops to enter King's Landing asconquerers with no opposition inan effort to end the bloodshed.Alicent also agreed to allowRhaenyra to publicly executeAegon, not knowing he hadalready run off.Meanwhile, Daemon bends theknee and swears allegiance toRhaenyra, instead of trying toseize the crown for himself.Spoilers ahead.Season 3 kicks off with thewomen's agreement underminedby their own sons and a hugebattle featuring ships and dragonstaking place.\"People have been accustomedto Game of Thrones seasonshaving a slow build and thenthere's an exploding midwaythrough, certainly near the end,\"Condal said.\"The fun of this one was like:'Well, that's it, everybody. The bellrings in the boxing ring, theycome out and we just throw ourhaymaker,'\" he added. \"It's goingto put people back on their heels,in a good way, because it justcomes out so heavy andunexpectedly.\"Condal said the tone of the showhas remained pretty consistentthroughout its three seasons.\"This is a Westerosian show, aShakespearean family tragedy.We've talked about that a lot in thebeginning,\" he explained.\"I think the mood of this probablychanges a little bit in Season 3 asthings get darkened, a bit bleaker.There are fits and startsthroughout Season 1 and Season2. You think, 'Well, maybe there'sa chance that they will lay downarms and go find a different wayto sort things out,'\" he said.\"But I think, as more and moreslights are leveled and more andmore loss is experienced on bothsides, a tit-for-tat brinksmanshipthat comes into play, we will sortof forget, 'What was the firstslight?'\" he added. \"There's somuch bad baggage about all thesecharacters, resentment that buildsand builds and builds.\"By Karen ButlerStar speaks on stunning 'House of the Dragon' Season 3 deathThe Game of Thrones prequel,House of the Dragon, openedSeason 3 with a stunning deaththat will, no doubt, have seriousramifications in upcomingepisodes.Spoilers ahead.After undermining a peace dealbetween his mother QueenRhaenyra (Emma D'Arcy) andAlicent (Olivia Cooke), themother of two challengers to theIron Throne, Jace (Harry Collett)flies into the sea battle of theGullet on his dragon Vermax.Vermax is mortally wounded andplunges Jace into the ocean wherehe is shot with numerous arrowsand dies.\"He's got a rough plan in his head,but everyone would probably thinkthat they have their ideas aboutbattle and not really realize howdifficult it is and I think he can bequite cocky sometimes in thinkingabout how good he is at certainthings,\" Collett, 22, said in a recentinterview.\"He's not really thought thisthrough massively. I think he'slike, 'OK, Mother's safe,'\" the actorsaid.\"This is probably the first time wesee Jace smile throughout,probably, the entire series. He'sjust been a grumpy teenagerbefore. But it shows what he reallyloves and what he's been waitingfor and this is the moment wherehe can prove that he's not just abastard. He wants to be a heroTargaryen, like everybody else.\"Collett said he didn't think Jacewould have sacrificed himself tosave Vermax if he had theopportunity.\"Going to be honest, no. Not for adragon,\" he explained.\"He knows that he's going to sit thethrone one day and that would bemore important to him and hecould possibly try and claimanother dragon,\" Collett added.Collett was sad to leave the showbut feels like his character got asatisfying send-off.\"I'm just very grateful I was evenin it in the first place. I would becontent, even if I went in Season1,\" he emphasized.\"It's such an amazing show and it'ssuch a once-in-a-lifetimeexperience,\" Collette added.\"I pinch myself every day becauseof it and am forever grateful. I'llnever look it and go, 'Damn, I'mdead in Season 3.' I'll never, everlook at it that way and what a goodway to go. It's not boring. It's quitean impactful death.
