I think the world is in desperate need of a Toy Story/Child’s Play crossover.

Followed by _Toy Story vs Child’s Play vs Puppet Master_.

I haven’t seen 2 or 3 so maybe this idea is one of the options:

Andy’s child inherits his toys.

I really didn’t like #3, I am always surprised by the love for it. Thus why I think Pixar should devote its resources to other stories and projects. Monster U was good but not great. The Cars franchise sucks though I have yet to see Planes. I can’t imagine I would like it. Meanwhile the stand alone films are so good, I see no need for sequels.

He’d have to get them back from Bonnie.

Andy marries Bonnie to get his toys back, then their child gets the toys. It’ll have to be set ~20 years after the third film.  
12 years if it takes place in Arkansas.

Precisely.

I’d far rather see a great sequel to my favorite Pixar movie, _The Incredibles_.

Yeah, I have no idea where they’d go with an Incredibles sequel, but I have confidence that they could do a great job with it.

Well - in the original Child’s Play “Andy” was the kid right?

Having recently watched Curse of Chucky I fully endorse your idea

Yeah, that does sort of make you sigh when you watch the originals because it backfills unnecessary information into them. But, if you just act like those later movies were never made, it doesn’t ruin the originals. I’d rather they make a new Star Wars movie every year, and try to get it right, and if they do, great! If not, I still have the originals. But, yeah, midichlorians might be another exception because it creeps backwards.

Same with Toy Story. I’m, essentially, a Vulcan with no emotions. But, goddamn did that third movie have me sitting there with my son and blubbering like a baby. I say keep making them, and if they blow, I’ll stop watching them, and I’ll still blubber like a baby when they all link hands and look in each others’ eyes in the third one (Jesus, I’m tearing up right now!).
