A Deus Ex Machina is "a plot device whereby a seemingly unsolvable problem is suddenly and abruptly resolved, with the contrived and unexpected intervention of some new event, character, ability, or object".
However, in ancient Greek, the term describes a giant crane used to lift up actors.
The characters in Toy Story 3 are saved by both definitions of Deus Ex Machina.
