>How long will it last, Woody? Do you really think Andy is going to take you to college, or on his honeymoon? Andy's growing up, and there's nothing you can do about it. It's your choice, Woody. You can go back, or you can stay with us and last forever. You'll be adored by children for generations.
I re-watched the other movies after watching 4 today and you guys weren't meming, he was right. Hell, the third movie proved him right.
>You'll be adored by children for generations.
Nothing in any museum is adored by any child.
How long until we get to Toy Story 5 where Woody finds his way to Stinky Pete's museum?
>tfw this is metaphor for friendships and marriages in general
But Andy was going to take Woody to college
>Andy was actually gonna take Woody to his honeymoon and roleplay as a cowboy arresting his bank robbing wife
I-i loved the museum of natural history as a kid user... My dad would take me once a year when he visited
Until some goblina toddler gave him a sad look. Some friend.
True, TS4 ruined TS3's ending and message
Would he have taken him on his honeymoon, though?
I know plenty of people that have at least 1 childhood toy displayed or kept with them
Which kind of points out the problem I've always had with Toy Story: it's about stupid, lame toys instead of cool ones.
Hell, even Small Soldiers when it came out seemed a LITTLE lame-looking for its premise. In retrospect now it looks amazing, but at the time my standards were fucking high.
For a movie about toys, I wanted something with the creativity and sculpting quality Playmates was putting out, the style and proportion of the comics-accurate DC/Marvel figures coming out at the time, and the bitchin subject matter only Japan regularly presents.
not a goofy cloth cowboy doll and a fucking gay playskool-ass babby's-first-spaceman with spherical eyes
shit, he was right.
Nothing in any hobbyist museum, you mean. Dinosaurs were the fucking coolest as a kid.
I have a gengar figurine in my backpack just in case homestuck is real and I need something to prototype
If Toy Story taught me one thing, I'm convinced my Amiibo come to life when i'm not home
Woody's supposed to be lame though, it's why everyone was so impressed by Buzz.
>not a goofy cloth cowboy doll and a fucking gay playskool-ass babby's-first-spaceman with spherical eyes
Hey fuck you, Buzz is based
>He's never been to a children's museum
>Do you really think Andy is going to take you to college
The ending of Toy Story 3 was spoiled right there.
Toy Story 2 is the weakest out of 1-3. And possibly weaker than 4.
then it would probably benefit you to stop cumming on your amiibo all of the time
Cars 2 is stronger then TS4
That's kind of the problem with 4 admitting the system is fucked. The other movies kind of rely on the toys (and viewers) falling ack on a sort of faith in the higher authorities of the movie (humans). You kind of have to shut out the facts and think, "It doesn't always end up that way!" and look at how things end up for the heroes. But then you stop doing that, and it really shatters that illusion the faith built up between the movies created. This isn't just something that happens to a few unfortunate toys, this is stuff that will happen to all of them. Pete and Lotso just wanted to find an alternative to the system because they knew the one they were in would end badly for them. Which at this point, seems to the the truth.
TS4 is about the toy's ego death and transformation into living things, not just toys. TS5 will be about war with the humans.
Even in the best case scenario, where someone keeps their toy for their whole lives... what happens after they die? I feel like the toys are doomed simply by virtue of being immortal while the beings that give them meaning and validation are not.
Toy Story 3 kind of answered that by implying by passing the torch, even the oldest of toys could continue receiving validation. But 4 really poked every hole possible into that idealistic ending.
No way.
Tou Story ranking is this: 1 > 2 > 3 > 4
And Woody is also based if you remove 4 from the canon.
>Toy Story 3 kind of answered that by implying by passing the torch, even the oldest of toys could continue receiving validation. But 4 really poked every hole possible into that idealistic ending.
Jessie got that.
I thought so too when I originally saw it. But having seen them all recently, It pretty much tackles 3s ideas in a more clear cut way. And Jessie was interesting because she took what was treated as mild concern by other characters and turned it into existential panic.
4 just pooints out the inevitability that the next kid in line won't always share the taste/interests that will make the hand-me-down toy appealing.
Fuck off bait faggot.
Of course everyone dies sometime. Do you really think all of Andy and Sid's toys made it?
>Of course everyone dies sometime.
That's just it. Toys don't seem to have this to fall back on. Humans will often perish because they feel completely obsolete or alone. Toys don't.
I think Woody states Pete is not wrong but he still got a responsibility with Andy.
It is his duty which binds him and that is why Pete is the villain.
I think the problem is that Pete and Lotso were forcing other toys to take part in their plans. The thing is, with how co-dependent all the toys seem to be naturally, that may be the only real way to break the current system and create a new one. No toy is going to agree to creating a new system while they are still feeling the high from being the center of attention. And by the time they realize what their mistake, it will be too late to do anything about it.
Why didn't the other toys help out Woody or Buzz during the film until the very end? Jessie and Bullseye in particular would've both been extremely useful. It's also not like Bonnie gave a shit when Buzz disappeared either as she was too distracted by Forky's disappearance so a few of then probably could've slipped out for a few hours to help out.
I feel like half the cast was missing/underused. Potato Head might as well have been absent.
At least it'll be better at Smash than the other toys.
If people died because they felt obsolete or alone then Yea Forums would be devoid of anyone.
Hell, I have some old kotobukiya action figures from 10 years ago that I dusted off and put on display in my room, just because I didn't like the thought of some of my old favorite robot toys collecting dust in a corner. Now they guard my spare change jar against the onslaught of roaches, spiders and those weird super-poisonous centipedes.
I don't even regret it.
Both he and Lotso may have been technically correct, but they also made the mistake of trying to forcefully impose that on others and that is what makes them villains. They were selfish, fearful, and domineering and wanted everyone to think like them. Their own experiences give them justifiable reasons to feel and think the way they did, but it doesn't apply universally and the experiences of Andy's toys, especially Woody, show them otherwise and give them drive to stand for something more.
Not me. I felt validated by my perv hunts during my early teen years.
>wanting a trickster ghost kernal sprite
nigga u dumb
Toy Story feels like Star Trek for kids.
They're always exploring and getting into hijinks, rescuing each other and meeting leaders of new settlements with opposing philosophies to their own.
3 > 1 > 2 > Power Gap > 4
Now I wanna see a Smash Bros/Toy Story crossover fanfic.
I mean he was obviously right even in 2. The point was that Woody chose love even knowing he would eventually have to leave it behind, rather than an eternity of being appreciated but never having a truly mutual relationship with another kid. The sequels change nothing.
In fact, that's kind of why I dislike 3. It's just the toys dealing with the same dilemma they did in 2 and Lotso's point of view is barely different from Pete's.
Wonder if the big plastic dinosaurs in museums come to life. They are made of the same things as any toy. Basically Night at the Museum could be in the Toy Story world.
Isn't a Honeymoon just a single trip? Unless someone throws Woody away for no reason Andy will just pick him back once their done and move into their new home or whatever.
tell me, at what point in star trek did the captain completely give up, lay down, and accept they're a complete and total failure.
Yes there is. You were just a stupid child, user.
lot's of people keep childhood toys to pass on to their kids, which was the case with Toy Story 1 as Woody is Andy's fathers toy.
I fucking loved museums as a kid because they had dinosaurs and swords and shit, I'm sorry you apparently didn't love dinosaurs and swords and shit as a kid.
The new Picard movie/series, if Patrick Stewart is to be believed.
I love all the toy story films,but as I grew older, I have noticed that the series always portray
adult toy lover & collectors in a negative& pathetic way.
Could someone explain to me why ? In real life, adult collectors are usually the one that treat the toys well and in good preservation
Because a toy wants to be played with, he wants to have adventure in the world of imagination like is shown at the beginning of toy story 1 and 3, not just placed on a shelf and occasionally posed.
Because that sounds nice and all up until you realize that it's the in-universe equivalent of dressing up your children every day and showing them off to your adult friends parties, never letting them talk to other kids.
Nothing after Voyager ended is canon, none of it, you can't convince me otherwise
>Potato Head might as well have been absent
user, I...
None of them went to the museum in 2.
what are we up to 4 of the original cast being dead?
user, Woody acknowledged he was right WITHIN THE MOVIE ITSELF. He turned him down anyway.
The horror bishoujou girls.
What would these girls's personality be like and how are they going to react to the others toys of Andy ?
>Wanting to give Gengar powers to sburb mobs
If you don't have a Heart player in your session it's the dumbest idea ever
Like your typical anime girl archtype with a running gag of murder.
Toy Story : Night at the Museum
Literally Yuno Gasai.
I wonder how they keep the children still for the 10 hours a day the museum is open. Must get lonely being encased behind glass.
I used to smile a lot when I went to the museum and still see kids doing the same these days.
it might not be the same as having kids play with you but at least you are not stuck in a box in the garage for years
the get the same drugs to knock out children which the democratic party and hollywood use for their pedo orgys
i think it would be really cute if she actually is very shy and easily scared but loves to hug people
no but andy would have eventually gifted woody to his children and watch them play with him
buddy?? did you ever play with toys as a kid?? like ever?
Kids dont cling to whatevers the coolest highest quality toy on the market, its whatever is special to them for whatever reason. thats literally the plot of the first half of toy story 4.
I'd love a short where Woody comes across another lost toy but it's actually Stinky Pete who lived a life being played with by a child but also saw the writing on the wall when she grew up and bailed with his Barbie harem to make some makeshift toy society hidden from people. Maybe he smugly tells the cowboy that he was ultimately right about kids but also Woody was right about the utter bliss of being played with, having companions, experiencing love that he for decades never knew. Maybe the time he was sentenced to made him better as a person overall and he offers Woody some kind of goodwill to his own road in life after their meeting.
Lotso was an ass who presumably sent plenty of toys to their death and even almost condemned the main characters as well in TS3, Pete meanwhile never went to the extreme of that and seeing him get a kind of redemption like Gabby would be nice.
The fate of Pete isn't very bad at all. He just gets experience to be a toy played by kids.
Stinky Pete was supposed to be wrong. The whole message of Toy Story 2 was that friendship was more important than glory. Woody chose to stay with his Andy and his friends even if that meant that one day Andy will leave them.
Then 2 movies later, Woody ditches his friends to get that porcelain ass.
Woody was always meant to be an asshole. Buzz is a better friend than he ever deserved.
you chowda head I thought i told you to fix the pipes
It's cute until you get a pair of scissors jammed into your spine
He would've taken a Woody on his honeymoon, that's for sure.
Do Warhammer figurines come to life in the toy story universe?
Do realdolls?
Wrong.
R. Lee Ermy, Jim Varney, Don Rickles, and?
I always visited the dinosaur and air and space museums when I visited my grandparents.
It's funny to think that everyone being bros when nobody is looking.
>implying old marines and chaos wouldn't team up to bully the goldenboy sigmarines
>democratic party
>he thinks the GOP innocent
Spot the bias retard. While I'm 95% sure Trump isn't a pedo, the vast majority of the Republican Party is just as pedo as the dems with Lindsey Graham as the head honcho.
They don't.
Part of the problem of running a museum involves dealing with asshole kids smashing and peeing on everything and asshole parents who refuse to say "No" to their kids.
>chaos
>marinelet
It all makes sense now...
>super-poisonous centipedes
Australia? Or some movie reference? I live in the states, southeastern part, but I got centipedes too, they just aren't super-poisonou, just assholes.
>My ranking of all the Toy Story films:
2>3>1
4 isn't ranked because I haven't seen it yet.
I don't think any Toy aside from Stinky would ever be on board with spending the rest of their lives in glass case in a Japanese Museum dedicated to an obscure short-lived tv show from decades past. What child would even want to visit that?
Joe Ranft.
I just watched it, some kid cried when the Gabby gabby and the minion wooden doll showed up.
It was a good movie, can't argue with that, but I am left feeling frustrated at how underused most of the old characters are, though it's understandable why they are underused, it hurts the narrative with Woody leaving not being very emotional since nobody really gives a shit about him in that house anymore.
It also bothers me that Gabby gabby got away scot-free with psychologically overpowering Woody into giving her the voice box, but it's ok because she just wants a kid to love her and it's not like Bonnie gives a rat's ass.
Toy Story 4 was intense
There's really a toy of Bo that can be undressed to that point?.
The official Disney Store one. They even made her have detailed panties. proof the mouse promotes degeneracy
Pete is written in a way to suggest that he craves fame more than love. He was robbed of that fame when Buzz Lightyear became popular and seeks to attain it again by going to a museum.
I feel like this movie tends to forget, or outright ignore that children today are playing video games or on social media more than previous generations. Kingdom Hearts nailed Toy Story more in that it shows that Andy's playing video games alongside his toys.
I wonder what would anime figures like Figuarts and Figma act like in Toy Story universe.
Go back to /toy/.
Woody accepting some of the truth in stinky pete's line of thought was already a pretty strong plot point on toy story 3.
things must get interesting for people who collect warhammer stuff.
If you do end up player Sburb, you'll be at home anyway since that's the point of the session.
cases of warhammer figurines in my attic, just waiting for the right moment...
Explain this reasoning.
nigger they had animatronic T-Rexes that watch you walk in the room and sniff at you if you get close for the last 20 years
they have collections of things that nobody else has and DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT KIDS LOVE TO DO THAT'S RIGHT NIGGER THEY LOVE TO COLLECT RANDOM SHIT
that shit is hard-coded into everybody's DNA and you not understanding it? probably defective
museums are cool, it's the assholes who drag you around them like it's the goddamned supermarket and they just want to git r dun that are the problem
Fuck i had no idea
I'd like to show you guys some photos I took when I went to this dollarama museum up in the Shenandoah one summer a year or two ago. A lot of these as you can see are on tracks, sets where they love around as scenes.
We saw a kid, about 6 or 7ish walking around up at these displays. He legit ran out crying.
The reason I bring this up is because my mother was a child in the 70s. She said these kinds of dolls were what she grew up with, and to her they are warm endearing memories of a time when she was little. The stark contrast to today, where children are almost afraid to even look at these things really separates old toys from new, it creates an age barrier that many children aren't able to overlook easily.
I still have a T-Rex from Jurassic Park's first toy line in my computer desk. Fucker lost an arm, most of the paint has fallen off and it has a big tear in its right leg; but i still love the fact that it was the first toy i remember having and is still around with me.
>no movie about a society of toys living a la Ahhh Real Monsters in a junkyard.
>no movie with Buzz and Woody in the bleak future of Wall-E.
The notion that toys can be passed down from generations is an... optimistic ideal. I played with tinker toys when I was at my grandma's house and I had a gay old time. Jacks and shit like that were fun to a degree, but how could I sty focused on that shit when nerf guns, hotwheels racetracks, and action figures were on commercials on the TV literally right next to me? I don't mean to imply commercialism is 100% to blame, but we as a society do very little to allow the old to coexist with the new like that. Unless you're, say, poor.
last pic.
You make a good point. When I was a kid growing up in the 90's, I had a lot of Star Wars toys because it was my favorite thing in the world (still is except for the Disney shit and I still have all those toys). My uncle gave me all his old figures from the 70's and 80's and I had tons of the new ones from the 90's. There was no question to me which ones I liked more, the 90's ones. They had better detail/looked more like the characters, had more accessories and more vehicles, and were just higher quality in general. I still liked the older figures well enough, but they were no substitute for the more modern ones they were making at the time. Funny thing is the 90's and 00's ones are far, far superior to the ones they make now though since in the name of cutting costs they circled back around to making lower quality toys like the 80's ones again. I bet kids nowadays, assuming any of them even like Star Wars, would probably be more into the toys I grew up with than the current ones.
based devilposter
No, it's 1>3>2>>>.
This is why the Post-third movie shorts were the right place to stop.
One of them it's precisely about Xmas, and how videogames should neither be entirely ignored, or be the only a kid has fun with.
The Halloween short was also decent.
how many shorts are there?
3 brief ones.
2 extended ones.
The first was about Ken and Barbie throwing a shitfit because they wanted to visit Hawaii (kinda meh).
Second was about Buzz being usurped by a Not-McDonalds version of him (boring).
Third was Rex being a dumbass, seeking validation with some random bath tub toys, and making a fucking mess of soap and shit (it's really bad).
Fourth one it's the Halloween special, where Jessie begins to overcome her claustrophobia, with the help of a G. I. Joe expy, who helps her and the others to escape from some fucker that uses a trained iguana to steal toys, and sell them on eBay (really fucking good).
Finally, the Christmas episode it's about a fuckload of dinosaur toys that take their role way too seriously (think 1st movie's Buzz); the dinosaurs do whatever the fuck they want, because the kids get obsessed with a VR game, but in the end, everything gets balanced, because the female triceratops toy saves the day (it's also surprisingly good).
Except he wasn't, Woody is now helping toys be cherished by children, something that wouldn't have happened if he was stuck in a museum.
Why did Bo Peep seem rebellious against the notion of being with a kid again, when as a lost toy she still embodied and held dear the principal of toys helping children? It seems a bit ass-backwards.
I really had a hard time not imagining the whole thing a parallel to the concept of open/loose romantic relations and relationships with 1st world human romances
That's exactly what it was. Brainwashing little girls to be promiscuous whores because MUH INDEPENDENCE AND FREE SPIRIT. It's disgusting propaganda.
This. After you had a friend or love utterly betray you, you never look at relationships with naive fully trusting eyes again.
hey dumdum he was making a joke about the museum displaying children instead of being a collection of items that children specifically would enjoy.
>Toys
IN TO THE TANK
It's probably more than just a Woody museum.
Maybe a whole cowboy museum.
Funny enough, Toy Story 2 is pretty much what happened to the original Thomas engines; they're all in a train museum in Japan.
The degenerated mastermind behind this.
FPWP
Every time you open your mouth the whole world witnesses your ignorance
I mean, I had sentimental -stuffed animals-
but toys, of the literally hundreds I had and still have, were about being cool. they were about playing and using your imagination, and my imagination was cool and violent. and it was VERY at risk for being made fun of by others, so it had ZERO babyish shit like buzz lightyear in it.. i mean that shit didn't much exist yet, but man did it ever come into vogue in the 2000s when I was a teenager
She technically wasn't a toy, but a lamp, which is probably why she doesn't have any strong feelings about being played with like the other toys, but does feel a need to help them by guiding them to the 'light' so to speak.
Look at this Awful taste
You would die on earth if homestuck was real. Your not a kid on your 13th birthday waiting for sburb

What ?
how exactly do you think wargaming works user?
It's all over the place.
Checkers are not sentient.
But hockey disks are sentient.
Videogames are not sentient.
But the spelling toys is sentient.
Toy guns are not sentient.
But toy cars are sentient (not just RC,but regular, non-faced cars as well)
Lego pieces, piggy banks, and lamp accesories are sentient.
But poker cards, puzzles, bouncy balls and the like aren't.
I have absolutely no idea and I'm not even sure if a grid playing field is involved
>Videogames are not sentient
But they probably are, via. WIR.
Most importantly, are sex dolls sentient?
I would have my toys become assassins and saboteurs, should I learn they are alive. No one expects a toy.
And weaker than you bait too
Yeah Pete is just so vain. At worst he'll just have some scribbles and marks on his faces like the Barbies but otherwise will be intact.
>counting Voyager
You're a stronger man than I, that's for sure.
If the Green Army soldiers come to life, then the minifgures should do so as well.
Gabby Gabby was able to grab Woody's voice box forcedly in that situation, but she didn't choose to do that. She never hurts Forky and she sees Forky as her friend. Her peptalk with Forky changed each other. Fork told Woody's story with Andy let her know his noble loyalty of toy. Gabby read the storybook along with Forky made him feel he's no more a trash. When she was rejected by Harmony, she just felt she's useless again, she didn't fall into dark side, she even agreed Woody can take back the voice box. She's different from Lotso and Pete because she still has kindness inside her heart.
Anyone else feel like they took too many liberties with the rules of Toys in this movie? it got to the point where the climax had them outright talking to the humans, but SO LONG AS THEY AREN'T SEEN IT'S OKAY I guess
also Forky's pipe cleaners can somehow lock a car door
Still less than how Woody scared Sid in Toy Story 1.
But that was the only instance of it happening, giving the scene a ton of impact and memorability. Here they do it practically all the time, like so long as the toy isn't physically seen by humans they can do whatever the fuck they want, far more than the other movies did (2's car chase comes to mind as the most extreme before this movie)
Nope, not unless a kid takes ownership of them. Maybe in some post apocalyptic future a kid spray paints his name on a dino and it comes to life.
>Woody is Andy's fathers toy.
Wouldn't he recall that?
He seems to have amnesia about the whole thing for the sake of audience nostalgia being focused on Andy.
I kind of want to see some stuck-up tabletop figurines in one of these. They'd get to brag about their past roles as heroes and villains. Skeleton number 5 can be sad that he never gets to be a main character. You could have unpainted figs grumbling about their lazy DM.
Donald "tie her to a bed" Trump disagrees.
if there HAD to be another Toy Story (we all know it'll happen someday anyway, let's not kid ourselves), the thing I'd like to see covered is the rise of technology entertaining kids more than toys. They had that a bit in that one Toy Story short but you could definitely go deeper, I think.
But also I think it would be best if they had entirely different characters for it.
>Then 2 movies later, Woody ditches his friends
He leaves his friends for another friend.
Depends on who owns them and their motivation for playing is.
He'll be back with them because money says so. They can't stop Andy from growing up but they sure as shit can stop the toys being separated. And they will flanderize Buzz even further too.
>While I'm 95% sure Trump isn't a pedo
He's buddy buddy with Epstein...
She's not really a toy, she's never had the same experience as Woody. She's more interested in the lives of other toys.
So if Woody was a single-example toy, how come Pete, Jessie, and Bullseye made it to the packaging state? Why would the other characters have had made it to production level while Woody didn't and was the central star?
>Hurr Durr Pete is right
Well no shit, we saw this very fact with Jesse and Woody outright admits that he is right.
The point was for being there for Andy in the PRESENT instead of solely worrying about the future.
She could have physically overpowered him but chose to do it mentally and somehow that makes her a good person?
Just moments before she had her minion tey to rip the voice box out of him. She's manipulative, all the other toys reaction to her established her as some sort of mob boss.
true, woody is a piece of shit
youtube.com
I don't like how forced Bo and Woody's relationship was, she's like an abused girlfriend justifying her ex being reckless and endangering everyone.
Her relationship with Giggles was much more natural but you can't have a gay toy main heroine in Disney can you.
?
Hey buddy, remember when they opened a truck hatch in full view of whoever was on the street? Remember when Woody pretend to be Sid's mom to get his sister to piss off?
>Andy Woody and Buzz gangbanging Andy's wife
I said she had chances to go worse but she didn't choose it because she's not fully bad actually. Her desperation of gaining love from kids motivated the kidnapping but she has no intention to hurt anyone. She may have done the wrong things but she's still redeemable.
Wtf, I love TS4 now
And that lesson was...?
TS4 didn't fucked any lesson from the other movies, it fucked the way you used to see them.
TS4 is based as fuck if it crushes childish malinterpretations of the viewers.
2 > 1 > 4 >>> 3
Pretty sure it was the plot of the milftoon parody... except it was his mom.
Based.
Deepest lore. That's fuckin' brilliant user.
Holy fuck! That adds a lot of complexity to the first movie. Woody represents Andy's father, and Buzz represents Andy's mother. The whole conflict of the movie between Woody and Buzz was a symbol for the inner conflict between Andy facing the divorce of their parents.
>Divorce
Andy's dad died
hims be dead my dude you can't have two parents in a kids movie that's sacrilege
We just saw Bonnie's mom and dad in this movie though.
like I said, sacrilege
The Incredibles?
ok so there's one movie with two parents
Is that implied in some of the films? Please talk about a concrete moment...
Honestly I'd like to see them take a sort of Wreck-It-Ralph approach in a future movie, where characters from various video games and mobile/f2p game garbage (or maybe even collector's figures like anime nendoroids and shit) have slowly evolved into a new 'form of life' thanks to everyone from children to boomer adults now projecting their attention, imaginations and "love" onto them instead, while the toys themselves devolve into an "endangered" species of sorts due to an increasing number of children no longer bothering to play with them to bring them to life anymore.
Imagine the potential they could do with a concept like that. I feel like this should've been what WiR was, but they kind of dropped the ball on that by basing the whole thing within an arcade, which removed any chance of them developing a personal attachment to a single owner and vice-versa. Or maybe they didn't and they did something like this in the second film? Wouldn't know since I never bothered watching it.
That doesn't even make sense. Why is like that? It is an American thing?
Coco had the two parents of Miguel.
Wait, did you get this from that one Sid/Andy fanfic, or is this actually canon
Wow some people really think 4 is better than 2? Me and my friends still quote 2 to this day, can't think of anything in 4 that I could quote. 'The kidnapper was bigger than that' 'Oh picky picky picky' 'He's selling himself for 25 cents' "Oh Woody you're worth more than that" 'I'll give you 50 bucks' '50 bucks that ain't bad'. 'I'm a married spud, I'm a married spud' 'Then make room for single fellas!' Brilliant, i could go on.
So this comes from Ranft he says that Andy's dad is also named Andy, he was sick as a kid with Polio as is the case with Polio you have to burn all your belongings but he hid away a few toys, Woody, Slink, and Mr. Potatoe Head, this is how he got Woody in the first place he wrote in asking for a toy and since he was a dying child they sent him the only thing they had, the prototype.
Anyway Andy's dad forgets about the toys he stashed away, he gets married has two kids then dies of something Polio related, Andy his son finds the toys at the funeral being held at his grandmothers house, and the toys don't know Andy isn't Andy Sr. but Andy Jr. because they've been locked up so long they and they don't know he's dead they think it's the same kid and don't know any time has passed.
Ranft is dead now and it kinda holds up if this is true becasuse if you look at the pictures on the wall in Toy Story 1 they're not picture of Andy Jr. he doesn't wear glasses for one thing and they're clearly a picture of him wearing glasses.
I dunno it's a dumb trope, kids in kids movies only ever have one parental adult in their lives
Not that user your replying to, but I knew about these rumors a while back, shame that Pixar never had the balls to follow through with them for any of the actual movies.
Though I always kind of assumed that Woody might've been the reincarnation of Andy's dead dad or something stupid like that, which would explain Woody and Andy's weirdly-close bond with each other or why Woody was so dedicated to Andy to begin with, but after looking back, the whole planned plotline from Ranft is clearly better and makes so much sense.
Pete was never wrong, he was just a dickhead.
Wtf is the point of this wildly overcomplicated backstory?
I think he also said that the Andy written on Woody is his fathers handwriting, if you look at the Andy written on Buzz and the one written on Woody they're similar but different.
Pixar saddness
Mmm... that's stupid. It's anecdotic and doesn't add nothing to the theme of the actual movie.
We need proof from the movies... a dialoge or a photogram that we can analyze
I need to go to this museum.
>We can live forever, behind glass, admired in a museum.
But that's not living for a toy. That's almost like having yourself permanently cryogenically frozen. Did he really think he was going to be "adored" by children in a glass display?
At best he'd be nostalgia'd over by the few adults who bother to go to those sorts of places.
it is stupid, but it's from the writer, and I'm with you if it didn't happen in a movie it didn't fucking happen but otherwise it's typical for one parent to be dead in child programming.

Of course that there are a lot of shows and movies with one parent of with orphan protagonist... but I don't think it's like a trend. There are a lot of shows with two parents too...
Link would likely be in that too, yes.

They wanted to make Woodie special.
He obviously meant manchildren you nimrod.
I have a slightly chewed plush Giraffe with a music box inside that plays "Talk to the animals". I've had it literally since I was born, and consider it something of a good luck charm because I nearly died in the hospital as a baby.
Ham and Potato Head basically aren't even in 4, no wonder it has no funny lines. Those two are the comedic heart and soul of the franchise.
they tried to replace them with key and peele, to ill effect

>forcing culture
But user, that's fucking retarded and only diminishes the chances of children becoming interested in it. It must be a natural process... and there is no guarantee that they will like this particular aspect.
I find it weird how Bo boasts about being a lost toy and being free of an owner, when she and her tag-along group deliberately travel from hot spot to hot spot of children playing to be played with. They deliberately have her just throw herself in the middle of a playground where a bunch of kids on a field trip come bursting into. Her talk of freedom implies she isn't beholden to the old ways of toys relying on kids but this implies the opposite: That a toy needs to be played with or else something happens to them. You've seen what happened to Pete and Gabby Gabby; they go fucking nuts.
I see it as Bo, and probably some of the other toys that are like her, either still bitter or insecure of the whole being given/sold away from their kid, so in their case they would rather be the ones who would break off before the other party does.
They were funny, but it was a different kind of comedy. Didn't fill the void.
That's weirdly sexual.

The thing about these statements in the toy story movies is that they aren’t wrong, they are absolutely right.
But you shouldn’t screw over what you established regardless of the truth especially if you have people that love you.
Yeah I kinda got that vibe from her. She was trying her hardest to sell Woody on this whole lost toy thing from the moment they meet again. She wouldn't stop shooting down his views and at one point she even makes a rasberry noise with her tongue to show disdain for previous owners. It's like when a petulant child sees another child get an expensive gift or something but they try to rationalize the unfairness of it all by lashing out and being contrarian.
Damn! Now I feel bad that the Toy Story 2 movie sorta shat on the concept of the museum. As a person who animated for the the show once, I'd love to see this at some point in my life.
So any chance that they'll produce Toy Story shorts and films following the 4th's ending like we've seen with "toy story toons" and the Halloween special?
I wish they wouldn't, they've done more than enough damage with 4 already. But they probably will.
Surprisingly wholesome given the poster.
