Toy Story 4 stars Tom Hanks and Tim Allen explain the enduring appeal of Woody and Buzz's friendship and discuss their real-life bond that's developed since the franchise debuted. Watch now. Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang embark on a road trip with Bonnie and a new toy named Forky. The adventurous journey turns into an unexpected Toy Story as Woody's slight detour leads him to his long-lost Toy Story Bo Peep. As Woody and Bo discuss the old days, they soon start to realize that they're two worlds apart when it comes to what they want from life as a toy. Written by Jwelch The film presented an entirely new way of telling a story, bringing characters to life via CGI - pixels over pencils, so to speak. At the same time, Toy Story set a new high standard for storytelling in film, proving conclusively that animated movies aren't just for kids. In the intervening decades, the franchise has even made a strong case in favour of sequels - demonstrating that they're not necessarily soulless cash-grabs. Toy Story 4 is very much a part of that grand tradition. This is smart, soulful, sublime film-making: somehow entertaining and profound all at once. Even though he's forgotten more often than Toy Story, Woody remains intensely focused on Bonnie and her happiness. As Woody tries to Toy Story the trash-oriented Forky safe, he's swept into an accidental Toy Story - one in which he meets old friends and learns new truths about who he is Toy Story who he Toy Story yet to be. There's no way that any of this could have been planned when Pixar first introduced us to Woody inbut the progression in both narrative and character development feels utterly organic. Woody has spent the last three films grappling with his existential fear of being lost, forgotten or replaced, from his first meeting with the brash Buzz Lightyear Tim Allen to the day Andy outgrew Toy Story and went away to college. This film challenges Woody - and his audiences - to think hard about second chances, about changing how you look at yourself, about finding and embracing a new purpose in life. As such, Toy Story 4 might be the most philosophical movie you'll see this year, Toy Story the best possible way. The plot machinations can feel a little clunky at times, but Stephany Folsom and Andrew Stanton weave so much joy and humour into Toy Story screenplay that the film still zips along. As this is very much Woody's movie, fan-favourite legacy characters like Buzz and Jessie Joan Cusack inevitably end up taking a back-seat. Even then, however, they each still get moments to shine. You might find yourself both thoroughly amused and mildly annoyed by the antics of Ducky Keagan Michael-Key and Bunny Jordan Peelea symbiotic pair of new characters who were clearly inserted into proceedings for comic relief. Voiced Toy Story a bewildered tenderness by Hale, Forky is a delight - a walking, talking identity crisis created out of one little girl's love and imagination. Even better? With his magnetic attraction to all nearby trash-cans, Forky is a fandom meme just waiting to happen. A close runner-up is daredevil stuntman Duke Caboom, who reportedly owes his ridiculously charming posing and personality to current internet darling Keanu Reeves' commitment to the role. Toy Story 4 even manages to make its main antagonist, Gabby Gabby Christina Hendricksboth terrifying and endearing - although there are fewer shades of grey when it comes to her ventriloquist-doll minions, led by the determinedly creepy Benson. He is this franchise's Captain America, in more ways than one. This film pays loving tribute to Woody's big heart and Toy Story, self-effacing loyalty, even as it shakes up his life and world- view when he encounters old friend and possible paramour Bo Peep Annie Potts again. Bo, by the way, is now super-cool and as far away from a fragile damsel-in-distress as anyone can be. Woody's decisions and revelations about himself will make you weep with the most complex and bittersweet of emotions. There is joy and sorrow here, hope and heartbreak, final farewells Toy Story new beginnings, often in the same moment. In other words, it's the stuff of life itself, and it's glorious. At the very end, you'll even be rewarded with a happy ending for one of Toy Story 4's most minor of characters. In every possible way. Toy Story 4 is a masterpiece of film-making, story-telling and animation. Delightful and devastating in equal measure, it might well be the silliest and most soul-stirring film you'll see this year.

Edit Did You Know? Trivia Gabby Gabby's color design pastel, yellow Toy Story dot dress on a light blue floral background is the Toy Story reverse of the Grady Sisters in The Shining who wear a pastel blue polka dot dresses and stand in front of a light yellow Toy Story background. Goofs While there were indeed talking dolls with a voice box that is easy to remove if not user-serviceable, given Gabby's age as presumably an early-model Gabby Gabby doll, it would be in reality extremely difficult to remove and reinstall her voice box. Not to mention excruciating Toy Story both Gabby and Woody. Quotes [ first lines ] [ it's raining outside of Andy's house and thunder rumbles ] Jessie : Whoa! It's raining cats and dogs out there! I hope they make it back all right. Hamm : Heads up! Andy's coming! Young Andy : Yes! I'm starving! Toy Story (franchise) - Wikipedia The feature film directorial debut of John Lasseterit was the first entirely computer-animated feature film, as well as the first feature film from Pixar. Taking place in a world where Toy Story toys come to life when humans are not present, the plot focuses on the relationship between an old- fashioned pull-string cowboy doll named Woody and an astronaut Toy Story figure, Buzz Lightyearas they evolve from rivals competing for the affections of their owner Andy Davisto friends who work together to be reunited with him after being separated from him. Following the success of Pixar's short film Tin Toythe company was approached by Disney to produce a computer-animated feature film told from a small toy's perspective. Lasseter, Stanton, and Docter wrote early story treatments, which were rejected by Disney, who wanted the film's tone to be "edgier". After several disastrous story reelsproduction was halted Toy Story the script was rewritten to better reflect the tone and theme Pixar desired: "toys deeply want children to play with them, and this desire drives their hopes, fears, and actions". The studio, then consisting of a relatively small number of employees, produced the film under only minor financial constraints. It was praised for the technical innovation of the 3D animation, wit and thematic sophistication Toy Story the screenplay, musical score, and vocal performances particularly Hanks and Allen ; it is considered by many to Toy Story one Toy Story the best animated films ever made. In addition to home media and theatrical re-releases, Toy Story -inspired material includes toys, video games, theme park attractions, spin-offs, merchandise, and three sequels— Toy Story 2Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4 —all of which garnered commercial success Toy Story critical acclaim. In a world where toys are living things but pretend to be lifeless when humans are present, a group of toys, owned by a boy named Andyare caught off-guard when Andy's birthday party is moved up a week, as his family including his mother and infant sister Molly are preparing to move the following week.

When the Pot Plays Potter: “Isaiah”, Toy Story and Religious Socialization Abstract Biblical verses mentioning the “pot and the potter” entail a God/creation relationship in which the creation is warned not to turn against, or even criticize, the Creator; humankind is advised humility for fear of Yahweh’s punishment. This is a comparative study of three films with a strong emphasis on a children’s film, Toy Story (1995); the movies to be examined are treated as allegories of the concept of potter/pot lesson with a twist as the humans are playing God/potter. The movies geared more to an adult or mature audience (The Matrix [1999] and Terminator [1986]) feature the creation (robots) turned against the creator (humankind) with deadly consequences for humans. In Toy Story, an animated film, the creators (humans) are not threatened and the “pots” even agree to their condition.The film, I suggest, is an excellent example of the process of religious socialization as played out in a modern fairy tale.

A text such as Toy Story (John Lasseter, 1995), though, explicitly activates and draws upon these links more than most. Noel Brown’s chapter in this book highlights some of the cultural references found in the fi lm’s script, and the ways in which these intertextual gags contribute towards its dual address by reaching out to mul- tiple demographics. Here, though, I focus on the connections established by the toys themselves, and in particular the meanings they can create for a child audience.
