00:01:34   opening statements [TS]

00:01:35   alright so toys story to the the sequel [TS]

00:01:38   to the first full-length [TS]

00:01:41   computer-animated feature which is a [TS]

00:01:43   huge hit in 1995 and they followed it up [TS]

00:01:47   a several years later with this the [TS]

00:01:51   final in the biology of toy story until [TS]

00:01:54   then many years later they made third [TS]

00:01:56   one another making fourth one but but [TS]

00:01:59   toy story 2 is fun to revisit this is [TS]

00:02:00   actually after a while I kind of forgot [TS]

00:02:02   what was in what movie and this was [TS]

00:02:04   delightful to revisit it [TS]

00:02:05   I should I just do as I traditionally do [TS]

00:02:08   which is walk us through the plot and [TS]

00:02:09   let you stop me and tell me what you [TS]

00:02:11   want to tell and then I try to move on [TS]

00:02:13   and then steve says what wait wait wait [TS]

00:02:14   you missed something and then we back up [TS]

00:02:16   and then we go forward we do that it's [TS]

00:02:18   it's working also how it works that's [TS]

00:02:20   how it works [TS]

00:02:21   Aloha basically stop now Aloha hello [TS]

00:02:24   although it's funny that you mentioned [TS]

00:02:25   that that you kind of forgot what goes [TS]

00:02:27   where because the first thing i noticed [TS]

00:02:29   while watching this movie is I don't [TS]

00:02:32   really remember much of went on in this [TS]

00:02:34   movie and I've seen this like five or [TS]

00:02:36   six times and I I I think it's because [TS]

00:02:38   the the emotional core of the movie is [TS]

00:02:41   so strong that the sort of standard toys [TS]

00:02:47   you know searching to rescue to rescue [TS]

00:02:49   woody kind of stuff which is all pretty [TS]

00:02:51   good it just it feels kind of slight by [TS]

00:02:54   comparison and it's it's like I didn't [TS]

00:02:56   even remember the fact that it opened [TS]

00:02:58   with the big zerg right sort of a video [TS]

00:03:03   game thing it just completely slipped my [TS]

00:03:05   mind and I was surprised to see it there [TS]

00:03:06   i have the opposite experience I i [TS]

00:03:08   remember these openings like the big 3d [TS]

00:03:11   shiny letters coming at you like they're [TS]

00:03:13   from an eighties a Superman movie or [TS]

00:03:15   something [TS]

00:03:15   I remember going into this having come [TS]

00:03:18   out of toy story and been like you know [TS]

00:03:19   well how they going to talk story to [TS]

00:03:21   like they're blowing it [TS]

00:03:23   they're doing a sequel is silly and just [TS]

00:03:24   being delighted by how off-balance the [TS]

00:03:28   department you know like obviously this [TS]

00:03:30   would become a thing with the story 3d [TS]

00:03:32   hoping the same way with sort of the the [TS]

00:03:34   world of imagination of the toys but [TS]

00:03:36   that scene and the fact that it opened [TS]

00:03:39   and it took itself seriously with buzz [TS]

00:03:40   flying through the the canyons I mean [TS]

00:03:42   and of course the graphics looked a lot [TS]

00:03:44   better to me back then [TS]

00:03:45   sure i found that delightful and I was [TS]

00:03:47   surprised watching this movie how not [TS]

00:03:49   only do I remember every single scene [TS]

00:03:50   every single line every single character [TS]

00:03:52   every single nuance of the animation [TS]

00:03:53   every single little character movement [TS]

00:03:56   just I think i imprinted much more [TS]

00:03:58   strongly on this movie and I remember [TS]

00:04:01   being riveted and i'm watching and i'm [TS]

00:04:03   watching years and years watching it [TS]

00:04:04   again it was kind of like watching one [TS]

00:04:06   of those movies in the eighties that is [TS]

00:04:08   just sort of like soaked into your bones [TS]

00:04:10   that it's kind of part of you you know [TS]

00:04:11   realize how much until you watch it [TS]

00:04:13   again [TS]

00:04:13   well I haven't watched it since since i [TS]

00:04:16   saw it in the theater in 1999 until i [TS]

00:04:19   saw one out of the podcast but it all [TS]

00:04:22   came back i mean i reckon i remembered [TS]

00:04:24   everything and as it's playing out oh [TS]

00:04:25   yes oh yes oh yes and of course the [TS]

00:04:27   reason I didn't [TS]

00:04:28   watch it in all that time is because it [TS]

00:04:30   tears me up [TS]

00:04:32   it's true I did have that moment in fact [TS]

00:04:33   i told my wife that we were doing a [TS]

00:04:35   pixar 44 I was a new installment of [TS]

00:04:37   pixar club and she said which wich Pixar [TS]

00:04:40   movie that makes me cry will you be [TS]

00:04:41   watching this diamond I said boys she's [TS]

00:04:44   all I could tell you exactly what scene [TS]

00:04:45   will make me cries and oh I know I know [TS]

00:04:48   I know what the crying crying scenes are [TS]

00:04:50   in toy story 2 before they figured out [TS]

00:04:52   they can make a whole movie do that with [TS]

00:04:53   inside out [TS]

00:04:54   that's the thing is i remembered the the [TS]

00:04:56   scenes very well obviously I remember [TS]

00:04:59   the big sort of centerpiece song and I [TS]

00:05:02   remembered all the stuff where they're [TS]

00:05:03   hanging out Alice apartment and all the [TS]

00:05:06   sort of emotional you know stuff about [TS]

00:05:09   being eventually abandoned and and the [TS]

00:05:13   children child moving on and forgetting [TS]

00:05:15   their toys and all that stuff I [TS]

00:05:16   remembered all that extremely well it's [TS]

00:05:17   just each everything else besides that [TS]

00:05:19   it's just like gone and i remember when [TS]

00:05:22   i watch the movie of course I know yeah [TS]

00:05:24   i remember this space and I remember [TS]

00:05:26   them crossing the road here but if I if [TS]

00:05:27   you would ask me before watching the [TS]

00:05:29   movie again what happens in this movie [TS]

00:05:31   can you tell me what seems occur i could [TS]

00:05:32   i would have said well there's the thing [TS]

00:05:34   in the apartment it and that's it and [TS]

00:05:36   there's the sad scene with the Sarah [TS]

00:05:38   McLachlan song i would i would have been [TS]

00:05:39   able to call that out ya know there's [TS]

00:05:41   the part where I cry [TS]

00:05:43   yeah damn right I think some part of the [TS]

00:05:46   like it for the people who didn't [TS]

00:05:47   remember my impression rewatching it now [TS]

00:05:50   years after watching it so many times is [TS]

00:05:52   that a lot of the lot of the settings [TS]

00:05:55   and scenes are more ambitious than then [TS]

00:05:59   toy story but they didn't quite have the [TS]

00:06:02   sophistication that or maybe it was just [TS]

00:06:03   the art direction to sort of give each [TS]

00:06:06   one of those locations a distinctive [TS]

00:06:09   look [TS]

00:06:10   so it's kind of like this is the kind of [TS]

00:06:12   sameness to all the locations i mean [TS]

00:06:14   obviously the things in the house looks [TS]

00:06:15   like the first movie is the first we [TS]

00:06:17   spend a lot of time in the house in the [TS]

00:06:18   yard and when they got on the street or [TS]

00:06:20   in buildings or even in the airport on [TS]

00:06:23   the runaways [TS]

00:06:24   I don't know if it's the lighting or the [TS]

00:06:26   the selection of textures or whatever [TS]

00:06:28   it's kind of its kind of blog where I [TS]

00:06:31   think if you if you just close your eyes [TS]

00:06:32   and and someone says toy story 3 you can [TS]

00:06:34   like picture the orange of the [TS]

00:06:35   incinerator or like the darkness of the [TS]

00:06:38   the toy that toys at the nursery and [TS]

00:06:40   stuff like that like I feel like that [TS]

00:06:42   visually this movie is a little bit flat [TS]

00:06:45   as the limitation of technology at the [TS]

00:06:46   time but I think it's also that they [TS]

00:06:49   didn't think they were quite up to being [TS]

00:06:51   able to pull off so many different [TS]

00:06:53   settings and in a single movie I don't [TS]

00:06:56   know there's I maybe with this instant [TS]

00:06:59   elimination still at this point is [TS]

00:07:00   things like surfaces so they're very [TS]

00:07:02   circumspect about what they choose to [TS]

00:07:04   you know do image map and kind of things [TS]

00:07:06   on you know where it's gonna have a [TS]

00:07:08   texture so it ends up looking a little [TS]

00:07:09   shiny it's good to me it's a quantum [TS]

00:07:11   leap in terms of appearance / toy story [TS]

00:07:13   one toy story one is the only one of the [TS]

00:07:15   pixar movie I'm i love them all but when [TS]

00:07:17   do you go back a wow you know I gotta [TS]

00:07:19   remember that's 1995 whereas with this [TS]

00:07:21   one I still really feel like I do I feel [TS]

00:07:24   like there's so much more with the [TS]

00:07:25   expressions were like when somebody [TS]

00:07:27   saying something their face has so much [TS]

00:07:29   subtlety to it but also i mean this is [TS]

00:07:32   one of the ones [TS]

00:07:33   this was a really big Pixar movie in our [TS]

00:07:36   house around 2009-2010 we were watching [TS]

00:07:39   this a lot and I do remember all the [TS]

00:07:41   scenes but you know what I forget is [TS]

00:07:43   just what up what a wonderful salad of [TS]

00:07:46   visual gags very funny dialogue and [TS]

00:07:52   eight just a terrific pixar touches like [TS]

00:07:55   a like a funny pun or a bit that just [TS]

00:07:58   goes by so quickly and that's the things [TS]

00:08:00   like I don't worry i'm noticing stuff [TS]

00:08:01   like the textures in the chairs and no [TS]

00:08:03   you noticing the vertical blinds but i [TS]

00:08:05   want one thing that really sticks with [TS]

00:08:06   me though is the pacing it's so well I [TS]

00:08:08   feel like it's so quickly paced and [TS]

00:08:11   there's also this nice feeling you ever [TS]

00:08:12   noticed like whenever a big part of the [TS]

00:08:14   Act ends bo-peep says something and it [TS]

00:08:17   fades to black and there's all kinds of [TS]

00:08:18   you know fun wipes fun dissolves and you [TS]

00:08:21   know just just before this of course I [TS]

00:08:23   went to wikipedia to make sure i didn't [TS]

00:08:25   miss anything [TS]

00:08:25   I had no idea that such a troubled [TS]

00:08:26   production because it feels so [TS]

00:08:28   effortless to watch and has it is so [TS]

00:08:31   propulsive and telling its story it hits [TS]

00:08:33   emotionally it's funny there's action [TS]

00:08:35   and there's just unexpected sight stuff [TS]

00:08:37   it's I think the triumph [TS]

00:08:39   yeah I was surprised to find out about [TS]

00:08:41   the [TS]

00:08:41   troubled production of the most of the [TS]

00:08:43   compressed schedule part of its right [TS]

00:08:45   although it made a lot more sense when I [TS]

00:08:48   got to the part where where the cleaner [TS]

00:08:50   says you can't rush art and I could just [TS]

00:08:53   picture them writing that collection at [TS]

00:08:55   ya anything i noticed i do one thing I [TS]

00:08:59   do notice is that I don't have any i [TS]

00:09:02   gotta help dr. waves and listen to this [TS]

00:09:04   I I there's the there's some parts that [TS]

00:09:06   look so one thing I noticed this when [TS]

00:09:09   you're always like in every Pixar movie [TS]

00:09:10   they're showing off something new that [TS]

00:09:12   they've gotten right yeah right like it [TS]

00:09:14   could be could be hair could be water it [TS]

00:09:16   could be various kinds of motion [TS]

00:09:17   whatever it is like in this case I think [TS]

00:09:20   the lighting this and bugs life both the [TS]

00:09:22   lighting lighting is so great in this [TS]

00:09:25   and I'm trying to get my daughter you [TS]

00:09:27   know like let's see when they're running [TS]

00:09:28   around at night and he runs up to the [TS]

00:09:30   mailbox things like two blocks down like [TS]

00:09:31   a more to go like that really looks like [TS]

00:09:33   night and then it really looks like [TS]

00:09:35   they're walking through a light and I i [TS]

00:09:38   don't i did not feel any sense of the [TS]

00:09:41   but here's what i will say some scenes [TS]

00:09:43   do look a little more [TS]

00:09:45   mm like they didn't get the full [TS]

00:09:46   resources to like make this perfect and [TS]

00:09:49   that's that's the only thing i would say [TS]

00:09:51   i noticed terms of qualities it's there [TS]

00:09:52   was some Delta with some scenes feel it [TS]

00:09:55   feeling like really exquisitely rendered [TS]

00:09:57   and others feeling a little bit like you [TS]

00:09:59   no-good like above average [TS]

00:10:00   there's a scene where they're going down [TS]

00:10:01   the sidewalk and they're under the trees [TS]

00:10:03   and their shafts of light coming through [TS]

00:10:05   the trees and so as they walk the light [TS]

00:10:07   you know you're there in the shadow of [TS]

00:10:09   the leaves and then there's direct [TS]

00:10:10   sunlight and and it's all kind of as [TS]

00:10:12   they're walking down the streets [TS]

00:10:13   perfectly natural and I thought to [TS]

00:10:14   myself well that's a bug's life right [TS]

00:10:16   there they learned how to do all the [TS]

00:10:18   stuff with like going through leaves and [TS]

00:10:20   so they know how to do that and so they [TS]

00:10:22   do it here and it's very impressive [TS]

00:10:24   because they that could have been evenly [TS]

00:10:26   lit scene and instead it's it's not [TS]

00:10:29   evenly lit at all and some other scenes [TS]

00:10:31   are much more simpler simple but that [TS]

00:10:33   one that would impress me and I thought [TS]

00:10:34   that's that's an example where they [TS]

00:10:36   built up that toolkit with a bug's life [TS]

00:10:38   away and then they deployed in the next [TS]

00:10:39   movie which is trying to reach exceeded [TS]

00:10:41   their grasp a little bit here like is [TS]

00:10:43   they they hid they hid the human so much [TS]

00:10:45   in the first movie Toy Story one like [TS]

00:10:48   they really just tried to concentrate on [TS]

00:10:49   the shiny plastic toys because that's [TS]

00:10:50   what they could do right and this one [TS]

00:10:51   you have more humans and you have [TS]

00:10:54   the dog and both the humans and the dog [TS]

00:10:57   I mean said didn't look great in the [TS]

00:10:59   first movie and humans the dog still [TS]

00:11:00   don't look great here and they putting [TS]

00:11:02   anybody's mom and his mom is a grotesque [TS]

00:11:04   she's like a man and his mom both look [TS]

00:11:06   terrible but i think i'll actually works [TS]

00:11:08   pretty well because he seems to be kind [TS]

00:11:10   of grotesque and Morcar area of yours [TS]

00:11:12   which they already had the resources for [TS]

00:11:14   that from the from the short right there [TS]

00:11:16   was a meticulous terrible [TS]

00:11:18   yeah i mean like the animated here's the [TS]

00:11:20   thing the animation and this is great [TS]

00:11:21   like if you watch like the whoever [TS]

00:11:23   animate the dog did an excellent job but [TS]

00:11:25   the surface details of the dog are just [TS]

00:11:27   are there not there they don't they [TS]

00:11:29   don't have it yet [TS]

00:11:30   I'm and he wasn't being lit lit from [TS]

00:11:32   some different sources is the first [TS]

00:11:34   doesn't look right yeah I like I mean [TS]

00:11:36   everything to me like I have a lot of [TS]

00:11:38   the seems like it's a big such a leap [TS]

00:11:40   over toy story one it's almost as if [TS]

00:11:42   like everything is higher res it's not [TS]

00:11:43   really don't know if it's really the [TS]

00:11:44   case but anyway [TS]

00:11:45   everything looks like softer edge and [TS]

00:11:48   not as hard and shiny all the time in a [TS]

00:11:49   little bit better with satin finishes [TS]

00:11:51   but i just think that art direction wise [TS]

00:11:53   i feel like there's a limited number of [TS]

00:11:56   if this is a comic book and you flip [TS]

00:11:58   through it there would be kind of a [TS]

00:11:59   similar thing going on it would you know [TS]

00:12:02   the color scheme ever the call but like [TS]

00:12:04   if I did this summer for the incredible [TS]

00:12:06   to show like this is the scene where [TS]

00:12:07   everything is red because there's a lot [TS]

00:12:08   of places the blue seen sort of color [TS]

00:12:11   escapes of the entire movie [TS]

00:12:12   this movie's color escapes seem a little [TS]

00:12:15   bit too even and they you know they do [TS]

00:12:18   so many different locations but so many [TS]

00:12:20   of those cases locations are similar and [TS]

00:12:22   even like the sidewalk the sidewalks [TS]

00:12:24   just like uniform cement and they have [TS]

00:12:27   uniform black asphalt for the street [TS]

00:12:28   like modern-day pixar would never make [TS]

00:12:30   streets like this where they're just [TS]

00:12:31   kind of like black asphalt the hallway [TS]

00:12:33   they just paid that usually totally just [TS]

00:12:35   pays it but yeah with seven layers of [TS]

00:12:37   concrete they were tripping over each [TS]

00:12:38   other and just look at the streets when [TS]

00:12:40   they're going up the streets of San [TS]

00:12:41   Francisco and inside out i mean you [TS]

00:12:42   can't blame it was a long time ago but [TS]

00:12:44   that's one of the things i was struck by [TS]

00:12:46   seeing and now is I didn't know these [TS]

00:12:48   things occur to me i'm gonna watch it i [TS]

00:12:49   was just marveling at how much [TS]

00:12:50   better-looking toy story one but now [TS]

00:12:51   that we've seen where they've gone from [TS]

00:12:53   here especially toy story 3 which is the [TS]

00:12:55   same characters was just such a higher [TS]

00:12:57   degree of difficulty so I i noticed that [TS]

00:12:59   but on the flip side were talking about [TS]

00:13:01   the how tight the movie is I noticed [TS]

00:13:04   that like this is like [TS]

00:13:06   and a a prime era Simpsons episode where [TS]

00:13:10   the density of good clean jokes is just [TS]

00:13:13   so massive there are there are so few [TS]

00:13:15   deadlines and every one of them is like [TS]

00:13:17   someone clever than me wrote that all [TS]

00:13:19   their collaborators still claro damn [TS]

00:13:21   their members just one after the other [TS]

00:13:23   at the end I like we're all set visual [TS]

00:13:25   gags puns about plain old jokes they go [TS]

00:13:28   back to the same well three times just [TS]

00:13:30   to show you we we didn't arrow down to [TS]

00:13:32   one joke [TS]

00:13:33   three of them are good enough that we [TS]

00:13:34   can put them all in the same movie which [TS]

00:13:35   is basically the same token you laugh at [TS]

00:13:37   all three because that's how good we are [TS]

00:13:38   really great riding on this also will [TS]

00:13:41   we'll get to it when we go through it [TS]

00:13:42   but some slight pop culture references [TS]

00:13:46   which you know I always argue what [TS]

00:13:48   separates pics are from your DreamWorks [TS]

00:13:50   Animation a lot of the time is that [TS]

00:13:52   dreamworks sort of shamelessly pandering [TS]

00:13:53   to the pop culture of the time [TS]

00:13:55   references it's more like a Saturday [TS]

00:13:57   Night Live sketch reference the ones [TS]

00:13:58   here feel a little more timeless but [TS]

00:14:00   also quoting you know quoting films and [TS]

00:14:03   quoting shots from from films and things [TS]

00:14:05   like that are maybe a little bit like [TS]

00:14:07   sleek loading Forrest Gump I mean come [TS]

00:14:09   on that's pretty great right Forrest [TS]

00:14:12   Gump actually felt kick felt kind of [TS]

00:14:14   dated but they they can reference stars [TS]

00:14:16   all they want bigger stars of course is [TS]

00:14:17   timeless forrest gump felt a little bit [TS]

00:14:20   you know a little bit contemporary but [TS]

00:14:22   they don't share us this year a star and [TS]

00:14:24   that's funny now [TS]

00:14:25   yeah that's true although its tone down [TS]

00:14:27   i would say a little from the first one [TS]

00:14:28   where they actually make a hockey puck [TS]

00:14:30   joke which literally pushing it a little [TS]

00:14:33   bit [TS]

00:14:34   the guy alright let's get started with [TS]

00:14:36   the beginning so I a little bit of [TS]

00:14:38   trivia which is this film came out about [TS]

00:14:39   them almost exactly to the day a month [TS]

00:14:42   before galaxy quest in which tim allen [TS]

00:14:46   place a very similar character to the [TS]

00:14:47   one on display here at the beginning as [TS]

00:14:50   but buzz lightyear in his adventure [TS]

00:14:52   they also the the opening credits sort [TS]

00:14:54   of remind me of yet it's a combination [TS]

00:14:56   of like Superman and and and and some of [TS]

00:14:59   the latter Star Trek movies of the of [TS]

00:15:01   the period and and Galaxy Quest [TS]

00:15:03   ultimately which wasn't out yet and [TS]

00:15:05   there is definitely a mix of especially [TS]

00:15:07   Star Trek and Star Wars the music at the [TS]

00:15:09   very beginning is such a riff on star [TS]

00:15:12   trek to it is undeniably a riff on the [TS]

00:15:14   on the theme from Star Trek to and then [TS]

00:15:17   there's also a bunch of Star Wars stuff [TS]

00:15:18   in there especially as there [TS]

00:15:20   hanging around and you know with that [TS]

00:15:21   with the star fields in the background [TS]

00:15:23   that it's in the Gamma Quadrant which [TS]

00:15:26   has a nice star trek feel to it as well [TS]

00:15:28   there's just at you know and and it's a [TS]

00:15:31   surprise right for all of us we were [TS]

00:15:33   used to be seeing diluted buzz lightyear [TS]

00:15:36   in the first movie in here we see buzz [TS]

00:15:37   in his environment because uh he we're [TS]

00:15:40   watching an outer space adventure of of [TS]

00:15:42   buzz lightyear hoo-hoos laser by the way [TS]

00:15:44   is the sound of a TIE fighter firing [TS]

00:15:47   because the same found some effects [TS]

00:15:49   editor worked on both of Star Wars and [TS]

00:15:52   toy story right he's an awfully Vader [TS]

00:15:54   ithaca when he's got his helmet down in [TS]

00:15:55   this seemed to had elevated breathing [TS]

00:15:57   yeah and that the best thing about this [TS]

00:15:59   opening and this is true of any time you [TS]

00:16:00   see to this type of thing and Pixar [TS]

00:16:02   movie or any other kind of movie it [TS]

00:16:04   works best when you can tell that the [TS]

00:16:05   people who did this opening love the [TS]

00:16:08   source material is people who made these [TS]

00:16:09   are not making fun of Star Trek or Star [TS]

00:16:11   Wars they love Star Trek and Star Wars [TS]

00:16:12   and it and when they're gonna do the [TS]

00:16:13   flying shiny letters coming at you in 3d [TS]

00:16:16   they're going to make them like they [TS]

00:16:18   were they would do no no worse a job if [TS]

00:16:20   they had been actually on a Star Wars or [TS]

00:16:22   Star Trek movie like they're going to do [TS]

00:16:24   that good a job they're not gonna like [TS]

00:16:25   we can get it and just do enough for you [TS]

00:16:27   to get the joke [TS]

00:16:28   they're gonna say if you hired me to do [TS]

00:16:30   to do the opening for Superman r star [TS]

00:16:33   wars star trek I'm gonna do exactly as [TS]

00:16:35   good a job like dead serious because [TS]

00:16:36   that's how you tell the joke and that's [TS]

00:16:37   that's why it's delightful as opposed to [TS]

00:16:39   oh I see what you're doing and trying [TS]

00:16:41   like pretended star wars but it's [TS]

00:16:42   clearly not at the level of the level of [TS]

00:16:45   dedication and then the how clear it is [TS]

00:16:48   that everyone making this loves the [TS]

00:16:49   original materials really sells these [TS]

00:16:51   gags I don't know so this film also came [TS]

00:16:54   out a few months after star wars episode [TS]

00:16:57   one and I mentioned not only because [TS]

00:17:00   there's a there's that shot where buzz [TS]

00:17:02   redirects the laser through the crystal [TS]

00:17:06   and it blows up all the robots [TS]

00:17:08   simultaneously and I thought that's a [TS]

00:17:10   very episode one thing to have happen [TS]

00:17:12   where it's the easily killed robots I [TS]

00:17:15   realize that you know that they had were [TS]

00:17:17   basically being made simultaneously but [TS]

00:17:19   that baby laugh because it felt like it [TS]

00:17:21   and I looked up I was like oh yeah 1999 [TS]

00:17:23   look at that accepting this it was a [TS]

00:17:25   joke it was actually it was actually a [TS]

00:17:27   video game [TS]

00:17:28   yeah it turns out also we get to see [TS]

00:17:31   that when Buzz running down a dark [TS]

00:17:32   corridor we get to see his [TS]

00:17:33   glow-in-the-dark strips another if [TS]

00:17:35   anybody ever had a glow-in-the-dark [TS]

00:17:36   character as a kid that had to explain [TS]

00:17:39   that to my kids that explain many gags [TS]

00:17:41   me to my kids which made me feel old but [TS]

00:17:43   you see when I was a kid we had toys [TS]

00:17:45   that were going the dark exposed to [TS]

00:17:46   light and then it but they were not [TS]

00:17:48   impressed [TS]

00:17:48   although we could see some of that in [TS]

00:17:49   Syd's room in the first movie so it's [TS]

00:17:51   good to see it again because I really [TS]

00:17:52   liked in the first movie I just admit [TS]

00:17:54   it's a laugh-out-loud little moment of [TS]

00:17:56   buzz putting his glow-in-the-dark stuff [TS]

00:17:58   to work he jumps across ok so the [TS]

00:18:01   there's something else I want to mention [TS]

00:18:03   that'sthat's very old school is I used [TS]

00:18:06   to play on on ps1 i played crash [TS]

00:18:09   bandicoot which was a fun platformer and [TS]

00:18:12   the end and it reminds me so much [TS]

00:18:16   uh this the scene of of that game in [TS]

00:18:19   particular but platformers in general as [TS]

00:18:22   buzz and we don't know yet that it's a [TS]

00:18:24   video game but buzz got the little [TS]

00:18:26   things he has to jump on heasley is [TS]

00:18:28   doing a platformer here in this in the [TS]

00:18:31   cinematic style but it's a platformer [TS]

00:18:33   and there's even in crash bandicoot [TS]

00:18:35   there's even a you know a 3d style [TS]

00:18:38   rendered floating battery that you have [TS]

00:18:40   to get to so is very they really brought [TS]

00:18:43   back memories of playing video games in [TS]

00:18:44   the nineties although in this i think [TS]

00:18:45   the fact that it's a battery is a little [TS]

00:18:47   weird because why would the video game [TS]

00:18:49   treat the characters as if they were [TS]

00:18:51   told is that what you call in Game [TS]

00:18:52   advertisement because the brand name of [TS]

00:18:54   the battery so that's what you're paid [TS]

00:18:55   for the game started and in that and the [TS]

00:18:57   2001 reusable discs to jump on [TS]

00:18:59   yeah yeah and also the 2001 music [TS]

00:19:01   there's something I just picked up this [TS]

00:19:02   time which is my ninth or tenth viewing [TS]

00:19:04   this movie 2001 music will get that guy [TS]

00:19:06   he jumps on the little squares it does [TS]

00:19:08   each note of that whatever that also [TS]

00:19:10   sprach Zarathustra yeah 0 temperature [TS]

00:19:12   stress [TS]

00:19:13   yeah what I noticed this time is when he [TS]

00:19:15   enters this room it's like a mechanical [TS]

00:19:17   room is kind of like mechanical [TS]

00:19:18   background noise it was like turning a [TS]

00:19:20   no fans or something or whatever kind of [TS]

00:19:22   pulsing metallic mechanical noise that [TS]

00:19:27   noise slows down to become the same as [TS]

00:19:30   the lead in drums to the to the first [TS]

00:19:33   few notes of him standing on so like if [TS]

00:19:35   you if you play the original like of [TS]

00:19:37   course the notes lineup because they're [TS]

00:19:38   doing the note that's the gag but before [TS]

00:19:40   that [TS]

00:19:40   the ambien Rudin room noise pulses in [TS]

00:19:43   rhythm to the like the big bass drums [TS]

00:19:46   that bank before that and I someone [TS]

00:19:48   sweat it over that because that is [TS]

00:19:50   clever and it's subtle enough that I'd [TS]

00:19:52   seen the movie ten times didn't even [TS]

00:19:53   notice it but when you do notice you [TS]

00:19:55   like now that's attention to do you know [TS]

00:19:56   and and it's better than just like [TS]

00:19:58   putting in the drums you know like just [TS]

00:20:00   I'm just gonna start the song and put in [TS]

00:20:01   the drums because it it you know you [TS]

00:20:03   know most people don't get the gag as I [TS]

00:20:04   certainly did the first times until they [TS]

00:20:06   hit the first note right but there they [TS]

00:20:08   actually did the details of that tried [TS]

00:20:09   watching that scene again just [TS]

00:20:10   appreciate how much these crazy people [TS]

00:20:13   spent on every single nuance of this [TS]

00:20:15   movie [TS]

00:22:27   that this is a video game it's being [TS]

00:22:28   being played by rex is revealed with the [TS]

00:22:30   rather brutal site of buzz lightyears [TS]

00:22:33   whole torso being that one part yeah [TS]

00:22:35   that was that was a were talking my [TS]

00:22:37   daughter we watch it tonight us [TS]

00:22:38   reminding my daughter that when she was [TS]

00:22:40   however old 312 watch that whenever it [TS]

00:22:43   soon as she started hearing the music [TS]

00:22:45   John just referred to eat then they do [TS]

00:22:47   that that little like that all they turn [TS]

00:22:51   the camera and you see buzz about to [TS]

00:22:53   walk across little lozenges and should i [TS]

00:22:55   say fest over daddy passed over [TS]

00:22:57   we've got to get past this part and then [TS]

00:22:59   when when he went buzz turns into legs a [TS]

00:23:01   little turd growing out of his pelvis [TS]

00:23:03   that's our two and violence [TS]

00:23:04   yeah but it's kind of horrifying I mean [TS]

00:23:07   these resources that i love it and we [TS]

00:23:09   don't know just because this is because [TS]

00:23:10   you didn't like they appeared as a kid [TS]

00:23:11   you like wow I love that buzz lightyear [TS]

00:23:13   and he's having an adventure huh [TS]

00:23:15   you see a lot of kids in the theaters do [TS]

00:23:17   bursting into tears at that point I mean [TS]

00:23:19   so they say view within like [TS]

00:23:22   milliseconds then you cut away to wreck [TS]

00:23:24   that's enough for a kid to freak out [TS]

00:23:25   though that kid's gonna be thinking [TS]

00:23:27   about that for the next 15 minutes [TS]

00:23:29   I couldn't remember and so that I think [TS]

00:23:31   this is only the second time i've [TS]

00:23:32   watched it and I couldn't remember what [TS]

00:23:34   the setup was just like his [TS]

00:23:36   is this andy watching the show or what [TS]

00:23:40   and then that that thing happened and I [TS]

00:23:41   was like holy crap and then it kind of [TS]

00:23:44   wave but a bit you know even i had this [TS]

00:23:47   moment of like Omega what is happening [TS]

00:23:49   to buzz and in they do it really well [TS]

00:23:52   but they do that cut away pretty quickly [TS]

00:23:55   too so I'm wondering about test [TS]

00:23:57   audiences it does seem like they're [TS]

00:23:59   lingering on the turd for a long time [TS]

00:24:02   because it is so shocking [TS]

00:24:03   well that's exactly what beyond a long [TS]

00:24:05   enough to get the gag like yeah is it [TS]

00:24:07   steaming I believe it to steam this [TS]

00:24:10   magic smoke coming out of it and [TS]

00:24:11   everything yeah yeah that's what you [TS]

00:24:13   don't want that with more star wars [TS]

00:24:14   sounds like when he waves his hand [TS]

00:24:16   through the battery hologram it's a [TS]

00:24:18   lightsaber sound like I wonder if they [TS]

00:24:19   they have to get a license from [TS]

00:24:21   Skywalker Sound like that they're not [TS]

00:24:22   just simulating so where did do the [TS]

00:24:25   sound for this but yeah I know what you [TS]

00:24:26   mean [TS]

00:24:27   hey video game nerds dat nes controller [TS]

00:24:29   is supposed to be an SNES controller [TS]

00:24:31   that actually is an SNES on top of the [TS]

00:24:33   television later like an accurately [TS]

00:24:34   rendered one but that controller is like [TS]

00:24:36   a color scheme with mismatched weirdness [TS]

00:24:39   nes controller and also like he was [TS]

00:24:42   going Rex makes one of his many short [TS]

00:24:44   arm jokes that he can't you know [TS]

00:24:46   shooting and jump at the same time he [TS]

00:24:49   implies that in this game jumping is up [TS]

00:24:51   on the d-pad and that's a terrible [TS]

00:24:52   control scheme and also not very [TS]

00:24:53   realistic this is the first of the short [TS]

00:24:56   arm jokes by the way he did completely [TS]

00:24:57   avoided it in the first movie i know [TS]

00:24:59   they're don't work like they were [TS]

00:25:01   kicking themselves well you know that's [TS]

00:25:03   an old chestnut classic mhm never get [TS]

00:25:06   tired of that short dinosaur I'm Joe [TS]

00:25:07   well they find new ways to do it like [TS]

00:25:10   this is that the most straightforward [TS]

00:25:11   one like you said it comes right out and [TS]

00:25:13   says he has to set up the rest of the [TS]

00:25:14   jokes that are going to be in the rest [TS]

00:25:16   of the script that comes out and says I [TS]

00:25:17   can't my arms are too short to do [TS]

00:25:18   whatever now you get in the next jokes [TS]

00:25:21   you can do twist on it we don't have to [TS]

00:25:22   remind them what is your referring to [TS]

00:25:24   alright so the next segment the movie is [TS]

00:25:26   we have we have cowboy camp and he's [TS]

00:25:30   going to cowboy camp but he gets to play [TS]

00:25:32   a little bit more [TS]

00:25:33   there's a TV ad for Al's Toy Barn so we [TS]

00:25:35   set up the fact that al is going to be [TS]

00:25:37   the Nemesis here also mrs. Potato Head [TS]

00:25:40   just ask and chicken man yeah and mrs. [TS]

00:25:42   Potato is talking my boy all the cast of [TS]

00:25:44   seinfeld all the big players inside [TS]

00:25:46   filter in this movie and butBut and he's [TS]

00:25:50   got a little bit of time to play so he [TS]

00:25:51   plays uh a little make-believe game [TS]

00:25:54   where evil dr. porkchop is going to [TS]

00:25:56   threaten woody with either shark or [TS]

00:25:59   death by monkeys but there's an accident [TS]

00:26:02   and what his arm gets torn i love this [TS]

00:26:04   scene here where would he has to choose [TS]

00:26:06   whether bo-peep should face death by [TS]

00:26:07   monkeys and the monkeys are seen [TS]

00:26:10   lounging about on various mr. potato [TS]

00:26:12   head pieces and the implication is that [TS]

00:26:14   they have somehow horribly dismember [TS]

00:26:16   for him using size corpses furniture [TS]

00:26:18   that's not a choice that kids set up [TS]

00:26:22   those toys pretty fast like all the [TS]

00:26:24   combat soldiers were in ranks you know [TS]

00:26:26   mom says five minutes and that kid that [TS]

00:26:28   kid knows he's got it down to an art [TS]

00:26:30   like this is what i'm going to do [TS]

00:26:32   doesn't even think about it just set up [TS]

00:26:34   those five minutes doesn't really mean [TS]

00:26:35   five minutes yeah its prior to the [TS]

00:26:37   that's not a choice thing I thought was [TS]

00:26:39   funny and clever in that like I don't [TS]

00:26:42   know when this started probably sometime [TS]

00:26:43   before my kids were born but telling [TS]

00:26:46   your kids that's not a choice as a way [TS]

00:26:48   to communicate to them that that you [TS]

00:26:50   know you can do it or be and they always [TS]

00:26:51   say see like I never heard that when i [TS]

00:26:53   was a kid but nowadays that's the thing [TS]

00:26:55   that parents say all the time and in my [TS]

00:26:57   circles you tell your kids that's not a [TS]

00:26:58   choice right so this is a kid in a movie [TS]

00:27:01   saying that as part of his game [TS]

00:27:02   presumably because it's something that [TS]

00:27:04   his parents say to him I did love Shark [TS]

00:27:06   her death by monkeys but after what he [TS]

00:27:08   gets his arm ripped he gets very quickly [TS]

00:27:10   by mannequin mom he gets placed on the [TS]

00:27:13   top shelf where its all dusty and [TS]

00:27:15   there's those rings that babies play [TS]

00:27:17   with a magic eight ball and he's been [TS]

00:27:19   shelved which is the worst thing that [TS]

00:27:20   can happen to a toy and he discovers [TS]

00:27:22   weezy the penguin hiding between a [TS]

00:27:23   couple of books up there as well i have [TS]

00:27:25   to point out here to just briefly what [TS]

00:27:28   kind of a crappy mom doesn't immediately [TS]

00:27:30   bust out with a needle and thread at [TS]

00:27:32   this point and so up against place is [TS]

00:27:34   gonna go back and have time to fix the [TS]

00:27:36   toy [TS]

00:27:37   well you can take it and sew it up [TS]

00:27:38   before she lets him go I think yeah [TS]

00:27:41   any self-respecting mom would make that [TS]

00:27:43   would make that move she doesn't [TS]

00:27:44   immediately say let's shelve the thing [TS]

00:27:47   and and you can be disappointed for the [TS]

00:27:49   entire time your camp [TS]

00:27:50   yeah I'm not a seamstress and I was like [TS]

00:27:52   I could at least do a serviceable job on [TS]

00:27:54   that in like three minutes [TS]

00:27:55   she's also pretty indiscriminate about [TS]

00:27:57   selling all his crap while he's away at [TS]

00:27:58   camp [TS]

00:27:59   she doesn't sell woody issues the sound [TS]

00:28:01   stuff that doesn't like the baby toys [TS]

00:28:02   you know she's been discriminated enough [TS]

00:28:04   that she doesn't remember the sheet that [TS]

00:28:06   would ease up on a shelf [TS]

00:28:07   yeah also she's trying to so easy to [TS]

00:28:08   penguin who is broken who wants a broken [TS]

00:28:10   toy she took him away up there knowing [TS]

00:28:12   that she was gonna sell him when yes [TS]

00:28:14   probably again probably so that seems [TS]

00:28:17   that's another really a great thing I [TS]

00:28:18   remember seeing the first time and [TS]

00:28:20   enjoying it again when she takes weezy [TS]

00:28:23   off of the Shelf right so this is always [TS]

00:28:25   play with a dance roots the expression [TS]

00:28:27   on his face and the fact that you know [TS]

00:28:29   so the whole thing is like the toys [TS]

00:28:30   aren't supposed to do that when people [TS]

00:28:31   around the toys like sort of play dead [TS]

00:28:33   and pretend that they're not alive right [TS]

00:28:34   that's the rules of the universe but [TS]

00:28:36   they they're always pushing up against [TS]

00:28:37   the boundaries like the toys are [TS]

00:28:38   sneaking around people can't see them in [TS]

00:28:40   this one the mom takes weezy off the [TS]

00:28:41   shelf and as she takes him down she [TS]

00:28:43   squeezes them and when she squeezed him [TS]

00:28:45   weezy takes the opportunity to say [TS]

00:28:47   goodbye woody like he's just taking a [TS]

00:28:49   break because that's the little movie is [TS]

00:28:51   coming out of a bit without the squeeze [TS]

00:28:53   no good with the squeeze jeans the [TS]

00:28:55   finality of evil what he has a full [TS]

00:28:58   Manchurian Candidate nightmare at this [TS]

00:28:59   point involving playing cards in a [TS]

00:29:02   garbage can that I i really love for [TS]

00:29:04   house how weird and cinematic they want [TS]

00:29:07   to be here because this is just I mean [TS]

00:29:09   do you need a nightmare seen engine [TS]

00:29:11   needs to be this weird but they did they [TS]

00:29:13   do it because this is what they want to [TS]

00:29:15   do here and and it's the ultimate horror [TS]

00:29:17   of being on a shelf life falls through [TS]

00:29:19   the death card the pixar detail on this [TS]

00:29:21   one is that when the scene starts of [TS]

00:29:23   course you don't know it's a dream [TS]

00:29:24   sequence yet until you know becomes [TS]

00:29:25   obvious was like oh I don't want to play [TS]

00:29:27   with you right before that the toys are [TS]

00:29:29   all playing cards with a deck of cards [TS]

00:29:31   all aces of spades maybe even before you [TS]

00:29:33   realize it's a dream scene it's got that [TS]

00:29:35   messed-up dream logic like that doesn't [TS]

00:29:37   make any sense right [TS]

00:29:38   and then when he falls through the cards [TS]

00:29:39   I don't permit before after they do a [TS]

00:29:41   dolly zoom like a computer dolly zoom in [TS]

00:29:43   the movie was just cinematic trickery [TS]

00:29:46   inside the computer going going above [TS]

00:29:49   and beyond it's also nice detail when [TS]

00:29:51   he's in the trash can and you can see [TS]

00:29:52   this the light shining through the ace [TS]

00:29:54   of spades forming the little ace of [TS]

00:29:56   spades at the base of the trash can [TS]

00:29:58   again showing off their liabilities so [TS]

00:30:00   the yard sale so what happens is their [TS]

00:30:03   body being a hero which is a million [TS]

00:30:06   what he was kind of a jerk for part of [TS]

00:30:07   toy story so here he is doing his proper [TS]

00:30:09   Duty is third of the leader of the toys [TS]

00:30:11   they're going to rescue weezy they're [TS]

00:30:13   gonna get him back so they they have a [TS]

00:30:14   whole sequence where they where they're [TS]

00:30:18   gonna they're gonna steal him back this [TS]

00:30:21   I want to bring this up till softly so [TS]

00:30:23   they talk to the dog they the toys don't [TS]

00:30:25   act white boys around the dog that [TS]

00:30:27   fact that they play what he plays like [TS]

00:30:29   with the dogs and be easy easy smell i [TS]

00:30:32   think this is my job [TS]

00:30:33   yea even now that's right before and at [TS]

00:30:35   one point the dog rolls its eyes it's [TS]

00:30:37   something that what he tells it so what [TS]

00:30:38   this is what I want to say is apparently [TS]

00:30:40   they can talk to animals and the animals [TS]

00:30:41   understand them and the animal can adopt [TS]

00:30:44   like the jaunty walk of a silent movie [TS]

00:30:46   when a program i don't know what casual [TS]

00:30:51   not casual yeah so so but they do have [TS]

00:30:54   the highest and he gets the he gets he [TS]

00:30:56   gets queasy and the come tuck them under [TS]

00:30:58   the collar of the dog in there they're [TS]

00:30:59   headed back and charm joke here [TS]

00:31:02   music I can't watch can someone cover my [TS]

00:31:04   up [TS]

00:31:05   yeah but also i mean like just the [TS]

00:31:07   virtuosity of watching that from afar [TS]

00:31:10   and we're seeing that the POV mostly [TS]

00:31:13   from the characters back up in the room [TS]

00:31:15   you can kind of hear what's going on [TS]

00:31:17   I think the way they pull all that off [TS]

00:31:18   is pretty terrific in the way they're [TS]

00:31:19   staging everything with the skateboard [TS]

00:31:21   and all of that like you're getting all [TS]

00:31:22   of that and you're getting the toys [TS]

00:31:24   narrating the whole thing which in which [TS]

00:31:25   is you know singer singer singer like so [TS]

00:31:27   fun [TS]

00:31:28   well and the handle Woody's broken arm [TS]

00:31:30   very well I mean he's it's consistent [TS]

00:31:33   right he does you know he's hanging on [TS]

00:31:35   with one thing that the broken arm and [TS]

00:31:37   other what ripped arm is dangling [TS]

00:31:39   correctly pretty much throughout that [TS]

00:31:42   entire scene i never noticed anything [TS]

00:31:43   wrong with it just it looks it looks [TS]

00:31:45   right and you can you just kind of [TS]

00:31:47   remember oh yeah that's right he's doing [TS]

00:31:49   this all with how brave he is he's doing [TS]

00:31:51   this all with a ripped arms and give him [TS]

00:31:52   a rodeo look too because he's got that [TS]

00:31:54   you know how like a sometimes you'll see [TS]

00:31:56   in in like rodeos and stuff for those [TS]

00:31:58   who have seen rodeos you hold on with [TS]

00:32:00   one and you're kinda like balancing your [TS]

00:32:02   weight the cowboy is with like laying [TS]

00:32:04   flat on his other arm around and that's [TS]

00:32:05   the look they give to woody here he's [TS]

00:32:06   he's very cowboy like even though we [TS]

00:32:08   know it's because he only has the use of [TS]

00:32:10   his one arm it's a it's a nice effect em [TS]

00:32:13   but so something terrible happens which [TS]

00:32:15   is that Woody is a woody falls and is [TS]

00:32:19   revealed and because he has to be still [TS]

00:32:23   because the rules of the universe and an [TS]

00:32:25   alpha male estoy bien spots and knows [TS]

00:32:27   that he is a gold mine and tries to buy [TS]

00:32:30   him for first trust of i am hiding him [TS]

00:32:33   for fifty cents and then the mom sees [TS]

00:32:37   that that uh [TS]

00:32:38   that is woody and he's not for sale and [TS]

00:32:40   she doesn't know how he got down there [TS]

00:32:41   so he then tries to offer fifty dollars [TS]

00:32:43   and she's absolutely not because she's a [TS]

00:32:44   good mom and she knows how precious [TS]

00:32:46   woody is to andy and then he breaks into [TS]

00:32:49   the box and steals woody and and takes [TS]

00:32:53   off because the chicken man is a very [TS]

00:32:55   bad man he is not a nice man that [TS]

00:32:57   chicken man i hate that chicken is [TS]

00:32:58   identified as the chicken man by the [TS]

00:33:00   toys and he and he takes off and takes [TS]

00:33:02   would be back to his place in his car [TS]

00:33:05   with a license plate from the state of [TS]

00:33:07   tri-county state of tri-county yeah i [TS]

00:33:09   noticed that i noticed that the yellow [TS]

00:33:11   license plate with black letters that is [TS]

00:33:14   this is tri county and the TV station [TS]

00:33:16   says it's the tri-county area so i guess [TS]

00:33:20   they created a joint license plate [TS]

00:33:22   authority [TS]

00:33:23   ok moving moving on this is where would [TS]

00:33:27   he steps into a wider world and [TS]

00:33:29   discovers that he's not just a toy for [TS]

00:33:32   Andy but he's a pop-culture sensation [TS]

00:33:36   and part of a line of toys which i think [TS]

00:33:39   is a really amazing leap that the that [TS]

00:33:41   pixar takes in telling the story about [TS]

00:33:43   woody we're suddenly we discover that [TS]

00:33:45   it's not just woody woody is a Howdy [TS]

00:33:48   Doody like character who had a TV show [TS]

00:33:50   in the fifties with marionettes and that [TS]

00:33:53   he is part of a product line that [TS]

00:33:54   includes Jessie the cowgirl stinky Pete [TS]

00:33:56   the prospector and his own horse [TS]

00:33:58   bullseye many and that there were there [TS]

00:34:01   were a cowboy crunchy cereal which i [TS]

00:34:04   believe is like chocolate covered in its [TS]

00:34:08   it's really not good for you kids don't [TS]

00:34:10   eat don't eat it and Woody's roundup was [TS]

00:34:12   a popular TV show until Sputnik came so [TS]

00:34:14   suddenly woody is a you know he's not [TS]

00:34:18   just some random cowboy he's actually [TS]

00:34:20   he's got value to collectors and things [TS]

00:34:24   that that he never he never realizes he [TS]

00:34:26   was just a boy that was played with [TS]

00:34:27   those bull's-eyes gotta Pluto thing [TS]

00:34:29   going on the Pluto goofy thing goofy [TS]

00:34:31   noises and we're as close and like so it [TS]

00:34:33   is that the toy hierarchies sometimes [TS]

00:34:35   they're just like people they talk like [TS]

00:34:37   Rex just you know it's just like a [TS]

00:34:38   person sometimes don't say too much [TS]

00:34:40   cause I besides the Pluto he's a horse [TS]

00:34:43   never says anything is most like the [TS]

00:34:44   more smart more like a pet it isn't a [TS]

00:34:46   matter of humanity or me and [TS]

00:34:48   animal because muscle guy and no milady [TS]

00:34:51   don't talk either right wrong with a [TS]

00:34:52   grunt but you you know it's hard it's [TS]

00:34:54   hard to tell what [TS]

00:34:55   but where the intelligence but anyway [TS]

00:34:56   it's exactly its i can imagine a horse [TS]

00:34:59   character and toys story that the talk [TS]

00:35:01   to me would be fine but that's not [TS]

00:35:02   bullseye he feels the the kind of lap [TS]

00:35:05   dog roll [TS]

00:35:06   I also wondered why some of the other [TS]

00:35:09   merchandise wasn't sentient because I [TS]

00:35:12   mean it's not like it's just just toys [TS]

00:35:15   with brain looking spaces and because [TS]

00:35:18   you know in the first movie The the [TS]

00:35:20   binocular toy like they use that and it [TS]

00:35:23   seems to have autonomy and and stuff [TS]

00:35:26   whereas all this merge in this apartment [TS]

00:35:28   is just kind of all dead so I'm moving [TS]

00:35:31   what makes like-minded what John was [TS]

00:35:34   saying what gives something what gives a [TS]

00:35:37   toy intelligence vs not what kind of [TS]

00:35:39   intelligence or awareness does it get [TS]

00:35:41   that how much time they have the [TS]

00:35:42   animated budgetary concerns like I [TS]

00:35:45   really have a certain number of animated [TS]

00:35:47   characters with lines in this movie [TS]

00:35:48   because that's what we can afford to [TS]

00:35:49   animate well bullseye makes sense [TS]

00:35:51   because bullseye is with his horse great [TS]

00:35:53   so so bull's-eyes going to be a horse [TS]

00:35:55   character if you were a horse character [TS]

00:35:57   that was you know in a story by itself [TS]

00:35:59   or just a horse character that you [TS]

00:36:01   bought off the shelf and then he [TS]

00:36:03   probably would talk but no he's he's [TS]

00:36:06   woody source the skateboard doesn't [TS]

00:36:07   scratch its nose or something yeah but [TS]

00:36:09   they do they do the juxtaposition a lot [TS]

00:36:11   of the toy has a voice that you would [TS]

00:36:13   expect to have right up to our great [TS]

00:36:15   intro line turn me around bullseye [TS]

00:36:17   so we can seem like you could make a [TS]

00:36:20   stinky Pete would not have the you know [TS]

00:36:22   kelsey grammer boys you don't expect [TS]

00:36:24   that the gag so you could have had [TS]

00:36:25   bullseye have you know a cockney accent [TS]

00:36:28   or something but instead they want with [TS]

00:36:29   the animal and it has to do with whether [TS]

00:36:31   they're going to be writing that toy [TS]

00:36:32   because it's being the first movie the [TS]

00:36:35   remote control cars the the ride that [TS]

00:36:37   around and I think just be awkward to [TS]

00:36:39   have someone talking to you while you're [TS]

00:36:41   riding around the weekend so we get [TS]

00:36:43   suggestions John Cusack and CPAs kelsey [TS]

00:36:45   grammer doing his best Sideshow Bob [TS]

00:36:47   don't trust kelsey grammer when he's [TS]

00:36:49   animated although it does lead to some [TS]

00:36:52   wonderful moments where they show that [TS]

00:36:53   the clips of the Woody's roundup TV show [TS]

00:36:55   and you can see that he's doing what you [TS]

00:36:58   do want [TS]

00:36:59   little prospect voices and and then [TS]

00:37:01   sticky PDF very well I should say no not [TS]

00:37:03   very well ma'am he's a I've heard better [TS]

00:37:05   but he's just he's mortified by it [TS]

00:37:07   because he's way too classy for that I [TS]

00:37:09   love that I want all the things about we [TS]

00:37:11   can you gotta give it up for the [TS]

00:37:12   production that they pulled off with [TS]

00:37:14   showing on this old TV showing this [TS]

00:37:17   black-and-white yeah show and the way [TS]

00:37:19   that they sold like the crappiness of [TS]

00:37:21   the way the show was me he liked his [TS]

00:37:23   conversation with all the little [TS]

00:37:24   creatures on string and folding [TS]

00:37:26   cardboard cardboard creatures yanked off [TS]

00:37:29   screen by string1 get stuck you know [TS]

00:37:31   it's the cleverness of the way all the [TS]

00:37:32   strings work in that in that bit is is [TS]

00:37:35   great that I had to be rendered and in [TS]

00:37:37   designed as well and it's it's so well [TS]

00:37:39   done [TS]

00:37:40   yeah i'll explain that to my kids that [TS]

00:37:41   there was a shows like this like howdy [TS]

00:37:43   doody this is that this is not just made [TS]

00:37:45   up for the movie but this is a real [TS]

00:37:46   thing not not specifically what a [TS]

00:37:48   fine-looking now d duty i just have the [TS]

00:37:51   movie playing in the background I just [TS]

00:37:52   uh just got the scene of and they're [TS]

00:37:54   jumping off the roof and slinky grabs on [TS]

00:37:56   but come on the Warner Brothers [TS]

00:38:00   reference yeah it's interesting that [TS]

00:38:02   when you see them jumping off the roof [TS]

00:38:04   did they sort of casual nature with [TS]

00:38:06   which they all leap off the roof sort of [TS]

00:38:07   diminishes how concerned they were when [TS]

00:38:09   Buzz went out the window in the first [TS]

00:38:11   movie I was an accident there just [TS]

00:38:13   bungee jumping off the side of the roof [TS]

00:38:14   no big deal [TS]

00:38:15   yeah they're they're very this all these [TS]

00:38:17   out now buzz has been a big influence on [TS]

00:38:19   them i think there's a precedent you [TS]

00:38:21   know I noted this point that that I i [TS]

00:38:23   love john cusack's voice in this yeah so [TS]

00:38:26   goofy and and it really shouldn't work [TS]

00:38:28   but somehow it totally does absolutely [TS]

00:38:30   like you know it it's so perfect like [TS]

00:38:33   just you know that's funny bullseye like [TS]

00:38:35   everything she says it's so perfect she [TS]

00:38:37   says she's so spunky and like you know I [TS]

00:38:39   mean like I know we're being jokey on [TS]

00:38:41   here but like there's something really [TS]

00:38:42   kinda really moving about these [TS]

00:38:44   characters that have been in limbo for [TS]

00:38:45   so yeah and I'm already years or so it's [TS]

00:38:48   all right let's get to what makes this [TS]

00:38:49   so I'm moving is that they never thought [TS]

00:38:52   they were going to get to go anywhere [TS]

00:38:53   this guy code shows up they know him he [TS]

00:38:57   doesn't know them yeah who can imagine [TS]

00:38:59   pitching that at first pics are going in [TS]

00:39:01   and saying like well here's the new [TS]

00:39:02   thing like what he's actually this you [TS]

00:39:03   know famous franchise toy and I think [TS]

00:39:06   they they they pulled it off amazingly [TS]

00:39:07   not least because all the stuff that Tom [TS]

00:39:10   Hanks doesn't hurt a little bit of [TS]

00:39:11   shot these just you know the Tom Hanks [TS]

00:39:14   character as woody just being being so [TS]

00:39:16   blown away by all this happening i [TS]

00:39:17   thought that was an incredibly effective [TS]

00:39:19   sequence there's a moment where Joan [TS]

00:39:20   Cusack says I won't go back in the dark [TS]

00:39:24   that is chillin and I think Joan Cusack [TS]

00:39:26   is perfect for this in some ways because [TS]

00:39:28   she can be super sweet Midwestern [TS]

00:39:30   adorable and jesse is that but she can [TS]

00:39:33   also have that edge where she can flip [TS]

00:39:34   right over into now she's now she's [TS]

00:39:37   freaking out now she's on the edge and [TS]

00:39:38   it for Joan Cusack it's perfect because [TS]

00:39:41   she can she can do that exactly [TS]

00:39:43   she's got PTSD basically like she's [TS]

00:39:46   she's you don't mean that over you know [TS]

00:39:48   state but like if you think about it can [TS]

00:39:50   humanize these things or interpret [TS]

00:39:51   mortifies these things like she's had [TS]

00:39:53   like a very long time to ruminate on [TS]

00:39:55   this experience and completely shut out [TS]

00:39:57   from that not being you know out there [TS]

00:39:59   last time she was loved flower power was [TS]

00:40:01   a thing right i mean these are about [TS]

00:40:03   like finding finding meaning in life [TS]

00:40:04   it's clear from toys that the meaning of [TS]

00:40:07   in life is to be played with and what we [TS]

00:40:09   have here is uh mint-in-box character [TS]

00:40:13   who's literally never been played with [TS]

00:40:15   and then we've got Jesse who has had a a [TS]

00:40:21   person to play with her in the past but [TS]

00:40:24   had not for not for years and she's been [TS]

00:40:26   in the box for since the you know [TS]

00:40:28   sixties or seventies and now it's been [TS]

00:40:30   dealt the mid to late nineties so she's [TS]

00:40:32   she's absolutely yeah she's been in the [TS]

00:40:34   dark I don't want to go back in the dark [TS]

00:40:35   it's it's it's horrifying in that way [TS]

00:40:37   and and what are you supposed to be [TS]

00:40:38   their salvation but we would have to [TS]

00:40:40   sacrifice himself and go to the toy [TS]

00:40:42   museum in japan in order to keep them [TS]

00:40:45   from going back in the box and then [TS]

00:40:47   that's the question is is it any better [TS]

00:40:48   being behind glass and then he would be [TS]

00:40:51   leaving Andy behind it's quite it's it's [TS]

00:40:52   almost mean it's a very difficult [TS]

00:40:54   dilemma for woody to find himself in [TS]

00:40:57   unexpectedly here is it better to be [TS]

00:40:59   have loved than and lost then we'll be [TS]

00:41:01   mint in box i think is that where you [TS]

00:41:03   well the thing we have to sell you on is [TS]

00:41:04   why would I and why would I ever leave [TS]

00:41:07   Andy because the first movie was also [TS]

00:41:08   you know anybody together and it's [TS]

00:41:10   important to be with Andi why would he [TS]

00:41:12   ever leave and the the armor is what [TS]

00:41:14   they hang their hat [TS]

00:41:15   and for the most part works because I [TS]

00:41:17   again like everything is silly made-up [TS]

00:41:19   because their toys but all the map onto [TS]

00:41:21   real world things like the audience is [TS]

00:41:23   readily able to map be played with onto [TS]

00:41:27   whatever thing that they desire in life [TS]

00:41:28   and like Woody's big thing is they're [TS]

00:41:30   not he's not gonna want to play with me [TS]

00:41:32   anymore because I'm a broken toy and so [TS]

00:41:34   I can't take that I can't take that kind [TS]

00:41:35   of rejection I can't go back to Andy and [TS]

00:41:37   have him shelves me that will be more [TS]

00:41:39   painful than just not going back to Andy [TS]

00:41:41   and again we don't have arms a trip we [TS]

00:41:43   don't have people that play with us or [TS]

00:41:44   whatever but all those things map so [TS]

00:41:46   easily on things that the drive people [TS]

00:41:48   in real life they don't have to be [TS]

00:41:49   particularly handy they do they can do [TS]

00:41:51   all the motivations in universe and we [TS]

00:41:53   accept them because they're in the [TS]

00:41:54   universe but they map perfectly two [TS]

00:41:56   things that real people want a real life [TS]

00:41:58   when you're not going well for 44 woody [TS]

00:42:00   better to be in a museum whole than to [TS]

00:42:03   be broken and put in the landfill when [TS]

00:42:05   he gets back to Andy I mean I really [TS]

00:42:07   just the rejection the idea that and he [TS]

00:42:09   won't want to play with me anymore [TS]

00:42:10   because I'm a broken toe right [TS]

00:42:12   oh that's right you're broken i play [TS]

00:42:16   with you but like also the tees up thing [TS]

00:42:19   I think we we talked about this last [TS]

00:42:21   time but you know the the to state the [TS]

00:42:24   obvious for folks who you know have kids [TS]

00:42:26   and stuff like the toys that end up [TS]

00:42:28   becoming a strange proxy for Parenthood [TS]

00:42:30   and that that's the part that tears your [TS]

00:42:31   heart out because even though you're [TS]

00:42:33   talking about a child who grows up and [TS]

00:42:34   gradually doesn't need a toy anymore [TS]

00:42:36   the emotional proxy proxy lot always [TS]

00:42:38   this is Parenthood we're saying like no [TS]

00:42:40   I please do not gonna bring your not [TS]

00:42:42   gonna bring me to college you're not [TS]

00:42:44   gonna bring me you know when you're on [TS]

00:42:45   your honeymoon think yeah but like but [TS]

00:42:48   yea right but you know i mean that's [TS]

00:42:50   that's to me that's that's where this [TS]

00:42:51   model i plan on being here for mine just [TS]

00:42:54   peeping through the wall that are where [TS]

00:42:56   everything notes [TS]

00:42:57   good job sweetheart what's under the bed [TS]

00:42:59   the actually a moment and and this is [TS]

00:43:03   skipping ahead but I had a moment as a [TS]

00:43:05   parent when I questioned the what [TS]

00:43:07   happens in Jesse story that will get to [TS]

00:43:10   because I I thought that the jesse is [TS]

00:43:12   just as parents [TS]

00:43:13   I can't believe that it that nobody [TS]

00:43:15   stopped her from giving away her beloved [TS]

00:43:16   cow girl toy like you just you keep that [TS]

00:43:19   keep that in the room something but they [TS]

00:43:21   let her they let her take it and put it [TS]

00:43:23   into giveaway was like no no because I i [TS]

00:43:25   have nostalgia for my children's toys [TS]

00:43:29   now [TS]

00:43:29   there are some of my children's toys [TS]

00:43:30   that if they tried to get rid of them i [TS]

00:43:32   would stop them because I love them [TS]

00:43:35   because they represent their tires did [TS]

00:43:37   not have that nostalgia for my toys I [TS]

00:43:39   think it's not a person-by-person basis [TS]

00:43:41   you know like this but my parents got [TS]

00:43:43   rid of all my stuff when I was [TS]

00:43:44   distracted by puberty and then even more [TS]

00:43:46   of it when I moved out and just forget [TS]

00:43:48   it but I'm doing the same thing with my [TS]

00:43:50   kids like their little lovies from when [TS]

00:43:52   they were little toddlers they want to [TS]

00:43:53   throw them out because I guess they're [TS]

00:43:54   embarrassed by them but they don't care [TS]

00:43:56   you show me you care about this no [TS]

00:43:57   nevermind like we're never know that's [TS]

00:43:59   right now we have boxes of that stuff in [TS]

00:44:02   our crawlspace [TS]

00:44:03   yeah i still have the teddy bear that I [TS]

00:44:06   slept with from the time I was I don't [TS]

00:44:08   know I remember my mom giving it to me [TS]

00:44:09   when I was like three because I was [TS]

00:44:11   afraid of the dark so she got me a teddy [TS]

00:44:12   bear to that would keep everything in [TS]

00:44:15   the dark away from me and like it's [TS]

00:44:17   still in my bedroom and I'm you know [TS]

00:44:19   long out of the house and married and [TS]

00:44:21   it's still pretty close at hand and even [TS]

00:44:24   sometimes when my husband is out of town [TS]

00:44:26   i'll i'll bring it down and sleep with [TS]

00:44:29   simple cake this is still a thing in my [TS]

00:44:31   life that would be the best toy story [TS]

00:44:33   movie ever the adults keep some of the [TS]

00:44:35   toys around and what's their [TS]

00:44:36   relationship like with an adult toys 35 [TS]

00:44:39   I thought my daughter finally made the [TS]

00:44:40   connection tonight I gave her the two [TS]

00:44:42   stuffed animals i kept from each other [TS]

00:44:44   my two favorites which is Alice you know [TS]

00:44:46   teddy bear and this dog that my parents [TS]

00:44:48   got me when I was in the hospital as a [TS]

00:44:50   kid wants to and she made the connection [TS]

00:44:52   she turned around she's like oh like [TS]

00:44:54   Fritz the dog is is your windows again [TS]

00:44:56   kinda is and like she cheat sheets that [TS]

00:44:58   connection but but to what I think dr. [TS]

00:45:01   during was saying but you know the [TS]

00:45:02   things we develop a connection like is [TS]

00:45:04   this really stupid cup this morning you [TS]

00:45:06   like those rubber cups you used to like [TS]

00:45:08   a washer kids hair when they're little [TS]

00:45:10   kid like that's still in our bathtub and [TS]

00:45:12   if my wife ever throw that away i'm [TS]

00:45:13   gonna kill her because I don't know why [TS]

00:45:15   but that's such a touchdown me for this [TS]

00:45:17   for this older time but like it to make [TS]

00:45:19   it straight to this point of like we're [TS]

00:45:20   the ones who look at that time ago like [TS]

00:45:21   how you know how could you how could you [TS]

00:45:23   throw that away [TS]

00:45:24   you know but you know you know what the [TS]

00:45:25   other thing is like I guess again [TS]

00:45:27   repeating but is that you know I think [TS]

00:45:29   when you reach a certain age we are [TS]

00:45:31   wearing saddle shoes and like listening [TS]

00:45:33   to records with your friends you make [TS]

00:45:35   strategic choices so sure about what you [TS]

00:45:38   deliberately part with yeah I'm not sold [TS]

00:45:41   that she would give Jesse away easily [TS]

00:45:43   like I don't know if it's some crazy mom [TS]

00:45:44   thing there but like I know you do reach [TS]

00:45:46   a point in life where you say like I've [TS]

00:45:47   got to make a cut from this I'm gonna [TS]

00:45:48   fill these boxes and get rid of that [TS]

00:45:50   cause that's not who I i cannot be that [TS]

00:45:52   person [TS]

00:45:53   it's just leaving the nest like she's [TS]

00:45:55   pushing it away but she's leaving the [TS]

00:45:56   nest like it's kind of the same thing [TS]

00:45:57   you would probably would keep that [TS]

00:45:59   through high school right but when you [TS]

00:46:00   go off to college maybe it's still back [TS]

00:46:02   at home but when you come back from [TS]

00:46:03   college and finally move out for good [TS]

00:46:05   that's when the Box goes you're saying [TS]

00:46:06   now I'm filing independent person and I [TS]

00:46:09   don't need this stuff anymore maybe [TS]

00:46:10   something you never leave the nest [TS]

00:46:12   that's true that's true she's having [TS]

00:46:14   less and less just have to have the [TS]

00:46:15   honey room honeymoon in the next room [TS]

00:46:17   it's time to talk about Cheetos because [TS]

00:46:19   alpha males toy barn is a grotesque [TS]

00:46:22   figure and I will also say you know [TS]

00:46:25   we're playing its in its own way night [TS]

00:46:27   right so it's it's a it's Newman you men [TS]

00:46:30   and he we find him asleep with a with [TS]

00:46:34   this basically his hand in a bag of [TS]

00:46:35   Cheetos in front of the TV at one point [TS]

00:46:38   and the it's a it's it's it's pretty [TS]

00:46:42   gross [TS]

00:46:42   she does a little bit beyond their [TS]

00:46:43   capabilities to looks more like a orange [TS]

00:46:45   cement didn't quite capture the essence [TS]

00:46:48   actuator dust and at various times he [TS]

00:46:50   picks up would be with his cheeto [TS]

00:46:51   fingers come on i know i know you would [TS]

00:46:53   never do that on no collector would do [TS]

00:46:55   that right but but he doesn't i guess [TS]

00:46:58   that's what kind of a monster out from [TS]

00:47:00   alice lloyd Barnas he's that much of a [TS]

00:47:02   monster [TS]

00:47:32   the cleaning that we have the rescue [TS]

00:47:34   operation that is continuing from the [TS]

00:47:36   other toys there were there are many [TS]

00:47:38   gags when they leave and there's a mr. [TS]

00:47:40   Potato Head load some extra stuff into [TS]

00:47:42   the back of mr. potato head for the road [TS]

00:47:44   and then we get to the point here where [TS]

00:47:46   they were they all they're going on the [TS]

00:47:48   street and and now they've reached up [TS]

00:47:50   the other side of the street from Al's [TS]

00:47:51   Toy Barn so they have to cross the road [TS]

00:47:53   to get to the chicken as they say and [TS]

00:47:55   they do this in an extent [TS]

00:47:56   the sequence where they're inside [TS]

00:47:57   highway cones slowly easing across the [TS]

00:48:00   highway in some sort of a plan that is [TS]

00:48:01   the worst plan ever [TS]

00:48:04   and they cause a horrible things happen [TS]

00:48:06   and i love this scene because it seems [TS]

00:48:08   like buzz has a whole idea of how [TS]

00:48:10   they're just gonna gradually close-up [TS]

00:48:11   got clothes off various lanes and get [TS]

00:48:13   across and that is not what happened and [TS]

00:48:15   they proceeded to logically like to the [TS]

00:48:16   point where they get that little curve [TS]

00:48:18   of cones and the car like has to like [TS]

00:48:20   make a turn and it sort of makes a [TS]

00:48:21   u-turn back into the traffic coming its [TS]

00:48:23   directions like that I guess is what [TS]

00:48:25   would happen [TS]

00:48:26   it's wonderful it's wonderful that's the [TS]

00:48:29   beauty the car to know is it is like [TS]

00:48:30   this cartoon logic and it follows ground [TS]

00:48:32   logic and its lair and it follows the [TS]

00:48:33   logic strictly and you get to see all [TS]

00:48:36   the terrible things that happened that [TS]

00:48:37   are capped with the line well that went [TS]

00:48:39   well [TS]

00:48:39   the end of the light Paul coming down as [TS]

00:48:41   final break is the big concrete things [TS]

00:48:43   comes off the trucks roll into it slowly [TS]

00:48:45   rolls and they had that gratuitous [TS]

00:48:47   moment where mr. Tate gets out of the [TS]

00:48:49   way but the the gum is there and the gum [TS]

00:48:52   sort of like peels off onto the concrete [TS]

00:48:55   pipe as it rolls away and we don't see [TS]

00:48:58   the concrete pipe after that but we see [TS]

00:48:59   the the light the light stand comes [TS]

00:49:01   comes back down into the street this is [TS]

00:49:03   the one seen that isn't in Al's [TS]

00:49:06   apartment or or a song that I remember [TS]

00:49:08   very vividly from this movie because it [TS]

00:49:10   is so well done and you know the the [TS]

00:49:14   sort of inventiveness of the vehicular [TS]

00:49:16   mayhem is all great i love how kind of [TS]

00:49:19   claustrophobic intense the shots inside [TS]

00:49:22   the cones are ya yeah and I also love [TS]

00:49:24   that slinky dog has his head in one code [TS]

00:49:26   here but your orange light in from the [TS]

00:49:30   cones so there's some wedding stuff [TS]

00:49:31   going on there but you can almost feels [TS]

00:49:33   the stifling heat inside those things [TS]

00:49:36   that they all look very concerned it's [TS]

00:49:37   it's great but has a plan that that's [TS]

00:49:39   part of the thing that makes me laugh so [TS]

00:49:40   long as he's like all right ready [TS]

00:49:41   hello drop write like he's got he's got [TS]

00:49:44   all worked out and it's a terrible plan [TS]

00:49:45   and it's not gonna be but maybe it's [TS]

00:49:47   good it's very clever in that if you're [TS]

00:49:49   going to cross the road safely orange [TS]

00:49:50   traffic cones are the way to do it but [TS]

00:49:52   beyond that beyond the basics of these [TS]

00:49:55   these what will protect us from cars [TS]

00:49:57   aren't traffic cones is basically the [TS]

00:49:58   only thing but the arrangements matter [TS]

00:50:01   and that is really didn't really have [TS]

00:50:02   that the drop is less a protect yourself [TS]

00:50:05   from cars as it is don't be spotted [TS]

00:50:07   high-performance ground under traffic on [TS]

00:50:09   she seemed walking yes stuff to follow [TS]

00:50:11   the rules I feel an obligation here to [TS]

00:50:13   point out of an error [TS]

00:50:15   ok in this and it's and it's when the [TS]

00:50:18   concrete sewer pipe goes off of the back [TS]

00:50:21   of the truck how did I know shatter into [TS]

00:50:22   a million pieces [TS]

00:50:23   no no that no that could know it would [TS]

00:50:25   survive the wrong end of the chain [TS]

00:50:27   breaks oh haha yes [TS]

00:50:31   yeah the end of the chain that's on the [TS]

00:50:33   side it rolls off of is the one that [TS]

00:50:35   breaks and cinematically that works [TS]

00:50:38   because II and you have to see it break [TS]

00:50:40   right you have to see it break and you [TS]

00:50:41   see it roll off to off the edge you want [TS]

00:50:44   it and they want to keep the camera in [TS]

00:50:45   the same place while they're doing that [TS]

00:50:47   but it's the other end of the chain [TS]

00:50:49   breaks [TS]

00:50:50   well this movie is ruined I thought you [TS]

00:50:52   were going to tell us something about [TS]

00:50:53   what we what we learned about what [TS]

00:50:54   happened to the the light the light pole [TS]

00:50:57   given the the failure angle of the light [TS]

00:51:00   pole when it lands back in the road but [TS]

00:51:02   i wanted fall why does it fall forward [TS]

00:51:04   instead of the other direction of the [TS]

00:51:05   good at the rolling be stupid [TS]

00:51:07   it follows that way because that's the [TS]

00:51:08   gas yeah i also have 35 minutes on how [TS]

00:51:10   access vents and elevators got some [TS]

00:51:15   questions about the engineering you know [TS]

00:51:16   I could have pointed out that the [TS]

00:51:18   trailer swings through too much of an [TS]

00:51:20   angle to but I accept all right could [TS]

00:51:23   you really open a hatch / landing gear [TS]

00:51:25   without setting off some sort of alarm [TS]

00:51:27   in the cognate this is all pretty 911 [TS]

00:51:29   you know but it was a simpler times were [TS]

00:51:31   different then we'll just abandon this [TS]

00:51:33   dirty looking truck in the white zone [TS]

00:51:34   it's known that ring of the of the [TS]

00:51:37   string to land perfectly on the [TS]

00:51:38   hexagonal bolt really don't want to go [TS]

00:51:41   and shop is gonna do it- tower do this [TS]

00:51:45   yeah lotsa lotsa practice I'm sorry I'm [TS]

00:51:47   sorry didn't mean to be cynical uh ok so [TS]

00:51:49   Jerry's game is now here to clean your [TS]

00:51:51   to clean your choice for you [TS]

00:51:54   oh my god i love was watch the little [TS]

00:51:58   hat rack man come on the little hat rack [TS]

00:52:00   is it really that that that simple to [TS]

00:52:02   that they had the model of the man from [TS]

00:52:04   Jerry's game and so that he they had him [TS]

00:52:07   so they cast him and moving it's not [TS]

00:52:08   that they had the model they like that [TS]

00:52:10   character and so I put in the morning to [TS]

00:52:12   the the wikipedia Lord this was greatly [TS]

00:52:15   reduced in terms of schedule because it [TS]

00:52:17   was originally slated to be a [TS]

00:52:18   direct-to-video awful disney [TS]

00:52:21   to sequel and and at the last minute [TS]

00:52:24   somebody decided hey this is coming [TS]

00:52:26   together really well let's turn it into [TS]

00:52:27   a theatrical release but oh you only [TS]

00:52:30   have nine months and there's a little [TS]

00:52:32   more to it than that but basically they [TS]

00:52:35   did have to reuse a lot of gags from the [TS]

00:52:37   previous film they had to really use a [TS]

00:52:38   lot of resources that they had and they [TS]

00:52:40   had some sequences that already animated [TS]

00:52:41   I got the feeling that was the joke that [TS]

00:52:44   was part of the wonderful joke in the [TS]

00:52:45   bloopers reel was it felt like the stuff [TS]

00:52:48   that she was sticking into the back of [TS]

00:52:49   mr. Potato Head felt like things that [TS]

00:52:51   they had already used and rendered in [TS]

00:52:53   different things that could be always [TS]

00:52:56   does that mean they're they're like it's [TS]

00:52:58   like they were using assets when they [TS]

00:52:59   put the Pizza Planet truck and the ball [TS]

00:53:01   and every movie kind of but mostly it's [TS]

00:53:03   really well you know the the riverbed [TS]

00:53:05   and the riverbed in the opening sequence [TS]

00:53:08   is a Miss render from a bug's life where [TS]

00:53:12   they got the z-axis and keeping any and [TS]

00:53:14   I used it has been a space river or [TS]

00:53:16   whatever it is in in that sequence to so [TS]

00:53:19   there's that they definitely so they use [TS]

00:53:21   the jury's game model but he's got ya [TS]

00:53:22   what a great what a great great he's got [TS]

00:53:24   a hat rack for dolls he's got his whole [TS]

00:53:27   system's a little little bit on him a [TS]

00:53:29   little tear that isn't it up that whole [TS]

00:53:32   toolbox is just night and the way the [TS]

00:53:35   eyes the eyes rolled around exquisitely [TS]

00:53:37   when he opens the drawer I want to have [TS]

00:53:39   this tool box in front of me and like [TS]

00:53:41   meticulously go through it because it's [TS]

00:53:43   just this fascinating little tit little [TS]

00:53:47   doctors kid that he just takes around [TS]

00:54:02   like all the prospective shots in here [TS]

00:54:04   there's a particular one where there [TS]

00:54:05   it's a reverse shot of Jerry working on [TS]

00:54:08   woody and it's just this huge hand with [TS]

00:54:12   this equally huge head behind it and [TS]

00:54:14   he's got his like tongue in the corner [TS]

00:54:15   of his mouth and it's just so such a [TS]

00:54:17   great shot it so well animated very [TS]

00:54:31   like a real toy triste [TS]

00:54:32   or would be very hesitant to put any [TS]

00:54:33   sort of color is a pro you know but like [TS]

00:54:35   you really shouldn't be putting more [TS]

00:54:37   color on where these cheeks to restore [TS]

00:55:02   herky jerky movements as he's selling it [TS]

00:55:05   closed and I mean look at it look from [TS]

00:55:08   from watching it in 1080p it looks like [TS]

00:55:10   every exquisite detail of like the [TS]

00:55:13   threads that are exposed it looks [TS]

00:55:15   perfectly rendered in a shot that's [TS]

00:59:35   slotted big pile of the well stating [TS]

00:59:38   their amazing i like the fact that you [TS]

00:59:42   mentioned in the first in the first toy [TS]

00:59:44   story mattel refused to give the okay [TS]

00:59:46   for them to use mattel toys and in that [TS]

00:59:48   movie and clearly they have had a change [TS]

00:59:50   of heart as of the success of that film [TS]

00:59:52   because not only are called the Mormons [TS]

00:59:53   Barbies but also the first thing she [TS]

00:59:56   mentions on her tour is Hot Wheels Hot [TS]

00:59:59   Wheels [TS]

00:59:59   Wheels [TS]

01:00:00   yeah I imagine that the negotiations [TS]

01:00:01   between Mattel and and pixar were [TS]

01:00:06   spectacular i'm using the word [TS]

01:00:07   spectacular too much but we're very [TS]

01:00:09   detailed in a in what how they portray [TS]

01:00:14   Barbie because bargain comes off as you [TS]

01:00:17   know kind of addicts but but really [TS]

01:00:20   she's got an iron will and she comes off [TS]

01:00:24   well i think in this and that hit that [TS]

01:00:26   that's that has to be mattel's doing [TS]

01:00:29   when the credits sequence though she's [TS]

01:00:30   revealed to be putting on a show it in a [TS]

01:00:33   way that is burdensome but then also [TS]

01:00:36   that her final bid is she cracks back [TS]

01:00:38   into her character which is like well [TS]

01:00:40   she actually is very bubbly but that's [TS]

01:00:42   right even if even if you are very buddy [TS]

01:00:44   it's hard winter tour guide is her job [TS]

01:00:46   tour guide barbie in specific but we [TS]

01:00:48   also see that they're all the other [TS]

01:00:49   Barbie she gets tired out from smiling [TS]

01:00:51   but she doesn't she doesn't break break [TS]

01:00:54   that on anybody right she's not me [TS]

01:00:56   yeah straight we know when she when [TS]

01:00:58   she's finally off camera and she's very [TS]

01:01:00   professional when she's driven by yeah i [TS]

01:01:02   agree i I would've been fascinating to [TS]

01:01:03   see how they negotiate or what the [TS]

01:01:05   approval processes were for what they [TS]

01:01:06   wanted the one Barbie to do in the movie [TS]

01:01:09   at the same time it is very obvious that [TS]

01:01:11   they realized we made a horrible mistake [TS]

01:01:14   and not having our toys in this [TS]

01:01:15   celebrated film about boys coming to [TS]

01:01:18   life and perhaps we should play ball [TS]

01:01:19   this time and so you know I pixar head [TS]

01:01:22   that leverage going for them of saying [TS]

01:01:24   you know you actually do want to be in [TS]

01:01:26   this movie don't you and and i think the [TS]

01:01:28   movie is richer for having more [TS]

01:01:30   brand-name toys and it actually because [TS]

01:01:32   I think that they there are lots of gags [TS]

01:01:33   you can play [TS]

01:01:34   I like the rock and Sock'em robots joke [TS]

01:01:36   to where they they try to reason with [TS]

01:01:38   them briefly and then they get angry [TS]

01:01:39   they punch each other it's just great [TS]

01:01:41   it's great [TS]

01:01:42   ok so they go if this is the point where [TS]

01:01:44   they go uh it's it's time yeah we we [TS]

01:01:48   learn Jesse story why is jesse was just [TS]

01:01:51   so upset and we discover Jesse had a [TS]

01:01:55   girl named Emily she was just like Andy [TS]

01:01:58   it looks like you know i originally i [TS]

01:02:00   was thinkin sixties i think it may be is [TS]

01:02:01   like the early seventies but it doesn't [TS]

01:02:04   really matter [TS]

01:02:05   it was a long time ago and and and they [TS]

01:02:09   were and then we get the Sarah McLachlan [TS]

01:02:10   song or she sings it's a brand-new [TS]

01:02:13   and composition and this is when she [TS]

01:02:16   loved me which is it all begins as this [TS]

01:02:19   loving relationship between a little [TS]

01:02:21   girl in her doll and it ends with her [TS]

01:02:23   being kind of ignored as the girl grows [TS]

01:02:26   up and becomes nail polish is more [TS]

01:02:28   interesting than toy cowgirls and then [TS]

01:02:32   ultimately she's finally reunited with [TS]

01:02:34   her and they get to take a car ride but [TS]

01:02:35   it turns out she's being taken to be put [TS]

01:02:38   in a donation box and it's a very sad [TS]

01:02:41   and the room gets a little dusty [TS]

01:02:43   this is the scene that both makes the [TS]

01:02:45   movie for me and a tones for randy [TS]

01:02:47   newman's crimes from the previous well [TS]

01:02:49   yeah everything in this sequence is so [TS]

01:02:52   perfectly pitched to tug at the [TS]

01:02:54   heartstrings honestly for me I think it [TS]

01:02:56   actually rivals the masterpiece that is [TS]

01:02:58   the first 10 minutes of up and just like [TS]

01:03:00   that scene i can watch it over and over [TS]

01:03:02   again and every time I end up blubbering [TS]

01:03:05   uncontrollably because it is so sad yeah [TS]

01:03:07   it's all of the sadness of childhood [TS]

01:03:11   coming to an end all of the the pathos [TS]

01:03:13   of people sort of drifting away from [TS]

01:03:15   each other or falling out of love all of [TS]

01:03:17   the pain of being forgotten and left [TS]

01:03:20   behind and it's all packed into two and [TS]

01:03:22   a half minutes and it is so so [TS]

01:03:25   heartbreaking that that lasts that last [TS]

01:03:28   shot of just shocked eyes peering [TS]

01:03:30   through the hole in the boxes Emily [TS]

01:03:32   dress but that's it right there because [TS]

01:03:34   and that that is it so horrible a lesser [TS]

01:03:37   filmmaker would have had Jesse doing [TS]

01:03:39   what crying a lesser filmmaker would [TS]

01:03:41   have had Jesse like like being sad [TS]

01:03:43   obviously she said be right Steve she [TS]

01:03:45   shocked and that's that that's the thing [TS]

01:03:48   that kills you [TS]

01:03:49   she's like I can't believe you're [TS]

01:03:50   driving away and the indifference of [TS]

01:03:52   emily emily is not the unit's families [TS]

01:03:54   face even it's just like emily is just [TS]

01:03:56   going about her business is just it's [TS]

01:03:58   how he especially liked the part which [TS]

01:04:00   is in the seat belt with her driving and [TS]

01:04:02   she thinks it's back to old times but [TS]

01:04:04   Emily doesn't expect i'm waiting on the [TS]

01:04:07   tire swing is in the background the [TS]

01:04:08   first scene that that's a call back to [TS]

01:04:10   where she's riding along with the dolls [TS]

01:04:12   right just hold on the doll and she has [TS]

01:04:14   broken it [TS]

01:04:14   yeah and this one the hand is very [TS]

01:04:16   clearly an inch or two away us so good [TS]

01:04:20   so good i got to take me it's 1999 and I [TS]

01:04:24   have [TS]

01:04:25   a ten-year-old daughter home who and I [TS]

01:04:28   went in to see this movie [TS]

01:04:30   knowing a little bit about it but not [TS]

01:04:32   knowing this scene was coming and I [TS]

01:04:36   spent this whole time not trying not to [TS]

01:04:40   cry because that was on that note that [TS]

01:04:42   was out that allowed nice yeah that [TS]

01:04:44   failed immediately I'm trying to pull [TS]

01:04:46   myself together and not make sobbing [TS]

01:04:48   sounds powwow [TS]

01:04:50   12 to very high honor because this is [TS]

01:04:53   not only you know my daughter is on the [TS]

01:04:55   nose is Emily right now and you know not [TS]

01:04:58   only is she going to leave all of these [TS]

01:05:00   toys that she's been playing with she's [TS]

01:05:03   going to leave me she's going to let you [TS]

01:05:05   know every daar my whole life is going [TS]

01:05:07   to fall apart because she's growing up [TS]

01:05:09   and you know and I should just die that [TS]

01:05:14   what that was basically this movie and [TS]

01:05:16   that's why i have not seen a movie since [TS]

01:05:18   1999 yeah it just tears me up thinking [TS]

01:05:22   about that song makes me cry a lot [TS]

01:05:25   as the only child of a single mother [TS]

01:05:28   your words are other beach its American [TS]

01:05:31   who who moved 500 miles away facedown [TS]

01:05:35   terrible monster that's how did you do [TS]

01:05:40   this time with it [TS]

01:05:41   this I cried and I cried I find myself [TS]

01:05:43   but but yeah cycle course i still cry [TS]

01:05:47   because I was remembering what it was [TS]

01:05:48   and plus my my daughter came home for [TS]

01:05:51   this weekend [TS]

01:05:52   she has she has timeout my what my [TS]

01:05:54   daughter is 27 now [TS]

01:05:56   oh my god you know what [TS]

01:05:59   ok here is a yes i'm sitting in the [TS]

01:06:03   basement watching this movie and you [TS]

01:06:05   know I again I wasn't loud enough so [TS]

01:06:07   that you know my wife didn't hear me [TS]

01:06:08   crying upstairs i'm sure she knew I was [TS]

01:06:10   crashing was watching the moon goes with [TS]

01:06:12   it helped but uh oh my god it was [TS]

01:06:15   terrible [TS]

01:06:16   i'm so glad i saw this is originally [TS]

01:06:17   before I had kids because you get one [TS]

01:06:20   chance to her not to slaughter you [TS]

01:06:22   I mean it's still it's still broke me [TS]

01:06:24   but it broke me in a different parallel [TS]

01:06:26   way [TS]

01:06:26   well it might inoculate you a little bit [TS]

01:06:28   before no no I got to see it because [TS]

01:06:32   just like Stephen no we didn't have our [TS]

01:06:34   first until two years later I got to see [TS]

01:06:36   it the first time thinking about my [TS]

01:06:39   self as a child growing outright my toys [TS]

01:06:41   and all that you identify as the child [TS]

01:06:43   would be reacted and then when you're [TS]

01:06:45   them when you're a parent you identify [TS]

01:06:47   both sides of it and there's no hope ya [TS]

01:06:48   know exactly but that's what makes this [TS]

01:06:50   such a perfect perfect representation of [TS]

01:06:52   what pixar does so well which is to have [TS]

01:06:54   something that's meaningful to the level [TS]

01:06:56   of the child and to the adults you know [TS]

01:06:58   and and this is I mean this is amazing [TS]

01:07:00   in that I a fairly young kid will will [TS]

01:07:04   see this and go oh wow I'm growing up [TS]

01:07:05   and I forgot about that toy had and and [TS]

01:07:08   they'll be sad and then the adults of [TS]

01:07:09   course are depressed about it on a [TS]

01:07:11   completely other level [TS]

01:07:12   I hope everybody likes this sad song [TS]

01:07:14   because they made an entire movie of [TS]

01:07:16   this called toy story 3 that will talk [TS]

01:07:19   to another [TS]

01:07:19   yeah save it my wife my daughter my [TS]

01:07:23   daughter turned to me tonight and she [TS]

01:07:24   was you know get a little bit dust in [TS]

01:07:26   her eye and and she said oh well you [TS]

01:07:29   know that you know at least you know [TS]

01:07:30   Sheila she's getting donated getting [TS]

01:07:32   adopted she was trying to cheer me up [TS]

01:07:34   because I'm sitting there like like [TS]

01:07:37   blubbery day of the doctor style [TS]

01:07:39   oh the couch and it's just like but you [TS]

01:07:42   know this is also like to delve too deep [TS]

01:07:44   but you know I think that this is a [TS]

01:07:46   funny thing is a dumb parent thing but [TS]

01:07:48   done parent thing that happens is like [TS]

01:07:49   you even get this may be late high [TS]

01:07:51   school into college where you start [TS]

01:07:53   there's all the things you grew up [TS]

01:07:55   reading or watching thinking about with [TS]

01:07:58   like oh you know Harry Chapin in style [TS]

01:08:00   crap about oh this is all gonna be [TS]

01:08:02   really funny and ironic one day but [TS]

01:08:03   eventually you reach a point in life [TS]

01:08:04   where you go like oh it's very strange [TS]

01:08:07   to be the child and the adult and [TS]

01:08:11   eventually the parent and so there are [TS]

01:08:13   things that hits you on multiple levels [TS]

01:08:15   that are very hard to process so [TS]

01:08:17   watching that scene [TS]

01:08:18   I don't overstate this but you can watch [TS]

01:08:20   a scene like that and see yourself as so [TS]

01:08:22   many different tragic character sit that [TS]

01:08:25   scene and it makes a kind of [TS]

01:08:27   overwhelming process i was a tire swing [TS]

01:08:28   20 when you when you only saw one set of [TS]

01:08:32   tire tracks on Captain John was carrying [TS]

01:08:34   you man [TS]

01:08:35   the way it's rendered is great too i [TS]

01:08:37   mean i love all of the the oversaturated [TS]

01:08:39   sunlight that that really only exists in [TS]

01:08:42   memories [TS]

01:08:43   and i love that the hillside that they [TS]

01:08:45   play on it has the appearance of spring [TS]

01:08:47   during the happy times but as jesse is [TS]

01:08:49   abandoned on the side of the road it's [TS]

01:08:51   the radish leaves of fall or on display [TS]

01:08:53   and starting to come down from the trees [TS]

01:08:55   their outdoor scenes they look a little [TS]

01:08:57   bit like model train sets was like there [TS]

01:08:59   there it's just a little bit outside [TS]

01:09:01   their abilities and again especially [TS]

01:09:03   compared to like when they like what [TS]

01:09:04   they don't like the forest and brave or [TS]

01:09:05   whatever just our like the good dinosaur [TS]

01:09:07   for crying out loud how far they come [TS]

01:09:10   and so I i don't i don't think it was a [TS]

01:09:12   bad idea to sort of overreach a little [TS]

01:09:14   bit the way because that's how you make [TS]

01:09:15   progress but going back to look at those [TS]

01:09:17   ones those things don't hold up as well [TS]

01:09:19   not that it matters it's true although [TS]

01:09:21   in this case I can kind of forgive it [TS]

01:09:22   because it's supposed to be sort of a [TS]

01:09:24   dimly remembered memory looks perfectly [TS]

01:09:26   fine as you're seeing him through tears [TS]

01:09:28   yeah yeah exactly it's just made all the [TS]

01:09:30   worse when you realize that those flower [TS]

01:09:32   power posters mean the jesse has been [TS]

01:09:34   packed away in the dark [TS]

01:09:36   probably for 35-40 yeah yeah oh god yeah [TS]

01:09:39   let's uh let's uh oh I want to say one [TS]

01:09:42   thing about a Randy Newman Steve [TS]

01:09:44   mentioned it I actually I like randy [TS]

01:09:45   newman a lot i think Brandon's music is [TS]

01:09:48   at its best when it is scarcely angry or [TS]

01:09:51   when it is extremely sad I i think his [TS]

01:09:53   bouncy jaunty ragtime me stuff is I [TS]

01:09:58   think he he does it well but i don't [TS]

01:10:00   like it and it seems awfully easy and a [TS]

01:10:02   waste of his talent kids love toys and [TS]

01:10:04   toys that can like you've got a friend [TS]

01:10:07   in me which is a you know it is what it [TS]

01:10:09   is and i like how what they do with it [TS]

01:10:11   here which is have it be a song on the [TS]

01:10:13   TV show what is roundup that kills me [TS]

01:10:15   but when she loved me is a beautiful [TS]

01:10:17   song because it is sad sad piano song [TS]

01:10:19   and I think everything was really good [TS]

01:10:21   at that so is not done by Randy Newman [TS]

01:10:23   which is also extremely good choice [TS]

01:10:25   right good choice [TS]

01:10:26   he would've ruined it yeah i watched i [TS]

01:10:28   watch toy story one before two today and [TS]

01:10:31   I was like I remember how much I hated [TS]

01:10:33   the meat the music in Toy Story one in [TS]

01:10:35   toy story 2 is so much better so much a [TS]

01:10:39   lot of market orchestral music yeah the [TS]

01:10:41   parts that are supposed to be exciting [TS]

01:10:43   adventure instead of sort of having [TS]

01:10:45   everything be kind of silly random songs [TS]

01:10:48   under every year scene and [TS]

01:10:50   it works better that they save them for [TS]

01:10:52   you know for the the Sarah McLachlan [TS]

01:10:55   song or for the songs on TV they don't [TS]

01:10:57   and the rest of the time it's scored [TS]

01:10:58   more like an action movie there's no [TS]

01:11:00   montage song in this [TS]

01:11:01   well the Sarah McLachlan thing is the [TS]

01:11:03   you know that's ok so you have to get [TS]

01:11:05   and the randy newman score i think is [TS]

01:11:07   good I i think that they chose a [TS]

01:11:09   different tone for this movie and they [TS]

01:11:10   didn't look they didn't know what they [TS]

01:11:12   were doing with the original toy story [TS]

01:11:14   they were making it up as they go along [TS]

01:11:14   and they got it they got a person who [TS]

01:11:17   does scores to score that movie and he [TS]

01:11:19   scored in a you know a very bright [TS]

01:11:21   quirky wacky kind of score and the score [TS]

01:11:24   here is is not so much it's more [TS]

01:11:27   restrained and I think that as [TS]

01:11:29   filmmakers they wanted something [TS]

01:11:31   different and they knew what to ask for [TS]

01:11:33   and I think Randy Newman show that he [TS]

01:11:35   was up to the challenge and in this one [TS]

01:11:37   and and and provide them with a good [TS]

01:11:39   score and providing them with a really [TS]

01:11:40   great song [TS]

01:11:41   although it's not a catchy song by any [TS]

01:11:43   stretch of the imagination and I don't [TS]

01:11:44   think if you heard independent of the [TS]

01:11:46   film you would think it was much of [TS]

01:11:47   anything it doesn't really have a melody [TS]

01:11:49   or any kind of structure to it but it's [TS]

01:11:51   perfect for the scene absolutely perfect [TS]

01:11:53   alright so we'll leave that they [TS]

01:11:55   believed the tears dryer dryer eyes [TS]

01:11:57   everyone let's move on to Emperor Zurg [TS]

01:12:00   done surg is chasing them across the [TS]

01:12:05   across the street [TS]

01:12:06   he's been they escape from the toy the [TS]

01:12:08   Toy Barn because they realize now that [TS]

01:12:11   they need to go get go get woody in [TS]

01:12:13   Alice apartment i have questions about [TS]

01:12:15   how the Toy Barn run okay [TS]

01:12:18   the door is always open there are no [TS]

01:12:20   employees around and there's like four [TS]

01:12:22   people they walk in but then they go [TS]

01:12:25   directly to the back and never leave the [TS]

01:12:27   lights are never on well it's thought it [TS]

01:12:30   sits before anything out there before [TS]

01:12:31   before open and there the employees and [TS]

01:12:33   they're doing stock stuff in the back or [TS]

01:12:35   something like that is how I always did [TS]

01:12:37   they should lock the door [TS]

01:12:38   that is a huge security problem somebody [TS]

01:12:40   just walk in and steal some toys but [TS]

01:12:43   that's that's why don't you at all [TS]

01:12:44   bothered by the loud mooing that [TS]

01:12:45   periodically really shocking activity [TS]

01:12:47   and was so scared and like the the whole [TS]

01:12:50   like the bouncy balls going all over [TS]

01:12:52   like bouncy balls are kind of quiet but [TS]

01:12:54   wouldn't that mean there are things that [TS]

01:12:56   I feel like that is called someone's [TS]

01:12:58   attention now okay i did one rat [TS]

01:13:00   infested barn it makes that I did wonder [TS]

01:13:02   sometimes our stock boys were not paid [TS]

01:13:04   down here that's I think that's exactly [TS]

01:13:05   so that's I mean it really basically you [TS]

01:13:08   know it's and maybe it's supposed to [TS]

01:13:09   read as a toys r us but it's not it's [TS]

01:13:12   not demand toy store in what used to be [TS]

01:16:05   yeah there's an animated realize that [TS]

01:16:07   it's very nicely done animation to [TS]

01:16:09   distinguish the characterization of the [TS]

01:16:10   two the two buzzes huh yeah yeah that's [TS]

01:16:13   a lot of times he's got is a he's got [TS]

01:16:15   his helmet on too so there's some visual [TS]

01:16:17   distinction there too [TS]

01:16:18   well he can't breathe the air yeah well [TS]

01:16:20   yeah mostly on world was a great scene [TS]

01:16:23   where that they you know they do the gag [TS]

01:16:25   doing a million things like yeah you [TS]

01:16:26   know which one is the real one how many [TS]

01:16:28   times has that been done and kids shows [TS]

01:16:29   and movies or whatever and they just pop [TS]

01:16:32   take the air out of it instantly with [TS]

01:16:33   the helmet gag and then just put a stamp [TS]

01:16:35   on it without with the real buzz picking [TS]

01:16:37   up his foot was for this sort of the [TS]

01:16:39   raiders of the lost ark king of that [TS]

01:16:40   seemed yeah but the this is this is the [TS]

01:16:44   point where they reach woody just as [TS]

01:16:46   woody has decided that he is going to [TS]

01:16:48   show he even talked into basically going [TS]

01:16:52   to the museum and allowing them not to [TS]

01:16:53   go back in the boxes again [TS]

01:16:55   ok he heard the sound welcome song to [TS]

01:16:57   you yeah he did was use ok let's do it [TS]

01:16:59   he was in ground zero yeah he's seen the [TS]

01:17:01   movie he knows what hes and so he's [TS]

01:17:03   confronted with his eventual abandoned [TS]

01:17:07   by Andy he thinks maybe going to the [TS]

01:17:09   japanese toy museum wouldn't be such an [TS]

01:17:10   idea or bad idea but his friends arrive [TS]

01:17:14   and we get the scene where buzz is [TS]

01:17:16   giving woody a little bit of a pep talk [TS]

01:17:17   and he says you're not a collector's [TS]

01:17:19   item your child's play thing you are a [TS]

01:17:22   toy which is a call back to the first [TS]

01:17:24   movie although I gotta say it didn't [TS]

01:17:26   work for me [TS]

01:17:27   line while they didn't deliver lat well [TS]

01:17:29   they made in a few more takes em that's [TS]

01:17:32   right flat from tim allen there because [TS]

01:17:34   i wanted the total uh kinda freaked out [TS]

01:17:36   that Tom Hanks gives it in the first [TS]

01:17:38   movie but it's a great that the line [TS]

01:17:40   before I really like you're not a [TS]

01:17:41   collector's item your child's plaything [TS]

01:17:42   this is the entire philosophy of toy [TS]

01:17:45   story which is toys are for playing not [TS]

01:17:48   for collecting not for assaulting away [TS]

01:17:49   you want to play with them but they then [TS]

01:17:52   they they kind of argue it out like I'm [TS]

01:17:54   reminded again that sometimes what he [TS]

01:17:55   can be kind of unlikable because he can [TS]

01:17:58   be [TS]

01:17:58   he's unlikable in in this scene at the [TS]

01:18:00   beginning he's cocky yeah we this is [TS]

01:18:03   where we get you got a friend in me by [TS]

01:18:04   the way to playing as they see the show [TS]

01:18:06   which made me laugh the mean would he [TS]

01:18:07   makes a reappearance yeah oh yeah I mean [TS]

01:18:09   it's just that he he he has an ego and I [TS]

01:18:12   can be streamed please on the border of [TS]

01:18:14   mean here is you wasted your time [TS]

01:18:17   yeah as friends have come all the way [TS]

01:18:19   across town to try and rescue him [TS]

01:18:21   they had to like I think I'm gonna do [TS]

01:18:24   better as they really you really needed [TS]

01:18:25   to believe that would eat like this is [TS]

01:18:27   all motivated by fear and insecurity [TS]

01:18:28   what he not being played with and they [TS]

01:18:30   established that but then later it seems [TS]

01:18:32   almost more like that's gone by the [TS]

01:18:34   wayside and now he's just filled with [TS]

01:18:35   the glory of like important i was / am [TS]

01:18:38   well but some of it some of its just [TS]

01:18:40   because he feels bad for these guys are [TS]

01:18:41   going to go back into storage so when [TS]

01:18:43   you're all bad we can't repeal feelings [TS]

01:18:45   of that magnitude he was he was like 2 [TS]

01:18:47   inches away from her burning down [TS]

01:18:48   well he's the heat of your freedom but [TS]

01:18:50   anyway it's also revealed that the [TS]

01:18:51   prospector is sneaking out of his box [TS]

01:18:53   he's not mint in box after all given out [TS]

01:18:56   of your box and and he was the one who [TS]

01:18:58   hit the remote and has been conniving [TS]

01:19:02   all this time and now he he screws the [TS]

01:19:04   screw into the vents so that they can't [TS]

01:19:06   they can't get back how to them that [TS]

01:19:08   that that doesn't work dr. rain isn't [TS]

01:19:10   bothered by that he screwed he screws it [TS]

01:19:11   was a flat head screw with with a [TS]

01:19:13   cylinder with the top of this pickaxe [TS]

01:19:16   right at optumhealth is a cylinder [TS]

01:19:18   doesn't come to a wedge shape [TS]

01:19:20   yeah well don't down axis go to more of [TS]

01:19:24   a weird shape on the top [TS]

01:19:25   no usually at the at the head of an axe [TS]

01:19:27   you have a wedge that pushes things out [TS]

01:19:31   so in my headcanon it's the wedge that [TS]

01:19:34   you drive into the handle didn't get [TS]

01:19:36   driven all the way down for [TS]

01:19:37   so it's sticking out a little bit and [TS]

01:19:40   that and that make sure your standard [TS]

01:19:41   head screwed [TS]

01:19:42   they didn't model it it's not on the [TS]

01:19:44   screen well its head can trust me its [TS]

01:19:46   American how could you just remind you [TS]

01:19:48   to on a podcast can afford it right now [TS]

01:19:53   i know i know for me [TS]

01:19:55   what's ruined here is the whole reason [TS]

01:19:57   that stinky Pete is such a butt is that [TS]

01:19:59   he's bitter about the fact that nobody [TS]

01:20:01   wanted to stinky Pete to play with so we [TS]

01:20:03   had to watch all the other toys being [TS]

01:20:05   bought for me this beggars belief [TS]

01:20:07   because there's no way that young boys [TS]

01:20:10   watching the intro to the show where [TS]

01:20:12   stinking has a pickaxe up his butt is [TS]

01:20:15   not going to demand that mom go get yeah [TS]

01:20:17   it's not that nobody wanted to stinky [TS]

01:20:20   Pete it's just that like you've never [TS]

01:20:22   managed inventory exactly to match [TS]

01:20:24   demand and they liked the least popular [TS]

01:20:27   character is no matter how much people [TS]

01:20:28   like him he's gonna be the least popular [TS]

01:20:30   character so it's not the no stinky Pete [TS]

01:20:32   sold that he didn't sell many Stinky's [TS]

01:20:35   next to may have sold but when that [TS]

01:20:37   storm finally closed how he was over to [TS]

01:20:38   stop its left on the show so reason no [TS]

01:20:40   one is left and there's no balls I [TS]

01:20:43   there's no Jesse's I feel like the [TS]

01:20:45   implications that stinky Pete in general [TS]

01:20:46   was unloved and I don't think that would [TS]

01:20:49   happen that makes no sense to me there's [TS]

01:20:50   no way that pickaxe in would have driven [TS]

01:20:52   every boy to demand that you have a [TS]

01:20:54   stinky Pete so that he could replicate [TS]

01:20:56   it at home [TS]

01:20:57   alright they flee back to the elevator [TS]

01:20:58   and zerg is there waiting and we get a [TS]

01:21:01   confrontation between zerg and and new [TS]

01:21:04   buzz that includes it the fantastic no [TS]

01:21:08   I'm your father moment that's amazing [TS]

01:21:12   and 11 and and and Buzz and zerg both [TS]

01:21:16   zerg falls like alan rickman in die hard [TS]

01:21:20   off of the side of the elevator which [TS]

01:21:22   made me laugh [TS]

01:21:24   the slow-motion shocked fall as he falls [TS]

01:21:26   down i love that was reaching towards [TS]

01:21:30   him i loves urgh it's just so funny [TS]

01:21:33   me too so funny I i love his weapon and [TS]

01:21:36   like how clearly balls like a yeah just [TS]

01:21:39   this ineffectual weapon has an unlimited [TS]

01:21:41   supply of these pointless bars it's just [TS]

01:21:44   so fun anyway be Pizza Planet truck is [TS]

01:21:46   waiting [TS]

01:21:47   conveniently down below and toys can [TS]

01:21:49   drive a truck did you know [TS]

01:21:51   take it all together now that'd be a lot [TS]

01:21:53   of the things these toys do again [TS]

01:21:55   bending the rules like well people can't [TS]

01:21:57   see them but you're like they're allowed [TS]

01:21:58   to drive a car [TS]

01:21:59   yeah they're capable of driving I don't [TS]

01:22:01   think their setup would have gotten them [TS]

01:22:03   anywhere but like crashed into a hydrant [TS]

01:22:05   is what I'm saying yeah well they would [TS]

01:22:07   have turned toward the clutch out like I [TS]

01:22:09   don't know how it's just like put it in [TS]

01:22:11   gear and they put it in gear but you [TS]

01:22:13   know they don't know what a clutches [TS]

01:22:14   right you can get a card together [TS]

01:22:15   without pushing the clutch down the [TS]

01:22:17   version they needed i actually would [TS]

01:22:19   have accepted the whole thing if [TS]

01:22:20   somebody like Potato Head had just [TS]

01:22:22   declared like you know i-i've watched or [TS]

01:22:26   read or Rex maybe being like I've done [TS]

01:22:28   all of the the racing games i can tell [TS]

01:22:30   you what to do here but instead it just [TS]

01:22:32   seems kind of you know like his buzz [TS]

01:22:33   giving directions and all that but yeah [TS]

01:22:35   I guess you got to go with it also the [TS]

01:22:37   pickup field placement of the Pizza [TS]

01:22:39   Planet truck you gotta get you kind of [TS]

01:22:40   get over it because it's a funny call [TS]

01:22:42   back to the first movie and you accepted [TS]

01:22:43   you like all right fine whatever the [TS]

01:22:45   Pizza Planet truck i remember that movie [TS]

01:22:54   again we get the more time with the [TS]

01:22:56   stairs with a really great subtle gag [TS]

01:22:58   right here too which is that you know [TS]

01:23:00   you've seen them crossing the street and [TS]

01:23:02   he's apparently indestructible orange [TS]

01:23:03   cones and the first thing they do when [TS]

01:23:05   they get behind the wheel the Pizza [TS]

01:23:06   Planet truck is they immediately run [TS]

01:23:08   over the comes across the street and [TS]

01:23:14   have a chase through the baggage [TS]

01:23:17   conveyor system which is extremely [TS]

01:23:19   complicated i guess is what we all [TS]

01:23:22   scenes at the airport with my kids asked [TS]

01:24:07   really don't have to chase out onto the [TS]

01:24:08   tarmac but when he gets to ride bulls I [TS]

01:24:11   ride like the wind bullseye love it I [TS]

01:24:13   love bullseye i love-love-love would be [TS]

01:24:16   writing bullseye bullseye does the East [TS]

01:24:18   get the big eyes he does a he doesn't [TS]

01:24:20   kinda big like a giddy up gallop thing [TS]

01:24:24   at the beginning that it's just the [TS]

01:24:25   whole design of a bull's-eye and how he [TS]

01:24:27   and would move on the tarmac i love it i [TS]

01:24:30   love everything about it [TS]

01:24:31   he's adorable he is so cute always you [TS]

01:24:34   skipped over a stinky Pete using his [TS]

01:24:36   pickaxe to intentionally dislodge some [TS]

01:24:39   threads from Buddy which is ISE severe [TS]

01:24:41   personal violence in the grand scheme of [TS]

01:24:43   toy story is true [TS]

01:24:44   yeah he's threatening threatening would [TS]

01:24:46   be with the infrared heat makes the [TS]

01:24:49   thing to him and pulls out of state yep [TS]

01:24:51   it's true bottling them stitches get the [TS]

01:24:53   slugs buzz and says take that space toy [TS]

01:24:56   oh there's something else i know this [TS]

01:24:58   like you get such study filmmaking the [TS]

01:25:01   you don't notice what's going on but [TS]

01:25:02   that they just make sure that all their [TS]

01:25:04   eyes are dotted and t's across when they [TS]

01:25:06   come upon the wrong bag [TS]

01:25:09   the wrong suitcase that doesn't have [TS]

01:25:11   your business to green ones and it has [TS]

01:25:12   the camera flashes in it they make sure [TS]

01:25:14   one of the characters says not a nice [TS]

01:25:18   flashes though because they have to [TS]

01:25:19   establish the kids who have no freaking [TS]

01:25:21   idea what the hell like an old reporter [TS]

01:25:22   style flashes they have to establish [TS]

01:25:24   that these are flashes if they don't say [TS]

01:25:26   that the next scene when they pop up and [TS]

01:25:27   use them to blind stinky pee right [TS]

01:25:29   doesn't make any sense shows that people [TS]

01:25:31   are paying attention and there you know [TS]

01:25:33   going over this every single line every [TS]

01:25:35   single scene what works what doesn't [TS]

01:25:36   what do we have to do here and they [TS]

01:25:38   could have turned into a joke and they [TS]

01:25:39   didn't but at least they left it in [TS]

01:25:40   there to just you know to make sure [TS]

01:25:42   people know these are flashes so now [TS]

01:25:44   that we know that that once you put your [TS]

01:25:45   bag on a card it goes into a wonderland [TS]

01:25:47   of conveyor belts that are incredibly [TS]

01:25:50   incredibly sophisticated that will take [TS]

01:25:52   your bag to its destination [TS]

01:25:53   the next thing we learn is when they're [TS]

01:25:55   loading the the bags on a plane even if [TS]

01:25:58   its glass and says fragile on it a guy [TS]

01:26:00   just checked it in the shadows and it [TS]

01:26:02   and it's cavernous is like the TARDIS [TS]

01:26:03   planned it that way bigger on the inside [TS]

01:26:05   this room like how big the baby of the [TS]

01:26:07   cargo area flames like a football field [TS]

01:26:08   in there and it's so sparsely populated [TS]

01:26:10   as a giant cavern with a sort of a [TS]

01:26:13   smattering of bag [TS]

01:26:15   that is the flip that plane is going [TS]

01:26:17   down as soon as it goes and take off and [TS]

01:26:18   I think tilts up in the weight the [TS]

01:26:19   wormhole wait in that plane shifts to [TS]

01:26:21   the back of the suitcases all-time down [TS]

01:26:22   and it's going to japan i would think [TS]

01:26:24   that there would be more luggage and if [TS]

01:26:25   it's going to teach man maybe it's a [TS]

01:26:27   connector flight maybe it [TS]

01:26:29   I don't know but they they they anyway [TS]

01:26:33   that woody escapes with with Jesse out [TS]

01:26:38   through the door because they get locked [TS]

01:26:40   in and the plane is taxing but they they [TS]

01:26:43   pop open up like a hatch that gets them [TS]

01:26:45   down onto the landing gear and then from [TS]

01:26:48   there they jumped down and because [TS]

01:26:51   buzzes there and-and-and there they're [TS]

01:26:54   saved her a they don't have to go in the [TS]

01:26:57   plane to Japan boy al from Al's Toy Barn [TS]

01:26:59   is gonna be really upset when he [TS]

01:27:01   discovers that the airline lost his [TS]

01:27:03   luggage but we don't need to see that [TS]

01:27:04   same thing now we don't know I assume it [TS]

01:27:06   was insured it i hope you ensure that [TS]

01:27:08   but he's so sad in the last scene in the [TS]

01:27:10   movie that I guess he didn't he was too [TS]

01:27:12   busy shouting don't touch my mustache [TS]

01:27:14   into the phone they're like they have to [TS]

01:27:17   get back to andy's house how do they do [TS]

01:27:18   that the answer is they apparently take [TS]

01:27:20   a luggage cart like it to one of the [TS]

01:27:23   from the tarmac and drive it back [TS]

01:27:25   because it's parked across the street [TS]

01:27:26   later and there's a shot of the people [TS]

01:27:30   across the street being mystified about [TS]

01:27:32   why it's there that i like because they [TS]

01:27:35   had to explain how they get back there [TS]

01:27:36   and they say was the end of the scene to [TS]

01:27:38   explain it they don't it's not linear so [TS]

01:27:40   it's a nice like you may have thought we [TS]

01:27:41   forgot about step trying to explain how [TS]

01:27:43   these toys got back but we have big fun [TS]

01:27:45   and we'll see people reacting to the [TS]

01:27:47   fact that there's this luggage cart [TS]

01:27:48   parked in front of their house which is [TS]

01:27:49   which is funny [TS]

01:27:51   buzz is is but putting the moves on [TS]

01:27:53   Jesse here at the end of the movie too [TS]

01:27:55   yeah what's up with that yeah it's like [TS]

01:27:58   I don't know i don't know well you know [TS]

01:28:00   what he is with Bo Peep so even gets a [TS]

01:28:03   little wing boater very perfect couple [TS]

01:28:05   they're both they're both boys of action [TS]

01:28:06   ya know he's impressed with her way with [TS]

01:28:09   a with a car and Luke track [TS]

01:28:12   I just feel like Jesse needs some time [TS]

01:28:13   she's been through this tragic event she [TS]

01:28:15   really does [TS]

01:28:16   it's been 30 it's not you [TS]

01:28:18   it's me I meet some great sages teen [TS]

01:28:20   space that they do the great gag with [TS]

01:28:23   his wings popping out though [TS]

01:28:25   yeah everybody always end on a boner [TS]

01:28:27   joke John it's classic filmmaking what [TS]

01:28:29   and he finds the finest the toys & and [TS]

01:28:31   it's like oh cool i got more I got more [TS]

01:28:34   Cowboys which is the great sort of it [TS]

01:28:36   entitled attitude as of today spoiled [TS]

01:28:38   you that we all spoil ya [TS]

01:28:39   oh cool new toys I don't know how to get [TS]

01:28:42   here where they come from but I deserve [TS]

01:28:43   you just got his modern sensibility with [TS]

01:28:45   these old-fashioned toys so he comes up [TS]

01:28:46   with a whole storyline for them that is [TS]

01:28:48   nothing to do with Woody's roundup right [TS]

01:28:50   because he doesn't know anything about [TS]

01:28:52   that he just cast them in whatever roles [TS]

01:28:54   he wants woody and Jessie and Buzz to be [TS]

01:28:56   in and that's what he does which is [TS]

01:28:58   great and he has a vivid imagination [TS]

01:29:00   you've got to keep the nightmares away [TS]

01:29:01   somehow i I've tried to catch my [TS]

01:29:04   daughter and her sort of imagine to play [TS]

01:29:06   just want the same things like it [TS]

01:29:07   doesn't matter what toys you have the [TS]

01:29:08   the roles they end up in our just yeah [TS]

01:29:10   totally out there things you would not [TS]

01:29:13   even consider reasonable are plausible [TS]

01:29:16   it's tough to catch without because he [TS]

01:29:17   sees you she stops yeah but if there's a [TS]

01:29:20   realism to that that is definitely those [TS]

01:29:22   are definitely observations from parents [TS]

01:29:24   that you're seeing that [TS]

01:29:25   yeah and i have wondered though at what [TS]

01:29:28   one does and he ever say hey mom I these [TS]

01:29:30   toys are cooler she see them and think [TS]

01:29:32   oh wow that's weird or is she too busy [TS]

01:29:35   being those three assumes that came from [TS]

01:29:38   cowboy camp and he never mentions ok [TS]

01:29:41   that's what i am declaring maybe through [TS]

01:29:45   his perfunctory thank you there and [TS]

01:29:46   that's all he has to say about it was [TS]

01:29:48   the one of the more unrealistic at least [TS]

01:29:50   in my life model realistic things how [TS]

01:29:51   many Danny's room is in general and i [TS]

01:29:53   know of new toy showed up my daughter [TS]

01:29:55   might have no idea because i can't even [TS]

01:29:56   see the floor in there i feel a song [TS]

01:30:00   coming on Weezy has been fixed [TS]

01:30:01   miraculously announce things like Robert [TS]

01:30:04   Goulet and then he sings a lousy version [TS]

01:30:07   of you've got a friend in me and we go [TS]

01:30:08   off to the credits with the real yeah [TS]

01:30:11   anybody doing real good stuff although [TS]

01:30:14   i'm not sure whether I find the big song [TS]

01:30:17   at the end more dissatisfying or the [TS]

01:30:19   poppy Moore disaster had nailed the then [TS]

01:30:24   now [TS]

01:30:24   the ending is quite yet I i find this [TS]

01:30:26   better than the puppy ending because [TS]

01:30:28   it's actually we get the you know we get [TS]

01:30:31   the resolution of weezy and it's very [TS]

01:30:34   unlikely i don't love it but but I like [TS]

01:30:37   it better than then puppy [TS]

01:30:39   Oh kind of yeah I think they're both on [TS]

01:30:41   the same thing and then a musical number [TS]

01:30:43   yeah whatever end-to-end on the hall but [TS]

01:30:45   what about this it's like it would have [TS]

01:30:47   more so they said oh what a puppy and [TS]

01:30:49   then toy story 2 is about the puppy that [TS]

01:30:50   would have been terrible but it's not [TS]

01:30:51   understanding but you know what's what's [TS]

01:30:53   funny is that like my gosh I don't know [TS]

01:30:56   this this H again who knows how long [TS]

01:30:59   this movie will affect me the way it [TS]

01:31:00   does but like yeah I got pretty [TS]

01:31:02   significantly during that the jesse [TS]

01:31:04   scene but the other one that made me i [TS]

01:31:05   don't know like strangely moved is a and [TS]

01:31:08   we're now and what he says whatever [TS]

01:31:10   happens next will be together you know [TS]

01:31:12   to infinity and beyond yeah because [TS]

01:31:14   something really sweet about the [TS]

01:31:15   friendship message of this and you know [TS]

01:31:17   that that's the thing about woody is [TS]

01:31:19   that you know we don't talk much about [TS]

01:31:21   this here but like you know he's a very [TS]

01:31:23   privileged doll like he's had this o [TS]

01:31:26   like this world of affection his whole [TS]

01:31:28   life he's been like the Alpha doll and [TS]

01:31:31   like and so finally when he's outside of [TS]

01:31:33   that environment yes he finds out that [TS]

01:31:34   he's a superstar but he also discovers [TS]

01:31:36   that there's a world outside of what he [TS]

01:31:38   knew and so he's kind of applying [TS]

01:31:40   probably over reading this but the way [TS]

01:31:42   that he's applying the empathy that he [TS]

01:31:43   has about Andy to other these other new [TS]

01:31:46   toys he didn't know about is is really [TS]

01:31:48   sweet and when he gets back home like [TS]

01:31:49   that just like you know rebonds him to [TS]

01:31:52   all these other people and I i love that [TS]

01:31:54   part [TS]

01:31:54   yeah that was it that was a good ending [TS]

01:31:55   to the infinity beyond in the affected [TS]

01:31:57   by tom hanks gives good line rings and [TS]

01:31:59   all this stuff he is great like I feel [TS]

01:32:01   like the movie is so great and so [TS]

01:32:03   satisfying in total that as it winds [TS]

01:32:06   down [TS]

01:32:06   who cares and then the bloopers are just [TS]

01:32:08   like it let you leave the theater so we [TS]

01:32:10   use all of them on it with just a great [TS]

01:32:12   feeling because that's exactly what you [TS]

01:32:13   want to just relive i love credit [TS]

01:32:15   sequences that lets you breathe in video [TS]

01:32:18   games and movies let you briefly we live [TS]

01:32:20   the things that you enjoyed about the [TS]

01:32:21   movie just sort of go out on a high out [TS]

01:32:24   inside it has never bothered me that [TS]

01:32:25   these movies and like scooby-doo cilia [TS]

01:32:29   so you have to you have to go out with a [TS]

01:32:32   song on this movie because this is a [TS]

01:32:33   film that has just only recently [TS]

01:32:35   courtesy of stinky Pete put the idea [TS]

01:32:38   that these toys will all end up rotting [TS]

01:32:40   in a landfill is their final destination [TS]

01:32:43   where is that into our story three to [TS]

01:32:44   work yeah what I think going back to [TS]

01:32:47   kind of the friendship angle that's kind [TS]

01:32:49   of white fuzz putting the moves on Jesse [TS]

01:32:51   bothers me is because we've got this [TS]

01:32:52   movie about forming friendships and [TS]

01:32:55   bonds and and then you get a new girl [TS]

01:32:57   character and it's like well of course [TS]

01:32:59   she's got a pair up with somebody and I [TS]

01:33:01   don't know that's probably me reading [TS]

01:33:04   too much into things like I tend to do [TS]

01:33:06   but it's just like why can't she just go [TS]

01:33:08   and be friends yeah I thought about it [TS]

01:33:10   to you have you know what he is what is [TS]

01:33:12   her big brother right like the way that [TS]

01:33:14   she looks up to him [TS]

01:33:15   they're clearly that was not been a [TS]

01:33:17   really weird relationship I'm if Bo Peep [TS]

01:33:20   weren't there but like why did I don't [TS]

01:33:22   understand why they did that I really it [TS]

01:33:25   doesn't really bother me but it kind of [TS]

01:33:27   nickels at me lake [TS]

01:33:29   why did they have to do that why [TS]

01:33:30   couldn't it just be like oh look at us [TS]

01:33:32   we're friends were family and you know [TS]

01:33:35   because movies like China because I [TS]

01:33:38   drought on female toys though if you're [TS]

01:33:41   gonna have male female pairings like [TS]

01:33:42   mister mister potato head he was excited [TS]

01:33:44   to get mr. updated and they're paired up [TS]

01:33:46   and then what he's got Bo Peep but [TS]

01:33:47   there's just a lot of a lot of a and [TS]

01:33:50   it's like a landscape is just rattling [TS]

01:33:52   or i can think of all those army men [TS]

01:33:54   what are they doing the usual is all do [TS]

01:33:57   don't ask don't tell john the movie [TS]

01:34:01   wants to have relationships it wants to [TS]

01:34:03   have to show that they're like you know [TS]

01:34:04   committed couples here and even though [TS]

01:34:06   they don't mean any of them so they [TS]

01:34:08   bring in his girl character i guess it [TS]

01:34:09   just falls into you know well what when [TS]

01:34:11   there's an available girl character of [TS]

01:34:13   similar stature and species to you then [TS]

01:34:18   it then you know relationships are in [TS]

01:34:20   play but only to be fair he doesn't [TS]

01:34:22   really put the moves on her heart he [TS]

01:34:24   sort of haltingly points out that she's [TS]

01:34:26   impressed by creating a virus by her [TS]

01:34:29   into the wing gag it's not like he's a [TS]

01:34:31   you know and she means almost like he's [TS]

01:34:33   an awkward teenage boy it's a way to [TS]

01:34:35   tell a couple of funny jokes about buzz [TS]

01:34:38   and who he is and how he fits in now [TS]

01:34:40   that this has changed a little bit i've [TS]

01:34:41   been today but i but I see your point to [TS]

01:34:44   where I was like that's weird that I [TS]

01:34:45   felt a little weird to me that it was in [TS]

01:34:47   there is a little of that the whole of [TS]

01:34:49   toy story like it's not that long [TS]

01:34:50   the nineties right but like if you want [TS]

01:34:52   to get down to it looks very gender [TS]

01:34:53   normative the girls have all the pink [TS]

01:34:55   toys and they play with little dollies [TS]

01:34:56   have kitchen things and have nail polish [TS]

01:34:58   and you know they do so much better and [TS]

01:35:00   inside out with a girl plays hockey and [TS]

01:35:02   does not have everything pink and frilly [TS]

01:35:03   now there's anything wrong with thinking [TS]

01:35:05   freely in pony but it's like the toy [TS]

01:35:06   story movies are very straight down the [TS]

01:35:08   middle exactly what you would expect ya [TS]

01:35:10   strike in terms of all the stereotypes [TS]

01:35:12   and the slots that we want to put people [TS]

01:35:14   into not really pushing those boundaries [TS]

01:35:16   at all [TS]

01:35:17   yeah yeah you don't want to know who [TS]

01:35:18   hooks up with bull side now slaughtered [TS]

01:35:21   pigs and all of that we his court comes [TS]

01:35:24   out she does look away over your eyes [TS]

01:35:27   and looked at so one thing I would [TS]

01:35:28   recommend which I've been doing I often [TS]

01:35:30   do is a have a digital version of this [TS]

01:35:33   thing is I if you have a chance to just [TS]

01:35:35   watch this movie with the sound off [TS]

01:35:37   you really don't appreciate the [TS]

01:35:39   animation especially in a movie that's [TS]

01:35:40   fun and the script is good and you're [TS]

01:35:41   laughing at the jokes and getting caught [TS]

01:35:42   up in the story just watch it with the [TS]

01:35:44   sound off and look at what these people [TS]

01:35:45   do like toys need to be rotated when [TS]

01:35:48   their way and what he does the thing [TS]

01:35:50   with his hands and the look on stinky [TS]

01:35:52   Pete face when the two Barbie dolls [TS]

01:35:54   leave his little box like just never [TS]

01:35:57   that the animation here is is superb it [TS]

01:36:00   is you know hand-drawn animation caliber [TS]

01:36:02   I really and it's so much more I think [TS]

01:36:04   the more sophisticated than it was in in [TS]

01:36:07   the first toy story that uh and you I [TS]

01:36:09   think they're really appreciate it just [TS]

01:36:11   take a look with no sound [TS]

01:36:12   yeah so this is this i would put this as [TS]

01:36:14   my top toy story film and definitely [TS]

01:36:17   maybe in the top three of the pixar [TS]

01:36:19   films that I've seen and I think why [TS]

01:36:23   it's important is because I mean [TS]

01:36:26   obviously the first couple of films the [TS]

01:36:28   thing on display was mostly this is our [TS]

01:36:29   software and it can do these amazing [TS]

01:36:31   things and we really can you know make a [TS]

01:36:34   film that's entirely computer-generated [TS]

01:36:36   and people will still love it you know [TS]

01:36:38   it's kind of exciting to sort of get the [TS]

01:36:39   idea what people seeing snow white for [TS]

01:36:41   the first time in 1937 probably [TS]

01:36:43   experienced but by the time we're on the [TS]

01:36:46   movie three they've kind of got things [TS]

01:36:47   under control and that's no longer as [TS]

01:36:49   impressive as it used to be and so what [TS]

01:36:51   really needed to happen was that they [TS]

01:36:53   needed to prove that they could [TS]

01:36:54   effectively make you cry but I'm really [TS]

01:36:59   bring the drama and really you bring the [TS]

01:37:01   story to the four because at some point [TS]

01:37:03   the software so go [TS]

01:37:04   that that that making a movie with a [TS]

01:37:07   computer actually becomes easier than [TS]

01:37:08   making a live-action movie and certainly [TS]

01:37:10   a lot easier than animated thing hit I [TS]

01:37:12   can hear dr. Riya crumbling to dust as [TS]

01:37:14   you speaking what I mean at some point [TS]

01:37:16   you know you can obviously you're going [TS]

01:37:17   to want to push the art further every [TS]

01:37:19   time but at some point it reaches the [TS]

01:37:21   point where it's good enough that [TS]

01:37:22   somebody can put together a a food fight [TS]

01:37:24   yeah very cheaply and without putting [TS]

01:37:26   any kind of real thought into it and and [TS]

01:37:28   this was the movie that proved to me [TS]

01:37:29   that pixar was a real deal i mean is [TS]

01:37:31   this was going concern that could could [TS]

01:37:34   live on long after the excitement of the [TS]

01:37:36   technology had faded away but they have [TS]

01:37:38   to up their game and they did I mean [TS]

01:37:40   like not to say that they concentrate [TS]

01:37:41   they did the other the first two movies [TS]

01:37:43   are all very solid that very sturdy [TS]

01:37:46   stories they did our sophisticated [TS]

01:37:49   enough for adults that appealing to kids [TS]

01:37:50   and all that or whatever but that I mean [TS]

01:37:53   it's not i'm going to thinking I'm some [TS]

01:37:55   bug's life in years but are there any [TS]

01:37:56   scenes in the first toy story or bugs [TS]

01:37:58   life that are likely to break adults to [TS]

01:38:00   you don't think that the yards the [TS]

01:38:02   yardstick but like the joke about the [TS]

01:38:04   whole pixar sadness department you know [TS]

01:38:06   like you don't have to do that to be a [TS]

01:38:09   powerful movie in some ways it's kind of [TS]

01:38:10   a a little bit of you know if you just [TS]

01:38:12   go for maudlin and just know where the [TS]

01:38:14   heartstrings aren't talking on things [TS]

01:38:15   that we don't accept the live-action [TS]

01:38:16   movies that we will accept an animated [TS]

01:38:18   movies for whatever reason but it's a [TS]

01:38:21   similar story similar ideas they just [TS]

01:38:23   want them to go deeper and it's really [TS]

01:38:25   tricky to do because how do you go [TS]

01:38:27   deeper without making your movie over [TS]

01:38:29   serious and not interesting to kids and [TS]

01:38:31   how do you get people to take it [TS]

01:38:32   seriously and toy story 2 showed how you [TS]

01:38:34   did it yeah just as fun just you know [TS]

01:38:37   it's kinda great again great Simpsons [TS]

01:38:38   episodes do some other things especially [TS]

01:38:39   early on before their their harvest [TS]

01:38:41   entirely torn out of that show where [TS]

01:38:43   they may be a moment in a silly Simpsons [TS]

01:38:45   episode where you feel something just [TS]

01:38:46   for a second you like white how did they [TS]

01:38:48   do that [TS]

01:38:48   like not for long just for a moment and [TS]

01:38:50   then toy story you know the whole movie [TS]

01:38:51   you're feeling things and laughing and [TS]

01:38:53   getting caught up with things and being [TS]

01:38:55   dazzled by cleverness and animation and [TS]

01:38:57   all that stuff I i think i had to see [TS]

01:39:00   toy story 3 again 22 really rank them [TS]

01:39:03   but pretty feel pretty comfortable [TS]

01:39:05   saying this is the best to start moving [TS]

01:39:06   furniture [TS]

01:39:07   yeah i agree that this is that this was [TS]

01:39:09   the best toy story movie arm and you [TS]

01:39:12   know when i saw it [TS]

01:39:13   when it first came out what was really [TS]

01:39:15   impressive was that did not have the [TS]

01:39:18   sophomore slump it was it was a better [TS]

01:39:20   movie than the first one on and I was [TS]

01:39:23   kind of surprised by it i think the [TS]

01:39:25   conceit of the story of what the story [TS]

01:39:28   is about this whole thing what you know [TS]

01:39:30   the existential problem for for woody [TS]

01:39:32   and the toys and why am I here [TS]

01:39:34   that's a story that gets told not about [TS]

01:39:36   toy so much but that's a story that it's [TS]

01:39:38   gotten told before but the the twist [TS]

01:39:42   they put on it and this the issue of the [TS]

01:39:45   of woody being a collectible you know [TS]

01:39:48   that's something that really that's a [TS]

01:39:51   story that could only be told at a [TS]

01:39:53   certain time right it has to be told [TS]

01:39:55   after there is both mass production of [TS]

01:39:59   toys which didn't really happen until [TS]

01:40:01   sometime in the 20th century and there [TS]

01:40:04   has to be a mass media of for there to [TS]

01:40:07   be nostalgia for those toys so it's a to [TS]

01:40:10   me that it's really interesting this was [TS]

01:40:12   a very modern story you have to you have [TS]

01:40:14   to be at a certain point in history the [TS]

01:40:17   history of the world to have this story [TS]

01:40:19   told not just because you know not just [TS]

01:40:20   because it's computer animation or even [TS]

01:40:22   though it's a movie but just the [TS]

01:40:24   fundamentals of this story could not be [TS]

01:40:27   told to much earlier than when this [TS]

01:40:29   story was told and I just thought that [TS]

01:40:31   was a fascinating thing the whole thing [TS]

01:40:33   about not just what's what's a toy to be [TS]

01:40:36   but what adults do because it is the [TS]

01:40:41   adults who are kind of perverting the [TS]

01:40:43   what the toys are for by putting them in [TS]

01:40:47   museums and taken you know it's adults [TS]

01:40:49   that are locking them away [TS]

01:40:51   it's not it's not the kids that are [TS]

01:40:52   locking the way it's the adults it's [TS]

01:40:55   very similar to when I think when the [TS]

01:40:58   force awakens came out there was an SNL [TS]

01:41:02   fake commercial for a new set of of Star [TS]

01:41:07   Wars toys that come out i don't know if [TS]

01:41:09   you saw this but it's it starts off with [TS]

01:41:11   kids are really excited about the cool [TS]

01:41:13   toys they're coming out using this great [TS]

01:41:15   and then suddenly 30-year old men start [TS]

01:41:17   appearing in in the commercial and [TS]

01:41:20   they're taking the toys and you know [TS]

01:41:22   putting them on shelves and keeping them [TS]

01:41:24   in the box [TS]

01:41:25   in it in the theme of that commercial [TS]

01:41:27   and of course everybody laughs but the [TS]

01:41:29   theme of that commercial is the same [TS]

01:41:31   thing as toy story 2 played more for [TS]

01:41:35   Laughs than toy story 2 did I think toy [TS]

01:41:38   story 2 handled that that idea very [TS]

01:41:43   intelligently and it was something that [TS]

01:41:46   you know the filmmakers must have [TS]

01:41:48   thought about an awful lot so I i really [TS]

01:41:50   like this movie not just because it [TS]

01:41:52   makes me cry arm but i just thought this [TS]

01:41:56   was a very well done movie start to [TS]

01:41:58   finish the theme was very interesting [TS]

01:42:00   yes it's good that it's got the funny [TS]

01:42:02   stuff in it it's just it's it's just [TS]

01:42:04   right the ambition level here the art [TS]

01:42:08   and the confidence that they could [TS]

01:42:10   execute this even though yeah i know [TS]

01:42:12   they were under the gun with this one [TS]

01:42:14   the ambition of the story or maybe it [TS]

01:42:17   was that they they were so worried about [TS]

01:42:18   getting it out that they didn't think [TS]

01:42:20   about what they were doing on some level [TS]

01:42:22   and but it really did it really does [TS]

01:42:25   come together its striking because it is [TS]

01:42:28   by a studio that's that seems to be [TS]

01:42:32   firing on all cylinders whereas the [TS]

01:42:34   first movie was an experiment and they [TS]

01:42:36   were you know they were struggling to to [TS]

01:42:38   make the what is the first Pixar movie [TS]

01:42:40   pic and i would argue maybe the toy [TS]

01:42:42   story 2 is the first like of what we [TS]

01:42:44   think of now as pixar movies that moment [TS]

01:42:47   with that song when we when we cheer up [TS]

01:42:49   i mean that's like I'll pixar moment now [TS]

01:42:51   we have pics are moments or they try to [TS]

01:42:54   have them anyway like we take it for [TS]

01:42:55   granted you're like oh look it's so it's [TS]

01:42:57   so easy to put on a sad song and like it [TS]

01:42:59   just works perfectly as a gag it's a [TS]

01:43:01   gimmick but you just look at so many [TS]

01:43:02   other movies there's good movies movies [TS]

01:43:04   that animated movies that are so clearly [TS]

01:43:06   in the pixar mode that try to have that [TS]

01:43:08   scene and they get close like it's not [TS]

01:43:09   bad you don't go I'm not move but it all [TS]

01:43:11   you're a little bit moved when you [TS]

01:43:13   realize how damn hard it is yeah [TS]

01:43:14   to do what the way pixar doesn't that [TS]

01:43:16   you can have all the pieces and put them [TS]

01:43:18   all together in a pretty competent way [TS]

01:43:20   and have a pretty good movie like I'm [TS]

01:43:21   thinking something like big hero 6 which [TS]

01:43:23   is a good movie now and i enjoy and they [TS]

01:43:25   tried to do a lot of the same things [TS]

01:43:25   pixar does and all of them are competent [TS]

01:43:28   to good but toy story 2 is just a head [TS]

01:43:32   and shoulder and this is where it i mean [TS]

01:43:33   this is where the idea of pics are doing [TS]

01:43:36   that pixar making you cry [TS]

01:43:38   it comes from here comes [TS]

01:43:39   toy story 2 okay we're gonna wrap up the [TS]

01:43:41   pixar movie club for now we'll be back [TS]

01:43:44   with another one probably like a year [TS]

01:43:46   maybe we'll hopefully a little bit less [TS]

01:43:48   wives don't know you better having back [TS]
