Toy Story is the most creatively bankrupt franchise for children's toys that Disney has ever been created. Each episode following a generic cowboy and bi-polar spaceman as they retread themes that has been indistinguishable from each other. Aside from the bright imagery, the series only consistency has been its lack of creativity and ineffective use of cgi, all to make toys seem more life like than the dull, hollowed out PVC shells made in China. Perhaps the die was cast when Spielberg vetoed the idea of Lasseter directing the series; he made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just nostalgicly profitable cross-promotion for the numerous toylines over the decades. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the toys are g-g-good though
"No!"
The articulation is dreadful; the movie was terrible. As I watched, I noticed that every time a character crossed his arms, the toy was unable to move it in any direction other than "up" and "down". I began marking every time this happened on the back of the vhs cover, I was incredulous. The movies are full of errors that none of the toys can even replicate what is shown on screen. As I have stated many times before, these movies are trite and no child should ever have to watch them, let alone play with any of these toys.
