Pixar Gives First Look at ‘Toy Story 5’ Kids Tablet Villain LilyPad, Joan Cusack to Reprise Role of Jessie

Pixar's panel has just happened at the Annecy Animation Festival where they covered a bunch of projects, from Hoppers to Gatto to Elio and Toy Story 5.

Pete Doctor confirmed that Joan Cusack is reprising her role as Jessie. And they introduced the movie's villain. As we know, it'll be about technology coming into Bonnie's life and our beloved toys coming to terms with that.

The following concept art shows you the kids tablet named LilyPad, the movie's villain.

Source is all over social media but a trade that mentions Joan Cusack is Variety.

When did you stop watching Pixar /co/?

Powerful.

>>148993340
this pic speaks the truth

Bonnie get iPad.
iPad bad.
iPad full of slop, unlike Toy Story 5.
Definitely not a passionless product film.

>>148993340
I saw all the decline movies except cars 3.

If Pixar had balls they should do a crossover with Wreck it Ralph. Especially since video games are considered toys all the sprites and characters are also alive.

>>148993332 (OP)
>New thing bad
>Old thing good
I don't see what the big deal is, I grew up with a iPad and I ended up fine.

Hope you guys are ready for some more Forky.

>>148993396
I can't wait for the contrived explanation for why Woody is there

>>148993396
>He's jacking off to that fart fetish OC again.

>>148993390
>New thing bad
>Old thing good
It's blatant propaganda from Pixar to radicalize the masses into being complacent with only sequels and reboots from now on.

The irony of making the new thing the villain and the old, rotting thing the hero perfect mirrors a company that's been losing it's good reputation the last decade and needs to look good among its more exciting contemporaries.

>>148993396
Are the Potato heads gone now? Don Rickles and Estelle Harris are dead.

I still haven't watched 4.

>>148993390
You post on /co/, you did not end up fine.

So wait, it's a cross between an iPad and those old Leapfrog games from the 2000s?
That's weird. I liked the Batman and Sonic X ones

>>148993423
It's boring and turns Woody into a total wimp.

>>148993422
Their voices could be AI generated like Darth Vader.

Will the sex toys be in it?

>>148993390
>I ended up fine

Says the guy posting to 4chan.

>>148993340
Incredibles 2 was such pure nostalgia bait

>>148993458
It would have been better with a unique plot and not HEY GUYS IT'S BEEN 15 YEARS COME SEE YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS AGAIN BUT WITH SLIGHTLY BETTER ANIMATION.

>kids don't like toys anymore :(
I always hated this blatant lie.
Kids still love toys, it's just that all the toys suck ass now because of cost-cutting and an unwillingness to invest in them. Give a kid a really cool toy and they'll probably love it.
The Toy Story toys are actually a good example of this. Go to any store now, and the Toy Story toys have less paint detail, action features, and quality control than they did in 1999.

>>148993332 (OP)
I DEMAND DEATH

>>148993465
It was before the movie even started and they had that "message from the cast and crew" that I realized what I was in for.

>>148993468
My nephew loves smacking his dinosaur toys together and watching me put together his lego series so he can smash them.
He's an odd kid.

>>148993332 (OP)
Remember guys. It's not the fault of standardized artstyles, sensationless stories and an obsession with certain sociopolitical messages. It is the screens' fault.

>>148993468
You know what it is?
When they say "kids don't like toys anymore", they typically mean dolls and action figures.
If you give a bunch of kids some nerf guns, water guns or toy swords, they'll do what we did. Drones are basically more advanced RC helicopters.
The problem isn't 'tablets over toys', its moreso that these lazy ass parents need to limit the kids fucking tablet time and actually foster their imagination and sense of play.
This same shit happened with TV and video games when we were kids, the difference was most parents would fucking limit the screen time and make the kids do other things

>>148993396
>the toys soles the problem by making a series of YouTube videos telling parents the dangers of electronic devices
>they get away with it because everyone assumes the videos are computer generated

No really, I'm betting they'll do something like that.

>>148993340
Soul is the last Pixar movie I've watched. It was fine as far as I remember. Nothing else they've released after has grabbed my attention.

>>148993340
I never stopped. If anything, I watched more Pixar as I've gotten more disposable income and less inhibition to watch movies in theaters.

More than half of those "decomposing corpse" movies are still bangers. Of course, Pixar just doesn't have the same sway. It's not an unmissable event film / cultural milestone anymore. Each one is a gamble.

>>148993332 (OP)
Morph, you son of a bitch!

>>148993445
I hope so.

>>148993545
Considering that real-life people somehow had no problem with Wreck It Ralph, the character, making a bunch of viral videos in his sequel, I can see them doing this.

>>148993340
Ratatouille/Wall E, I think Up is a good movie, but from then on Pixar didn't really appeal to me anymore.

>>148993692
Are you me?

>>148993458
Nostalgia bait for helentards and no one else

Combat Carl is going to show up too, and be voiced by the forgotten unloved fourth Ghostbuster.

>>148993519
This. Millenials parents are atrocious and let their kids get exposed to dogshit content for multiple hours a day. And then they get surprised when they found out their kids are drooling retards with no attention span

>>148993390
Fuck off underage zoomer.

>>148993468
Based wise anon.

>>148993340
Good Dinosaur feels like a decomposing corpse film and Luca feels like a early decline film

Pixar should stop making movies, haven’t made a great one since coco.

>>148993445
I want her.
>>148993894
Coco was shit.

>>148993390
fr fr no cap?

>>148993445
I miss her so bad

>>148993729
>unloved
He was what made the movie work and after Ramis took away all the funny army man stuff from his character, he gave Zeddemore the best, the most quoted line in the movie.

>>148993340
TS3 deserves to be considered the cap of the golden age. Among the decline movies, MU and Coco are great. Cars 3 is alright too. The decomposing corpse era is depressing as hell. Just have to remember that a studio is only as good as its staff. All the greats eventually left the company for DAS and other studios, thus muddying the waters and blurring Pixar's identity.
Still, Luca was nice and Onward and Soul had good ideas.
Honestly, Win or Lose was so fucking good, they should move fully into episodic TV animation.

>>148993588
Turning Red 2 would be about the challenges of being a teen single mom given how horny Mei Lee and her friends were in the first movie.

>>148994083
I have just the place for Abby

>the plot and the villain of TS5 is PHONE BAD
Bravo, Pixar.

>>148993332 (OP)
I hope they smash that fucking thing yo bits. I fucking despise how braindead zoomers and alphies dont value physical real toys anymore and only want to play with virtual slop
>>148993390
No you did nkt

Didn't Bonnie already have a computer?

>>148993332 (OP)
how does the buzz army tie into this?

>>148993390
>I grew up with a iPad
have some shame man, I wouldn’t admit that

>>148993340
After TS3, but I came back for Incredibles 2 and then left immediately after.

>>148994364
They uh….have bluetooth and um….
Anon, this is hard, but we NEED to have Buzz thinking he’s a space man on this movie somehow

>>148993340
Hey.
Elemental and Luca were actually pretty good.

>>148993382
If they ever make a Wreck-It Ralph 3 and they have a scene where M. Bison exits from a restroom, maybe with some toilet paper stuck to his boot, everyone here would be able to hear my elated squealing.

>>148994364
They were discarded since no one buys toys anymore? It could tie well with the first two movies, when the cowboy toys got displaced by the space ones, I doubt it will good, sadly

>>148993519
>>148993468
This

>>148993404
They found and bought another Woody

>It's ANOTHER "Toys have to come to terms with the fact that they won't be played with forever" plot
>For like the third time in a row
My God this is just sad

>>148993396
>Woody is there
I'm sorry? What the fuck?

>>148993340
IMO Toy Story 3 was the final movie of the golden age, it played out like a perfect finale for Pixar.

It’s just that it unfortunately lead Pixar to milk the shit out of sequels. The drop in quality from Toy Story 3 to Cars 2 is jarring.

Honestly I kinda stopped watching all of Pixar’s theatrical releases after Toy Story 4, though I did see Onward and Luca when they aired on TV and I did see Inside Out 2 in theaters. None of those films are bad but they’re nowhere near the quality of golden age Pixar. The only post-golden age movie that feels like a golden age Pixar film for me is Coco.

>>148993340
UP was the beginning of the
decline era though.

>>148994997
You didn't think he wouldn't come back, did you?

>>148993332 (OP)
Honestly, Toy Story 5 should touch on those kinds of YouTube channels where autists film videos of themselves playing with their toys, like "plushtubers" or whatever they’re called.

Like imagine a plot where Woody gets sold to a someone who’s like the Toy Story universe’s equivalent to SuperMarioLogan, being played with just so the YouTuber could get the almighty dollar.

>>148995281
Don't give them ideas, puss face.

>>148993332 (OP)
Am I missing something? Why are they so focused on letting people know Jessie's VA is returning specifically? Did something happen? OP even hyperfocuses on wanting to prove that her VA is back for some reason. What happened?

>>148995335
Because the article is specifically about Joan Cusack revealing details about the movie, numbnuts.

>>148995291
The good news is any jokes they could do about the current state of the toy market were already done in the second movie.
20 fucking years ago.
You know, maybe that's a sign society should have killed geek culture in its tracks.

>>148993340
The Incredibles was their last GREAT movie.

Cars, Ratatouille and Wall-E were good.

UP and Toy Story 3 were the last decent movies

Everything after that has been mediocre-bad

>>148995273
>The whole point of TS4 was to drop Woody and say goodbye
>he's back with the group in 5
WHAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT THEN

>>148995579
I like to imagine Woody walking through the front door in the first 5 minutes like a sitcom dad.

>>148995361
>Pixar Gives First Look
>Pixar's panel has just happened at Annecy
>Pete Doctor confirmed that Joan Cusack is reprising her role
>Source is all over social media but a trade that mentions Joan Cusack is Variety.
Sorry for not knowing that she was somehow the main speaker?

>>148993340
For me, it was after Wall-E. Once Toy Story 3 came out, I knew they were running outbof ideas.

>>148993332 (OP)
This is hard to describe but I've never really appreciated "Toy Story" as a name before. Like using "story" in the name of a kid's movie is neat to me, it sounds... refined? Just referring to something in its title as a "story", I like that. Toy Story is something you hear so many times and you don't think about it, it's just words. I wonder if anyone will get what I mean by any of this. I just want stuff that invokes that feeling again but I don't even know what the feeling is that comes from using "Story" in a kids movie title. It just feels like the kind of thing we moved away from or something.

>>148995281
holy shit anon is this cute mario bros? holy fuck

>>148995281
um, anon? *gulp* is that... cute mario bros?
also pretty sure that guy destroyed an expensive flat screen tv just for a dumb toy video and many people gave him shit for it. imagine that being the modern day Sid and how many people pay him money to do it

>>148995825
No it’s SuperMarioLogan, the other popular Mario plush channel, this epic legend:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DJfmbJQ9qog&pp=ygUZU21sIGplZmZ5IHdoYXRzIHVwIG5pZ2dlcg%3D%3D

>>148995281
It must suck being this guy in the Toy Story universe since he literally has to be locked in a safe after filming.

>>148995898
If the first Toy Story took place today Sid would be an autistic manchild like Jaxen Ross who has a bizarre hatred towards children’s toys and smash them on camera for YT bucks.

Honestly Toy Story 5 should touch on this, show the toys watching an autistic video of their kind getting destroyed like this, basically their equivalent to watching LiveLeak.

>>148995966
what, why in a safe?

>>148993340
>The Golden Age
I've seen every film on this list at least once, some more than that.
>The Decline
I've seen Toy Story 3, Monsters University, Inside Out, Finding Dory, Coco, and Incredibles 2. Outside of TS3 and MU I've only seen each of those films once.
>The Decomposing Corpe
I've seen two films (Onward and Soul, three if we count Inside Out 2) but nothing else in that list and only once.

>>148993340
no fucking way onward was pixar holy shit

>>148993575
What if Italians had feelings

I like to think Woody leaving in TS4 was Pixar telling Massa Iger "We're done here, we don't want to make another one"
Clearly it didn't work
>>148995966
Are puppets alive in the Toy Story universe? The dummy in the last one was, but he was clearly a toy, puppets made to entertain others are more tools or props than toys

>>148993332 (OP)
How exciting.

>>148996117
Cause Logan REALLY cares about the quality of the Jeffy puppet, unlike other puppets used by SuperMarioLogan which were bought from stores, the Jeffy puppet was something custom made and delivered to him. This means that it can’t be perfectly remade, he has a couple of "stunt double" Jeffy puppets (substitute puppets he uses when filming scenes that could potentially damage said puppet, such as putting a puppet in water) that all look of off.

To make sure nothing bad happens to the Jeffy puppet, he has to lock it in a safe. Just incase some turbo ween decided to break into the SML house and steal it. To Logan the Jeffy puppet is as valuable as a bar of gold.

Its funny cause he’s used the same puppet since 2016 and its clear that he’s stretched it out a bit from its constant use, his gums are sticking out now.

What the fuck are you retards even talking about?

>>148996320
I mean there was a brief mention of a garden gnome in Toy Story 2 (Ham communicates with an off-screen gnome via Morse code), implying that garden ornaments are also alive. Woody also mentions in Toy Story 3 how the Christmas decorations in the attic are fun to hang out with, implying decorations are alive as well. It’s pretty safe to assume puppets come to life in this universe.

I mean the SML puppets would defo come to life since they’re literally being sold as toys.

>>148996454
GET EDUCATED ON SUPERMARIOLOGAN BITCH

>>148996474
>Woody also mentions in Toy Story 3 how the Christmas decorations in the attic are fun to hang out with, implying decorations are alive as well.
Well fuck that only raises more questions
Toy Story 2 has that scene where Woody's fucking around with Al's collection, the yo-yo, bubblemaker and ball toss Woody are the closest to toys and not tools like the bank, thermos, guitar, etc, nor novelties like the rest of the shit, and they don't show any sign of life. But if ornaments are alive I don't know anymore.

>>148993340

Saw all of the Golden Age when they came out except A Bug's Life.

Saw every Decline film except Cars 3.

Haven't got around to watching Lightyear or Elementals yet though I caught the previous three during their limited theater releases and saw Onward right before theaters shut down in 2020.

>>148996619
Another question I have about the universe is:

Do toys have to have faces or resemble living things to come to life? Stuff like playing cards and balls aren’t alive yet the Speak & Spell and Etch-a-Sketch are, so what does a toy have to qualify for to come to life? In Toy Story 3 at sunnyside when Lotso shows the toys around we can see some faceless cars driving in the background, and in the short Partysaurus Rex we can briefly see that rubix cubes and toy tractors are alive as well.

So why the fuck weren’t the Woody’s roundup merch alive?

>>148996731
I assume shit like the "Snake in my Boot" or whatever it's called are too simple and unplayable to be considered anything beyond novelties
Kids play with Etch a Sketches, toy cars, Rubix cubes, army men, etc, stuff like hockey pucks are played with in sports, but I suppose some shit is too simple

>>148996857
I mean even the "some toys are too simple and cheap to come to life" dosent make sense, like the Woody’s roundup merch are basically on the same tier as McDonalds toys, and there was an entire Pixar short that confirms that fast food toys do in fact come to life.

>>148993340
Of the newer films they made, Brave, Coco, and Onward were alright.

how do custom toys work in TS? Like, say an action figure customizer mixing parts from 3 existing figures into a new one, what does that result in? A new Frankenstein's Monster of a toy or are the old toy personalities still there?

>>148993332 (OP)
Why would a little girl want a buzz lightyear action figure. No I'm serious. Give me one good reason

>>148993340

Finding Nemo (No outtakes, no soul)

>>148993340
I watched TS3 and Brave, and those made me stop caring. This picture really is accurate.

>>148997036
Would modifying a toy like this basically be their equivalent to plastic surgery?

>>148993340
>golden age
I never actually watched a bug's life. Not the full thing, at least. Everything else is pretty kino (yes even cars), even though I must admit I'm not as much of a fan of ratatouille or UP as most people are.
>decline
Never watched cars 2, brave, the good dinosaur, or cars 3. Finding dory and the incredibles 2 were disappointing. Coco was ok but I didn't care for it, and I've always liked toy story 3 and MU.
>coprse
The only ones I've watched are elemental and soul. I liked both (soul more than the other one), but they're not precisely gems, you can easily forget about them.

So judging only by the movies I've watched, I'd say I like the decaying corpse more than the decline, even if just barely. At least the corpse only has toy story as its diseased milking cow, whereas the decline had to shit all over the incredibles and finding nemo which are probably my all time favorites. Also at some point it just gets hard (for me) to separate where pixar ends and disney starts. I was surprised not to find moana, encanto and whatnot on the list but I guess they're not pixar movies. Where does inside out 2 fall then?

>>148997059
I can see it if Bonnie goes through one of those "QuIrKy" tumblr teen phases where she starts dying her hair, putting Steven Universe and Digital Circus pins on her backpack, dressing up in some aesthetic "core" shit, and starts writing autistic fanfictions.

You wanna know why? Because those kinds of teens LOVE collecting toys to decorate their rooms. Heck, she might even see Buzz Lightyear as her tumblr sexyman, autistic fixations on certain characters are too normalized in our current society, it’s a problem.

>>148993340
I watched every movie up to Coco. After Coco I stopped watching TV and going to teathers altogether. I may watch Luca and Turning Red one day to understand their associated shitposts, but nothing else seems to be worth watching.

>>148993445
Whatever happened to these sex dolls?

>>148993332 (OP)
>As we know, it'll be about technology coming into Bonnie's life and our beloved toys coming to terms with that

I predict military drones, robotic butlers, vr helmets, social media, videocalls, iphone, because EVERY movie and cartoon have the same idea

>>148997367
The pokemon corner looks so happy when compared to the rest, that fat Pikachu in the back looks so satisfied.

>>148993468
I don't think that toys are obsolete, but I believe they've become a "toddler thing", whereas they were always a kid thing. If that makes sense.

Like I've seen the way kids of friends and relatives act when they take them along and I've determined that
>toddler (2 to 6): toy and digital alike, as long as shiny and colorful doesn't matter
>kid (7 to 13): physical toy is baby shit, full switch to digital, but mostly phone games and streamers (they outgrow baby shark)
>teen (13+): like kid range, but more focus on social media and "mature" shit, more insufferable
So kids today are the teens of the 80s, and teens are kinda like the young adults you used to find wageslaving at the gas station in the 90s

>>148993396
Woody and Jessie are 70-years-old (they were made in 1950s)

>>148993468
No every toy is a cheapo Funko. Good quality atoys re over $40 USD and extreme high quality figures of Otaku Mode are $100

>>148997059
Sisters will very often steal their brothers action figures to act as the 'boyfriend' to their dolls or to be there for whatever scene they're making
>>148993744
It's just become a situation where everyone on the street blames the parents but for some reason, society isn't allowed to have a discussion about it.

>>148993340
TS3. though i did watch brave, inside out, incredibles 2, and turning red, but i did not care for a single one of them. i'd say UP should be at the beginning of the decline though, i still like both it and TS3, but you can already see the cracks forming in both of those.

>>148993588

Toy Story's like, top 5 fictional stories of "just don't think about it". Which I know is hard because of the fourth movie that casts a giant fucking spotlight on that question and then resolves it with a joke answer in the post-credits scene, but that's also one of the many reasons to hate that movie.

>>148993423
You're not missing anything.

>>148993340
Right after Incredibles 2, though I have seen Turning Red once

>>148997542
surprising as it might sound, it turns out that having a 6 ft slab of silicone that you have to hide in your cellar like a dead body every time you have company over and is a seven hour job to clean every time you jerk off with it isn't terribly convenient or worth the three-to-four-figure pricetag

I just realized something, how the actual fuck is Toy Story 5 gonna utilize all the characters?

The first Toy Story had 2 main toys in the cast (Woody and Buzz), and 4 major toys (Potato Head, Hamm, Rex, and Slinky) which would appear in the next films, that’s 7 characters to work with, also including Mrs. Potato Head who gets introduced at the end of the film.

Toy Story 2 added Jessie, Bullseye, and the three little green men to the main cast, adding up to 10 main characters. (the little green men grouped together as one due to them basically being the same) All these characters get to play a role in Toy Story 3 and are utilized well in that film.

Then Toy Story 3 added Pricklepants, Trixie, Dolly, and Buttercup, that’s 14 MAIN CHARACTERS NOW, and most of them were sidelined and barely did anything in Toy Story 4. Now we have Forky in the main cast, and seeing that Woody has returned it’s safe to assume the lost toys (Duke, Ducky, Bunny, Bo) will return as well, giving as a cast of 19 MAJOR CHARACTERS.

The film barely utilized the whole cast in TS4, a film thats supposed to have 19 major characters who are all supposed to play a role in the story is destined to implode.

>>148993332 (OP)
It's gonna be about coexistence. They'll probably come to the conclusion that Skylanders/Disney Infinity had it right with toys being integrated with technology. It doesn't really work because those figurines were for collecting and gameplay, not physical play.

I honestly prefer technology over toys because technology is limitless. There's plenty of dress-up games to play with far more variety than any outfit set. Toys are great for tactile pleasure, but they're a waste of resources. Technology is cheaper and is more economic time-wise.

>>148999188
Bitch Skylanders and Disney Infinity happened more than ten years ago, that whole toys-to-life fad died in 2016.

>>148993340
>Toy Story 3 in the Decline
That was their last good movie, Cars 3 was the beginning of the end

>>148999232
I know. Same with internet integration like with Webkinz. I can't really think of anything today that integrates technology with toys. Labo didn't do super well.

>>148999376
I mean Amiibo is the one toys-to-life thing that’s still around, but that’s mostly because people just wanna collect figures of their favorite Nintendo characters rather than use them for Gameplay-purposes.

>>148993340
I only went and saw Toy Story in theaters. I never watched anything else myself.
Bug's Life was shown in school one day, Incredibles, Nemo. I saw Cars for some reason I forgot how/where.

>>148993340
I stopped at Inside Out, but realized the PIXAR I knew was dead with Turning Red.

On that note, why on earth would they make a movie about periods? It seems very inappropriate subject matter for the audience and absolutely not something you'd see during the golden age.

>>148993340
If I had to pinpoint it probably Brave

>>148999477
Collecting is big right now. Toy Story, oddly, hasn't directly commented on collecting. Al only collected for the payout, not for the inherent sense of fulfillment. I was going to say they could do a story about a collector letting children play with the toys, but that's what The Lego Movie was about and they did a fantastic job telling that story.

>>148998956
they aren't

They covered the idea of collecting in TS2 when they talked about being a museum and what that kind of life is like. A toy isn't fulfilling it's purpose if it's behind glass, toys are meant to form attachments, etc. Pete was also driven crazy from never being taken out of the box. I can't imagine what else they could explore with that concept other than gags, like the Funko Pops learned to leave their box when the owner is gone and go nuts. But that's also just a rehash of a scene from TS2 when they're in the toy store.

>>148999909
John Lasseter is a huge toy collector, in fact, that’s what inspired Al in Toy Story 2, IIRC he thought "man it must be suck to be a toy owned by a toy collector that never gets played with"

I honestly I’m more interested what’s it’s like to be a toy with a "quirky" womanchild owner who decorates her room like this:>>148997367

Amazing how they didn't manage to make a single spectacular film after Toy Story 3. Sure, Inside Out and Cars 3 were decent, and you could make an argument for Brave and Monsters University, but everything else ranges from either boring or trash.
If you told me twenty years ago that Pixar was gonna go to shit like so many other entertainment companies were at the time, I wouldn't have believed you. I guess nobody and nothing is immune to entropy.

What an awful design for a villian. Shes going to just be laying around and not moving much.

Girls like to play with action figures like boys and also will use the male figures as boyfriends for their female toys.

Interesting. Funny how something so simple in your life can inspire a story.

>>148993340
Inside Out. Cars 3 and Toy Story 4 were the dead cat bounce.

>>148998202
There has to be some toy autist out there that compared all of the Buzz Lightyear iterations and found which one is most accurate right?

Is this the same artist who drew Pearl saying to Amy "I *TOLERATE* you" with gritted teeth and a look of pure hatred

>>148993340
I think I'm more forgiving than most anons here, I actually liked Soul and Luca, and I think Onward could have been great too with a less boring setting. Turning Red was the one that made me decide I was going to stop going to new Pixar movies

>>148997036
>how do custom toys work in TS? Like, say an action figure customizer mixing parts from 3 existing figures into a new one, what does that result in? A new Frankenstein's Monster of a toy or are the old toy personalities still there?
That was covered in the first movie. Sid's toys are all Frankenstein creations. But to Woody's surprise they still act normal.

>>149001341

Bonnie has other toys. Expect those to be moving her and propping her up.

>>149000178
The issue with Funko Pops as toys is that there's no moving parts. They can't move their arms or legs. They're also probably photosensitive given their beady eyes.
>>149001341
>Girls like to play with action figures like boys and also will use the male figures as boyfriends for their female toys.
If you have a daughter, please buy her at least one human male action figure or doll. I had to officiate a lesbian Barbie wedding. Like hell I was going to have Barbie marry a Beanie Baby- that's beastiality.

>>149002332
They reference Nintendo's classic consoles a few times so they know they exist. But yeah, they still haven't done anything serious with the idea yet like I suggested >>148993382

>>148993340
After Toy Story 3, guess I picked a good place to stop, I know some people like a few of the later movies but they just don't have any appeal to me at all

>>149002332
They're just another form of amusement they can participate in, like how Hamm is adept at channel surfing (VGH, zoomers will never know) and how Rex was obsessed with trying to beat Zurg for the whole second film.

Lack of articulation is not an actual problem for living toys in the setting. I'm pretty sure Bo is a porcelain figurine, but even if not the army men prove it, they only have trouble walking because of the bases permanently attached to their feet.

I hope that the story of Toy Story 5 has the toys desperately attempt to get humans to play with them and they FAIL. I'm so tired of how in Toy Story movies they always pretend that kids give a fuck about toys, Andy had a Super Nintendo in Toy Story 2 needless to say arcades existed in the first Toy Story as well during Pizza Planet's segment.

The point I'm getting at is that as the years go by and Andy got older kids would not give a fuck about toys. And yet the writing of the Toy Story movies loves to pretend that kids want to play with toys regardless of era they live in. Bullshit. Kids love gaming, tablets, streaming, Tik Tok, etc. Toys are obsolete.

Realistically speaking Toy Story 3 would have ended with Andy being unable to give away his old toys which even he called in the intro of the film as "No one wants old toys they're junk!" And because no one would take them Andy would have no choice but to simply throw them out with the trash or maybe recycle bins. That would be a realistic ending to Toy Story none of this nonsense where the toys are magically accepted and beloved by children of new generations.

>>149002332
Its because Toy Story movies are written to pretend that gaming has NOT affected the entertainment industry in this universe. I find it hilarious the first Toy Story movie was released on the same year as the first Sony Playstation which made console gaming go 3D which was a BIGGER deal than CG animation itself.

The only time the writers at Pixar begrudgingly admitted that gaming took kids away from toys was the animated short about those dinosaur toys who were never played with because their owner was a boy obsessed with video games VR in particular. The short ends with the boy inexplicably loving his dinosaur toys and stop playing video games.....which is bullshit.

The level of delusion that Pixar uses borders on mental illness to pretend toys are still a big impact in a kid's life. This is why I hope Toy Story 5 bombs.

>>149002460
Except video games give you more interactivity and fun times. Toys you are limited by what you are given physically and your imagination. So toys are a rip off unless its something flexible like Legos.

You also have to remember that with all the talk about problems caused by plastics companies are discouraged from making toys as well. It's not simply that kids won't want toys its also bad for the ecosystem because eventually most toys even if bought are THROWN AWAY.

>>148993382
Video games aren't considered toys except by ignorant faggots. Old games like Wolfenstein or Doom alone destroy the argument. And then you have early violent games like Mortal Kombat which got the Retarded American Government involved. So no gaming as much as idiots love to force it aren't kid's toys.

Gaming is considered a medium where many types of rated material can be made like movies especially even more nowadays. There's gaming properties for all age ranges. And its been this way from the beginning of the industry.

>>148998956
>The film barely utilized the whole cast in TS4
Most of Buzz's writing devolved into him being a literal retard and using his pre-installed catchphrases as his "conscience" to help him know what to do, which is insanely bad. Just made even Buzz look like a retarded guy while playing up how badass Bo Peep was, and the guy was barely part of that side of the story, but ALL the guys were morons.

>>148993519
My nieces absolutely love dolls and so did my zoomer girlfriend who is almost half my age. My nephew likes action figures but he's also a bit too rough with them and has the propensity to break them in a matter of hours, which is why his parents almost exclusively get him those cheap Mr Beast Stretch Armstrong knock offs.
If kids still have an active imagination they will enjoy the same type of toys we did. Polly Pocket, Mighty Max, Hot Wheels... The problem is that the modern world is very hostile towards those with wonder, awe and imagination.

>>149002071
Yes. and much like Woody the vast majority are inaccurate.

I'd watch Pixar films on release, it was a summer ritual that my grandparents started when I was young. I skipped Cars 2 because it looked legitimately bad, but I really stopped wanting to go period after the combo of Inside Out being incredibly dull and the Good Dinosaur being objectively terrible.

Saw Finding Dory, Coco, and Incredibles 2 on Disney+ and only Coco was worth watching. Swore off watching a movie from them until they released something that at least was Coco-tier, never happened again.

>>148996731
Neo-animism.
Toys acquire collective souls based on the feelings and desires people project on them.

>>148997059
My sister used to steal my OG Electronic Buzz Lightyear to be the boyfriend for her dolls.
When my parents got her a Ken doll she said he was lame and preferred Buzz.

>>148993340
I stopped watching them when I just got sick and tired of looking at computer-generated imagery. Something new, please.

>>148999188

So is imagination. It's a shame you lack one.

My perpetually single and overly flirty wine aunt collects those types of porcelain figurines. They do have joints and some minimal degree of articulation, but it's mostly designed to make dressing them easier and not to pose them.

>>148993332 (OP)
They should've made Woody the main villain.

>>149004911
Is it the tablet that’s alive or the casing?

Should also note that Robot Chicken already covered the whole "toys vs. technology" thing

>>149004867
I mean a lot of people state that "owners playing with toys brings them to life" but even that is bullshit. The aliens in the claw machine were alive despite never being played with, the Barbies in Als Toy Barn are alive despite never being played with, ffs there’s an entire tv special where a large group of Battlesaurs don’t even realize that they’re toys because they’ve never been opened or played with.
>>149004576
On a side note I find it funny how the TV specials like Toy Story of Terror and That Time Forgot have a better grasp on Buzz’s character than the fourth main installment of the damn series.

>>149005012
That's why I said collective souls and the feelings projected onto them.
Buzz Lightyear exists as a sort of egregore, a thoughtform that dictates how Buzz Lightyear is meant to act according to what the collective consciousness defines as "Buzz Lightyear, Space Ranger." "Our" Buzz however developed its own separate soul and individuality due to things like the love of his owner and the friendship with other toys.
Barbies are in the same position. The ones in the store have a basic collective soul based on what the people think a Barbie is. Same for the aliens in the claw machine.
The Battlesaurs are in an interesting position where they still have traces of this collective soul, but are self-aware enough to understand they're toys and that their purpose is to play.

One thing I’m curious about these films is the timeline, it’s obvious that the first three installments took place the years they were released, but then Toy Story 4 released and it got confusing, like it seems to be a year after TS3, does the film take place in 2011? Now the toys are against MODERN technology, a big problem in our CURRENT year, yet Bonnie’s still a child and the films will STILL take place in the previous decade somehow?

Small complaint but I miss when these films took place the years they were released, Bonnie was 4 years old when Toy Story 3 was released, meaning that she’d be 18-19 years old now. There’s plenty of interesting concepts to explore with a teenage Bonnie.

Maybe TOY STORY 5 will appeal to you /co/tard gooners if there was constant toy titties in it, boobies are what you gooners care about seeing all the gooning threads on this board.

Here’s Woodys new redesign for Toy Story 5 made to appeal to /co/ gooners, and is guaranteed to give YOU a Woody.

>>149005140
The Incredibles 2 is one of those films where you have a fun time first watching in the theater but then when you get home and think about it more you realize how mid it really was.

I mean it’s not Toy Story 4 level bad there are some good elements in it like the action sequences, but the film is missing the mature edge that the first one had.

I mean we know it’s gonna be better than Incredibles 3 since Brad Bird isn’t even returning to direct for that one.

>>149005156
>The Incredibles 2 is one of those films where you have a fun time first watching in the theater but then when you get home and think about it more you realize how mid it really was.
I don't turn my brain off while watching movies, so I knew it was retarded before the credits even rolled.

>>149005173
The worst part of the Incredibles 2 had to be the shitty twist villain, like Pixar has had some actual good twist villains like Lotso, Watternoose, and Ernesto, but Screenslaver was a 2010’s Disney-tier twist villain

Technically wouldn't anime figurines be fulfilling their purpose since they are made to be on a shelf (or in a jar) and admired/loved? Actually, wouldn't an anime figurine have getting hotglued?

>The Golden Age
Watched everything, was always excited for a new one. The sole disappointment in Cars was just a minor upset.

>The Decline
Watched and enjoyed Toy Story 3, skipped Cars 2 and Brave, watched Monster University and Inside Out, skipped The Good Dinosaur, watched Finding Dory, skipped Cars 3 and Coco, watched Incredibles 2.

This was the point where a combination of ageing and the quality dip resulted in me losing interest.

>The Decomposing Corpse
Watched and disliked Toy Story 4, Onward and Soul, skipped Luca, Turning Red and Lightyear, watched and (surprisingly) enjoyed Elemental.

I stopped after u.p and dodged a bullet apperantly. Were inside out and coco anygood?

Anon, I'm a 26 year old zoomer and the notion that zoomers never played with toys is completely inaccurate. We grew up when the Star Wars prequels were going on, by the time revenge of the sith came out we had all bought plastic lightsabers and were constantly running around and being public menaces with them. The Force Action Light Up lightsaber was our Sock'em Boppers.
Hell, even when we were getting more into video games, we were so into those games that we had increased toy merchandise and younger zoomers have even more than us.
Like, back when I was growing up there was like a handful of Mario action figures at Toys R Us and some Halo merchandise.
Now it's like, you have an entire aisle of video game licensed toys and while a lot are collectors, some are pure toys. I had to make my dad go on Ebay to get my Link costume while Gen Alpha has fucking Fortnite based nerf guns.

>>149004587
i heard somewhere it's physically impossible to have a buzz lightyear toy that both has extendable wings and the KARATE CHOP ACTION, but don't quote me on that

>>149002071
IIRC the most movie accurate toys are the "signature collection" ones, they even having boxing that gives off the illusion of them being in-universe merch.

One thing I noticed though is that all irl Woody dolls have an open mouth while the one in the film has a closed mouth, so no Woody is completely movie-accurate.

>>148993340
Toy Story 3 was the last one I genuinely enjoyed. Brave and Elemental are the only ones I've skipped after that, but the rest of the films have never gripped me the way everything pre-Cars 2 did. I will never understand the praise for stuff like Inside Out and Coco, I found those films boring as fuck.

>>148993382
>Crossover slop
Would be the nail in the coffin.

>>148998956
You forgot about the Peas-in-the-Pod, though to be fair so did Pixar, like I forget did these guys even appear in the fourth film? I can recall the rest of Bonnies toys in the room and RV scenes but not these guys.
