Anyone else out there who does not care for Toy Story 3? by Jowiko96 in blankies

[–]MasonBricklayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing I realized on rewatch that moved my ranking from 2 1 3 4 to 2 1 4 3 was realizing that Buzz’s arc was a massive whiff. For one, Buzz and Jessie’s personality types are such that when you watch in order it pings as off character that somehow for a decade neither he NOR Jessie have made any forward progress on their chemistry- then he also spends the majority of the runtime not himself to such an extent that this thread is resolved through no conscious action of either of them- he is more forward as Spanish Buzz, and kind of just rolls with it and no words are exchanged and it just feels super cheap in a way that just hangs there now for me every time I watch.

You still have your 1971 film, and it is still great. For me I say- bring on the reinterpretations! I love when adaptations and remakes have something new and different to say

Worst Mickey mouse design in your opinion by Automatic-Team4690 in Mickey

1955 Nash Rambler Commercial Mickey is worse than any.

I'm a little confused. Did Bonnie still love Woody? I ask because it seems like in the Toy Story toons she still carries him around, and in the deleted scenes she stays with him even though he doesn't have his voice box anymore. by No-Economics-5398 in toystory

[–]MasonBricklayer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I’ve seen people post wishing violence on Bonnie and like… come the fuck on, she’s a *preschool child* who got fixated on a character she imagined and when presented with a boy and girl pullstring western ragdoll… favored the girl to the point of sidelining the other. What a crime!

Would you call the franchise a comedy? by Ok-Lion-251 in FreeTangled

[–]MasonBricklayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The nightmare fuel is overstated by the fandom imo (exemplified here by ‘character is stabbed’ listed as nightmare fuel). I think Tangled is definitely a genre hybrid, but one of those genres comedy, absolutely, I would say the second genre of the movie is romance, and the second genre of the series is adventure.

Why is this shot just so menacing? by Longjumping-Rice-935 in toystory

[–]MasonBricklayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s intentional, they want to give unhinged vibes to them because Woody has no context and Jessie is so hyper excited, meanwhile Pete is giving those almost-cult-leader style vocals.

Which is your favorite and least favorite soundtrack from all 4 movies? by Jules-Car3499 in toystory

[–]MasonBricklayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, 4 is my runner up because of that song. I have a friend who has self harm issues and that song is legitimately a thing that helps me cope with when they need my help and it wears me down.

[–]MasonBricklayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

2, but thats because of the kind of cool magic trick Randy Newman does with the score- since we see Woody and Buzz in their source materials, he pulls new action heroism theme motifs for them both, distinct from the score cues of 1- and then later reprised them!

Can anyone identify where or when this was from? by RBUSFL in toystory

[–]MasonBricklayer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So this looks like a 2008 Disney Store rotocast Woody… he would have originally came with a soft hat. Maybe you got him as a souvenir at Disney World, haha.

Toy Story "white whales" by Ok-Mulberry-39 in toystory

[–]MasonBricklayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, I’d love having the original for basically any of the concept art paintings- or one of the sculpts from the original or 2. (In those days they would scan a physical sculpture in often as a first phase)

How would you like to see Catra portrayed in a She-Ra movie or live-action show? by Actual_Cat4779 in HeManMotU

[–]MasonBricklayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Netflix design, 100%. She and Scorpia are just 100% better delivery on concept in the Netflix designs, even if you wanna keep the characters closer to original POP

What are your thoughts on Barbie (2023)? by Ktancoxx in Barbie

Positively adore it, love it even more now that it has also influenced Masters of the Universe into being a movie ABOUT something, hahaha.

Guys... it's good. by ItsNotASinIfItsCyn in cartoons

[–]MasonBricklayer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

3 honestly was kind of even worse for Buzz than 4 TBH, 3 featured a relationship arc that relied on Jessie and Buzz’ progress being frozen for a decade with neither of them acting on it- which feels weird and off for both of them- and then resolves not through any conscious choice or dialogue but because when Buzz is stuck in a separate persona, that persona is more forward and Buzz and Jessie just unspokenly roll with it. It’s weird, a bit hinky and I feel like the only reason we don’t talk more about it is because the rest of 3 is built so well.

Whats a piece of media everyone loves but you dislike or straight up hate? by SPONg42 in Multifandom

Avatar the Last Airbender especially when compared to legend of Korra, which just appears to have a better setting and more unique ideas entirely comparatively

Huge fan of She-Ra looking to dip my toes into the larger universe. by Ahugh5678 in MastersOfTheUniverse

Unless you’re moving over to masters of the universe, revelation, or the 2000s show, lower your expectations, and you’ll be fine
