Latest / Pete and Hannah’s Watchlist: / AFI Top 100 Movie 99 Toy Story
Transcript
- 0:00Hello to Pete and Hannah's watch list. I am your host Pete Mitchell. I'm here with my great co-host Hannah.
- 0:09How are we doing?
- 0:11Hannah, today we are here for the AFI Top 100 show.
- 0:15Once again.
- 0:16It's movie number 99 and the movie that we are going to review today is...
- 0:21Toy Story.
- 0:23Yes, it is from 1995 and it's movie number 99. I wasn't on the original list.
- 0:31And have you seen this beforehand?
- 0:34Yeah, I think this one is safe to say if you have a child or this is one of the movies that plays all the time.
- 0:41Yeah, definitely.
- 0:42I would definitely say this is definitely one of... just in that whole... everyone could enjoy it. Even as a family, parents would enjoy it with their kids and stuff.
- 0:53100%. I was a teenager when this movie came out so I'm not really the right audience but I went and saw it at the movies.
- 1:01I took my younger brother. He was 10 years old at the time and we saw this a few times and then...
- 1:08It became his identity.
- 1:10We had videotape and then you watch it every night and I end up moving out of that room because I could not deal with it anymore.
- 1:21Great times.
- 1:23The elevator pitch for anyone that hasn't seen Toy Story.
- 1:27We follow Andy's toys as they come to life but their life is turned upside down when a new toy arrives.
- 1:34Yeah.
- 1:35The Makers Studio was Pixar.
- 1:38Oh, Pixar.
- 1:39Now Pixar at the time was a studio that hadn't made a feature film.
- 1:46Yeah, they're the new kids in the block.
- 1:47And they teamed up with Disney and Disney was the backer for this movie. They gave them a budget of $30 million.
- 1:54Pixar started its life with Lucas Films.
- 1:57Yes.
- 1:58So it was a subsidiary of them.
- 2:00And then Steve Jobs was a big backer and he ended up becoming CEO and chairman of Pixar.
- 2:10And then he helped do the deal with Disney.
- 2:12And it was a three-pitcher deal.
- 2:14So this is the first of the three pitches they did.
- 2:18Pixar was later bought by Disney for $6.7 billion in 2006.
- 2:24The technology was the first type of done short movies but had never done a full...
- 2:29Yes, 3D was mainly used...
- 2:32Like the only time Disney had ever tried to do it was with both Beauty and the Beast in the ballroom scene and Rescuers, I believe.
- 2:43Rescuers Down Under.
- 2:44Yes.
- 2:45So Pixar was a big component of Rescuers Down Under.
- 2:49Yes.
- 2:50And so using 3D was still very new to the animated scene.
- 2:54The original script was written by Lasseter, also Cohen and Josh Weedon of Buffy fame.
- 3:03And he went to direct Firefly and also the Avengers movies.
- 3:08And his own revengeful death.
- 3:10Lasseter also had an adventure death.
- 3:14Yes, that was well.
- 3:15He was the long time chairman and creative director of Pixar films.
- 3:19And he ended up full...
- 3:24Charges.
- 3:26Yes, yes, yes.
- 3:27Not a great misconduct allegations, I would say.
- 3:31The actors of the movie.
- 3:33So Lasseter, he did also Toy Story 2, Bugs Life, he did the Cars, Cohen and he did Wally, or Lois O'Hara.
- 3:44We know what you're thinking.
- 3:46The actors in the movie. So the main role is played by Tom Hanks.
- 3:51Yes.
- 3:52And Tom Hanks, you know, he was on a heater run at this stage.
- 3:55Oh, he is at his peak in the 90s.
- 3:58So he'd done movies in the 80s such as Big and The Money Pit.
- 4:03Yes.
- 4:04Also the...
- 4:06Splash.
- 4:07Splash, yes, the mermaid comedy, directed by Ron Howard.
- 4:11In the 90s, he really was on a heater. He did, in the League of their Own, Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Toy Story.
- 4:20Yeah, I mean, yeah, wow. He does his story biggest films.
- 4:24He wasn't the first choice, so, Hennie.
- 4:26The first choice for the top...
- 4:29Woody.
- 4:30Woody was Paul Newman.
- 4:32Oh, interesting. Oh, I guess because of the cowboy aspect.
- 4:35And Paul Newman went on to later star in Cars.
- 4:38Yes.
- 4:39Who is... he is amazing.
- 4:42While filming the other movies, he would film the record buzz...
- 4:51We record Woody scenes.
- 4:52Woody.
- 4:53And in those scenes, when he was doing it in the League of their Own, he was fine.
- 4:56But when he was doing Philadelphia and Forrest Gump, he refused to because it was breaking those characters.
- 5:00Yes. But interesting because...
- 5:02So it took a lot of years to make this film and there was so many different...
- 5:07Yeah.
- 5:08We did that after we got through the cast.
- 5:10We also had Tim Allen.
- 5:12Now, a lot of people were up for the role of Buzz Lightyear.
- 5:15Yeah, I'd guess. It's the hotshot.
- 5:17So the first choice was Billy Crystal.
- 5:20He was called.
- 5:21Okay, yeah, funny guy.
- 5:22And he turned it down because everyone thought that this movie wasn't going to work.
- 5:25Yeah, of course.
- 5:26And so...
- 5:27I missed a lot of the animated... any animated projects.
- 5:30Jim Carrey was also called.
- 5:32Wow.
- 5:33So there was a lot of different calls, but they end up going with Tim Allen, who was at the star.
- 5:37Of Home Improvement Television Star.
- 5:42He went on to do some movies as well.
- 5:44He was also the Scott Calvin out of the Centacles.
- 5:48Yeah, he's one of the most incredible Centacles.
- 5:51Originally, he was doing stand-up.
- 5:53So he was a set-up comedian.
- 5:55Who else was in the cast?
- 5:57We had John Ratzemberger.
- 5:58He was Cliff from Cheers.
- 5:59Yeah.
- 6:00We had Don Rickles, who was a famous stand-up comedian.
- 6:02He was big on the roast.
- 6:04It's a lot of...
- 6:05He was born in 1995, Ann.
- 6:07He also starred in Casino.
- 6:08Oh, really?
- 6:09This one?
- 6:10That is the same year.
- 6:11Any Pots was also in this.
- 6:13And Andy's Mum was played by Laurie Metcalf, who was a star of Roseanne, and also went on to
- 6:21star as Sheldon's Mum in Big Bang Theory.
- 6:25It's funny because Annie Pots played Sheldon's grandmother.
- 6:30And Laurie Metcalf played Sheldon's mum.
- 6:32That is funny.
- 6:33I love that.
- 6:34So some stories at the time.
- 6:36So when they were making this movie, the first cut of this movie, they Disney hated it.
- 6:45And they were going to take the project back.
- 6:47They really hated it.
- 6:49Woody was really snarky.
- 6:51Yes, I've seen these real footage of this.
- 6:54He was...
- 6:55He tormented all the toys, not just Buzz.
- 6:57Yeah, he was a dictator.
- 6:58Yeah, he was not very nice at all.
- 7:01And that's why in the film, he still feels like a dictator.
- 7:05They still got a little bit of that.
- 7:06And then afterwards, they were talking...
- 7:10Like Steve Jobs said, this is not going to work.
- 7:13Disney were going to take the project back over.
- 7:16Pixar were in big trouble.
- 7:17They weren't making money at the time.
- 7:19They needed this project to...
- 7:20They really...
- 7:21Because they were doing commercials and little short films.
- 7:23They needed this to work.
- 7:24So just like Ben Hurd last week, where MGM were throwing all the stuff in,
- 7:29Pixar were doing the exact same with Toy Story.
- 7:31That's what Hollywood does.
- 7:32They throw all the chips on the table and see what works.
- 7:35So they completely changed the story.
- 7:36And then two weeks later, they showed a rough cut to Disney executives.
- 7:39And they gave them to go ahead to finish the movie.
- 7:42Yes, I love it.
- 7:43When they first showed the movie, it was a very secret project.
- 7:48So when they were showing it to test audiences,
- 7:50they were actually telling people that it was Operation Dumbo Drop.
- 7:54Yes, I have heard of that name.
- 7:56Yes.
- 7:57And Operation Dumbo Drop, which is starring Danny Glover,
- 8:00was about dropping an elephant in a war zone.
- 8:06Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:07As a thing.
- 8:08So...
- 8:09Oh, that's interesting.
- 8:10So that was the movie that everyone thought they were turning up to watch.
- 8:13And it was actually Toy Story.
- 8:16So the initial reaction to the film was $353 million worldwide.
- 8:25It was the second highest-grossing movie.
- 8:27Hannah, what do you think the first movie was?
- 8:32What was the first?
- 8:34It was Die Hard with a Vengeance.
- 8:36Simon says himself, John McClane, 30.
- 8:39It's so...
- 8:40Like, what a two-far.
- 8:41I mean, Die Hard with a Vengeance and Toy Story.
- 8:43Critics loved it.
- 8:44It was groundbreaking.
- 8:45It was still provoking great voice work.
- 8:49At the Academy Awards, it won a special achievement award.
- 8:53It was also nominated for Best Original Screenplay.
- 8:57I could totally see it.
- 8:59They didn't have an animated feature.
- 9:01No, that doesn't happen until 2001 or something?
- 9:05It was also nominated for Best Song.
- 9:08Yes.
- 9:09Well, I could get...
- 9:10So Randy Newman, he did the original songs.
- 9:14Yes.
- 9:15He wasn't the first choice.
- 9:16They wanted to go with someone else for the songs.
- 9:19A little bit.
- 9:20John Lester, he pushed really hard for Randy Newman.
- 9:25And Randy Newman's song, You've Got a Friend With Me, is just a real time...
- 9:29It's iconic.
- 9:30I think that even the rest of the soundtrack was filled with his music.
- 9:34It's great.
- 9:35He was a hot favourite going into the Oscars, because it was a long time coming in to get
- 9:40nominated.
- 9:41It's been nominated many times since as well.
- 9:43And he was beaten by...
- 9:45...Pokehauntus.
- 9:46Oh, of course.
- 9:47Colours of the Wind.
- 9:48Colours of the Wind is a brilliant song.
- 9:49But not sure.
- 9:50And Disney were trying to push Pokehauntus, like no man alive.
- 9:55Vanessa Williams, our song that song.
- 9:58Yes.
- 9:59Disney would never let Twister and Win in Pokehauntus, because they put a lot in Pokehauntus.
- 10:05Do you think it should have won for a screenplay?
- 10:09What would it have been up against?
- 10:12As a screenplay, it's actually really funny.
- 10:15And I think what it is, is that the delivery of them is important.
- 10:20Yeah, well, personally, I think it should have won for Best Song.
- 10:27I really do think it should have won for Best Song.
- 10:29I think for Best Song, I understand, but Colours of the Wind is a brilliant song.
- 10:34But if you go from what had a lasting impact, I'd say...
- 10:39How many times have you heard Colours of the Wind?
- 10:42Many times.
- 10:43You're like, you're...
- 10:44You can paint for the Colours of the Wind.
- 10:48You are all the...
- 10:50I love my Disney movies.
- 10:52But I will never go into how much I dislike Pokehauntus slash Pokehauntus 2.
- 10:57Never ever watch Pokehauntus 2.
- 10:59One of the...
- 11:01The person that won Best Rooks Screenplay was Kristen Macquarie.
- 11:05Of course!
- 11:07You feel suspect.
- 11:08Now, I'm watching Suspect.
- 11:10That movie has been cancelled.
- 11:12Yes.
- 11:14I would say Toastery.
- 11:16I'd say Toastery deserved it.
- 11:18The Toastery's writing is a match.
- 11:20I just want to...
- 11:21If we can go into quotes, just how quotable Toastery is.
- 11:25Definitely we'll go into Toastery.
- 11:27Let's keep going on this Oscar theme.
- 11:29Best Picture that year.
- 11:32So these are the nominees.
- 11:34And you tell me that if Toastery should have been nominated.
- 11:37It should have been nominated, right?
- 11:38Braveheart?
- 11:39Of course.
- 11:40Apollo 13.
- 11:41Babe.
- 11:42The Postman.
- 11:43And Sense and Sensibility.
- 11:45Now, I think the Babe...
- 11:47I think Babe has taken...
- 11:49That'll do.
- 11:50That'll do, Pig.
- 11:51That'll do.
- 11:52That has taken Toastery's probably spot there.
- 11:55But you cannot tell me.
- 11:57The Postman or Sense and Sensibility is better than Toastery.
- 12:01What's this?
- 12:02Oh, okay.
- 12:03It's not the best.
- 12:04So if we're doing the Oscars now.
- 12:06Do you think...
- 12:07Oh, Toastery, yeah.
- 12:08100%.
- 12:09I think it probably wins.
- 12:11I don't think it wins.
- 12:12I think they definitely...
- 12:14Like, there's just no chance that with...
- 12:17You don't think it wins?
- 12:18At the moment and this time of the Oscars.
- 12:20They would never choose an animated movie.
- 12:22Like, there's been so many chances where an animated movie could totally get at the spot.
- 12:27They don't even nominate some of them because they just don't believe in them.
- 12:30They definitely copped out and they gave it to a special achievement award for the groundbreaking technology.
- 12:35Well, that's the same with Snow White, so I also got a special achievement award.
- 12:38Even though it's like, which will be mad, this is the first feature length animated movie.
- 12:43Yeah.
- 12:44But, you know, it's a beauty of the beast.
- 12:46Like, got nominated for...
- 12:48Action to the film recently, Rotten Tomatoes, 100% Letterbox has got a 4.1 rating and IMDB has got 8.3.
- 13:00So, really high rated.
- 13:01It's actually higher rated than Ben Hur.
- 13:04Yeah, understandable.
- 13:05Okay, and every week we do a show called Movie News and in that show we do clickbait.
- 13:13Yeah.
- 13:14And we take turns.
- 13:15So, I thought we'd do a take turns on...
- 13:18A hotty-take.
- 13:19Hotty-hot takes for Toy Story.
- 13:21Now, would you like to go first hand?
- 13:23My hotty-hot take?
- 13:24Yep.
- 13:25What's your hotty-hot take?
- 13:26The villain of this story is obviously Woody.
- 13:28Yeah.
- 13:29Like, 100%.
- 13:30100%.
- 13:31Without a doubt.
- 13:32I mean, he is the cause of the problem.
- 13:34Two villains, Sid and Woody.
- 13:35I wouldn't even go...
- 13:36Sid's not a villain.
- 13:37Sid's like the kind of...
- 13:39You always like the bad guy.
- 13:41No, you're welcome.
- 13:42You always like the bad guy.
- 13:43I mean, he can be redeemed.
- 13:44But no, Sid is just like, is a bad seed, obviously.
- 13:47I had that hot take as well.
- 13:49Woody is definitely the bad guy.
- 13:51Woody instilled all of them with this, like, kind of hierarchy that he's cause he's number one toy, he gets to make the decisions.
- 13:58Yeah.
- 13:59And then this new kid comes in, he's favorited, he's new.
- 14:03Humps.
- 14:04And then he is like...
- 14:05Like, he's just helping around.
- 14:07He's like taking on the extra workload, so Woody doesn't have to do it.
- 14:10Woody's like, this ain't happening, brah.
- 14:12And then he almost murders the guy.
- 14:14Yeah.
- 14:15This goes perfectly into my hot take, that this is a buddy cop film.
- 14:19This is Leif the Weapon.
- 14:21Yes.
- 14:22Well, Leif won.
- 14:23Woody is Danny Glover's character, Roger Murto.
- 14:26Yeah.
- 14:27He's too old for this stuff.
- 14:28He's the old guy.
- 14:29And then the new guy comes in with his new gun, the Beretter.
- 14:32And it's rigged.
- 14:34Rigged.
- 14:35Rigged.
- 14:36Rigged.
- 14:37And he has a different idea.
- 14:38Absolutely worth this stuff.
- 14:39He has a different idea of how the system should work.
- 14:41Yeah.
- 14:41And like this movie becomes a buddy cop movie in Toy
- 14:42Where it's like, I'm not a toy, I'm a space ranger.
- 14:46It's really good how this film, not only that, it captures a lot of it, because it's an actual film, not written for kids.
- 14:55It's written by just adults who are just children.
- 14:59Yeah.
- 15:00It has this great, just, you know, taking like adult themes and just making it work.
- 15:06Yeah.
- 15:07And just like not really.
- 15:08This new like iteration of Disney from like Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, a lot of it.
- 15:14The Renaissance, we're talking about.
- 15:16Yeah.
- 15:17They are some of.
- 15:18This is the first Pixar movie, but this is right in that wheelhouse of like both adults and kids.
- 15:22Yeah.
- 15:23They're appealing to both.
- 15:24They are able to appeal to the whole audience that they're going for and Disney struggle with it nowadays with trying to appeal to every market rather than an audience.
- 15:35You got another hot take.
- 15:37What's my another hot take?
- 15:39Do you have one?
- 15:40Another one?
- 15:41I've got a few.
- 15:42I've got a few here.
- 15:43What do you say?
- 15:44Like this, this changed the game animation.
- 15:46So this made it towards a computer sort of place.
- 15:49It's so interesting to watch this film.
- 15:52I thought it had done so well.
- 15:54I thought I thought like I could see how like that was like, oh yeah, you they've cut corners in a sense, but it was because this is 3D animation to really have to do something.
- 16:04I can't do that on any cost anymore.
- 16:05But the way they able to express facial animation, they're still, Disney is still struggling to do that today with some of their live action films.
- 16:14It's ridiculous.
- 16:16My next hot take, my final hot take is this is not the best Pixar movie, but it is the best Toy Story movie.
- 16:32Yes.
- 16:34It's really hard.
- 16:37I think so too.
- 16:39It's the best Toy Story even though I do love three.
- 16:42I think three is such an emotional masterpiece.
- 16:46For those who don't know, Toy Story has had four different movies.
- 16:50Four movies and some spin-offs.
- 16:52Oh, I forget about the prequel.
- 16:55It's like a movie and then it's had the four Toy Story movies.
- 16:58There's a rumored Toy Story 5 as well.
- 17:01Yes.
- 17:02It also had like some cartoons.
- 17:04Spin-offs.
- 17:05It's had little movies.
- 17:06It has like four or five shorts.
- 17:08So you have two which introduces a new character and Woody's past.
- 17:14Three goes into Andy's an adult and then he's the debate of getting rid of the toys.
- 17:23And then the fourth movie is this new kid and she using just like crafting her own toys.
- 17:32Because kids are weird nowadays.
- 17:38They're like cats.
- 17:39They're like, oh my god, it's a box.
- 17:40It's more exciting than the toy.
- 17:41The hundred dollar toy I just got.
- 17:43Yes, it's again the Toy Story growing with the audience as well.
- 17:46Yes.
- 17:47I would say four is probably the least progressive out of the three out of the rest of the films.
- 17:52Did you have any other like tidbits that you did when we were doing the research for Toy Story?
- 17:57Toy Story?
- 17:58Yes.
- 17:59I was fine. I wasn't going to go through fan art or weird stuff about Toy Story.
- 18:04I know there is a dedicated fan base to Spanish Buzz and Jesse.
- 18:10I know there is such a thing.
- 18:12And I know there are so many.
- 18:14There's a lot of lovely like Toy Story 3 has a lot of like a lot of edits and a lot of like just memes.
- 18:22Because they used a lot of like they're using Ken and Barbie.
- 18:25I mean, they're just very iconic.
- 18:27So, Toy Story Barbie was supposed to be in it.
- 18:30But Mattel didn't want them to use Barbie because their foot was going to fail.
- 18:34Barbie was supposed to be like a Sarah Connor Terminator sort of thing.
- 18:38It is always my favorite story where everyone thinks is going to fail and then the movie turns out to be the best thing since Lice Bread.
- 18:48Let's get on to our review.
- 18:50So, as usual, we every review that we do for all the movies and we drop a review every day on our social media pages.
- 18:59We like to break it into reasons to, reasons not to.
- 19:03And then should you watch or should you miss and then a rating.
- 19:07For those who don't know, we have our ratings pinned to our Instagram and TikTok pages.
- 19:14And Facebook also explains how we rate movies.
- 19:18So, one is I fell asleep.
- 19:20Two is I played my phone.
- 19:23Three is golf cart.
- 19:25Four is banger and five is an all time classic.
- 19:28So, let's get on to the review of Toy Story movie number 99 on the A5 Top 100.
- 19:33Readiness to Hen.
- 19:35Reasons is this.
- 19:36It's an amazing family classic.
- 19:39Yeah.
- 19:40It's got an interesting great animation style with its 3D animation that still holds up today.
- 19:47Yeah, for sure.
- 19:48And it's got some of the funniest moments and scenes in history.
- 19:53At Brisk 81 minutes.
- 19:55Oh, yeah.
- 19:56It's not even like it doesn't even reach the 90 minute mark and you go through a whole journey.
- 20:00I remember being as a child and thinking this is such a long movie because you go through so much with these two characters that you're on the edge of your seat.
- 20:08But now as a child, I'm like, oh yeah, we're just going through here.
- 20:11Great music as well, like not just the, you got a friend in me, but it's also strange things are happening to me.
- 20:19The scene where the boss is about to fly.
- 20:23Yes.
- 20:24And like just the rising of like it's like steps.
- 20:27Also no more.
- 20:29It's so good.
- 20:30So good.
- 20:31This is a great time for you to say some of the great iconic things.
- 20:35I just want to, for our audio listeners, we have a special guest.
- 20:40I have a figurine of my favorite scene in the movie, which is Buzz dressed as a Mrs. Nesbitt.
- 20:48And as he goes to Woody, see the hat.
- 20:52I'm Mrs. Nesbitt.
- 20:57Like some really iconic ones like Mr. Potato Head, Don Rickles just giving one after the line.
- 21:03Just going to Woody.
- 21:04Woody also naked my boot.
- 21:06Yeah.
- 21:07To infinity and beyond.
- 21:09When Buzz says, you're a strange.
- 21:14You're strange.
- 21:15I pity you, strange man.
- 21:17You're strange little man.
- 21:19And all these just really great jokes and stuff that just pull out.
- 21:24Like he's like Sid is like, Sid has the same worry.
- 21:28He chops toys and like plays with them and he calls himself like a doctor.
- 21:33And Buzz goes, I don't believe he's gone through one year of medical school.
- 21:37That's one of the best lines of the movie.
- 21:39I was like, what a good line.
- 21:41Uh, reasons not to.
- 21:43I think Buzz, uh, grates my gears a bit.
- 21:48Mr. Potato brings nothing to the table but negativity.
- 21:51And the toys turn on Woody really quickly considering like you always...
- 21:54Well, it's been there, the seeds of deception are there.
- 21:59Yeah, they're over-strived by the potato.
- 22:01It's a coup d'etat.
- 22:03Let's be honest.
- 22:04Coup d'etat.
- 22:05Yeah.
- 22:06Mutiny, mutiny, mutiny.
- 22:08That's all they wanted.
- 22:09Look, I'm not huge out of the two Buzz and Woody.
- 22:12I go for Bo Peep.
- 22:14But like, seriously.
- 22:16I was always a Woody.
- 22:19I always loved Woody.
- 22:20I thought it was, I don't know why.
- 22:23I was just like, yeah, Woody, he's standing up for them.
- 22:25Woody's got this.
- 22:26And I would always, yeah, I don't know.
- 22:29Now looking back, I'm like, Woody is not a good person here.
- 22:33But he does redeem himself time and time again in these, in all four of the movies.
- 22:38He does like, even though he is usually the cause of why everyone's, what's happening, you know, he does try and redeem it every time.
- 22:47It's such a like, Woody at the time, like he's getting replaced by something that he doesn't even know is toys.
- 22:55And then he gets put in that toy box.
- 22:57Like, when you watch this the first time and you go, oh, I did that to my toys.
- 23:02Yeah.
- 23:03Oh yeah.
- 23:04Like, no, I, I,
- 23:08Speaking of the claw, there's no way that seed pulls that many toys out of the claw machine.
- 23:13Yeah, it's ridiculous.
- 23:14It pulls the alien and then the double.
- 23:17It pulls Woody and Buzz.
- 23:19Yeah.
- 23:20Like there's no way in the history of mankind, no, it pulls that many toys from a claw machine.
- 23:24I have seen people use different tricks for claw machines.
- 23:26It's ridiculous.
- 23:27It's crazy.
- 23:28I, I'd like to say I just love the themes of just the ideas of being scared of being replaced and, and, and, you know,
- 23:37It's funny how like this movie is self identity, new technology and it's replacing hand drawing.
- 23:44Yes.
- 23:45Yes.
- 23:46Cause eventually we do, we fall out like Disney stopped their last two hand drawn animations where Princess and the Frog and Winnie the Pooh, the 2010 version.
- 23:56And then now it's just computer and it's stunning.
- 24:00But then, you know, you kind of, that's why the new animated film is trying to bring it back.
- 24:07But the floor wish in a floor of it is that it hasn't, they haven't seemed it right.
- 24:13It doesn't look just right.
- 24:15Yeah.
- 24:16Well, it wasn't very successful.
- 24:17It came out in the US.
- 24:19Yeah.
- 24:20Let's, let's not look at Disney's flaws.
- 24:21But we could go to Pixar's flaws, which they do make good movies now, but unfortunately I think because of Disney.
- 24:28As a society past Pixar by.
- 24:31I would say not.
- 24:32I think their stories are trying to grapple new issues because they've gone through most of the obvious ones, especially for kids.
- 24:40And they're trying to tackle new issues.
- 24:42And I guess they're trying to lean into more human and interesting stories, but I'm not capturing what they used to.
- 24:52And I guess it's also because they're doing, you know, there's stuff.
- 24:58What's your best Pixar movie?
- 24:59My favorite, my personal favorite is Coco.
- 25:02I loved Coco so much.
- 25:05The twist in Coco is great.
- 25:08It's, I never, I, watching it, I didn't think much of it.
- 25:12And then you, it's beautiful.
- 25:14Other movies stunning because it's one of their best.
- 25:17If we read the list would replace Toy Story.
- 25:20No, I think Toy Story, the reason Toy Story is on this list, I know for a reason.
- 25:24And it may be the reason why Ben, her and a few of the other movies on this list are because how much they impacted cinema rather than say, but I think Toy Story does deserve to be on it.
- 25:37I think 100%, not just because it's like, you know, 3D animation, but I think showing how much like writing, writing and acting and all that's important to a film because all of that came together really well.
- 25:52Like a story of, you know, this could never work to it all blend seamlessly.
- 25:57And it did create one of the most profitable, like Toy Story is like very profitable.
- 26:02And we have four to five movies in it.
- 26:06Does this have to be hard on the list?
- 26:09Without knowing what else is on this list.
- 26:14I know there's a film next week that's, I think it should be higher than, but that's just because it's, you know, it's weird.
- 26:22I, it's hard to say because there isn't that much animation on the AFI Top 100.
- 26:28I believe the only one else is Snow White, which I would argue make shouldn't technically be on this list and should be one of the other.
- 26:37I personally think this should be higher than Snow White.
- 26:40I think this should be higher than Snow White, but I think I would.
- 26:43I see why Snow White's on it though.
- 26:45I see why Snow White's on it.
- 26:47I would argue Snow White shouldn't be the one from Disney to be on it.
- 26:51Now, an important question these days because a lot of movies like Disney will not release another movie in Australia.
- 26:59Would you buy this on Blu-ray if you have a chance to?
- 27:02Yeah, yeah, 100%. It's because it's on Disney Plus and then into it.
- 27:06Buy it on physical media. It's so important because like that streaming services can take movies our way at any time.
- 27:11So we've been seeing that a lot recently.
- 27:13So buy your physical media again.
- 27:15I think this is one of the few movies that will, I don't think it will ever, they won't let this one go because it still does well.
- 27:23You think society's gonna turn on Toy Story?
- 27:26Should you watch or miss Toy Story?
- 27:28A thousand percent of watch.
- 27:29If you haven't watched this, I don't know why.
- 27:35If your own way listens to the book.
- 27:37I don't know.
