Quite possibly one of the weakest movies Pixar has ever made. And I was so excited, I’m obviously a Toy Story and Pixar fan considering I paid extra to see it early today for the “Andy Experience”
Let me just get some things out of the way. I don’t want to engage with fucking autists that argue about the “canon” of this Buzz vs the cartoon Buzz vs the video game Buzz vs the Toy Story Saga Buzz’s backstory.
Second, one character that isn’t that prominent has a Lesbian relationship and that’s it. It’s barely in the movie.
Now that we got the talking points out of the way, the movie sucked because it was BORING and GENERIC
it has quite possibly the most predictable, generic, and cliche plot line I’ve ever seen in an animated movie. The side characters are the laziest, most pathetically cliche personalities I’ve ever seen with absolutely no depth. The sad part is there’s only 4-5 prominent characters, Buzz and his squad.
The movie has very kiddy messaging about “work together if you want to succeed”. No depth
The villain was one-note and boring and evil for the sake of being evil. And he’s defeated in a lame, anticlimactic way. I thought there’s no possible fucking way this is the end. But then the movie just yadda yadda’s a bunch of shit and then it just ends.
The humor is the same generic kind of quips and yelling we’ve come to expect from modern Pixar.
The ONLY thing that I’ll give the movie credit for is that it has a slightly advanced science-fiction concept in it. However, it just makes the movie worse because there’s untold potential with such a storyline and it just goes for the boring, easy, generic, nonsensical storytelling.
Fuck Pixar, and fuck this movie. At least it doesn’t do anything to tarnish the original trilogy
