But it's not
Buzz Lightyear... Redesigned
Why does movie Buzz look so serious but Toy Buzz is a funni cartoon man?
Maybe his toyline is based off a Saturday morning cartoon adaptation of the movie.
Buzz does get a new suit at the end that looks more like his Toy Story outfit, but also the director said that Andy’s Buzz Lightyear is based on a cartoon of the movie Lightyear.
We’re basically talking the difference between the look of the movie Ghostbusters and the Real Ghostbusters action figures.
This is not to deny that the lore behind the film’s place in the Toy Story universe is ridiculously intricate.
Why didn’t Pixar, a cartoon studio, just make a movie of the supposed Buzz Lightyear cartoon then? Why did they make a gritty action flick that they had to neuter because they’re not actually allowed to make a gritty action flick because their brand is cartoons?
So they can make that 10 years later
But they already made it 10 years ago (I’m sure that’s inaccurate, but I’m not checking the exact number because it’s beside the point)
Because they hate the cartoon and disavow its existence.
At least take the final suit he wear at the end.
>Why didn’t Pixar, a cartoon studio, just make a movie of the supposed Buzz Lightyear cartoon then?
Because it had already been done.
Because Disney already did it 20 years ago and Lasseter's remaining friends at Pixar are still as salty as he was about it.
so this mess all goes back to Lasseter
Yes. The man who made Toy Story and was able to gain all that power because he made Toy Story really fricking hated the idea of other people playing with his toys and making up stories that weren't like what he imagined Buzz Lightyear's source material was like.
>just make a movie of the supposed Buzz Lightyear cartoon then?
No you dodo, the idea is that there was this Lightyear movie, which then got a cartoon series that looked radically different, that then got toys. It's like the Beetlejuice cartoon, Lydia didn't look anything like this in the movie but it's the look everyone is familiar with because of the cartoon.
>the look everyone is familiar with because of the cartoon
maybe if you're only on Cinemaphile
>Third one from the left
the director contradicted the opening text that HE put in his movie?
That's just marketing spin like that image of Andy watching the movie in theaters with his toys.
In his Buzz Lightyear movie franchise autism, Lightyear came out in the 80s and Andy either saw the original Lightyear trilogy on home video or in a Special Edition style re-release, while having a Buzz toy from the animated spinoff series that was running in the 90s.
>the movie Ghostbusters
>the Real Ghostbusters
It's right there, they aren't supposed to be the same
It was called The Real Ghostbusters to avoid confusion with Filmation's Ghostbusters, which was a reboot of a 1975 live-action show with a talking gorilla nobody remembered that the Ghostbusters movie stole its title from.
>nobody remembered that the Ghostbusters movie stole its title from.
There was a deal made by the executives.
In fact securing the name was a big deal for them.
>There was a deal made by the executives.
>In fact securing the name was a big deal for them.
But they still didn't have permission to use the name when the movie came out; it was a whole mess and Funimation tried to both use the name and cash on movie with The Ghostbusters cartoon. Apparently the cartoon have only the gorilla in common with the original.
That there's an in-universe episode of the cartoon that says the movie is based off THEM was something I took at face value as a small, stupid child.
>It's right there, they aren't supposed to be the same
Because the toy and cartoon company decided the bland movie costumes and similar hair colors/body types didn't work well for selling toys, so they redesigned them when they actually did sell toys. Dan Akroyd was annoyed they made him the chubby one.
>Dan Akroyd was annoyed they made him the chubby one.
To be fair he had packed on a few pounds in Ghostbusters. You can tell he was (at least mostly) off the cocaine by that point.
why, he is chubby
Akroyd is the skinny Blues brother but the chubby Ghostbusters.
I watched the movie and he only gets the complete suit like the toys at the very end. in all honesty they should have made a run of the mill 90" style space adventure instead of the mess the movie ended up being. I still enjoyed it but there's so much wrong with it i really can't even begin to describe it.
>Zoomers don't know
That’s a repainted Super Powers Penguin, lmao, awesome.
That doesn't count, that was because parents freaked out at Devito's Penguin and Kenner was forced to scrap doing a movie accurate version for fear of it not selling.
Explain Toy Biz's Batman and Joker, then.
Hey, The Dark Knight had "kid friendly" redesigns it used for all sorts of toys and merchandise for Joker and other characters and that was only 2008.
I pray for my friends to never find this toy because he literally looks like me
That is Toy Biz just being cheap, but Returns is notorious for how much of a moral panic it caused, to the point where McDonald's had parents writing in complaints because they had Batman Returns happy meals.
>but Returns is notorious for how much of a moral panic it caused, to the point where McDonald's had parents writing in complaints because they had Batman Returns happy meals.
The question is, was the moral panic before, or after Kenner had the toys released and designed? Because toy production takes a few months to a year, and I doubt Kenner waited until after the backlash to have the toy released.
If I recall correctly Kenner did have a DeVito Penguin prototype ready to go and had to scuttle that at the last minute. Pretty much everyone involved in the film behind the scenes knew they were in trouble when they saw the finished product.
I mean they were right to be freaked out, imagine being 8 waking up in the middle of the night and seeing your Danny Devito doll in the darkness staring at you.

Should've gone with a self-parody style and said Lightyear is more grounded reboot of the original.
I can't take the "realistic" Buzz seriously when he has a goofy shaped head
somehow a 2d animated movie from years ago is better than a CGI one released today.
Explain to me how that' possible?
toy story wasn't 2d animated
The 2D cartoon movie from the year 2000 that worked as a pilot for the Buzz Lightyear's series...
The 2D movie didn't have so much executive meddling.
>executive meddling
but it was made because disney executives couldn't meddle in pixar's affairs enough
Not so much executive meddling ≠ no executive meddling
Not really; it was made because direct to video movies where making a lot of movie and they wanted to cash on that. The first two episodes double as a direct to Video / T.V. movie, you have a version with Tim Allen as the voice of Buzz for those two episodes.
Here is a pretty good video investigation of it
Is it worth watching or it is just woketard shit?
Its an extremely bland space movie.
The woke shit is small fry compared to how mediocre the rest of the film is.
No, one is the character and the other one is a toy of the character
Seriously one of the worst adaptations ever made.
If they had any integrity the toys coming from Lightyear would simply be traditional Buzz Lightyear toys in order to better demonstrate the concept of the film. Who am I kidding? Disney and integrity have become oxymoronic .

One is supposed to be a real human/actor and the other is toy based on a stylized caricature of that actor
I don't actually hate this redesign, it doesn't need quite so much panel lining, and taking the green maybe 10% lighter wouldn't hurt either. The actual biggest problem is the expression, he should have more of the confident grin and less of the grim neutral/near frowning expression that's so popular for "serious" shows, cartoons, etc.
