As if the movie wasn't shoddy enough with its outdated and saccharine view of childhood toys (I could write a whole essay on this, but I think that's what separate Toy Story from its predecessors--it took a more edged and modern look at the status of toys.), the poor bastards who made this have to content with the future of public imagination coming out just two months later.

2023-12-03 01:39:23 +0000 UTCAs the requestor of this case, first thing's first...THANK YOU!! Second, You have no idea how much this movie harkens the phrase "I try to get out, but it always pulls me back" (Bear with me for a sec, I'm about to un-suppress a lot of memories). I first saw a snippet of it when I was 3 years old (before FULLY developing cognitive abilities); the Only thing I remembered was the Greedy/Taffy Pit and also being freaked out by it at that young an age...so, naturally, my parents recorded over it with a bunch of Disney shows...cut to about 5 years later when I dig up the tape for some reason, and in between some of the Disney shows was a Surviving Fragment; about 12 seconds of "Candy Hearts & Paper Flowers"...I ask my sister if she remembers this, to which she reminded me of the scene with the Greedy...suddenly I had even more pre-internet questions that needed answers... This went on for about 2 years, until one day when renting games at a Blockbuster & looking for stuff to watch afterwards, there it was in all its Boxed Glory (?). I wanted to rent it, my parents were immediately skeptical that a (now) 10 year old me wanted to rent a kids movie when I had already elevated to more Live Action stuff...Long story short, I sat through it...and my Jaw could not be picked up from the ground until after the credits, it was THAT Polarizing to me. I had one of those "Let us never speak of this again" kind of moments the second I dropped the tape into the Quikdrop box. Since then, once every couple of years, someone, something or some random corner of the internet would remind me of this movie's existence; and while as an adult now I don't feel as negatively strongly about it when I was 10 (Hell, I can even make jokes about it now); this was still a Cinematic Scar that has yet to truly heal... Also, you spelled Telehell in the credits with 4 L's, but I'll forgive that knowing what people in the other Circles of Here can do to me...Once again, Thank you Your Honor.
