Someone should make a new Toy Story film with AI. The new Andy's mom keeps trying to stop him playing with Woody and Buzz. Insisting he plays with Jesse, Barbies and Bo Peep. It gets to the point she gives away / throws out the male toys and they have to go on a mission to save Andy from being trooned out.
 
Changing topics, recently i decided to rewatch The Old Mill short film from 1937. It's one that i had on DVD on one of their many collections of shorts. It's been a while since i had seen this, in fact, i had not seen it since i was a kid. And after i had finished watching it, i started crying. And i am not one to cry to movies or any other type of media, so this was an interesting experience. The Nostalgia from the simpler times may have played a part on it, but man, the old Disney guys really had something special.

Wasnt there a Toy Story parody where the Toys go in to the mothers bedroom and meet her "toys"?
 
Randomly came across this video on Instagram.

They are 100% doing the “Come see our quirky blorbo” marketing tactic that they did for Elemental. Speaking of, did anyone here watch that? I was put off by the ugly ass character designs and it appearing to be yet another anti racism story that gets more holes the longer you think about it.

People desperately need to learn that racial allegories only work if the difference is literally skin deep. The moment you have fucking Magnetto flying around or the kid that kills everyone in a 10-mile radius, the message breaks down fast, and you have now justified racism.

Edit: By the way for those that don’t know, it’s a 10-mile radius of death that the kid is not in control of. There’s no turning it off, it just happens.

Or you could give more arguments toward the racists instead of making him a strawman for muh poitics; I find more interesting fantasy/sci-fi racism that has actual nuances and arguments for one to support it, instead of going "orcs are an allegory for niggers you see".
Or maybe make a case study of the hypotetical conflict between biological instinct and advanced intellect: just because a species is born evil, naturally stronger, need to eat human flesh to survive and has a predatory instinct to kill and rape humans it doesn't means it can live alongside humans, but sacrifices must be made for both. This kind of stuff.

Not to defend Marvel, but that death kid thing was a story in the now-defunct Ultimates universe and they actually sent Wolverine to kill that kid so nobody found out. So at least there was a little a little bit of nuance with that one particular story in that mutants realized they had to clean up their own mess in advance or else their carefully constructed victimhood narrative would crumble.

I know, I read the story, liked it for the most part, but the thing is, thinking about it in terms of mutants are real, that can still happen again in a similar circumstance. The kid hit puberty, and 200+ people died in less than a day. What happens when it’s ‘If-he-breathes-he-causes-a-nuclear-explosion Boy’ or A guy that wakes up and now if he talks to someone, they are added to his hive mind? There was a delay between the kid waking up, and being killed. Yeah, they shifted the blame, and preserved the narrative and did what needed to be done, but that it could happen again with the kid next door, or YOU. Thinking about it, it’s terrifying. Mutants are scary!

Thank god it didn’t turn into that one anime mini movie about the guy that becomes a living death engine but is too stupid to realize he’s a living death engine, while the military is desperately trying to kill him to no avail.

Edit: For anyone wondering, the mini-movie is called “Stink Bomb” From the movie “Memories”.
