The Pixar classic returns to theaters this Thursday, 11, proving that friendship, ingenuity and humanity of toys remain captivating
The relaunch of Toy Storypioneering animation of Pixar and CGI, to the big screen starting this Thursday, September 11, celebrates its 30 years at a time when franchises and sequels dominate cinema and ticket office. Revisiting 1995-When the animated studio was still crawling in terms of feature films, about to turn 10 years of existence-it is a rare opportunity to return to the origin of everything and realize three decades later, such as animations, stories and even expectations were simpler.
Even direct, the story is charming: WoodyAndy’s favorite toy, faces jealousy and insecurity when Buzz Lightyeara modern astronaut who threatens to steal his place as a favorite toy. But the conflict goes beyond the dispute between toys; It is a fable about friendship, belonging, fear of substitution and the need to reinvent itself. Woody and Buzz cross adventures ranging from Andy’s room to the neighborhood streets, developing an unexpected friendship.
In recent years, watching a debut from Pixar It became synonymous with “Get ready to thin in tears”: the exciting clip of Carl and Ellie’s married life in UP – High Adventures (2009) or the song “Remember me” in Viva – Life is a party (2017) are striking examples. But this first Toy Story It reminds us that, originally, the idea was different: fun and make laugh – without losing lightness and ingenuity. This simplicity, today rare, is lacking in contemporary cinema.
By the way, if today the cinema – and even part of the public – seems to value the discussion of “important topics”, here it does not exist. Toy Story It does not address great social issues, nor depends on media trends, external elements or memes – which did not even exist at the time as they are propagated today: history is enough for itself. It is an adventure between toys, capable of capturing the imagination of children and adults, using the CGI in a playful way to bring this universe to life.
What makes Toy Story Timeless is not just the pioneering technology for the time – which, even today, keeps a nostalgic charm – but the emotional richness of the characters. Woody It is charismatic, but flawed, moved by pride and insecurity; BuzzInitially arrogant, it discovers its own vulnerability and learns the value of friendship. This humanization, even into dolls, turns each scene into something universally recognizable and deeply touching.
What could only be a children’s tale transforms, in the hands of Pixar and the director John Lasseter (Insect life), in a story capable of delighting all ages. Each toy gains its own personality, fears and desires, and it is this humanization that makes the narrative universal, timeless and deeply captivating. The force of Toy Story It is precisely in its uncomplication: it does not need complex messages or large topics to convey values such as friendship, empathy and cooperation.
Thirty years later, Toy Story It continues to have fun while keeping its place as an absolute classic. The franchise’s legacy is fascinating: new toys have come, the characters have evolved, but the innocence and ingenuity of the first movie remain overflowing and relevant. Revising this classic is to remember that sometimes less is more – and that magic is in telling stories with honesty, heart and imagination, being able to cross generations without losing its charm.
