Toy 4, playing with the old audience

Toys 4 is an amazing movie

The magic of it is: if you leave the first three films and watch 4 directly, your senses may be very good, and even give a high score

But if you finish the first three first, and then watch 4 immediately, then the feeling will be different, you may have a kind of discomfort like eating a fly

First, let's review the ending of the third part:

Andy is going to college, but he still misses Woody and even decides to take him to college. But Woody makes arrangements for Andy to give all the toys (including himself) to little girl Bonnie. Finally, Andy asked Bonnie: Can you take care of my toys? The little girl nodded timidly, saying yes.

Here, the concept of the first three parts of the toy series has been sublimated to the greatest extent. Andy has grown up and understands that letting go is also a kind of inheritance; the toys have new owners and can continue to fulfill their missions; little girl Bonnie has With new toys and new friends, happiness and joy continue. The language of the camera also clearly tells us that Bonnie is a responsible and good host.

This ending, both for the characters and for the audience, is perfect.

As a result, what about the fourth new film after 9 years? ?

The little girl was fine with other toys, but Woody was thrown into the cold. After the little girl has a new love, she doesn't even know that Woody is lost...

The hearts of Andy, Woody and the old viewers are so bad

Imagine being forced to give away the cat. You carefully selected a next home and asked him: Can you take care of my cat? The other party said, yes.

But a year later, you found out that the other party was playing with hamsters, so you asked him: How is the cat I gave you? The other party flashed innocent big eyes: cat? what cat? You see I don't have a cat here!

Do you feel like you want to kill someone? ?

Some people say that children are ignorant, and children just like the new and hate the old...

Some people say that the theme of this film is actually the pursuit of self, the pursuit of one's own happiness, balabala...

Well, children are ignorant, isn't Woody still ignorant? If the little girl is really a master who likes the new and hates the old, why did Woody still bother with the last movie? Wouldn't it be nice to just stay by Andy's side?

And when it comes to this one, if Woody finds that what he is trusting is not human, and turns to find his own happiness, it is not impossible. But you see how he treats the little fork

Originally, the self-positioning of the little fork was garbage. People were very happy and warm in the trash can. They had no feelings, no obligations, and no fetters for the so-called master. As a result, Woody spent a few days brainwashing him: You are a toy! You have to make the master happy! You are trash and master's trash! You must not leave your master! !

In the end, Little Fork's self and three views were smashed to pieces, and he was forcibly tied to the master's side. And then Woody, Yiqi Juechen went to find himself, find love and find freedom...

Woody, you go after yourself, no problem. Why can't the little fork pursue himself? Why should the three views of the little fork be reshaped?

What is this? Schizophrenia? Dead Daoist friends do not die poor Daoists? Is this still the same Woody he has always been? ?

There is a kind of people who often say "I'm doing this for your own good!" "Why can't you understand my painstaking efforts?" Isn't that how Woody behaves?

Don't you feel ashamed to say that this film promotes "pursuit of self"?

Bonnie's gone, Woody's gone, and the rest of the characters aren't much better

Buzz Lightyear, a brave and decisive good buddy, is at a loss in this episode, only "listening to his heart"

Triss and others are completely reduced to background boards

The BOSS doll is easily washed out, and even in the second half of the film, you will magically find that there is no villain in this film.

Bonnie's parents are two imbeciles...

After all, it seems that the shepherdess is normal.

So why did Toy 4 come out? What do the creators want to do?

Just to give Woody a CP? Give an explanation to the shepherdess of part 1 and 2?

In fact, the most touching part of the toy series, in addition to the friendship and love between toys and toys, is the friendship between toys and their owners. The latter may be deeper, and there are also many movies in which toys are abandoned by their owners. Afterwards or crash or blacken the plot. It is because of this theme that the difference between Andy and Woody in the end is so touching

And when it comes to Toys 4, this emotional line has been completely split, and the previous perfect ending has been completely broken. To this extent, it is cheap to say that a dog's tail continues to be a mink, and it can already be called feeding shit.

shit

PS: Actually, it’s normal to watch this movie alone and think it’s pretty good. After all, this movie isn’t without merit. For example, Shepherdess, because she didn’t have much plot in the first three movies, what happened to this movie It doesn't seem so inconsistent with the character, which is one of the highlights of the film

But seeing so many marketing accounts and "die-hard fans" actually touting that this movie continues the essence of the first three films, and is in the same line as the first three films, I can only sigh, maybe we are really not watching the same series... …
