A revolutionary work that has gone down in history
"Toy Story" cartoon is a unique creation that we owe to the joint work of Pixar and Walt Disney. The painting was a breakthrough for its time, because it was the first full meter completely modeled in three dimensions on a computer. In addition, the film was nominated for an Oscar in the Best Original Screenplay category.
The cartoon, like the creator companies, set another bar for themselves, both in a creative sense and in technical innovations. The project managed to attract attention, of course, primarily due to the unusual format, because the characters were drawn on a computer, and projects of this scale had never been done before. But with all this, "Toy Story" offers a memorable plot, great characters and a really worked-out world. This combination allowed the cartoon not only to collect an impressive box office of 375 million dollars with a budget of 30 million. dollars, but also to make the story itself legendary. The cartoon is still popular today, has several sequels, and the younger generation continues to watch the story of cowboy Woody, Buzz Lightyear and their friends with unprecedented interest.
Today, viewers are already used to dozens of diverse animated computer projects. It is difficult to surprise us with computer graphics, although every year the technical side of cartoons is also improving. In such a situation, I wonder why the cartoon, which is more than 25 years old, is still interesting to review, given its meager implementation to date. Yes, in 1995 it was a real revolution, but in modern realities, the project, for obvious reasons, lags far behind the mass of others. And the answer suggests itself. The interest does not subside due primarily to the story that we see in this cartoon.
Toys are the main characters of this picture. They come to life in those moments when people don't see them. Toys live their own lives, have social connections, their own social circle, becoming one family. Each of the heroes adores his master Eddie, they are good together, the heroes know that their mission is to be the boy's toys and give him joy. And this scenario works great. Even as an adult, when watching this picture, I think many people are ready to admit, at least once, but we wondered what if it were true. What if our toys, our children's toys, came to life when we weren't with them. An amazing idea, terribly interesting and at the same time adding some magic to our usual life. And even if this does not happen, such a plot of "Toy Story" makes the world much more beautiful.
The cartoon is designed to teach viewers true friendship. Everyone's favorite is Woody the cowboy. He is a kind of leader of his team, a guy who is used to being the first, beloved and, as it seems to him, exceptional. However, everything changes when a new advanced Buzz Lightyear toy appears in the house. The current situation threatens to bring confusion to a small toy society. Subsequent events will clearly show how the leader of Woody learns not to be just a pet and the first toy, the story will teach the cowboy to be a leader, a good friend and a connoisseur of each member of the team.
"Toy Story" is an undoubted revolution in the world of cartoons. The film even became the 99th in the list of the greatest films in the history of American cinema according to the American Film Institute. This work will give you a lot of pleasant impressions thanks to a pleasant picture, a lot of jokes, and a dynamic plot. The painting is a real decoration of the cinema.
