And God knows, if anyone says anything against Toy Story in my presence, I’ll sock them in the goddamn face and they’ll stay plastered. A lot of the people who worked on it went on to work at Pixar, and it shows, because the plot has definite resemblances to Toy Story. Now, I’m not going to deny there’s a lot to like in this movie. I’m talking about Disney’s random venture into the adventures of anthropomorphic appliances, the Brave Little Toaster. Some of these are going to be less obvious than others, and to that end, I’ve decided to begin the series by tackling a more counterintuitive film – one that definitely has its merits – but one which I disliked heavily in my childhood, and still dislike today. As you may have guessed, given this subject matter, this is going to be a much less serious column than my infamous “Mytheology,” and will probably offend a lot less of you, seeing as I’m going to be tackling films that, by and large, everyone can agree have some serious flaws. I’m going to try to get as many of these published over the next week as possible, seeing as it’s my last chance to publish in the Blargus, and also seeing as it’s my last chance to rant about a topic wholly unrelated to political liberalism, but no less repulsive to my worldview – namely, animated films that ruined my childhood. This is Mytheos Holt, your (at least for another week) resident epic troll, and welcome to a new column I like to call “the DeAnimator.” And yes, it is a column.
