Return to the cult animation after many years!
A few years after the premiere of Toy Story 4 , on June 17, 2022, a film showing the adventures of the space guardian, Buzz Lightyear, is released. The director is the creator of other famous films (including Where is Dory? ), Angus MacLane. He portrayed exactly the plot that stole young Andy’s heart in Toy Story . The sci-fi animation tells about the beginnings of the career of Buzz Lightyear, who was the model for creating the cult toy. The producers presented the story of the main character well, showing the fight between good and evil, creating a movie with interesting threads and weaving unconventional elements. These are the reasons why the animation can stand out from other productions, bringing a breath of fresh air to children’s cinema.
Buzz and his robot cat win the hearts of children
The producers, presenting the story of the Buzz Lightyear toy, introduced a cat to the fate of the space guardian, or actually a cat, which is a robot. Kotex is a small companion of the main character who, contrary to appearances, influences the plot and plays a quite important role. A strong bond develops between the guardian of the cosmos and the cat – they become friends, solve problems together, and fight against Astral’s enemy, Zurg. In the film, Kotex amazes with his intelligence and at the same time makes the viewers laugh. It is an inseparable element of Buzz’s life and accompanies him in his adventures. Moreover, later in the story, new characters join them who also help Buzz. Together, they form a well-coordinated team and try to achieve the intended goal of the mission together.

A novelty for children’s animations, i.e. the plot of same-sex couples
A surprising new element for this film was the story of Buzz Lightyear’s friend and one character’s grandmother, Alishia Hawthorne. The creators decided to show the relationship of a same-sex couple in the film and presented the story of the grandmother of one of the protagonists. This is a big step in the history of children’s cinema, especially in Disney cartoons. Recently, LGBTQ + themes are being introduced more and more often in films, also for younger viewers. Granny Hawthorne’s story gives the production an element of freshness that sets it apart from other animated films. It is a new convention that has been woven into the plot in a surprisingly good way and does not distract from the main fate of Buzz Lightyear.
Animation for both adults and children
Buzz Lightyear will be eagerly watched by older viewers who fell in love with the movie about the adventures of Toy Story as a child, as well as by the young ones who are only at the beginning of getting to know this extraordinary story. Therefore, in your free time, it is worth going to the latest Disney Pixar movie about the fate of Buzz Lightyear and again delving into the adventures of these iconic characters.
