Combat Carl was in the first Toy Story movie as one of Sid’s toys that he destroyed and mutated.
But one of them isn’t actually new at all. There are plenty of new toys introduced in Terror, though they fortunately don’t take the focus off the characters we’ve come to know and love. At one point, he says, “This would be the part where the characters get separated and picked off one by one.” His little bits of commentary are always hilarious. He can be very dramatic, sees how real life can relate to what’s seen in the movies and seems to generally know how a story’s plot will go. Pricklepants is a fantastic character, first seen in Toy Story 3. I won’t give away spoilers, because you really need to experience the story for yourself, but let’s just say that backstory comes rearing back, and character development becomes a big focus. Isolation and claustrophobia like that can affect anybody. But here she finally takes center stage.Īs we know, Jessie was a collectible and left in a box for years. Jessie the cowgirl was introduced in Toy Story 2, and even though she’s always been involved in the action and plot ever since, I would still consider her a secondary character, with Woody and Buzz being in the primary roles. And Terror follows that same winning formula. What drives Pixar films, especially with Toy Story, is having character-driven storylines. This is a Halloween special, after all, so they better hurry before someone else vanishes. All the toys are in a panic when one of their own goes missing, and they set out at night (why do these things always happen at night?) to save their friend. What could go wrong?Įverything, of course. But when their car runs into some mechanical issues, they must stay the night at a roadside motel. This time around, Bonnie and her mother are on a road trip, with the toys hanging out in the trunk. In Toy Story of Terror, Woody, Buzz and the gang are back for another adventure. They have nothing to fear - aside from the terror that’s on the loose, of course - with Pixar’s first television special that continues the Toy Story franchise beyond the movies and shorts. They not only cite Cars as an obvious example, but also Brave and Monsters University as well. But in recent years, fans have begun to think that maybe the studio just isn’t what it used to be.
From Toy Story and Wall-E to The Incredibles and Up, they rarely make a misstep. Pixar has become the gold standard that every other animation studio wishes they could be.
