The Toy Story movies are odd and depressing.

How can the porn industry not have already made Sex Toy Story about talking dildos and blow up dolls, etc?

Mad Tv did that skit years and years ago.

Let’s see Andy had the toys in his room until he left for college which means they witnessed countless hours of masturbation. Bet that was addressed onscreen.

No, it’s far worse than that.

I think you might be too sensitive here. I think what has made pixar’s stories successful is that the script is on two levels. The kids see what they want, and they throw in enough of the jokes like with the Ken doll to make the adults laugh.

I honestly can’t see a gay person being upset with that, but since I’m not gay I can’t speak in a definite voice. But Ken being into clothes, having the dream house, etc is very funny… He clearly has some feminine traits. But he also wants to share his life with a Barbie. Would it have made you feel better if Ken was given another Ken doll to live with? Because I still would have laughed. It might not have gone over well with generic parent USA, but I would have laughed.
.

I didn’t care whether they made Ken gay or not, I was just kinda taken out of the movie by the reaction they had the characters give like being horrified Ken has girly handwriting. I didn’t find it offensive Ken was feminine or that they were making jokes about it.

Some of the jokes were funny like Barbie yanking her scarf back, and torturing Ken by ripping up clothes.

Maybe, but when I left home I didn’t get to put my parents in the attic, yet alone throw them out by the curb for trash pickup.

Don’t abuse the metaphor. Your parents aren’t literally toys, I doubt you had eight parents, and I’m sure you never locked them in the attic or threw them out in the garbage. But, as you note, you did grow up, move out, and leave your parents behind. The metaphor is there even if the details are necessarily different.

Besides, you’re missing the big point. You’re “Andy” and it’s not Andy’s story. The series was told from the point of view of the toys - i.e. parents. Watch the movies again in a couple of decades when your kids have moved out and you’ll see them in a whole different way.

Actually, there was a stop-motion animated short about exactly this, made LONG before Toy Story was even thought of. It did feature a giant evil blow-up doll, which played a Godzilla-like role, towering over the other toys.
I can’t recall the title, and a quick search doesn’t turn it up (but turns up lots of things I don’t want to access at work), but it came out circa 1980.

I tried to watch it years ago… it just hurt my eyes. I just hate the style of animated movies, and they say butt and ass too often.
