TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games
Ep. 794 - Toy Story (SNES)
You're about to listen to Tadpog, Tyler and Dave play old games. It's a comedy video game podcast. We would like to stress that the host are not experts and are really just very crass commentators. Seriously, this is an explicit podcast that happens to talk about video games sometimes. So please enjoy this pretty okay podcast with Tyler and Dave. [Music] So this week we're going to talk about the movie and the game Toy Story as we wind down the movie to game SNES list. This little indie film, not many people know about it, but we here at Tadpog like to be on the cutting edge, you know. Computer graphics, transformation, like specifically silicon graphics, computer based expansion. We're the foremost experts on that 20-year-old technology, 30-year-old technology. I'll go on the record and it's saying that's true. Before we get to all that though, yeah, what you guys been up to is Thanksgiving breaks. Thanksgiving. No kidney stones to report, that's really good here. So lots of water, no soda. I've been staying off of all that stuff, cutting down on my salt, you know, trying to. That's hard. Sodium so hard to wear and everything. But if I got to try to be like better with carbs and better with sugar and stuff like that, then I need to be okay with taking on a little sodium if I have to because otherwise I'm just going to be eating styrofoam or something. But sign me up, man, get some nutritious styrofoam, make it cheap, make it cheap, gives me nutrition. I'm on it, man. Let's do it. Like some astronaut ice cream, just get some of that, that's like 40 grams of protein per serving, zero sugar, yeah, I'm down, man. If I can sign me up, how much per meal? 18.95 per meal, I don't know. Three times a day, can you do nine, nine, 95? It's not my price. I'm just, I'm not even making any money on that. You're the distributor. I'm not making any money on that. By the time I'm paying my scientists, I'm paying my marketing, baby, it gets nothing. I'm basically, I basically just break even at this point. I'm just doing you a favor. I understand. 95. You see, normally it'd be 29.95. You pass me to your friend, I pass to the savings on you. I appreciate it. In addition to passing the savings along, I'm still watching one piece and I'm not going to say what season or what episode I'm on. Oh, I want one more. But you're done. Yeah. No, I'm not going to say, but currently the bounty on Monkey D. Luffy is set at 30 million berries, 30 million berries. If you know, you know. I don't. I don't. I don't. It's still early. I don't know. Yeah. That's it. Is it off fruit-based currency in this anime? Well, I don't know. They call it berries, but I've never actually seen the currency. I hope they're real berries. I hope so too. Well, you know, he got his powers from eating a fruit. I did not. I don't know anything. Okay. So this whole world is, this all like seafaring pirates, that thing. Okay. Sure. Okay. And Monkey is this kid who's grown up around pirates his whole life and he's decided he's going to be the king of the pirates because there's this one. He's going to be Hokage. There's one. Yeah. That'd be great. Exactly. Man, I'm tired of being raped by these pirates. I think I'll become the king of them. It's going to be the king rape. So the no, no, no, no, so I can stop the rape. But obviously I'll be corrupted by power as part of my journey. Yeah. Got a rape to get there. Once I get there, no more rape. Right. Yeah. Probably. Oh, shit. I see how these. Straight moratorium on rape after. Well, it's like a rape to maintain power, but then it's the minimum number of rapes. I see why these pirates were doing this. Right. Right. Monkey Diddy. That's right. This is a second conversation as part of that guy today in my life. Yeah. That's not, I mean, not too surprising considering the amount of harassment. Oh, it's awesome. Really, he's having a great time. He has like 20 dudes that wait on him and fuck him in prison. He's on a suicide watch now. So you keep your eyes open for the next chapter, which I can predict is probably going to be similar to another. Just like that. Chapter. Yeah. He'll have killed himself. Just last time, baby oil. Right. So anyway. More baby oil. More spit. Anyway, there's this one legendary pirate that had died that had been caught and killed. But right before he died, he said that he has this, this massive, this buried treasure, the greatest treasure of all called the one piece. Okay. Um, which whoever finds it would be, you know, worthy of his treasure and king of the pirates. And so monkey has had decided a long time ago that he's going to be the king of the pirates and he's going to set out and find the one piece. And when he was a kid, he ate a devil fruit. And in this universe, there, these devil fruits have different qualities and bestow certain powers upon whoever eats it. So in monkeys case, he ate what's called the gum gum fruit and it makes him rubber, basically. He could stretch out his arms and I didn't know the kind of stuff. Mr. Fantastic had good powers. Right. Right. Um, some of them have like, they've, they've, and that's the whole crux of like all the villains, most of them big bads have eaten some sort of devil fruit that gives them various and sundry powers. Okay. And they're all different, different types of powers. Okay. Um, one guy can turn himself into smoke and another guy can manipulate his features to look like anybody and they all have a name like, it's smoke smoke fruit or it's something something fruit. Uh huh. Cause what they're like three different kinds of fruits, like an elemental control fruit, a body control fruit and an animal fruit. Haven't gotten a tip in my hand a little, but I haven't gotten that far into it as to where they've explained very much about the fruits themselves. I watch it via TikToks, all knowledge from one piece. It just reels on TikTok. But, but based on what I've seen, yes, it's something like that. So anyway, he, he sets off on his adventure and he's had his main, his first really sort of big storyline is to get to what's called the grand line, which is sort of this like strip of ocean that goes between all four of the oceans or has very treacherous and very dangerous and, but that's where the one piece is supposedly located. Okay. So that's, that's the basic rundown of one piece. Okay. So anyway, he, he makes a name for himself early on and his bounty is set at 30 million berries, which is a very high number. That was going to be my next question. But my, but my, what's the exchange rate to bananas? I don't know, but I could tell you the exchange rate to um, euros. Okay. No. It's 12. 12. But uh, it apparently from some of the stuff I've seen, the bounty goes up over time. Like he just keeps getting more and more infamous and he picks up some friends, makes them new friends and people come for them for the bounty. Yeah. There's that and just the, the big bads trying to stop him from foiling their plans because the, it's run by these seven pirates, he's seven, like ultimate pirates that have like the support of the world government to sort of keep other pirating under control. Okay. stuff. It's, it's pretty cool storyline. There's a lot of filler in it, but I'm enjoying it. So and is it where if you eat a devil fruit, you can't swim? Correct. Once if you eat a devil, that is bad for a pirate. It's real bad. Especially considering that basically this entire world centers around boats and sailing and pirates and things like that. And uh, but yeah, once you've eaten a devil fruit, water is, if you like are submerged in water, you just basically can't do it. You just faint and fall and sink. You don't swim. You die. So it's worse than like not being able to swim. Oh, it's like a legitimate vulnerability. You could really die. Yeah. Yeah. So and it makes him weak and stuff. It's, and again, I haven't encountered that, but a couple of times just more as an intro to the way it works. But yeah, every, every person that has eaten a devil fruit, the caveat is you, you cannot swim. Yeah. So anyway, I've been enjoying that. And then, um, don't know if you remember, but last year or even the last year or earlier this year, I may have mentioned a show on Apple TV called silo. Yeah. I remember you talking about that. It's kind of cool. It's a great show. I really enjoy it. It's very fallout, very apocalypse into the world. They're in like a fallout shelter kind of thing that's a giant silo in the earth. Um, season two is out now, uh, a few episodes in. It just started earlier this month, this being December, 2024 for those of you who listen much later, um, sort of picked up right where it left off. And I've been enjoying that. There's not many episodes I'm trying to kind of savor that one a little bit. So ration. I'm rationing it. But it's, it's really good. And then, uh, the last thing I've got, uh, because I haven't had any really eventful things happen, uh, Thanksgiving was good. Uh, we had the kids came over. We all sat around and ate food and hung out and watched a movie and we watched a movie called, um, Dear Santa, which is a Jack Black movie right now on a Paramount plus brand new. Oh, were he Satan? Right. So there's this dyslexic kid who writes a letter to Santa, but instead of writing Santa, he writes Satan, uh, to say two Satan in the North Lope, uh, and the letter goes down to hell and Jack Black gets it and comes up and grants the boy three wishes. And, uh, this kid's like really good hearted. And so he's got a real, once he realizes he's actually dealing because Satan tries to, Jack Black tries to play himself off as Santa, but then his friend, he gets the letter back and his friend says, look who you addressed this to. And he's like, one of the best lines in the movie goes, Satan, Oh, no, well, at least Santa somehow got the letter. So this is a really funny, witty, naive little kid. And I liked it. It was a fun time. That one I'm going to give three and a half stars, uh, for good family fun. Wasn't safe. Just check it out. Uh, the last thing I watched, uh, those cowards didn't call it Dear Satan like they should have. Well, they were going to call it Dear Satan and then they chickened out and changed it to Dear Santa because of, you know, Christianity. It's funny that I think it's funnier if it's Dear Santa because that means that people might watch it, not knowing that Satan's involved, right? And that to me is way more, that's like entertaining. Yeah. Yeah. People probably get offended. They would. They would get offended in this area, especially it's, it's, it's very much like Jack Black is very much the kind of guy in this movie that he was in School of Rock. Okay. I like School of Rock. I love that movie. Yeah. I love that film. And, uh, it's, it's got that same vibe, except it's Christmas and he's Satan instead of a, you know, school fakes. So he's like a good Satan. Yeah. I mean, you just got to watch. He's not like little Nicky. It's not like bad. No. He's a, it's safe. Bad. If you know what I mean. It's kid. How many times does he mention Popeye's chicken? Not at all. So I think it's not a head of its job, man, head of its time. Yeah. I think it's not authentic though, since he doesn't mention Popeye's. Right. It's not a cannon. It's not. Yeah. It's not Christian. It's not Christian Cannon. It's not little Nicky Cannon. But anyway, um, that was fun. So I do. I did like it. And then the last thing was, um, over the weekend, uh, buddy of mine had to, on my holiday weekend, I got, I had to do a little work because we had a bit of an emergency that I had to solve, but. And so the guy that Josh, my friend that I work with, it's kind of my supervisor. After we got done talking about all that, he was like, have you seen this show on Peacock called T cup? And I said, no. So he said, you should watch it. We burned through it in one weekend and I think you'll like it. So Tony and I watched T cup and what the gist of this story is, is you've got this, though. So the woman that plays the mom, there's a mom and a dad and two kids, a young boy and a teenage daughter, they all live in this remote sort of area and she runs, the mother runs a veterinary clinic, um, for like horses and stuff because there's a lot of farmers and shit out there in that area. And so she runs a vet clinic and it's not apparent what the dad does, but they're having some marital problems. He had been unfaithful to her at some point and she's still not over it. Doesn't want to talk about it. And at some point, all the animals in the area start going crazy. They have a neighbor whose faithful dog runs off into the woods and then another neighbor shows up with a horse that has hurt himself on some barbed wire, trying to scratch his face all up and it's gone, oh shit, Wilbur, my face, my beautiful face. But he, he brings them, he and his wife and their kid, son come and then another guy comes saying, Hey, our dog left and, you know, uh, then one of the, one of the main characters goats, baby goats wanders off into the woods and their youngest son, whose name is Arlo, he's probably about seven or eight, goes after the goat and walks off into the woods to get to chase the goat. And it's, so it's all been in there. It's all been kind of busy and crazy and they don't notice that he's gone until he's been gone for a little while. And so everyone there decides we're going to go out into the woods and find the kid because now not only are the animals gone crazy, the power's gone out, there's no cell service. He's just really strange and so they go off into the woods looking for the kid in all different directions. And at one point, it cuts to this dude who pulls up in this old dog, a Plymouth Reliant K car and gets out of it and he's wearing a, he's wearing a homemade gas mask and you see him take out a paint sprayer and start spray painting this blue line and he just walks off into the woods spraying this blue line on the ground. And then a few couple of scenes later, they found the kid, but he's talking funny, he's acting weird, something's obviously wrong. So they go, but they, cars won't start, nothing works. So they're going to try to leave to go get help, to go to a hospital. And as the dad and his buddy are walking down the driveway to leave, they happen upon the dude in the K car and the guy gets out of the car with his mask on and he holds up a white board that says, don't cross the blue line and he's got a gun. And that's, that's the premise of this one, the stuff that happens after that is stuff that you just have to wait and see if you watch it. But I do recommend it. I had a really good time with it. He did, it's eight 30 minute episodes, so it was a really quick watch for us to get through in one day. Yeah. It's on, it's on peacock and you're shooting platform of choice. So four stars was in say, check it out. I do recommend it. It's a good watch with the spouse. It's a good, good suspense film or TV show. It's not, it gets to the point. It moves pretty quickly and everyone in it has been pretty, pretty enjoyable. So I definitely give that a thumbs up and I play a bunch of overwatch as usual. And aside from that, I think I'm pretty much tapped out on news for the week about you Dave. We've been up to you. Outside of Thanksgiving, a lot of the, a lot of the same stuff. We had a good Thanksgiving. Over to my mom's. My sister, brother-in-law, they were in and we got the hang out. It was good. And we were there for a long time and he didn't feel like it. That's, I love it when that happens. Yeah. And we were leaving and it's like, well, it's nine 30. We should probably go, um, Henry had a lot of fun, um, his, I'm tired today. I took a bunch of time off from work. I mean, I see a bunch of time, but I took one day off to stretch out, you know, the 30th of Friday and then the weekend. Um, and the last part for Henry's PC for his birthday and Christmas came in yesterday. So I was late putting that together. Um, that's, it's a pretty, it's pretty nice. It's got me wanting to build one. Oh, is that right? Oh, yeah. For sure. Yeah. So maybe next year. I know I had a lot of fun with this build that I did, just putting all that together. That was, that was fun to get into that again. Man, I was more meticulous with this fucking build than I have been with any of mine. It's like, I never have, I've been like, oh, I'm going to, this is sad, but never have I ever been like, oh, I'm going to move the mounting brackets to make sure that every, like every screw in the board gets, because usually it's just like, oh, whatever. It's, it's just got the corners in the middle. Yeah. It's just way of the case. It's going to be fine. Um, but yeah, man, it's good. It was my first time with a, um, uh, with a liquid cooler, um, which I was nervous about that. Oh, but I didn't know you were doing a liquid cooler. I wasn't. And then John's is already free. So this is cool. And I was like, yeah, it's cool. It's already like pre-filled with the coolant. Yeah. All you got to do is just install it and put it on the proc, right? Yeah. But I'm, yes, but I've never had to do anything with like a radiator. Okay. Um, and that was fine. That was easy, but other than like, um, and I never really had to mess with RGB. Oh, yeah. Cables. I've had that. So it's like, what are these? This is weird. All right. And then, um, my biggest complaint about it was I got it all put together and, um, everything's in the case. I like the case. The case is nice. However, the exhaust fan, there's a short in it. Oh. So I had to take some tape and find the right position of the wire, essentially just tape it. But it's one of those where it's like, I'm like, I don't want to take everything out of this case and, you know, try to fix this. Right. Just hope it will work with it. Or RMA. I definitely don't want RMA. And then wait and then have to start all over. All right. So it would die. Yeah. Um, other than that, man, um, been playing well classic, um, then playing that some more, uh, slow going, but that's fine. I don't even know, um, what I will do when I get the cap, if I get the cap, because I doubt I'll want to rate or anything, um, more Diablo one, finished Diablo one, going through it again on nightmare, more Disco Elysium, uh, caught up on Donda Don. I've got, I'm one behind. I didn't watch this. Last episode. Didn't watch the most recent one. It's really good. Okay. Yeah. I'll watch it tonight. It's, it's really good. I was debating last night, do I want to watch Silo or do I want to watch Donda Don? And I was like, I'll watch Silo. And then I was like, I think I should also watch Donda Don, but then I changed my mind and went to bed. So. It's a very good episode. Okay. Good. It's a very good. So far I haven't been disappointed with any of them. I haven't either, but last, there are build up episodes and last episode was a build up episode. Okay. All right. This one's, this one's a payoff episode. I'll check it out. That's good. Uh, I mean, you can't have a good payoff without the build up. Right. So I appreciate the build up episodes as well, but you know, payoff's where it's at. Yeah. All right. And this one delivers. Um, played some D and D. Um, playing that Druid and Curse of Strahd, that is a really, really good game. Curse of Strahd's a really good mod, a really good adventure. Um, every fucking session, I'm like, and this could easily, like this could be a wipe. We need to like be smart. Um, and yeah, sure enough, last session, it was like, yeah, this could be a, this could be a white, this random encounter could be a wipe. Damn. Damn. Yeah. It was six swarms of vampire bats and the swarms are like, besides the large creatures and there's four of us. So it's like in the first round, a swarm suck anyway. Swarms suck. A swarm suck. Real bad. I mean, if you don't have the right tool set, I mean, it's just like right away. Yeah. Yeah. But it's fun. Hopefully I can keep my lizard felt, drew it alive. I like him, but if he dies, then he dies, he dies, he dies, he dies. Roll something else. That's pretty much it. Which you've been up to, Tyler. Uh, let's see, um, listen, I can't remember the title of it. We, we watched, uh, a riff tracks, uh, she helped the title was interesting. I remember what it was, but it was a black and white movie, starring a young Christopher Lee, which was really surprising to see. I may know the movie that you speak of. It was like, his character was a, uh, a college professor teaching about the, the witch trials and the witch trials. And it was, it was about a witch of the stake who suddenly makes a deal with the devil. Jack Black. Yeah. We all watched deal with devil movies this week. And it, which is this whole village and this girl tries to go out to, to study the, the village. And it actually was a decent, it wasn't just like hot garbage. Yeah. Like a lot of the riff tracks stuff is like watchable. Yeah. Is it the city of the dad? No, I don't think so. No. But maybe, maybe it was. I wish I could remember, but it was, it was pretty good. We enjoyed that. And now we want to, I saw that they also had the original Vincent Price house on Hunter Hill for a riff track. Cool. We had to watch that when we have some time. It's city of the dead. City of the dead. New tracks. And that's, that's the one. That is what it does. Yeah. Because it wasn't so much a city as a small town. So it was confusing to me. I'm not going to go see a small town of the dead. Okay. Hamlet of the dead. A student named Nan Driscoll visits a sleepy mess. That's the one. Okay. But see, Hamlet of the dead gets people in thinking it's like a Ham Lincoln vampire fighter kind of scenario. Right. What about Berg of the dead? Now, I bought the Castlevania Dominus collection. Yeah. All that stream. Streamed that. I tried to stream. Did that not work out? John told me that he was trying to help. I reached out to him. I needed to troubleshoot what he said. But my, my internet speeds have just fucking fallen off, especially my upload. Really? No matter what I said, the bit rate, like I just, I don't have to upload a stream at all anymore. You ought to call your ISP about that. Yeah. I'm going to, I'm going to test. John told me how to test the modem and the router. Yeah. I'll see if like, if I get a good connection outside of that, he's like, that'll narrow down substantially. Right. But I mean, they're, oh, definitely like five years. Are you still using that router I gave you? No. Okay. Good. No. If you are, there's your problem. Nope. And even that was still, that was a still a long time ago. Yeah. So that's what I'm thinking. It's probably that. Let's see the upgrade. Okay. But we'll see. If I remember. Because I pay for like, pretty good fucking internet. Pretty good. See, you probably do need the upgrade. Yeah. Because anytime I've upgraded equipment, it's, it's really helped. I've been in situations like that where it's like, man, I'm paying too much to like not have. Yeah. And I have a hard line. Yeah. It's not waffy. It's a hard line into my fucking router that ran into the house. Yeah. So it shouldn't be as bad as it is. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I've got, I've got Xfinity, which is, and it's gigabit speed. Yeah. But I don't get, I have it lately, I haven't been getting it either. And so I'm about to have to make that call myself. And I was going to go out to the place and give them the modem and say, give me a new modem kind of thing. Yeah. Because I just use their equipment. I don't buy the. What do you, I do too. I was buying my own. And then what happened was, it would get out of spec and then I'd have to buy another one. And it's like, this is, I'm not saving any money. Right. Like $3 a month for the, whatever. Yeah. Although I do wish that, you know, what I like about buying my own is where it's like, oh, I can go in and configure. I can like set my network up on a VPN if I want to, as opposed to individual devices. Yeah. I lose that. Right. But whatever. I mean. Sure. It'll be all right. At the end of the day, it's just easier to manage. Yeah. If I want to get on Orange YouTube in Kentucky, I'll just open up, I guess, Nord VPN on my computer. Right. What are you, I'm curious, what are your, what's your down speed looking like? Well, the last time I now granted at the time I checked, I was seeing if we were having an outage. So I was only getting like 300 or 400 down, which is like half of what I should be getting, which should be a gigabit. So I've just got to get like at night when everyone's asleep and nothing's running. Right. Do a test from the modem, from a wired connection on the modem to make sure it's getting the speed that I need. We're not suffering from any kind of like problems and as much shit as we stream all day long. Right. You know, it's doing fine. Yeah. Thank God caps or anything. God. I know it. I have. I do. I got the caps. Part of why I pay for such an internet is for the cap. To get rid of the cap or to get up. Just to make it really high. See, we got the sucks. They took the cap away on our internet, which I was glad for, but I was paying for no cap. Dude, when they initiated that cap years ago, I went down to the office, the Comcast office and I was like, Hey, I don't like this. Right. I'm going to pay to not have a cat. Like, is there a plan, a no cap plan, no cap, no cap. And she was like, No, there's not. And I said, Okay, well, that sucks because I use like a lot of data. Yeah. And she's, and she looked and she's like, you do use a lot of data. You use too much data. Oh, is that right? Well, thank you. I'll be sure to cut down on my. Yeah. It's a me problem. I say. Okay. Cool. And then like, apparently it was a lot of people problem because the cap doesn't exist anymore. Yeah. Well, they had the thing where you could pay them $20 extra dollars a month for to have no cap on it. And then I. Well, when I'm in it, let's end it sugar. That's all going to change. I know. I'm looking forward to this. I can't wait. I'm just curious because I'm getting like 850 down and I think when I was the last time I really checked the right way, I was getting like 920 or 950 something, something in that vicinity. That's about what I pay for and I'm not. Yeah. You got to get that fixed. And my up I mean my upload was like 120 and I got like that's a great upload. Yeah. Like my upload with my upload with my gigabit down is like 20. It's not it's set really low on purpose because they don't want you. They don't want you to have bidirectional gigabit speed because that just opens up the door to streaming movies and stuff to people in an unauthorized fashion. I've got 40 up is what I normally get. Okay. But I called and complained a lot that Nikki called and complained a lot because like any time the street and when I was streaming, anytime the stream wasn't going well, it's like it was like because of an upload. Yeah. Speed. Call in the next morning. I'm going to look into mine too, if I detect issues, I'm going to tell them to come out. The only thing I hate about calling them to come out though is like Comcast especially is like, okay, we'll come out. But if we find a problem, if we don't find a problem or we find something that you've done wrong, you have to pay the hundred dollars for us coming out. That's how that's how media comments like every time every service call cost you. Which is fucking stupid. Yeah, that's stupid. Big Dig Pop Baker is Vaughn was trying to help me out like he's like, yeah, and you're zero and you're zero and now your stream's a zero. Yeah. Oh, great. So just like until that gets fixed, not not sure in portrait or ruin anymore. That sucks. You had a good one on Saturday, right? You had a good stretch. I had a good stretch before it. Yeah. I shut the bed toward the end. Yeah. Because I had to make sure like the kids weren't there doing anything. Oh, sure. Yeah. So I know that impacts because I had 10, I checked my uploader and I had like 10. And I was like, okay, that's enough for me to do 3500. Okay. Yeah. And then like next time I checked after Chris said that I was like at two for no reason. All right. So right now out here in the Holland deck over my wireless to that router, that going over a wireless bridge back to your house, you're only getting 77 megabit down. You should be getting way, way, way more 10 times 10 to 11 times more than that. Yeah. Your upload is less than a megabit. It's a .83. Yeah. So that's again, lots of points of failure right here and here. But even in that case, you should see worst case scenario, you should be getting, you know, free to 400 down and, you know, however much up, but now that's not, you need to call them. Yeah. I had a blood test when it got the results today. You are the father? I am. Yeah. I am the father and I am even out of pre diabetes range, dropped from being point ways in the diabetes to, yeah, being completely out of it by point one. Excellent. Congrats. 35 pounds down out of that, blood works good. So because I tell her, I was like, Oh, since I'm out of range, just my medicine that helps so much, is that going to be covered? She's like, no, we don't document it that you have it. So they can't take it away because it would just go right back up. I was like, awesome. That is good news. I'm happy to hear that because even my executive boss at the hospital was like, Oh, like, yeah, I went to have it compounded. And it's still like $600 a month because they won't let you have diabetes. They won't pay for it. Oh, my God. So I was like, yeah, fuck that. I just wouldn't, I just wouldn't be able to have it until it came back to bad levels. Yeah. But on the upside, I did get the monthly final boss sour in for the month. If you boys want to try it, yeah. This theme is a very different one, not one I expected. Shmoi. What? Shmoi, which is. Is that Michael Jackson? Shmoi. Shmoi. What is Shmoi? So the Mexican candy, the spicy coating in Mexican candy. Yeah. On this. Oh, okay. So it's spicy and sour. Okay. What's the, what's the fruit that it's on? Strawberry, Kiwi, mango, and pineapple. Okay. Rip this bad boy open. Let's see. Oh, here are some plates. I'm going to get a, that's a pineapple, a Kiwi, a mango, and a strawberry. I'll take one down, pass it around. I really am trying to get this out of your hand and over the day. I'll hold it for you, baby. Plate. Thanks, man. So Choco Chica really liked it and it's people that worked or tried it. I have abstained so I could bust that cherry with you guys. Thank you. Because it looks like an advertisement for final boss sour in my office, because on my table, my meeting table is like four boxes open with little packets and stuff. Because I also read that, and it, it works. If people are upset or anxious, okay, that eating something really sour has a reaction to your vagus nerve and calms you down. So I had an associate, an employee who was really upset, trying to do some coaching and I gave him a bag of the sour candy. He was like, eat this while we talk, and you can just see in real time as they, they chilled out. So I think there's definitely something to it. So it's also a coaching tool. Cool. Clean this out. Yeah. I just took the rest of it. Got a green pepper in there and I think this is tilapia. That's the, that's the fun of us sour bag I want. It's tilapia, extreme sour tilapia. Well, you guys want to try first? I don't know. It doesn't matter to me. Pineapple. Pineapple? Okay. All right. Level two pineapple, not a spicy or sour as I anticipated. It's good though. It's good. I like it. I think I'd rather just have the sour. Yep. Personally. Yeah, it's not bad at all. It's got a nice finish. Ian, what next? Strawberry. Strawberry. I like it chewyness and that. That's much better. Yeah, it's nice. Their strawberries are really good though. They really are. They really are. It's really good. What's this tilapia one? Is that mango? Mango. Get that over with. Mango. That's good though. I like that one. There's a little bit more spice to that one. Mm-hmm. You're right. You're different on the edge. It's weird how the different fruit seems to bring out the one or the other characters. Yeah. There's somebody with the opposite. I've got some real spice going on in my throat. Yeah. It's good. I like that one. Not a lot. And then I guess the last one is going to be chewy. That's all I've got. Left. That's all I got left to. Okay. All right. Okay. Wait. Mm-hmm. No. I like the chewy and the franken foods. I don't care for it here. That's weird. Yeah. It tastes like static. Yeah. It does. It really does. I don't taste the chewy and the raw, man. Yeah. That's weird. Who? Yeah. Not fan of that one. No. Me either. Wow. This is used to play. No. No. It's not clean. Strawberry and pineapple were my-- well, I like the mango. Strawberry was the second strawberry for me. Yeah. Yeah. The sweetness of the strawberry off to the-- shmoi nicely. Thanks for bringing that. Yeah. Absa-fruit-ly. Mm-hmm. Uh-huh. You guys want to talk about Toy Story? It's like something Barney would say on a fruit pebbles commercial. What? My pebbles. Oh. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. Help me trick bread. Let's talk about Toy Story. All right, Toy Story, the movie. It's basically the same as the plot of One Piece. Yeah. Exactly. You've seen Toy Story pretty much know how One Piece worked out. Dude, if Buzz Lightyear is in One Piece, how great would that be? It would be great. And he's not just for an episode. It's like for like two arcs. He ate it. Two art buzz Lightyear story. He ate a space man. He ate a space man. Space man. Space man. You know, is everybody in the world seen Toy Story? It made $373 million. Yeah, my grandmother bought this on VHS for my brother and I, and we watched the shit out of it. We watched it a lot when Gage was a boy. I loved this, but I've never seen two, three, or four. I've only seen the first one. I've seen two and three, but not four. I mean, I've heard, I've heard like two and three are perfect amazing movies. Yeah, they're great. And Tarrantino's even come out and said like his favorite trilogy, Toy Story, but that's where it ends. He's like, I know there's a fourth one. I won't watch it because three was the perfect ending. I'm done with it. It's amazing as it is. Does he like him because toys are like really low to the ground? Do you see a lot of feet? He speaks level. I wish I was a door. Yeah, I remember having the thought twice as a kid, playing a game and watching a movie and thinking, fuck, it can't get better than this, watching Toy Story and seeing how amazing I thought it looked and then Mario RPG, like fuck, it can't get better than this on those two counts. Okay. Well, I love it when you find that perfect little, especially as a kid, you find those like comfort things that work out just exactly the way you want and you try to replicate that again and again. Turns out I was wrong. I mean, Mario still holds up really well, Toy Story, not quite as much. Oh, yeah. You know, honestly, like when I was watching it, I honestly, I hadn't seen it in a long time. I've seen it twice before. I remember seeing it when it came out. Huge deal. And I remember liking it. Okay. I mean, I was, I guess this came out in what 95? 95. So it's like I'm 14 years old. It's not. It's like a little, I'm in that zone where it's like, yeah, I like this, but it's neat, but it's also, and it's written well, but it's also, it feels like a, it feels, as 14, it feels like something that's for children. It's not. But I remember thinking like, yeah, this is like a kids movie and I saw it a second time. I don't know. Maybe 10 years later watching it this time. Honestly, dude, I thought it was going to be really bad. Like, I thought it wasn't going to hold up well. It doesn't hold up well, but it like, it holds up way, way better than I thought it was going to. And it's like they're, they're sneaky about it and like, it's like they knew that their people weren't good. Right. But they needed people in the movie. So they were like, okay, we're not going to show many people. And I don't. Yeah. Cause Sid looks fucking weird. Sid looks weird. The baby. The baby. What the drool? Yeah. That looked really weird. Even Andy looked weird. Andy looked weird. Everything. Everything. All the people. The people in the dog. Like the dog. It's funny. Like when they're, when they're riding the dog and I guess they like pull on his, uh, on his eyelids. Yeah. And it's like, it just looks weird. It looks like it's, I don't know. It's not flesh story. It's toy story. It's the kind of toys. Flesh story is something entirely different. But I think it's also in the same way that like, I mean, in sort of the same way as like, of course back then, it was state of the art cutting edge, nobody could believe what they were seeing. Yeah. How beautiful and how. Cause wasn't like the first all completely digital computerized. Yeah. Of its, of its type. Yeah. I believe it is. And it was, I remember, of course, I was, um, 23 when this movie came out and we had a, we had a child who was just the right age to want to watch it. And, and so we got it, of course, on the HS when he was four or five years old. I mean, it was however long it took him to come out with it on tape after the movie was in theaters. We didn't go to the theater to see it. But, uh, I was blown away because I like tech, I like graphics and studying graphic design. So this was like a big deal with this sort of spawned my graphic design teacher at the time to, uh, start teaching some 3D modeling in my classes. So I got to do some early 3D rendering, uh, on ancient, you know, Macintosh computers. Um, but it was a huge deal and of course it was a marketing, you know, phenomenon. Everything had toy story in it. It was just as little fucking aliens everywhere. They leaned as hard into that. The minions of their time, the aliens man planted pizza pizza planet pizza planet. That's like the best part of the movie and it's like, and that truck is in every Pixar production somewhere since. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. That first time I saw a toy story pizza planet was my favorite second. I mean, it's like every time it's like, okay, this is the best part of the movie and every time they're there, it's like, okay, here we go. I like it too. It was the best part. You're right. And they've got the, um, the whack-a-mole, uh, alien machine. Yeah. I love that. Yeah. Uh, and that's in the game in the background. So I was excited to see that. It was like, oh, the best thing in the movie is in the game. Yeah. You can't play it, but I have a pizza planet t-shirt. Yeah. The t-shirt, you know, like the one the kid is wearing in the movie because I agree. I thought, I always thought pizza plant was the coolest, coolest part. I wish we had a pizza planet. I'm surprised in actual, like, to the, you know, cause you can hear over the like loud speakers is say, you know, pepperoni pizza for so-and-so is ready for docking in food bay four or something, you know, shit like that, real, getting really into the, into the theme. Mm hmm. Yeah. I thought that was cool. I'm surprised they have, I'm surprised there isn't one at like Disney World or something. You know, there probably is one at Disney World. Now that you say that, I, of course I've been to Disney since, well, since Toy Story was out and I don't remember there being one. There's the Toy Story ride that's, uh, like a, a, a gallery shooter that's on the ride that you, should have the alien blaster and go through. Oh, they have that. Yeah. Yeah. Usually, yeah, like, we, we got there really early to do it. It's normally, it's like a four hour wait. Yeah. Like it's a dramatic one. It was like, okay, I would have been mad if I'd waited four hours for this. Right. Yeah. But, I mean, it's, it's Toy Story, you know, it's, there's not a whole, really a whole lot to say. I've got some notes, but not a whole lot because, I mean, this is one of those things I think everyone's seen. Well, this cast, God, the voice cast. I think I was going to kind of get into that a little bit. You know, of course we've got Tim Allen and Tom Hanks buzzing woody. And then we've got the dinosaur's wall is Sean, who is one of my favorites. It's inconceivable. Um, yeah, I, from Princess Bride, uh, of course we've got Jim Varney. Hell yes. And the Blinky Dog. Yeah. I, I actually saw it on TikTok, him doing his lines in the studio and stuff and him doing his pitch, trying to find the right range and he finally gets, he's like, yeah, okay, that's it. That's Slinky Dog. He does. He does. He does all his lines. Uh, Don Rickles is Mr. Potato Head. Um, I didn't know the John Ratzenberger is his ham, which is a great pig. Yeah. I mean, that's a good one. I didn't know that Annie Potts was the voice of Bo Peep. Oh, I didn't know that. We got one. I didn't know that. Uh, I thought at first, I thought when I heard the voice today, when I was watching it, I thought it was Jennifer Tilly, get first, uh, cause she sounded a little like that, but I looked it up and it's Annie Potts. And then of course I also didn't know, uh, Laurie Metcalf plays Andy's mother. I didn't know that I recognized her voice and I was like, where have I heard that before? I looked it up. It's Laurie Metcalf. So from Roseanne for, for in screen two fame for anyone who does. So her and Jim Varney met and fell in love. And the Prince married the poor girl in Roseanne. Oh, yeah. There you go. Uh, for God, he was in Roseanne. He was in like the, the fake season. Yeah. Yeah. The Prince of Luxembourg, whatever. Yeah. Let's get in. Well, and let's not forget Arlie Emery is the sergeant, uh, the green soldiers. Oh, I didn't know that. This is a guy from Full Metal Jacket. Right. Uh, the, uh, Frightners. He was in that in a, as well as the guy from Full Metal Jacket. Yeah. He plays. He's that guy. That part. Yeah. Um, and then, um, finally the one that I never really caught was Pangilat as the announcer of the player. Yeah, man. Dude. I'm so glad you said that because while I was watching it, I meant to look it up because I was like, is that, that, that commercial sounds like a comedy central spot. Like he's using that voice. That same like. I thought the same thing and I'm like, that's, that's him. It's Dr. Katz on next. God, I wish. So, um, like I said earlier, it made $373 million in 1995 money worldwide. That's pretty good for an animated film. Yeah, that's pretty good. One thing I found that was kind of interesting was in 2005, a toy story was selected for preservation in the United States national film registry by the Library of Congress for being, uh, culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant. Yeah, man. One of nine films that, uh, designated in its first year of eligibility. So. Makes sense. Yeah, it does. Yeah. Because it was a game changer. Yeah. It, it, it paved the way for, of course, Pixar only got better. Yeah. It just made them even more stupidly rich. And then Disney bought them up from good old Stevie Stevie jobs and, um, there was a lot about this movie that I didn't really want to get too much into, but what they were all just a hit factory until like cars too, I think, because they're first kind of not success. Great. Yeah. And it, they really try to push that like named McQueen shit on me. Yeah. I'm missing cars. I've never seen it. I have seen it. And it was fine. I don't want to. I don't either. It's just not. It's just not. I didn't care about it. You know, it's not that I didn't like it. It was fine. It was neat. I, I look at white name McQueen or like any like scene from cars and it's, it smells like pee. Yeah. Like it smells like a pee soaked mattress. That's like, I just don't, that's, that's the reaction I had. It's like, it's like, oh, cars, oh, God. They could just maybe design for, design to appeal to people who might have pee stained mattresses in their house. Right. Yeah. Because they're on, on the right. Little kids. They're little kids. Right. That's what makes me think of it. Yeah. Um, I feel like I didn't feel as weird watching Toy Story alone as a 42 year old person. I thought that that was, that would be weird. It wasn't. I would feel weird watching cars by myself. I feel like. Yeah. I get that. Yeah. Yeah. You know, it made, that makes sense to me or it's like, oh, sorry. Yes. We found the pedophile. He's not here. But Toy Story is just like, it's just a, it's just a dude. He just preaching the classics. Yeah. It's just a dude. He loves your money. It's just a dude there. So the guy that co-wrote this movie, his name is John Lasseter. And he worked as an animator with Walt Disney. And back in the day, a couple of his friends showed him the light cycle scene from Tron, which to this day is still one of my favorite. I've never seen Tron. Tron is a great movie. It's obviously very dated, but it was very-- The sequel is fucking great. It is great. Yeah. The one I was in was a Tron, let alone the one with the music was by Daft Punk. Yep. And that added a whole new dimension. Perfectly. But the first Tron movie, I highly recommend you see it. It's obviously, it's very arcade, very dated, the 80s, but at the time, it was also mind-blowing. And the light cycles hooked me. I've seen those. Like I've seen clips of those. Those don't smell like P to me. No. They don't good. But he was shown that and he got really into the idea of computer animation at this point. And when he went back to Disney, because he worked at Disney as an animator, and he went to Disney and said he wanted to try to pitch Brave Little Toaster as an animated movie. Man. God, I love computer animation. Computer animated movie to Disney and Disney then fired him. So he went to work at Lucasfilm in 1986, and of course became a founding member of Pixar, which was then purchased by Apple, Steve Jobs, not by Apple, but purchased by Steve Jobs. And they made some short films, and one of them was called Tin Toy, and that got Disney's attention. They got their shorts on Disney Plus, which I thought was really neat that they have those on there. Okay. They have the Pixar shorts on Disney Plus, which is cool. That is really neat. You can go and watch all that shit. So they ended up, Disney tried to buy it, and they wouldn't sell, and most people know the story. Ultimately Disney did acquire Pixar, but not until Pixar had bled as much money out of Disney as they could. And there was a bunch of rewrites, because apparently the script for this movie was a lot darker at first, and the toys were really big assholes. You know how Woody is sort of an asshole? Yes. He is. He's secure. Yeah. He shits all over Buzz Light years. He just can't be happy with a little Bo Peep. I mean, it's just like, "Come on, man." The woman, she's crazy about you. She's nuts. You come over talking to Buzz Lightly, you're fucking shaking. It was a clip from Wikipedia, "Every couple of weeks, Laster and his team showed Disney their latest storyboards. Disney was impressed by Pixar's technical innovation, but less so of the plot. Katzenberg discarded most of Pixar's script ideas, giving his own extensive notes. He wanted a toy story. Katzenberg wanted to add more edginess to the two main characters. Disney wanted a toy story to appeal to both children and adults and asked for a lot more adult references to be added to the film, and then so the characters ended up being stripped of their charm. And they called it the Black Friday incident, which is said basically, "Laster was embarrassed by the current state of the film, later recalling it was a story filled with the most unhappy meme characters that I've ever seen." And this is after all the rewrites that were being shoved down their throats. These toys do jump to conclusions. I mean, the whole movie is based on one or more toys jumping to a conclusion, it seems like, and also because it's like everyone loves, everyone loves Woody, all the toys love Woody, and then they cannot prove that he murdered Buzz, but yeah, they're like, "Yeah, fuck him. He's out. Yeah. Fuck him." And they got straight. Yeah. And they straight, I mean, they throw him right out of the truck. Yeah. There's no trial. He's trying to reason what he's trying to do. Look. And then he's got the Buzz's arm. It's bad, it's real bad. Yeah. And they are flawed characters, which I think is like, it's a good thing. But because it's like Buzz goes through his own thing where he has, I guess, existential crisis where he realized that he is a toy. I like that. That's a good plot line where it's like an action figure who doesn't realize that he's a toy. Right. That's cool. I like that. That's a neat take on it, especially in '95. Yeah. I just wondered if like, you know, they've got these rules, right? They have to stay perfectly still. They can't move around his stuff, you know, and they got to get back to where they were. Meat Canyon's got a really good take on that. I love Meat Canyon. The Meat Canyon Toy Story where Andy's like, "I know you're alive. Talk to me." Oh, I've seen that. I've seen that. They finally... All right, Andy, I'm so glad we can talk to you, even though when a human sees us, they get aggressive terminal cancer. But I'd just like wonder where the rules came from. Yeah. Well, you see, it's because toys don't move and do the things they do in the movie. I think they backwards engineered that one. Yeah, they had to because it's like they have these hard and fast rules that, you know, at some point, you know, we know that Buzz Lightyear doesn't, when he comes out of the package and comes to life, we know that Buzz does not understand nor will he believe or listen to the fact that he is, in fact, a toy. Right. He believes he is the Buzz Lightyear. But Woody acts like he's a moron for thinking that. But like, what did he do when he first came out of his package? Did he just know that he was a toy? You know, just things like that, I get into that. Yeah. Because he had the same backstory and everything that you would think a toy would believe because he was based on a cartoon. Right. Yeah. But maybe that's why. Maybe someone had to have told Woody that he was a toy, right? Or else he would have thought he was really the sheriff. Well, it was Woody based on like my Toy Story Lore is weak. Is Woody based on like a pre-existing character or he is? He is. No, not in real life. In the universe. In the universe. It was a show. Okay. It was like a kids show. So it is just like Buzz Lightyear then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the girl's name? Jesse? Yeah. Yeah. Is the new... Oh, right. Okay. That's his like girlfriend in the show. Okay. Or whatever. Well, the reason I was asking is because, I mean, one logic could be a toy, a pure toy versus a toy based on like a commercial franchise. Yeah. But yeah. But if Woody is... But like Rax on the other hand, he is just like... And just a toy. Mr. Potato Head. Well, Rax on the other hand. It's like a dog. It's like a toy, you know. He's gonna bring up Rax? I'm not a dog. What's it? Yeah. Yeah. What do you mean? I'm not a potato. What is wrong with my body? That would have been great if all the toys just start unraveling. They're psyches just start unraveling when they beat Buzz Lightyear. All the army men at PTSD and they just want to go fight. Well, the thing is though about Rax, he knew that he was a... He's like, "I'm made by Mattel." Well, actually I'm made by a smaller company that was a subsidiary of Mattel. The best joke in the movie. Yes. It's the best joke in the movie. But it's like, "How does he know that?" Right. Like, how does it just baked in? It fits the character. It does. It really does. And because of Sid, you know that the toys can't really die, they just take on whatever parts you add to them and disassemble them and they can act independently. So the legs on the fishing pole has its own personalities, they can exist. So that's the whole thing later on when they melt or die. They can't die. They just continue to exist in Tortures Hell Forever. Well, you know the thing is I've always thought that even though Sid is a very mean-spirited and troublesome young boy, he's creative as fuck. His shit was cool. You know, I get it. I'm the kind of kid who would have reassembled toys or joined things together to make it -- Sure. -- have a feature that he didn't have before. Yeah. And so, yeah, he's blowing him up and he's lighting him on fire and he's melting them with the fucking magnifying glass and stuff. But at the end of the day, if you look at those toys that he built, those creations that they made for his character to have built, really great, really interesting pieces that I like more than the -- Why can't you just go out and buy the erector set with the baby head? Right. That's not a manufacture toy you get. After the movie came out, they had a special baby's head erector set. I was thinking when I was watching this this time, I was thinking, man, they really went out of their way to make Sid to show you that Sid is not a nice person. Because if it was just the, you know, toy disassembling and all that, I mean, when I was watching, I never thought about this before, but when I was watching it, I was like, I mean, that could just be a creative kid. You know what I mean? It's like he's aging out of toys and it's like he's just creative. And also it's like -- He's an abused, neglected kid on top of it that I didn't see, you know, running that one. Right. Yeah, neglected for sure. Yeah. When you're little, you see a mean kid. You're an adult. You see a kid who probably has issues. Yeah. Are you with his parents? Yeah. And they're like, there's something in the background of like his dad being ripped out of a picture or something. There are hints to tell them why he's behaving how he is. And it's funny, too, because honestly, Sid is probably one of the most sympathetic characters in the movie, because you see, at one point, he is playing with his toys. He's playing -- He's like, where are the rebels? Where are the rebels? You know, I mean, he's being -- Even though it's a bit of a dark story that he's acting out, it's nothing you wouldn't see in a movie. And I just think -- I liked Sid. I liked Sid in sort of The Raw, when he's in his room playing with his toys by himself. And maybe in some ways, a way that he would never show anyone else, right? He wouldn't let anyone else see him playing, because I'm too big for that. That's for kids, but he really still does like to play. Yeah. And he's very creative, but he's misunderstood. He's misunderstood and misbehaves. And he misbehaves. Granted, I'm not saying he's a good kid because he's obviously setting things on fire. Obviously a lot of that could be helped if he was being paid attention to in the right way, but his sister is perfectly well adjusted. You know, she's fine, but she's also quite a bit younger. Right. And kids that age tend to be a little bit more -- a little bit less rebellious, a little bit more resilient. My takeaway from it all was rich people are good, like Andy's family, and poor people are evil. Right. Like Sid. Yeah. But they -- I was also like, wait, they live next door to each other, because these like houses are like -- You know, zoning in this neighborhood. They're different. Yeah. But then I was like, ah, Andy's family is moving. You see? It was. After house. There was no -- there was a whole thing at one point. I remember there being this whole controversy about the fact that Andy didn't have a dad, and they never really talk about what happened. Like did Andy's dad just go out for cigarettes and never come back, or did he die? They just -- Did he just -- Did he come a toy? It's witty. It's left out of the story, and the idea there from him was, well, it's not necessary to know. Yeah. But it's like, I still kind of have questions. I just, you know, like you said, in Sid's deal, there's a -- Yeah. I remember watching on the picture. I remember watching on the picture. Yeah. You see -- I remember seeing a video about the hints about it. It's like his dad is sleeping in the, like, in the room, right? And when he busts into the living room or whatever? Because they escape into the den or whatever. Oh, that's right. And it's got the TVs on, and I assume his father's asleep in the chair. Oh, it's mom's new boyfriend. Maybe. Scott. [ Laughs ] See, Sid's dad and Andy's dad are really gay for one another, and they just ran off. It's a American beauty thing. Yeah. They ran off. Oh, this is part of the American beauty universe. Yeah. I see. The things just make a lot more sense. Plastic bag drifts down the street. It used to be a toy. It was also a toy. It was also a toy insentient. [ Laughs ] And it becomes the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. So you were talking about the rules about the toys, like pretending to be toys when people are around. They obviously break that to -- to frighten Sid to get him -- yeah. Which I'll be perfectly honest with you, but I felt like it was incredibly selfish. That gave me, like, a human level. That's going to fuck that kid. Oh, yeah. Yeah, for sure. But, like, as a human, I was like, fuck these toys. Who didn't think they are? Can't treat us fucking humans like that. We made them. The fuck. They're a rule. We're your gods. They're a rule for this shit. Also, it's like, I'm sorry, you can't break that rule for anything, because then it's like -- you can't tell me -- in the next three movies, there's like a life or death situation and what he's not like, oh, well, you know, we broke the rules at one time before, so we might as well, like, get off this conveyor belt going in the front of this. Right. We did it once. Right. We can't ever do it again. Ever again. We all get one. That's toy law. I've seen all the movies, but I don't remember, like, a lot of the stuff from the other movies. That's really the first one. I remember that they -- up to the ones I've seen, they leaned real heavy into trying to make you sad. Yeah. That's kind of the picture, I think. More and more, you know, the Danumwa of, you know, this tragedy is happening and we're sad, and I'm a toy, remember, I'm a toy, and I have a soul, too, you know, they really try to dig it into yet. Yeah. And to be honest, that's kind of a pain point for me. Yeah, no, I totally get it. I like Pixar a lot. I do, too. But I think that -- and I do consider that our animation is art, but it's one of those things where it's like, it feels like -- it feels like -- it feels like -- it's one of those where it's like, man, stop. I feel -- I feel -- I'm feeling manipulated. Right. I feel like you're manipulating my emotions, as opposed to it, like, just happening organically. It just happens because you're containing me. And it's like got great storytelling in it, and like the very, very sad part of Up, which happens early on, is like, incredible. That's incredible storytelling. But it's also one of those things where it's like, man, kind of, but kind of fuck you guys, because it's -- and it also feels like a lot of it feels like almost like some kind of pushback against Disney, where it's like we make -- here at Pixar we make fucking sad cartoons. Yeah. You know, like -- Our biggest emotion is sad. They're whimsical. You're going to laugh, but also, like, we want it to be sad. And it's like, that's fine, but to me, it felt like it kind of became their thing. It really did. Where it's like, I would go see a Pixar movie and be like, okay, you know, what point are you going to try to make me cry in this thing, because I'm not going to try to do that. It's like knowing that you're going to feel shot in Friday from watching the office. You know. Yeah. What are they going to do this week? It's baked in. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And if it's not there, then it kind of sucks, man, because I feel like they're in a weird position, because it's like, if it's not there, like in, I assume, cars or planes -- Oh, yeah. -- people are going to be like, this movie sucks. But it's in cars. It is. It's hard to feel sorry for a fucking car, a sentient car. It's easier to feel sorry for a non-sentient car. I feel like -- It kind of is. That's not a joke. It really is. Because it can't do anything. Right. Like a sentient car can fucking take care of itself. Right. It's just whatever abuse it's suffering. Silent victim. The cars. Silent victim. That's the next cars movie. They don't say or do anything. They just sit there while birds shit on them and people fucking key them and stab their tires. You think you're hurting the car's owner, but really you're hurting the car. And it's sad. Think about it. Think about it. Canada. Interstates. Go out of it. The music. Music in the movie. Fuck you. [laughter] Don't want to talk about it. I fucking hate the music in this movie. I hate Randy Newman. I hate every single fucking song in this movie. But that family guy -- Randy Newman just talking about what he said. That's him. That's him. The man gets out of his heart walking down the road. I hate it. I hate every single fucking song in this. I hate the -- And it's a choice. The piano music style. I hate the voice. I hate the lyrics. I hate the sound of this movie. I hate it. And I -- It's a choice. They commit to it. And it's like that for the rest of the fucking series, and it's just -- it's too fucking bad. Because if I was going to give this movie, you know, four stars for being what it is, and for being the technical achievement and the voiceovers are great, and the animation is fantastic, and the storytelling is well done, and then the music takes it two full stars down 50. I fucking hate it that much. And I know it sounds like I'm overreacting, but his voice and those songs grate on me in a way that I told John -- I assume that I have voiced my dislike for Eric Clapton in the past. I don't like the guy. I respect him as a musician, but it's just not -- he's not for me. I would rather Eric Clapton have done the music for this movie than Randy Newman, because I cannot fucking stand it. I didn't hate the music, but what I didn't -- but what I thought was weird is when it's like, "I'm watching the movie," and it's like, "Oh, and here comes a Randy Newman song." Like, I mean, it's just like -- it's just like -- it's so heavy-handed. We're like, "We're going to sailing no more." But at least God, take the fucking thing out of your throat, man. At least the toys are singing. God, I would have rather it be the toys. Yeah, not me. But maybe them actually singing like someone else picking up the singing parts. Oh, actually, it'd be great if it wasn't musical, and every time they sang, it just cut from being CG animated to just the actors in the boots, where it's just like this very disjointed, like, hard-cut. Or a family guy, I think. Yeah, totally. Sometimes they'll be watching real shit, maybe. Now, I'm always so overdramatic about everything I realize, but this is no hyperbole. I hate every minute of the music in this movie. I hate it from the beginning. And my son watched this movie on fucking repeat when we brought it. And so I just have it burned into my head, and it's never going away, and it's causing me to go insane. Yeah. And I just have developed the talent to physically be able to just tune out the songs and try to just focus on what's going on on the screen, or the dialogue, or something. But when the music kicks in, I just go to my happy place, because I hate it. Crazy. I know hot take for me to just jump into that. Nah. I don't think Randy Newman has a lot of -- I feel like he probably has more haters than bands. Which is weird. How do you become so successful having -- I don't have a problem with them, but it's like -- I also can't imagine sitting down and listening to a full album. You know what I mean? It's like, let me clarify. I don't hate Randy Newman. Or a road trip, man. Let's pop in some Randy Newman. Yeah. I don't mind him. His music doesn't really bother me, but it's -- yeah, it's just like that 45 minutes of it in a big chunk. No. This is like every now and then like -- That kind of person probably watches cars. Yeah. [ Laughter ] Well, there's a lot of country music in that one, I think, if I don't remember right. Yeah, it would be my hell to be trapped in a car with someone who insists on listening to Randy Newman. I've got a Newman head. Guys, I brought the soundtrack to Toys. Oh, that would be worse than an actual like full Randy Newman album, I think. And I don't have anything against him personally. Yeah. It's free to do whatever the fuck he wants. Well, sure. But I am also free to hate it. Yeah. So I just avoid it. Sure. You know, whatever. But yeah, that's my biggest fucking bugaboo with this movie. I can handle literally every other thing in this movie except that music. It sucks. It's on me like nails in my ears, like tin-penny nails being slowly pressed into my ear drums until they pop. And then I don't get to hear anything else ever again. Do you guys have a favorite toy from the movie? The RC car. The RC car isn't really interesting one because it's like -- Not in the fucking game he's not, goddamn it. No. But in the movie, it's like, he's a sentient toy. But when someone -- when Woody has the remote, he is a slave to his remote. Right. Yeah. It's like, what's the deal with him? Like, this feels wrong. Yeah. You know, and it's like, oh, you don't want to go there? Too bad. Yeah. Too bad. You're going forward. You can't move without battery power. Right. Right. You don't have that problem. Like even if it was like walking, okay. Yeah. But -- I'd be saying it made me sad, but yeah, okay. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of like having one of those little remote things about butterfly things and make your wife wear it out in public or something and zap her from time to time and she has no control. You know, this is the car going about his business and then suddenly, god damn it. No, I'm going over here. I even want to. I like -- I've always liked things like that. The remote control car is naturally going to be my favorite because I gravitated to that kind of toy that was a kid. Good pick. Cool. Cute character design too. Yeah. Like, they -- Very speed buggy. Like, yeah, him looking neat, but also, like, cute enough to, like, fit in as a toy. Yeah. That's -- I liked speed buggy a lot when I was a kid. The cartoon speed buggy. I'm not familiar with speed buggy. I was a sentient speed buggy. Okay. All right. Is that what he had? He had a stutter be the ebe debe debe. He would -- everything he would say. He would be the ebe debe debe. You know. Like a motor? Yeah. Pretty much. But yeah, I always love speed buggy and that car reminded me of speed buggy. Cool. Yeah. I liked race car frog. I want to say it's creations because that motherfucker can go. Yeah. The skateboard with the half dude on it was cool, too. Yeah. Yeah, legs with the fishing pole. Or -- and then probably, yeah, wrecks otherwise is probably my favorite toy. Regular standard toy. I was really impressed that when I remember watching it the first time and being like, "Oh, damn." You would think it would be earnest, but no, it was not Jim Varney. It was Don Rickles is the one where it's like, "Oh, shit. Don Rickles is Mr. Bredade, man." That's wild. That's wild. Yeah. He's got involved. Yeah. I know, right? You'd think he would not want to be part of that. So I thought that was really neat. Well, it's like Geico hiring Gilbert Gottfried and then when he sends something offensive, "Oh, my goodness. You're out as the goose." Affleck. Thank you. It's like, you know, you knew what you were doing. Yeah. Don't hire, like, Don Rickles, he's going to be -- it's what he does, like, don't make someone the face of something when you know what they do and they get mad at them doing the thing. All Affleck stuff is weird to me because, like, what you just said, I mean, Gilbert Gottfried. And also, it's not like he was the damn goose when he made the jokes that he made. Yep. You know? It's one of those where it's like, "Okay." Your voice is too distinct, which is why we hired you. But see, then you said stuff we didn't like and now they're going to associate your bad language with our -- With our insurance, yeah. Which the guy that got to be the goose that's still doing it, I guess, it still sounds like Gilbert Gottfried to me. Yep. So, I mean, okay, we just created controversy where there was -- I wonder if they had to pay him out for his voice likeness. Yeah, I'm curious about that to you. You guys talk about the game? Sure. Yep. I had this as a kid, never made it very far. Tough game. It's hard. Yeah, it is tough. It's tougher than I thought that it would be. It's also longer than I thought it would be. It was better on a replay because I remember as a kid, I don't think -- we were playing it a lot and never making it pass like "Nightmare Buzz." This time I did make it pass "Nightmare Buzz." Which is one of my favorite part in the movie is "Nightmare Buzz." That's like the first part of the game where the game really follows the movie. It's like using fucking same dialogue and stuff and then all of a sudden you get the "Nightmare Buzz" level to the point where it was literally like, "I was thinking, was this a cut scene from the movie or something?" Right. And then as you keep playing the game, more stuff like that pops up and it's like, "Okay, you know, they probably just made this up for the game." They made it for the game, yeah. Not the graphics and sound were nearly perfect in this game. The presentation is impressive. And it gave me -- the presentation gave me Donkey Kong Country vibes with a lot of the pre-rendered 3D sprites. Yeah. Obviously, I feel like the developer, which I think is Traveler's Tales. Traveler's Tales, yeah. Like to me it seemed like they thought that a Donkey Kong Country-style pre-rendered graphics would really fit well with Toy Story and it does. It really does. It's like some of the hats, Woody's hats that you collect for continues, those look really good. They look good. They look like they are being rendered 3D rendered real-time. That's really super neat. I think a lot of the Mode 7 in the game is done well. That was really interesting. You sparingly and it's like in some of the platforming levels, there's like a checker board with pieces on it and it's like it moves in perspective as you go. It's not important. It's not an important piece of the level or anything. It's just like a visual flair. It's a great visual. I thought that was nice. I like the inside of the claw machine and then really inside the claw machine where you go into the first person. I hate that so much. I thought that was cool though. I thought it was just a neat -- I thought this game did a good job of having several different game modes where like the Bart Simpson game we played did such a bad job of it. Yeah, this one did it well. It was smooth and it was appropriate. Yeah, it was super was. I just didn't think that that stage really inside the claw machine, I thought it played horribly because it's like and it could have been fixed so much easier. It's a first person level essentially. It's a doom. It's doom. But instead of shooting, which is also a down tick, you don't shoot anything. You just collect the alien minions and then bring them back to the entrance. But it's like all that would have been fine if you snapped to a grid or something because it's like constantly. I couldn't move forward because I was clipping into like the side of a hallway or something. If that had a controlled better, it would have been a much better experience. It also gave me Jurassic Park, like Night Vision Goggle flashbacks which is awful. That's actually where I stopped playing the game because I was like nah, I don't think I'm going to -- because I failed on that level and I was like I don't think I'm going to work my way all the way back to this point to like go through this level again. How far did you get? Oh, the RC level and then it was just like fuck this bullshit. RC was tough. I didn't think it was that. I remember I had a better time. This go there. I remember as a kid, I remember as a kid, would he so drag off the dead horse but the big sprites because -- I was going to ask you, what do you think about the sprite sizes and the skin? I mean, I'm huge. Huge. Huge. Would he is like that Barbie in that Barbie game where she's so fucking tall? Yeah, but he's tall. He's too big. I mean, he literally is half of the screen in height. It's like -- And you can't jump to reach anything. No. It's so frustrating that you're just barely. Every jump is like if you can just jump a little bit higher. Yeah. And that's annoying and frustrating. And then it's also like for a lot of the platforming levels, I could not fucking tell what a platform was because it's like some drawers you can jump on. Other drawers you can't jump on. Some books you can jump on. Other books you can't -- so it's just -- it felt like this constant thing where it's like I'm trying to jump on a book and if it was a platform, I could avoid damage coming in. But you know what? It's not a platform. So it's like I've taken damage. And it's got plenty of gotcha stuff with sharks and planes and -- Yeah. And with that stuff, it's like I was guessing where it's like, okay, is this a friendly toy or an enemy toy? Because it's like in the movie, the shark is not a bad toy. No, he actually -- Yeah. He's the one with the hat. Howdy, howdy, howdy. Howdy, howdy, howdy. That's one of my favorite lines in that. Yeah. Hi, I'm Woody. Howdy, howdy, howdy. I love that line. I think that's great. We have a letter about this game. Okay. The article this time though is very, very short. Okay. So there won't be a whole lot of hogging points. But most of what we've -- most of what we've talked about is here. Brad writes, "I know you will be reading this after the holiday, but I'll say it anyway. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone." Happy Thanksgiving. That it's over. This review is from March 1996 GamePro, which also contains Saturn and PlayStation reviews, N64 previews, and even some PC previews. So SNES didn't get much column space. Nintendo was in the middle of their "Play It Loud" ad campaign, which always trips me out a little bit. George Lord Nintendo needs to come back someday. "Toy Story" by Grease Monkey. We don't have any puns either for the section titles, there's just one section. "Toy Story" by Grease Monkey. The problem with many movie-to-game adaptations is the lack of good original gameplay. Sadly, "Toy Story" fulfills that legacy. Woody, the cowboy hero of the movie, runs, jumps, and quips through 19 levels, most of them platform hoppers. The rendered sprites are large but grainy, and the colorful backgrounds create a toy world feel. Voices from the film pop up often, but the music will have you scrambling for the volume control. Which is true. Now, I like the music in this game better than the music in the movie, but it was really frantic. Yeah. Fast music, which is like, I understand they're trying to set a tone. Right. But man, just calm down, just dial it back. It didn't bother me, but also honestly, I just, I played this today. And if you were to be like, I'll give you $200 if you can hum one of the songs. Oh yeah. I mean, I'd be like, uh, meh, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, I don't know. You got it. I don't know what it is. Very, very basic. The music's very basic throughout the whole game. There's a couple of familiar tunes like on the intro and stuff, you know, but they don't play that shit throughout the whole thing. But that gives the game a star in my book. The levels pose a little challenge, so success depends on mostly on trial and error. Kids may enjoy the simple gameplay, but experienced players will find this story suffers on the small screen. And that's it. This is Toy Story by Disney Interactive. It got a score of 4.5 for graphics, 3.5 for sound, 3.0 for control and 3.0 for fun factor. Yeah. I'd say that's pretty close. Yeah. I mean, I didn't hate this. I was actually surprised by how not bad Toy Story was. I kind of assumed it was going to be really bad. I also kind of assumed it was just going to be a straight platformer. Right. During levels, I feel like I don't know. I didn't love them, but it was also like, okay, I mean, it's fine. This is totally playable. It was a little bit more playable than Beauty and the Beast, but I still had some trouble with the sort of the slow motion jumping almost. Right. It just, it didn't have that snappiness to it. No, no. Everything's very fluid and too movement-y. And that felt like a choice. That didn't feel like a programming error or anything. To me, that felt like, oh, well, you know, Woody's kind of like, "Glanky and Floppy," and it's like, so it's almost a platform element. Right. It's like, it would have been, I get it. The story really revolves around Woody, but it would make more sense to me if, like, from a gameplay factor, if Buzz was the main character, because I feel like he would control so much, he would be so much more fun to control in platforming. Which, give me a Mode 7 Buzz flying through the air, like- Yeah. Well, you do get, and I watched the long play. Okay, I didn't get to, do you get to play as Buzz at some point? You get one level where you play as Buzz. And through the claw machine, you do another RC car one, like, when you're chasing the moving van and you escape Sid's house. You do another, like, overhead, like, RC program style, which I like that. It's not as tight as, like, RC program. Yeah, it's harder control. It's hard to control, and it's like, would it have killed them to have thrown a reversing? Right. As opposed to, like, "Oh, I missed the battery." Turn around. Turn around. So now I gotta, now I gotta turn around. It feels like an Austin power. It's like an hallway. That's right, and I died before I could even make it back to anything. Yeah, fuck it. Dude, also, the RC program level, I almost beat it on the first fucking try, but I thought I did something wrong because I hit Buzz, the object is the hit Buzz, you knock Buzz with the RC car. Right. And he drops a battery every time you hit it. Each time you do it. So it can keep your battery, because your batteries can run out. I got to the end. But I hit Buzz, it takes him so long to mode seven up, because it's like, you're looking top down. So when you hit Buzz the last time to finish the level, Buzz, like, flies up towards the screen, towards you playing, and it takes so long for him to do that that I ran out of time waiting for him to, oh, that sucks. Yeah, so it's like, I did it, I hit him, but yeah, I ran out of time before the level actually ended. Well, so the next one time you do that is when you're on the little car chase in the moving van. Okay. Then in Sid's room, you got to get out of Sid's room, that's just another platform level with different, a different, you know, scene. And then at the end, you fly Buzz, you fly him. What is it like a side landing in the van? A side scrolling, but you're kind of avoiding trees and, you know, up and down stuff. It looks like Angry Birds, or not Angry Birds, Flappy Bird, Flappy Bird kind of. Hell yeah. I play a Flappy Bird, Buzz Lightyear level, but then that's how you get into the van. You know, you fly over the moving van and into the mini van and then they show a really awkward picture at the end, it looks like Andy's having a literal orgasm, like a complicated, like painful look on his face, like he doesn't know what's happening to his body or something. He's got, it looks like it's a scene cut straight out of the movie, but it's a weird spot to pause it and Buzz and Woody are both sitting on his lap because, you know, he just found him in the box, which by the way, in the movie, it's like mom, I can't find Woody. Oh, he's just, he's in the van, you just didn't look. She keeps gaslighting this kid into thinking that he's too stupid to see a giant toy that he literally left laying in the seat and then magically the toys appear in the box next to him that weren't there a minute ago and he's like, oh cool, I found my toys and mom's over there see told you, told you you were stupid. I mean, to be honest, I've definitely been that. I mean, there's so many times Henry has like been like, I can't find this thing and it's like, it's somewhere. He didn't look. It's there's so it's somewhere like, come on. We know the story though. So it's fresh. Right. Leave the kill alone, dramatic irony. But yeah, you fly into the van and then it shows that weird picture, which you have to just look it up, I guess, I'll see if I can find it and then that's game. Cool. It rolls credits. How far did I get? How far is the really inside the claw machine? It's about halfway. Well, it's a little more than half the whole long play. The whole long play was an hour. That's, I mean, impressive. And this was someone playing that wasn't an expert by any means. They were making mistakes here and there or maybe I forgot how to do this one thing. You know, there's plenty of times where you got to like use Woody's whip to do like pit fall style. Yeah. That's another thing where it was like, I felt like it was inspired by Earthworm Jim because it's like there's a lot of like whip, like with the whipping because you whip Woody's pull string. Right. But that was kind of frustrating because it didn't feel as tight as like the whip in Earthworm Jim was kind of like there were times where I would shoot the whip out and it would be like it would look like the ring on the whip was overlapping with the pixel of the enemy, but nothing would happen. Right. That happened to me a couple of times. Also a couple of times you would kind of get punished for whipping an enemy because like you would stun them. And at first there's no like real indication like the trains. The little choo choo trains in the beginning. You hit them with the whip. It makes it so they can't hurt you when they go through you, but there's no indicator that that's the case because they still they're still moving and stuff. Yeah. So it's just like, Oh, okay. So the whip's useless. And then like, I don't know, it was just a weird learning curve on that that I feel like was unnecessary. Yeah, all in all, I was actually like, this is this is this is goofy. This doesn't feel good, but it's not awful until I hit that RC level and then I died several times and it was just I'm out. I'm done. No more. Yeah. And I watched the long play and like it looked creative like when you're in the soda bottle sneaking through the arcade and stuff, but yeah, not I remember the reviews I've read about it. Everybody's like, this game is hot garbage. I don't think it's hot garbage. No, man. I didn't think it was that bad, honestly. And I think that like that like stealth mission in pizza planet, yeah, I'm always like is a pizza planet or a planet pizza pizza planet? It's a really neat idea, but then it was like, Oh, it really isn't a stealth level. It's really just any time you're first down, you're invincible, right? So it's like just be invincible until you don't have to be and then move and then be invincible. Right. Yeah. Press A to not die. Right. I thought it was nice that they let you change the controls because the default is really fucking weird. It's like B is jump and like A is whip or something like that. And it's like that's just not comfortable. You can adjust the number of lives you have. That's neat. That's always good. I don't know what level of like what difficulty the long play I watched played on because they didn't set any options. They just hit start. So it may have just been normal. Yeah. I don't think I don't think there was a difficulty. Is it not? Yeah. I mean, other than like giving yourself more lives. So yeah, they may have done default lives, because I think yeah, I turned up to five cowboy hats. Yes. Yeah, that's how I did max, max cowboy hats. Those are your lives or your continues. Those are your lives. And then you earn continues by collecting stars, yeah. And the stars like, I kind of felt like the level design was a lot of it kind of felt random, like it didn't really feel designed. It just kind of felt like, oh, I mean, it'd be cool if there was a shelf here. And then, you know, and even when it was, I don't know. It might have been the feel they were going for, you know, this is whimsical toys. I mean, yeah. It's kind of chaos. Kind of thing. Right. Yeah. But I don't know. That's just the vibe it gave me. Yeah. There's not a, there are a few levels where you like have to do things in a certain amount of time. There's a timer. Yeah, and instead of a numerical timer, I wish they would have done something like Beauty and the Beast where they had like the rose, but like instead of the rose, it's like Andy's balls are dropping. And it's like magnifying how he was saying, not care about his toys. Yeah. By the time Toy Story 3, I think it is rolls around. He's like a kid in college, going to school or whatever. Did you guys have any achievements? Yeah, I had a few. By the way, I sent you guys a picture of the final picture from the movie from the game. From the game in our discord. Good Lord. Yeah. That's disturbing. Yeah. He's having either, he's either really confused or really good feeling good or both. Dude, there's like me looking at this picture, reminding me like at the end of every stage, it's like a black screen and it shows like how many stars you collected and everything. And he does like flop-y thing and then he like freezes and like turns and looks at the camera and it is so like fucking like upsetting, like you caught him doing something. Yeah. He looks like the liquid terminator to me when he does that. He kind of gives me the. Also the screens between games with just walls of text. Yeah. It's like, don't give you a PNG every now and then as a treat. A little PNG or it comes up on the etch-a-sketch that gives you the instructions. That was cool. That was a nice sketch. Yeah. I like that sketch. And it's but yeah, you're right, man. It's just one point. It's just a black screen with white letters that it reminded me of. It tells you the story. It's like a book. Yeah. It reminded me of toys in that regard. Yeah. You remember toys where it's like before each level, it's like here are five screens of just text read and then I put in a photo of L.L. Cool J. Yeah. And if you skip one, well, you're just not going to know what happens. You can't go back. Right. You hit, you know, which takes me to my achievements. Okay. First achievement is planes, trains and automobiles. Nice. That's a good Thanksgiving movie. It is. We watched it this past week. Awesome. Love that movie. I get through the levels in Andy's room without getting hit by a plane train or automobile. My second, my second achievement is take a picture, it'll last longer. And to get that, you accidentally click the button on the controller before you finish reading the wall of text that's telling the story and giving you instructions. My next achievement is bd, bd, bd, speed buggy. Nice. And to get speed buggy, you go through the desk level where you knock buzz off the desk at full speed, collecting all stars without slowing down and don't hit the wall once. Damn. You should also win a lot of money if you do that. Real money. Real money. Because I don't think it's possible. And my final achievement is you've got a friend in me. And to get that, you see the expression on Andy's face and the screenshot at the end of the game. Woody and Buzz are on his lap and think that Andy might just have a friend in one of them. That's all I got. Nice. I love those. I've got one that kind of ties in with your last one. Okay. Which is here it comes. What you hear a lot in the Buzz Lightyear nightmare stage where he has a line. Here it comes. And he says over and over and over and come already. Come already. Jesus Christ. This, the, I tell you what scared me was, I was, I didn't make it very far in the game, but on the, on the first person part where Woody's walking through the machine. Hello. And then he said it a second time and I was like, this motherfucker better stop. He does not. He says it once in the fucking movie. He says it like 20 fucking times in that level. It's very like clear. It's one of the clearest sounds in the game in it. It's 1995 technology for you, baby. I had my like air pods in and I couldn't hear anything else. And I heard it. No. I was like, Jesus. I love that. You said that. I did not know it was in the game for a second. That's funny. So, yeah. My first achievement is here it comes in order to unlock here it comes. You let your friend play Toy Story and be courteous and let them know that they're doing a great job. But time is running out. My next achievement is there's a snake in my boots, which I always thought was my boot. But then I rewatch it and he says, he says boots seems weird that would be one snake in two boots. I never knew that either. I don't know. Maybe I missed her. They have a snake in each boot. I killed it and I'll put him in my boot for good luck. I didn't say it was a bad thing. In order to unlock, there's a snake in my boots. You play this game on a handheld device on the toilet and you get so excited playing the game that you jump up dropping a hot snake in your boot that you always take off when you're using the bathroom. My next achievement is there could be anything in that balloon. Even a boat, in order to unlock, there could be anything in that balloon. Even a boat pop every balloon in the game that has a question mark on it and you get hit by oil marbles, whatever the fuck is in those balloons. Why do they have a fucking question mark on it? If one of them doesn't have a good thing in it, nothing, never. My last achievement is RC Pro Sham in order to unlock RC Pro Sham, get to the end of the RC level hit buzz, but don't allow his Mode 7 sprite to get large enough for the game to progress you to the next level, RC Pro Sham, which you got, Tyler. First one is Rodeo Clown, something the level where you're racing buzz, there are bouncing clowns that jump up and try to get in your way, but you can rope them. So you rope five clowns as you're trying to race buzz, Rodeo Clown, the next one. My last one is what do you since say, don't open the eighth gate, you'll die. So in Naruto when Guy finally opens the eighth gate, he's able to pseudo fly by kicking air and he's able to basically run up air. In that same level where you're racing buzz, if you just fall, you bounce on the air so you can make it to a platform. So you open the eighth gate and bounce on the air until you eventually just die from it. Nice. Cool. I unlocked that. Yeah. Me too. Yeah. I unlocked that one. Same. How much do you think this game is? If you were to buy it, again, we're talking about Disney's Toy Story. In the Beast got me last week fucked up, I'll tell you, I, this will help you. I own three copies of this video. I had this as a kid, so yeah, yeah. Three dollars and this economy, 750 actual retail value of Disney's Toy Story for the Super Nintendo loose on average, according to price charting.com at the time of this recording is $10, 64 cents. Tyler got that one. Close. Is it worth it? Nope. What about a $10 steam remaster? What about that? No. Still. Yeah. I don't care enough. Okay. A $2.99 steam sale, steam remaster. Maybe. Maybe $2.99. It depends on what they do. You have to do a podcast about it. Yeah. Well, they, they put Randy Newman's music into the game. Everything else is the same. Wouldn't do it. You'd unlock Randy Newman and he's like honking, honking isn't evil too, but you have Randy Newman. But when he's real full size, Randy Newman, you just walk through love and all the toys are just flopped over because he's a real human. It's like a rampage. Yeah. Ran page. Ooh. Yeah. It's there. I like it. What are you guys saying, flops, he has to say about Disney's Toy Story? Three Stars Common is my guess. I'm good with three stars. Dude, I might say very common because like I didn't try to buy this game. I honestly didn't try and I own three copies of it. That like has to be very common, right? They're just giving them away. Or maybe it was just in this area like every kid had Toy Story. And hated it, got rid of it. Yeah, I'm good with that. Three stars, very common. What do you think, Tyler? Yeah. Alright, man, that was fast. Three stars, very, very common. According to Flopsy, aka the ultimate Nintendo guide to the SNS library, 1991 through 1998 by Pat Country, courtesy of Monster Mode Mike, and a shadowy mysterious benefactor. Toy Story, parentheses, Disney's. Flability, should have gone with you Ian. Common. Common. It is common. I'm sorry. Let us astray. It's okay. Three and a half stars. You know, I was gonna say they'd give it three and a half stars, but I was thinking maybe they'd be. I'm not good with three and a half. I'm not either. Three is I'm okay with. I could accept that. Three acceptable. Three and a half. For whatever reason, that half star. I don't know, man. I like it. There are better games that are three and a half stars. Yeah, and I don't like it being that close to a four star. Yeah. No. It does not. It does not. It doesn't feel right. Well, I think we're pretty much down to other than Home Alone 2, I think we are at Super Godzilla. Okay. Alright. What do we want to do? We want to do a Godzilla. Which Godzilla was the one that came out around the time that the movie was released. The Matthew Roderick one. Let me see if what's based on. So it was released in 1993 in Japan and in North America in 1994. It's based on Toho's Godzilla franchise and was developed by Advanced Communication Company. So I guess whatever Godzilla is closest to the release date. So we would say, July, I will say Godzilla movie, July 1994, Godzilla versus Space Godzilla came out in 1994. Alright. We might have a little trouble finding that one. Well, in 1993 for the Japanese version, there's Godzilla versus Mechagodzilla 2. I'm literally down for either of those, I'm down for whatever. You just name a Godzilla movie, I'll watch it. Well, Godzilla versus Destroyer is currently setting at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, the 1995 release. Wow. That one sounds, that one sounds good. So the one that came out, there was one that came out in 1998, it's more like mainstream if that floats your boat, is the one that has Matthew Roderick in it. It was developed as directed by Roland Emmerich from movies such as Independence Day and various disaster movies. All the big disaster movies you've seen, he lately in the last 20, 30 years, he's directed them. What if we just said the OG Godzilla? Do we could do that? Based on that franchise, go with the very first one. We could do that. Sure. I think that's a boring one, but yeah. No. I mean, I don't know. I feel like I've seen that one. Should we make it a poll for the next two days, they can ask us, what Godzilla should we watch? Nah. Are we talking about the 1954 Godzilla? I have no way back that far. That's the first one. All right. What is best Godzilla? Gojira. Now there's the newer Godzilla movies with like King Kong and King of the Monsters and stuff. Those are great. Yeah. I heard like the most recent ones really good. Oh, I haven't seen that Godzilla minus one or something. Yeah. I haven't seen it. It's good. You want to watch Godzilla minus one? Yes. Okay. Let's do it. None of us have seen this one. We've never seen it. All right. And I've heard really, really good things. All right. Let's watch Godzilla minus one and we'll play the game from 1994. Okay. Cool. Good idea. Oh. Is that anything else? Is that good? I think that's it, right? I think that's it. I think that's it. Thanks for listening to everybody. Oh, Tyler. Oh, yes. If you're in this game. Oh, yeah. Shit. It sounds like a feel about it. What kind of beer would you get it? Yeah, I know. But Heather was almost a stinger. Shit. Don't mind. Keep going. Keep going. We'll do this thing. If I were to give it a beard, I would give it the melted plastic beard of one of Sid's toys as the plastic sloughs off its erector set frame. Hell yeah. Sexy. Yeah. Tyler, if you were to give this game a pair of glasses, it sounds like how you feel about it. What kind of glasses would you give it? The glasses that frame your eye as a tear wells up in it, as Andy's mom watches her husband leave her and she weep and she is now a single mother trying to raise a son by herself and go, "I'm a toy a year." Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Not realizing the trauma she is causing her son's existing toys. Yep. What's that fucking bitch? It's very selfish of her. What do you have to hierarchy establish? That's the Laurie Metcalf for you though. Yeah. Damn Jackie.
