    He was stealing his sister’s toys and fucking with them in ways that scared her. Lad isn’t innocent.

        I feel like this is like the natural world, no he didn’t deserve it, but the toys were also just defending themselves

        He seems to be doing pretty well in the third movie.

          All we saw was that he was a garbage man now and likes music. Just because someone went through something crazy doesn’t mean they will never work a day in their life lol

        Because the movie already heightens the toys to being alive the punishment is probably more representative of the emotions and desires of vengeance his sister had.

        If he did the shit he did on a puppy, y’all would be saying he’s a future serial killer.

              […] she’d be a bike*.
              Apparently, the usage of “bike” is important in that joke, because it’s a British slang for “slut”.

                Good to know but I’m sure they’re about the same because the intention is “people ride her”

                Then again slang is slang

                  I know I’m being pedantic, but that’s the word used in the video and that’s the slang term, specifically “bike”, probably because it sounds more punchy.

                  Nice bike

          I took apart my toys and made new toys out of them all the time when I was a kid and several decades later, I appear to be a normal member of society without having committed a single murder.

      My friend’s sister took a permanent marker and wrote her name and drew a stick figure on his G.I. Joe Terror Drome toy (one of the most expensive in the line at the time). No one hoped she would be haunted by Cobra action figures for her crime.

      I enjoyed that part of the story. I like to imagine he picks items out of the trash that could be reused in his projects.

        He even enjoys his work, it’s one of the most thankless ones. we see he enjoys music while working.

        Since he learned that inanimate objects are alive. What job would he go for? Bro isn’t fucked up and working a crappy job. He is trying to save the toys he finds

    How about the whole villains-have-rotten-teeth thing? When this came out in the theaters the first time, my best bud had bad teeth from growing up poor and neglected. Fucking felt terrible watching it.

      There’s the thing where the poor/neglected tend to have a higher rate of mental health issues, for… Obvious reasons.

      Villains are stereotypically older fat queer bald men (e.g. Vladimir Harkonnen). These are all factors people have little-to-no control over.

      Media will sometimes subvert those expectations, but most of the time the iconography matters more to the filmmaker than decency. It’s quite fucked up the insecurities these portrayals breed, no amount of positive affirmation will make up for the fact that some natural body types are fundamentally associated with villainy in the Western visual canon.

      Villains in Don Bluth movies don’t have rotten teeth.

      They have big teeth.

      Even if they’re penguins.

      Clearly you should have taken your friend to see The Pebble and the Penguin and showed him that brushing can lead to villainy.

      (Okay, the first guy had missing teeth…)

    Nah Sid was a little shit. Hopefully he gets therapy for the toy stuff and they home in on why he’s an asshole.

      And?

      Those are supposed to be inanimate objects. You know how many toys a kid destroys out of their curiosity and experimenting?

      AFAIK he loves his dog and it loves him back (that’s a win in my book), and he hasn’t done anything bad to a single living thing (beside messing with his sister, but who wasn’t messing with their siblings when little?).

      To him, the toys were just as inanimate and lifeless as the M80s. To take it a step further, if the M80s were also sentient he still wouldn’t know.

    Also the 4th movie shows that something is alive if it’s considered a toy/played with. So Sid did consider his creations toys that he played with.

    Justice for Sid, but burn whatever English teacher failed this meme maker.
