Of course, it could be argued that Lightyear probably shouldn't have been made in the first place, or that it should have been completely and utterly different, but I appreciate the fact that your version isn't a complete rewrite. By simply tweaking the events within the boundaries of the movie, you showed how Pixar could have done so much better with the same material.
Interesting. I would tweak some things, like drawing story elements from Buzz Lightyear's packaging in the original Toy Story, and maybe adding Zurg's superweapon as a major plot device. And I would maybe replace some of the characters with characters that show up in Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. Like making Buzz's reluctant partner be Warp Darkmatter, which would strengthen the emotional stakes of the Series' Pilot. As it stands, Lightyear also failed at tying its continuity with the other Buzz Lightyear canon presented in other Toy Story material. Then it would frame the animated series as an animated Spin-off like "The Real Ghostbusters" animated show that was a result of Ghostbusters' popularity. I would also consider include a scene that resembles the opening for Toy Story 2 from Rex' video game, further selling the idea that this movie exists as a movie Andy would have seen. At this point, I do realize that adding these things do deviate from the premise you set for offering a solution, but I think these additions and changes would add to the suspension of disbelief.
Your version works as a Sequel I feel. I think the Movie should have been about Buzz as a Cadet in Star Command when Zurg declares War against The Organization He helped found along side Buzz's Father
great rewrite what I would do to improve it is that the moive should have many different species of aliens working for star command not just humans, maybe include the green aliens from Toy Story. it made the movie feel empty without seeing aliens working with humans like in the star command series
Awesome. I would have added a time limit for beating Zurg for drama. The shield protecting the colony will eventually run out of energy. Buzz and the others have to bring the ship down before the shield turns off otherwise the ship will fall on top of the colony killing everyone.
I like this retealling. I personally don't mind the time dilation, but they should've done it better. Maybe in my version, the human race is colonizing worlds in space and hasn't yet developed travel into hyperspace, with the Space Rangers in a war against the alien empire of Zurg. Buzz and his partner Alisha are in a big space battle with Zurg that results in Buzz and Zurg going into hyper speed in Zurg's ship. Buzz arrives in a future where humans have formed the Galactic Alliance with many alien species. The war against Zurg's forces was won and Buzz was believed dead and hailed as a hero. Alisha is long dead, succeeded by her descendant Izzy. Buzz struggles with adapting to a strange future and survivors guilt. Meanwhile Zurg's forces who have gone into hiding, have found there leader alive and Zurg resumes his war against the Earth and the Galactic Alliance.
Actually pixar has given the official name of Buzz's father. in the lightyear deleted scenes, we see parts of a rejected version of the film where zurg is buzz's father, in there the director say buzz's father is call Larry Lightyear, name after an early version of buzz lightyear from toy story call lunar Larry
@SkintGirafde yeah, you can actually find the deleted scenes on youtube. It's about 20 minutes and somehow way better than the actual film, in my opinion. pretty cool ~
Yeah, I'm sure more people would have loved it if it were more vibrant amd colorful like some sort of Saturday morning cartoon or Pulp magazine. Maybe if it had that Spiderverse animation.
Those jerks copied my story I mentioned on new video. The way it is like that is because Disney/Pixar steal from other's works online to mess around since Internet is compromised. I had better when Light-year lied.
Your audio levels are inconsistent. If you use Davinci Resolve for your editing it now has an automatic audio normalisation feature for UA-cam. You click the toggle on export and it will make all the audio roughly equal in volume to match UA-cam's requested levels. If you have background music I'd suggest separating the tasks so your voice is always easier to hear than the music. I wrote a longer comment on how I think Zurg could have been improved further, but maybe the language tripped something because the comment was auto removed.
for starters i think the movie should have had the same tone for most of the movie as the first 2-3 min of toy story 2 as that felt more like a buzz lighter year movie then this movie did.
I already made that movie called Ranger Rad which Pixar copied and toyed with after I tried getting help with story for 10 years. It was uploaded in 2021 as Pixar was screwing around.
Ranger Rad had better male lead, two better villains, a more fun story while shorter, and a three way war in space. Had to do all the drawings and story work when this stupid world failed me.

Yeah but if it was never made we wouldn't have gotten zurgs theme

*Watching the lightyear rewrite, but I take a shot every time I see Zurg smash his computer*

Wow. Now that is a Buzz Lightyear story!

Your version of the movie sounds like something i would actually watch
i agree
Politicians that does sound like a parent who would disown his own’s offspring after that.

You know I think Jurassic World Dominion also deserves to be rewritten! 👍
That was an excellent rewrite.
This really wasn’t bad. I’d definitely watch it
I got a name for Buzz’s father
Neil Lightyear
Actually pixar has given the official name of Buzz's father. in the lightyear deleted scenes, we see parts of a rejected version of the film where zurg is buzz's father, in there the director say buzz's father is call Larry Lightyear, name after an early version of buzz lightyear from toy story call lunar Larry
Really? Holy shit I was way off!
@SkintGirafde yeah, you can actually find the deleted scenes on youtube. It's about 20 minutes and somehow way better than the actual film, in my opinion. pretty cool ~
And his brother is Tempus morph.
Or Tempus lightyear.
Either way, it should’ve been made, but doesn’t matter right now.
The production design was not good, the grounded and gritty setting and tone made the iconic buzz suit looked very out of place.
Yeah, I'm sure more people would have loved it if it were more vibrant amd colorful like some sort of Saturday morning cartoon or Pulp magazine. Maybe if it had that Spiderverse animation.
@@tjsmith5276 something like The Fifth Element, Beyond Good and Evil or the Ratchet & Clank games would have worked well.
@@KaeMcSpadden yeah!! The upcoming 'Super Mario Brothers' movie looks like it's about to be what 'Lightyear' should have been.

why is the audio so quiet at some points in the video?

What about little green men
I would say that this sounds much interesting
Star comand just doesnt save their own people 😂
It would have been a lot better this way.
