From the PoV of the Toy Soldiers, it was a Kaiju movie, they were sent to avenge their creator; a monster of great size who could hand wield weaponry as big as naval guns. for the final commando, he was the last man standing, to avenge both his creator and his fallen comrades.
I love how there's a lot more military accuracy to the toy soldiers compared to other action movies and just prove no matter how big the foe is the will and the termination can be the most dangerous weapon
The way the door gunner pulls the charging handle at 8:00 a couple of times to clear a jam shows more attention to detail than most realistic war movies.
I love the idea of a hitman, being so good at his job, and quite able to take down numerous high profile, political targets, with little to no resources, and then being mercilessly overwhelmed and taken down by a bunch of tiny little toys
@Basleal S I never said he was a soldier. I said he was a hitman, which is pretty much the same as an assassin. Also I was just pointing out the irony of it all.
I am unitonically surprised by not seeing comments on their bravery as the authors deliberately made them humain by giving them characters as you can see by one soldiers taping the other one on the shoulder, or them being bored around the cannon while watching the door they expevt him to appear from. What I can say is that they all as one fought for their factory stopping the crimminal from bringing destruction in this world, and the SF (commando) guy probably knew for sure that he's not coming back, as most of the SF guys back then. You can make a parallel with GWOT or Chechen wars but that would be too far-fetched even for irony. As to how they see their factory director, probably more like a godlike than a leader of father fogure for he created them all, not only the soldiers, but also their fellow 'people'. And holy shit 192 likes, and as I finished this comment already 200. Glad you share empathy for those little green guys with me, internet bois.
While it's not really the same premise, Small Soldiers is a a movie about a sets of "Commando Elite" toys gaining sentience and attacking a kids house because he's "Harboring the Enemy". That could scratch the itch of "Fun-Sized Warfare" for ya.
This was one of my favorite Stephen King short stories. The premise is completely absurd and yet is executed so well because of the hitman's competency and realistic reactions to something so fantastic and impossible.
Theory Given that the address was written in the mom’s handwriting, I believe that the mother did something to the toys in order to protect her son or at least avenge his death
@@gogglesveemon5551 Seeing the age of the toymaker and the picture itself, I would think the mother started the company and is long gone, but she originally did something to the toys or somehow got imprinted into them after departing, definitely some supernatural stuff going on there.
@@aetherfaust5907 It fits, the toys at the office would know how the assassin looks, the ones he encounters in his travel back kept tabs on his route, the one in the showcase confirms location.
The problem is, the killer was only the "weapon" wielded by the one who hired him. Sending the toy soldiers to the killer's home alone would not resolve the revenge.
Yea there should be a continuation for the one who had ordered the killing that would be dope. And then actually get into dept into the toy soldiers and their characters having to face off with the bodyguards and such.
@@InfamousX1000 When there are female soldiers in a movie, the movie will show them, Especially. because why wouldn't they. Lmao I do in fact making fun of movie's trope
Imagine the following horror: the hitmans' victim was not a toy factory owner, but a fanatic tabletop miniature collecter/3d modeller... Even some Warhammer40K factory-make titans are two feet tall, and their guns' size are similar to a real world pistol/SMG. Plus bonus suprises: tyranid invasion pack, Exterminatus, or greater daemon... Or a hardcore amime-fan victim. Macross or Gundam mecha models (plus heroes/heroines with minimum 20cm long sharp magic katanas...) are also fun to watch.
War Hammer 40K Emperor Class Titan are huge. Orcs are a plague that can continue to live even after killing it. I'm amazed you mention Macross. I'm kinda young and next to nobody knows it in my entourage.
Nah, you underestimate the stopping power of modern weaponry. Cloverfield had the same issue- a strafing run from an A-10 would've punched right through the brain casing and Maverick missiles (which can level buildings) wouldve easily blown off appendages. The scaled power of the weaponry used by the army men is not correct, basically; it's too low. Makes for fun storytelling though.
@@youllknowme2079 there you go. Yep, a few BLU 109's would've done Cloverfield just fine. Only problem is it's a mobile target, bunker busters don't do so hot on those, as they're intended for use on stationary targets. That's why I suggested Mavericks, which work just fine on vehicles.
What I want to know is how no one else in that apartment building heard any of what was going on. Seriously though, massive props to the digital and practical effects work.
I just imagine his upstairs neighbors having their stereo turned up to the max and the downstairs neighbors coming home from vacation to find that their place is full of bullet holes
For those who are questioning the validity of the Thermal Nuclear Weapon. The toys are modeled after Vietnam soldiers. During Vietnam, there were "commandos" who were trained to carry a backpack sized nuke into enemy territory. The "commandos" who were trained to handle said devices earned the Missileman Badge/Missile Badge, and were part of the US Air Force.
@@Blobby192 can you prove that it's a lie? I found something on Google called "suitcase nuclear device" that's pretty much what this guy just said, but I can't really find how it's related to Vietnam
Don't know where you got your "facts" from but you are totally wrong. No troops in Vietnam or any other conflict were trained to carry a suitcase bomb. The Missileman Badge was worn by airmen that were assigned as missile operations or maintenance crews (i.e. Titan, Atlas and Peacekeeper ICBMs INCONUS and Pershing Missiles in Europe). BTW, the US military does not use the term "commandos" and never has. The nuclear suitcase bomb was developed by both the US and USSR during the cold war for use as a sabotage or pre-emptive strike weapon by CIA assets, not for use by frontline troops. Their continued development and use was discontinued due to being overweight, under-powered (as far nukes go) and the possibility of utilization by terrorist groups. They were never fielded for use. Former SF member Michael Vickers claimed to have trained to deploy such a device but that wasn't until the mid-1980s. Even if true, that was only simulated in training.
man this would’ve been sick if the toy soldier we got as kids came to life and fought against each other instead of us having to pretend and use our hands
The only problem is his slow reflexes and reactions. Plenty of times he could've taken them out by reacting quickly instead of gawking. Then again, the situation was highly unusual and could've warranted a few seconds of wonder at the very least.
It’s funny how there are movies with little killers being incredibly deadly like these movie, small soldiers and chucky. But at the same time there are movies of giants where human are almost completely useless against them
I guess the goal of most of these stories is to put humans in danger so that the audience has a threatening situation to identify themselves with. "There's a monster. How monster? So monster it would kill everyone." So you overpower the threat. This way the fight becomes more awesome. But I don't want to sound like I didn't appreciate your comment very much. I never saw that difference before.
For anyone who likes this kind of stuff, may I recommend the book: "Toy Cemetery" by William Johnstone. I read it about 30 years ago and just never forgot the impact it had on me. That story was SO AWESOME in SO MANY ways. This movie reminds me of it, a little. It's about a town where evil is taking over the inhabitants and trapping the souls of people inside toy figures. There are toy soldiers, airmen in flying planes, little clowns, ballerinas, knights and Vikings, cowboys and Indians and so much more. They join up with a down on his luck, Vietnam Vet, who has turned to alcohol to fight his PTSD, and an old WW2 vet, turned preacher, to fight the evil and win back their souls. Now that I've seen this, I gotta read that book again! I always thought it could make a great movie, especially with today's CGI.
@@Poodleinacan TRUST ME. It is! I tried buying it on line, and I guess it's a collector's item, cuz the PAPERBACK is ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN BUCKS! WTF?
@@mikeyarmstrong4136 if you can, try going at a place that destroys books (yes, they exist). I worked at one, a small bit. They would get books from places in large quantities or varying books. Who knows the actual value of some of them, if they were to resale them, instead of simply selling the paper to be recycled regardless of the book. From it, I managed to save (while being at a post where we would remove covers) some nice books. Mainly old books, one of them was a book from one of the people running the place, a school book regarding many sciences from the 1850s (I tried checking for scans online and the exact edition/version isn't on there. Mine is considerably better and also better with printed carvings. Seriously, it talks about things ranging from velocity to Space (and how Mars was considered to have a dense atmosphere, back then) and Colt pistol (including the transcription of the user "manual" .... Which is very short) and the transcontinental telegram cable that was in the works)....... But the nice newer book I saved was "Half-Life: Rasing the bar". Seriously, this book goes for around 350$ or more online (and it's in great condition). I also found an old book about manners and etiquette from the 1910s. This one is interesting, because it was made here in Québec and it doesn't mention automobiles (only carriages). Most old book there we can buy are books about clergymen or something. I was able to find, in their books to sell, an old book about treating kidney diseases from 1912. It has recipes for remedies (which are more likely to only make you pee...) and fake pills for people who have nothing. An old recipe for medical soap (which is an ingredient for some remedies). It also mentions mercurial treatment for syphilis and also mentions the doctor that forefronted this treatment. The guy was truly clueless as to why the survival rate was very low, as excerpted. So yes. Try yourself at a place like that. Though, most of the workers at the place I was working at were mentally deficient.... But if you can ask for a request for a book, they will be sure to find it one day or the other.
@@user-db9vy2gh3v The narrator was wrong, he was just knocked out. He was using a tranquilizer gun and it was also different from the gun he used to kill the factory owner.
I was hoping the Green Fairy would have been the one to ultimately take him out, in truth. 'Like he is just hanging on by a thread after the explosion, but then the Fairy appears and finishes him. There needs to be more stories where toys come to life.
Bravery and Honour to all of those Tiny Soilders who fought for a satisfying and True Revenge of the Owner s' Mother who might be the mother of all the toys. Never expected such steer determination and Unity of the Soilders , risking their Own lives. Toys too have hidden emotions of love and Anger like a human as per treatment of their real owner. RIP for those glorious warriors.
_Battleground_ has, and will always be, my favorite Stephen King short story. Renshaw's fight for survival always leaves me on the edge of my seat. Plus, the toy soldiers themselves just sound cool as Hell.
The little things King puts in-like Renshaw feeling pain in his foot, looking down and seeing one soldier repeatedly bayoneting his foot. The soldier stops, looks up at Renshaw with a smile and malice shining in his tiny eyes like two pencil leads and returns to stabbing.
I like how movie criminals take off their mask after entering a guarded building... I mean, there could be cameras - and most probably are - inside too!
@@ikengaspirit3063 I get that he turned off the corridor and front of the house cameras, true, but the chance of highly guarded buildings having all cameras connected to one output is quite slim. In fact why even bother with the mask, he was filmed outside anyway.
@@milotic7339 I understand Scooberton's knowledge on this stuff, and I will admit it is all true older camera systems might get compressed into one output... And I guess it is possible to switch off a camera server like that for some facial stretching after wearing a mask for 2 minutes. Still, I wouldn't bet on it. And it is done in so many movies! I would guess it's because the actor needs the face to act, but at the same time there's not much happening, so might it be it's a cheap way for the writers to show the criminals are super prepared, clever and untouchable to the point they can theoretically take a dump at the same house and have a coffee?
When I was a kid, I used to leave my toy soldiers scattered in places in our house and ask them to guard our house against criminals. I think it worked! We stopped being a child when we got serious in life.
So there are a lot of theories about the supernatural having a part in this, so I might as well as have fun too. Though it is a bit boring. My theory is that the girl renshaw met on the plane was Moris’s daughter/sister/someone of relevence to him. The thing that gets me is her reaction. Its not a look of confusion or awkwardness…its a look of shock. As in she recognizes where that toy is from. And if you pay attention to the timezones, it would line up with the whole movie. Its likely she saw Morris right before he closed and probably kept tabs on what had been sold. Right after, thats when Renshaw showed up and killed him…during closed hours. So, when she saw the toy, she is shocked to see why someone has a toy from Morris’s shop even though she just saw him right before closing. This also explains who was the receptionist that left the package at Renshaws door step. Yes, there are a few questions on how she would be able to find out things like where Renshaw lives, as others point out, the toy fairy is likely a tracker, Notice how it only turns right after he dies. What about having a set of killer toys on the get go? I think the fact that the only time we see her with Renshaw on the plane says a lot. Because he’s not just on a random part of the plane, he’s in first class…and she’s right there alongside with him. Which tells me that she’s a pretty big figure herself. Anyway, thats all I got, thanks for reading : )
Another thing that would support this is if the fairy toy was a part of a new production, and not on the market. Which would make the only way he could get one is to have been at the factory/shop.
I can agree to this, also I think this family of toy makers where dealing with either magic or very anomalous technology (like nano tech) to make said toys and such. We never know who hired the killer, we don't know why we are giving clues but maybe he was freelanced to kill this guy because he was a danger.
In the 90's Twilight Zone did a similar story. Dad was a Vietnam Vet a drunk who suffered from PTSD. Beat his kid for playing with war toys. The toys came to life to protect the boy and killed the dad.
This is one of my favorite installments in the series. What I liked best about it was that it was done with almost no dialogue. Just like one of my favorite _Twilight Zone_ episodes, "The Invaders."
Battleground is one of my favorite weird little King short stories. They changed it a little bit to make it more interesting but not unforgivably so, and the animation and effects were actually pretty good. Love that they kept in the ending twist of the scale model nuke, lol.
@@sir.richardarmstrong3rd759 Crouch end as a story is frickin amazing, big fan of that. Thought they actually did pretty good with it, it's hard to get that one just right.
0:55, Renshaw wasn’t using a suppressed pistol, he was using a dart gun. Darts are subsonic and are normally launched close range using CO2, which is significantly quieter than gunpowder and supersonic rounds and even suppressed pistols.
Thank you - was looking for this - he clearly tranquilised the guards. You can see his real gun ( with suppressor ) at 1:39 after he has actually shot the target.
Honestly, so many details in the video are wrong. The soldiers "threw a cannonball?" You mean they launched an RPG? He even calls an Uzi, a very famous submachine gun, a "rifle".
@@BigRedDraken I think the terminology used determines whether or not the video can be monetized. You can talk about a rifle because hunting. You can't talk about an uzi because that's "a dangerous gun" This is all speculation, but I've seen it happen to a couple channels that use one of youtube's entirely-arbitrary "no-no" words.
As a kid, I wanted something similar to this. I wanted soldiers, tanks, and aircraft from base-building strategy games to come to life and fight. And I want to be the size of those toys in the video.
@@cucadefrijoles735 Now that u mention it, I can recall of a game where u can make strategies to defend a point and be in the POV of a soldier, it's VR, but I can't remember his name
I remember reading this story in a Stephen King book back in high school. I think it was 'Night Shift'. His books were always rare because they'd always get lifted from the library and our librarian quit ordering them. Study Hall for me was always a treat if I had book that I was really into. I just remember how this story ended-two passerby's walking beneath the high rise heard an explosion-and a bit of charred paper landed by them. They pick it up and it reads something like 'GI Joe Vietnam Foot Locker' and lists all of the toys inside. The last item listed was 'One Thermonuclear Device'.

One of my all-time favorite actors stars in this video adaption of King's short story, "Battleground." This is March 2022, and the late, great William Hurt, who had some excellent television roles late in his career to go along with his storied movie career, passed away just three days ago on 03/13/2022. He was excellent in everything he was in, including this fascinating yet scary short film. RIP.
I remember every episode from this series was great! All just as weird and thrilling just like this one. Wished there were more than just like 8 episodes though.
The series name is Nightmares & Dreamscapes. Every episode was a completeñy different story, this chapter is named "Battleground" and it is episode No. 1. In fact this is the full episode but looks crappy: ua-cam.com/video/e_9TrvNzxWA/v-deo.html
Thanks for this condensed story of that program. These green toys will clearly talk to a generation of people who played with them as kids (I did). Hats off to William Hurt for taking this role and not forgetting his inner child... Agent: Hi William, I got this absurd project here... do you want to play against an army of toy soldiers? William Hurt: Yeah, sure, why not!
5:30 ah yes, the “rifle” known as the Uzi is chambered in 9mm in full auto with a high rate of fire of 600-1200 rounds per minute 7:38 the “tank” with just 2 wheels and a gun with barely any armor nor turret Seems legit
although its taken a dark and gritty turn, the animation still is again outstanding for Pixar on this new installment of their beloved flagship franchise.
VFX in that masterpiece are Oscar worth. Check out the amazing perspective characteristic in the macrophotography. It's all there, they think of everything.
Im now slightly in awe of those toys becoming a literal swarm of sentient soldiers that are determined to take down an enemy plus one with a thermonuclear pack inside one to make sure the target is elimanated

I know the narrator called the hitman the protagonist, but I respectfully disagree, those toys are the heroes in my eyes. I was rooting for the soldiers throughout the video lol Edit: Aite, I now know that a protagonist can be evil. A misconception on my part :)
To be fair, we do see the viewpoint of the story in the hitman's eyes. A protagonist can be evil depending on the story (we call them villainous protagonist), the same way the antagonist be the good guys (heroic antagonist). The more you know!

@@renseiryuu yeah. So that would also mean that the toy soldiers would be called the “antagonists” since they are the major obstacles in the main character’s way.

I've always loved tanks, it got me in trouble when I was a preteen because I would be have to take any toy tanks my friends had. It started when I was in hospital, I spent a lot of time in hospitals as a toddler and one of my coping mechanisms was little tanks I was given by family in my hospital bed. I would place them around my bed at night to protect me from the blood suckers who came at night in my sleep to get samples from me. I don't remember them saving me, but they did help with my powerless ness .

@@Drakesonone God probably
I am unitonically surprised by not seeing comments on their bravery as the authors deliberately made them humain by giving them characters as you can see by one soldiers taping the other one on the shoulder, or them being bored around the cannon while watching the door they expevt him to appear from. What I can say is that they all as one fought for their factory stopping the crimminal from bringing destruction in this world, and the SF (commando) guy probably knew for sure that he's not coming back, as most of the SF guys back then. You can make a parallel with GWOT or Chechen wars but that would be too far-fetched even for irony.
As to how they see their factory director, probably more like a godlike than a leader of father fogure for he created them all, not only the soldiers, but also their fellow 'people'.
And holy shit 192 likes, and as I finished this comment already 200. Glad you share empathy for those little green guys with me, internet bois.

Wtf
Would've loved a sequel where another group of toy soldiers discovered who hired the assassin. An entire field army storming the house.
Me too
Or a feature length movie that is hopefully in the works!
This is Like Toy Story and Battlefield
While it's not really the same premise, Small Soldiers is a a movie about a sets of "Commando Elite" toys gaining sentience and attacking a kids house because he's "Harboring the Enemy". That could scratch the itch of "Fun-Sized Warfare" for ya.
I could see that. Imagine them finding out that the clients of the assassin was an opposing company with their own toy soldiers. It's an all out war.
This was one of my favorite Stephen King short stories. The premise is completely absurd and yet is executed so well because of the hitman's competency and realistic reactions to something so fantastic and impossible.
That was my imagination as a kid with those green soldiers.

Theory
Given that the address was written in the mom’s handwriting, I believe that the mother did something to the toys in order to protect her son or at least avenge his death
The question it's how the mother knew it was him? He was using a facemask until the turned off the cameras. Unless the fairy toy had a tracking device
@@gogglesveemon5551 Seeing the age of the toymaker and the picture itself, I would think the mother started the company and is long gone, but she originally did something to the toys or somehow got imprinted into them after departing, definitely some supernatural stuff going on there.
@@gogglesveemon5551 Yeah the fairy toy has a tracking device and camera.
My theory is each toys that bought from the company can communicate with each other, so they can relay their target location through the Elf toy.
@@aetherfaust5907 It fits, the toys at the office would know how the assassin looks, the ones he encounters in his travel back kept tabs on his route, the one in the showcase confirms location.
The problem is, the killer was only the "weapon" wielded by the one who hired him. Sending the toy soldiers to the killer's home alone would not resolve the revenge.
maybe they leave that for future sequel named Battleground: Player Unknown
Yea there should be a continuation for the one who had ordered the killing that would be dope. And then actually get into dept into the toy soldiers and their characters having to face off with the bodyguards and such.

Plus bonus suprises: tyranid invasion pack, Exterminatus, or greater daemon...
Or a hardcore amime-fan victim. Macross or Gundam mecha models (plus heroes/heroines with minimum 20cm long sharp magic katanas...) are also fun to watch.

Cloverfield had the same issue- a strafing run from an A-10 would've punched right through the brain casing and Maverick missiles (which can level buildings) wouldve easily blown off appendages. The scaled power of the weaponry used by the army men is not correct, basically; it's too low. Makes for fun storytelling though.

For those who are questioning the validity of the Thermal Nuclear Weapon. The toys are modeled after Vietnam soldiers. During Vietnam, there were "commandos" who were trained to carry a backpack sized nuke into enemy territory. The "commandos" who were trained to handle said devices earned the Missileman Badge/Missile Badge, and were part of the US Air Force.
lies
@@Blobby192 He not lying
@@Blobby192 can you prove that it's a lie? I found something on Google called "suitcase nuclear device" that's pretty much what this guy just said, but I can't really find how it's related to Vietnam
Don't know where you got your "facts" from but you are totally wrong. No troops in Vietnam or any other conflict were trained to carry a suitcase bomb. The Missileman Badge was worn by airmen that were assigned as missile operations or maintenance crews (i.e. Titan, Atlas and Peacekeeper ICBMs INCONUS and Pershing Missiles in Europe). BTW, the US military does not use the term "commandos" and never has. The nuclear suitcase bomb was developed by both the US and USSR during the cold war for use as a sabotage or pre-emptive strike weapon by CIA assets, not for use by frontline troops. Their continued development and use was discontinued due to being overweight, under-powered (as far nukes go) and the possibility of utilization by terrorist groups. They were never fielded for use. Former SF member Michael Vickers claimed to have trained to deploy such a device but that wasn't until the mid-1980s. Even if true, that was only simulated in training.
so you know its fake
man this would’ve been sick if the toy soldier we got as kids came to life and fought against each other instead of us having to pretend and use our hands
@Deimos - ok
But imagine shooting 10000 holes at your whole hand for not being careful. Depends on what the bullets are made of
yeah i also would like to stop pretending while using my hands
Already there is movie called Small Soldiers.
@Deimos - yeah u just destroyed the fun
Even though Renshaw is the bad guy who started this all, i admire him for having smart tactics and not cliche scared protagonist.
When you work as a professional assassin that much is the least qualification i guess .
Remember John Wick !?
The only problem is his slow reflexes and reactions. Plenty of times he could've taken them out by reacting quickly instead of gawking. Then again, the situation was highly unusual and could've warranted a few seconds of wonder at the very least.
So this is where the Toy Soldiers in Toy Story went...
It’s funny how there are movies with little killers being incredibly deadly like these movie, small soldiers and chucky. But at the same time there are movies of giants where human are almost completely useless against them
Square cube law ig
Well usually those giants in movies are also super powered like human size Godzilla would still have a fucking nuke engine and destroy tanks.
I guess the goal of most of these stories is to put humans in danger so that the audience has a threatening situation to identify themselves with.
"There's a monster. How monster? So monster it would kill everyone."
So you overpower the threat. This way the fight becomes more awesome.
But I don't want to sound like I didn't appreciate your comment very much. I never saw that difference before.
@Shimohira Reika nah a human sized godzilla would be a bullet sponge until bio/nuclear weapon
In Reality we would be able to kill a giant human. As our skin isn't that thick, alot of small insects are able to pierce our skin.
For anyone who likes this kind of stuff, may I recommend the book: "Toy Cemetery" by William Johnstone. I read it about 30 years ago and just never forgot the impact it had on me. That story was SO AWESOME in SO MANY ways. This movie reminds me of it, a little. It's about a town where evil is taking over the inhabitants and trapping the souls of people inside toy figures. There are toy soldiers, airmen in flying planes, little clowns, ballerinas, knights and Vikings, cowboys and Indians and so much more. They join up with a down on his luck, Vietnam Vet, who has turned to alcohol to fight his PTSD, and an old WW2 vet, turned preacher, to fight the evil and win back their souls. Now that I've seen this, I gotta read that book again! I always thought it could make a great movie, especially with today's CGI.
thanks ill check it out
That sounds so cool! I will check it out too!
Sounds pretty kickass
@@Poodleinacan TRUST ME. It is! I tried buying it on line, and I guess it's a collector's item, cuz the PAPERBACK is ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN BUCKS! WTF?
@@mikeyarmstrong4136 if you can, try going at a place that destroys books (yes, they exist).
I worked at one, a small bit.
They would get books from places in large quantities or varying books. Who knows the actual value of some of them, if they were to resale them, instead of simply selling the paper to be recycled regardless of the book.
From it, I managed to save (while being at a post where we would remove covers) some nice books.
Mainly old books, one of them was a book from one of the people running the place, a school book regarding many sciences from the 1850s (I tried checking for scans online and the exact edition/version isn't on there. Mine is considerably better and also better with printed carvings. Seriously, it talks about things ranging from velocity to Space (and how Mars was considered to have a dense atmosphere, back then) and Colt pistol (including the transcription of the user "manual" .... Which is very short) and the transcontinental telegram cable that was in the works)....... But the nice newer book I saved was "Half-Life: Rasing the bar". Seriously, this book goes for around 350$ or more online (and it's in great condition).
I also found an old book about manners and etiquette from the 1910s. This one is interesting, because it was made here in Québec and it doesn't mention automobiles (only carriages).
Most old book there we can buy are books about clergymen or something. I was able to find, in their books to sell, an old book about treating kidney diseases from 1912. It has recipes for remedies (which are more likely to only make you pee...) and fake pills for people who have nothing. An old recipe for medical soap (which is an ingredient for some remedies). It also mentions mercurial treatment for syphilis and also mentions the doctor that forefronted this treatment. The guy was truly clueless as to why the survival rate was very low, as excerpted.
So yes. Try yourself at a place like that. Though, most of the workers at the place I was working at were mentally deficient.... But if you can ask for a request for a book, they will be sure to find it one day or the other.

There needs to be more stories where toys come to life.
Bravery and Honour to all of those Tiny Soilders who fought for a satisfying and True Revenge of the Owner s' Mother who might be the mother of all the toys. Never expected such steer determination and Unity of the Soilders , risking their Own lives. Toys too have hidden emotions of love and Anger like a human as per treatment of their real owner. RIP for those glorious warriors.
_Battleground_ has, and will always be, my favorite Stephen King short story. Renshaw's fight for survival always leaves me on the edge of my seat. Plus, the toy soldiers themselves just sound cool as Hell.
The little things King puts in-like Renshaw feeling pain in his foot, looking down and seeing one soldier repeatedly bayoneting his foot. The soldier stops, looks up at Renshaw with a smile and malice shining in his tiny eyes like two pencil leads and returns to stabbing.
I like how movie criminals take off their mask after entering a guarded building... I mean, there could be cameras - and most probably are - inside too!
The guy disabled teh CCTV cameras first.
@@ikengaspirit3063 I get that he turned off the corridor and front of the house cameras, true, but the chance of highly guarded buildings having all cameras connected to one output is quite slim. In fact why even bother with the mask, he was filmed outside anyway.
@@scooberton8948 reporting u to your job .
@@milotic7339 I understand Scooberton's knowledge on this stuff, and I will admit it is all true older camera systems might get compressed into one output... And I guess it is possible to switch off a camera server like that for some facial stretching after wearing a mask for 2 minutes. Still, I wouldn't bet on it. And it is done in so many movies! I would guess it's because the actor needs the face to act, but at the same time there's not much happening, so might it be it's a cheap way for the writers to show the criminals are super prepared, clever and untouchable to the point they can theoretically take a dump at the same house and have a coffee?
When I was a kid, I used to leave my toy soldiers scattered in places in our house and ask them to guard our house against criminals. I think it worked! We stopped being a child when we got serious in life.
So there are a lot of theories about the supernatural having a part in this, so I might as well as have fun too. Though it is a bit boring.
My theory is that the girl renshaw met on the plane was Moris’s daughter/sister/someone of relevence to him. The thing that gets me is her reaction. Its not a look of confusion or awkwardness…its a look of shock. As in she recognizes where that toy is from. And if you pay attention to the timezones, it would line up with the whole movie.
Its likely she saw Morris right before he closed and probably kept tabs on what had been sold. Right after, thats when Renshaw showed up and killed him…during closed hours. So, when she saw the toy, she is shocked to see why someone has a toy from Morris’s shop even though she just saw him right before closing. This also explains who was the receptionist that left the package at Renshaws door step.
Yes, there are a few questions on how she would be able to find out things like where Renshaw lives, as others point out, the toy fairy is likely a tracker, Notice how it only turns right after he dies. What about having a set of killer toys on the get go? I think the fact that the only time we see her with Renshaw on the plane says a lot. Because he’s not just on a random part of the plane, he’s in first class…and she’s right there alongside with him. Which tells me that she’s a pretty big figure herself.
Anyway, thats all I got, thanks for reading : )
It was the duaghter lol she kept leaving him clues to turn himself in but go mad and bring the toys to life probably every toys she make is alive
Another thing that would support this is if the fairy toy was a part of a new production, and not on the market. Which would make the only way he could get one is to have been at the factory/shop.
I can agree to this, also I think this family of toy makers where dealing with either magic or very anomalous technology (like nano tech) to make said toys and such. We never know who hired the killer, we don't know why we are giving clues but maybe he was freelanced to kill this guy because he was a danger.
In the 90's Twilight Zone did a similar story. Dad was a Vietnam Vet a drunk who suffered from PTSD. Beat his kid for playing with war toys. The toys came to life to protect the boy and killed the dad.

0:55, Renshaw wasn’t using a suppressed pistol, he was using a dart gun.
Darts are subsonic and are normally launched close range using CO2, which is significantly quieter than gunpowder and supersonic rounds and even suppressed pistols.

I remember reading this story in a Stephen King book back in high school. I think it was 'Night Shift'. His books were always rare because they'd always get lifted from the library and our librarian quit ordering them. Study Hall for me was always a treat if I had book that I was really into. I just remember how this story ended-two passerby's walking beneath the high rise heard an explosion-and a bit of charred paper landed by them. They pick it up and it reads something like 'GI Joe Vietnam Foot Locker' and lists all of the toys inside. The last item listed was 'One Thermonuclear Device'.

GO SOLDIERS! THEY LITERALLY GAVE THEIR LIFE FOR THEIR CREATOR!ABSOLUTELY RESPECT.I am routing for soldiers. It's just very Brutal.LOVE THIS FOX RECAPS! (true fact: foxes are my favorite animal)
this movie is basically the dark version of toy story
maybe it has some connections
The soldiers
u got that right
I'd say more like Small Soldiers.
I want more of this
So this is where the toy soldiers went after Toy Story 3?? Got it!!
Just imagine if was a battalion of soldiers
I've always loved tanks, it got me in trouble when I was a preteen because I would be have to take any toy tanks my friends had. It started when I was in hospital, I spent a lot of time in hospitals as a toddler and one of my coping mechanisms was little tanks I was given by family in my hospital bed.
I would place them around my bed at night to protect me from the blood suckers who came at night in my sleep to get samples from me.
I don't remember them saving me, but they did help with my powerless ness .
Lowkey I Still Do Something Similar
Just In Case
same bro, tanks are indeed veri cool
Same here, hehe. I've got a shelf full of all kinds of the little buggers, and my favorites are a glow-in-the-dark M1A2 Abrams and a Maus, the very first one of my collection.
as a scale modeller i can say with certainty if this ever happened to me i am absolutely fvcked 💀💀💀
7:00 the biggest plot hole in this story for me is the bald man owning a hair dryer
“She thought it was strange for a grown man to be carrying around a fairy toy”
Am I the only one who found this the most disturbing out of everything in this?
Yeah most likely only you, I don’t see anything wrong with it.
@@somedudefromapharmacy that’s a bit mean :/ people can carry around whatever they want. It isn’t strange or baby-like.
I guess your allowed to have your opinions and judgements, but don’t expect anyone to follow them though.
@@coconutmomentyeah oh I misread your comment, I thought you were saying that Renshaw carrying a toy fairy around is disturbing. My bad, I still don’t see anything relatively disturbing about the woman’s thoughts though, more like just another opinion.
@@somedudefromapharmacy oh I misread yours too, sorry.
Respect to the soldier 👍
I’m sure Sid would have had a wonderful time with Andy’s bucket of toy soldiers
