If a new Pixar movie doesn’t fit into the Pixar theory, you now have the ability to claim it is a movie in the Pixar universe
Do you think lightyear sucks?
@@marianoromero8187 no
Soooo excited!!! Ill have my taco bell, baja blast and some kinda chocolate ready to goooo😂😅
I swear the Carlin brothers are like the only guys that are still keeping track of the Pixar theory
AND YOU ARE WELCOME FOR THAT!
@@SuperCarlinBrothers My dudes, I am very sorry, but people working for Pixar have confirmed that they "went extra lengths" to disprove the Pixar Theory in Toy Story 4. Unless there is a multiverse of sorts, this theory is busted.
Edit: I should actually clarify, they didn't actually concretely disconfirm it in Toy Story 4, but they did try to imply that the theory is untrue. There was an interview with someone about it, and they talk about it on the Blu-ray I think too.
@@SuperCarlinBrothers what ever would we do without you guys??? We love you
There's also the original guy, forgor his name
@@SynoPTL Jon Negroni I think
If this Pixar theory thing is still going, you should probably make an updated complete theory video
Yes yes in deadly do
Ps idk if you care a bot is in you comments
they do that now and then, think they did one last year?
Not to mention, the fundamentals haven't really changed since the last overview vid
Yes please
@@paigelarson9279 well ofc... they did that several times along the way...
I like to think that the animated Buzz Lightyear of Star Command is what Andy watched as a kid to get him into Buzz and the Lightyear movie is the "live action" reboot that came out afterwards.
Where would the team from Buzz Lightyear of Star Command be then?
@@takutomaruki4073 It’s an inaccurate adaptation (Zurg twist, different characters, not enough CGI budget for certain aliens/planets/et cetra).
@@theoheiland6807 Do you think we'd eventually recieve the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command crew if we get a sequel to Lightyear also I think that another Zurg exists as in the movie old man Buzz basically stole his suit so there's probably an alien out there that wants revenge on old man Buzz but what do you think though?
@@takutomaruki4073 Maybe that’s what the in-universe film studio was teasing.
I would say given the updated timeline, it's more the other way around. Buzz Lightyear of Star Command is that quintessential '90s cartoon loosely based on a popular movie/TV franchise that's aimed at an older audience, which in this case is the "live action" Lightyear movie. It has a wildly different cast, tone, and plot because it needed to be more kid-friendly so it would air during those long lost afterschool and Saturday morning kids shows blocks back when broadcast networks actually still had those.
Missed opportunity to make a 5 second video that's like: Hey Brother! Lightyear is a movie that Andy once watched. *Abruptly ends video
ooooooh we thought about it
I think they said in the documentary about the creation of buzz on Disney+ that this movie is what Andy watched that got him excited about Buzz and the t.v. shows in the original Toy Story were based off of
@@aaronsweeney164 It was said literally in the beginning of the movie)))
@@LoerisOtter Fun lol
No, it is the bad remake that they made when Andy was at university
The Pixar theory is the most unbelievable theory and at the sam time the most believable theory
Exactly
You had us in the first half not gonna lie.
Spoilers for Lightyear:
Zurg (Toy Story): “I am your father.”
Zurg (Lightyear): “I am you.”
So how does that work if the toy version is meant to be based on the film? Or is this working off of comic book logic where the film is a different continuity from the particular buzz lightyear toy line?
Probably the latter. Alternatively, the toy Zurg is based on a hypothetical sequel where that is the twist, since Buzz already has his outfit from the end of Lightyear in Toy Story 1, and the utility belt accessory suggests that at least one sequel came out, probably two due to how much Buzz and Zurg are meant to riff on Star Wars and that was originally a trilogy.
For me this movie is just a bad remake that they made years later.
The cars films would be a good option. Its always been an icky one to place and with the plaster/band-aid in finding Dory I'd say there was at least some evidence for it being a story within the universe instead of cars waking up and taking up their prior owners personalities.
It's also extremely compatible with the "if there's toys of them, then it's a fictional movie within the Pixarverse" conceit that Lightyear introduced. The Cars films... could literally just be the Pixarverse equivalent of Hot Wheels (or I guess the Chevron Cars are a bit more on the nose), and on one of the aisles in Al's Toy Barn that we don't get to see, there could be boxes upon boxes of Lightning McQueen, Mater, etc toy cars.
Makes me a little sad tbh as I did like some of the concepts presented in the Cars segment of the theory like cars having the memories of their drivers.
In regards to Al's Toy Barn, anyone ever considered that maybe that's like a wholesale store, and that be bought up all the remaining Buzz Toys because it was no longer popular. Kinda like the Clearance Aisle in Walmarts or something. I mean if it was a "popular" movie, with so many toys...then why no Lightyear sequels for Andy to watch?
Good point
Ps btw you have a bot in your comets
How do we know there aren't Lightyear sequels? One of the 3 credit scenes definitely set it up as if there will be a sequel (the question is if we'll see it, though that probably has a lot more to do with money, money, money).
The Buzz toys in 2 seemed to be new variant models, given the addition of the utility belt.
I assume the reason why ATB exclusively stocked Buzz and Zurg toys was because as a 90's action movie hero and villain, those two would be the most popular characters and Al is looking to get the most profit from the associated demographic.
Also, the rows do go on for quite a bit and we only see them at an angle. It could be that the other toys further down the shelf weren’t of Buzz per se, but of the other Rangers.
@@anyawillowfan the issue is that there’s a show and a movie from that show so a sequel isn’t needed
Ah yes, how lightyear fits into the Pixar theory and most of the video is talking about woody. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
Actually according to Angus McLane there are Sox toys but the reason Andy didn’t get one is because not only were they sold out everywhere but Andy’s mom couldn’t afford one as they were like $70
What in the world-
@@ajbryant1980 The Grogu animatronic of similar size to Sox, was retailed for around $70, maybe cheaper but it is not unreasonable. But that is in today's money, a real world ,at the same time as Toy Story, example would be the Furby. It was set at $30, however the demand for it by Christmas 1998, lunched it to $100 or more. So again Sox could have started at $30 but perhaps due to a similar demand has jumped to $70. Likely by Christmas at the end of the movie, being $100, which would be why Andy never got Sox. Although I think maybe he could have on the way to college, saw a Sox in someone's garbage and "rescued" him. Sure may have been teased about it, but he could show off his repair skills that he got from his mom and perhaps that is what he went on to do. Be a vintage toy repair person. Sure he can repair near toys too, but the classics like Woody and Buzz hold a special place in his heart.
But its just a theory.
No, it because the character of Sox didn't exist until 2022.
@@hollyputvin917 okay, that made me emotional
In my mind, I’m like “Andy adopted a cat that looks like Sox”
Latching onto the Chris Evans/Steve Rogers parallels, notice how Buzz in _Lightyear_ is driven and defined by being a space ranger. Now, recall in _Winter Soldier_ , Steve Rogers throws himself into being Captain America, and doesn't have much of a social life. Sam Wilson asks him when he visits the VA, "What makes you happy?" And Steve answer's, "...I don't know."
*Incredibles Teacher Voice* Coincidence? I THINK NOT!
Bernie...
“Why were there no figures for Sox, Izzy, Mo and Darby?!”
Well you could say the exact same thing about Mira, Booster, XR and Commander Nebula.
@@timotheninja or maybe they only produced Buzz and Zerg figures. Not believing people would have bought the other characters.
@@timotheninja it’s what happened with the 2003 He-Man series. There were only He-man and Skeletor figures but no secondary characters. The opposite happened with He-man in the 80s where only unimportant figures were released with little to no He-man.
No you can’t because nobody was claiming that buzz lightyear of star command is something andy watched.
@@BabyGirlTiny Yeah, Andy didn’t watch Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. He just owned a tape of it in his house where his toys watched it! Of course!
@@homebrewed5670 in Canon (aka it was confirmed) Sox IS a toy in Pixar but it was $70.so Andy's mother couldn't buy it
I don't think Lightyear, the movie Andy watched, was produced by Pixar, and therefore, I don't think Pixar exists in the Pixarverse.
I'm ALMOST fine with A Bug's Life just being a movie in-universe, except for the fact that the RV trailer and the Pizza Planet truck from A Bug's Life are also in Monsters Inc, a movie which I think is far too important to the overall Pixar theory to be deemed completely fictional in-universe.
But A Bug's Life was placed in the distant future because of the tree from Wall-E.
@@SeanWheeler100 Well it's most likely that the trailer was there during Monsters Inc but not the tree. It was probably abandoned during the events of A Bug's Life and simultaneously Wall E when the humans left in the axioms.
@@advent9225 Or you know, the placement of A Bug's Life into the future was wrong because of evidence that A Bug's Life may be contemporary. There was a flyer for The Lion King musical and a bug who had his wings pulled off by a kid. Also, Heimlich could be seen crawling on a leaf as Buzz chopped through, so unless Heimlich was an immortal caterpillar, there has to be a short time between A Bug's Life and Toy Story 2. But the Flik dolls in Al's Toy Barn show that A Bug's Life is fictional. There are tons of things wrong with the Pixar Theory.
@@SeanWheeler100
And also the Wall-E Cups in TS4 which implies that Wall-E is a movie within the Pixar universe.
Oh and the Onward balloon in TS4.
@@SeanWheeler100
And it can be assumed that the a bugs life area where Randall was just thrown into is a actual place, but it’s a filming sight VIA it’s where one of the bugs life scenes was filmed in the PixarVerse, Randall just happened to be thrown in there by coincidence.
I feel like the missing Sox and other toys in Al's Toy Barn makes a lot of sense. Buzz is the hero and MC. Zurg is the villain. So those are the most popular toys, thus there will be a lot of them. Think about Batman - you see figures of Batman and the Joker but hardly ever any of Robin, Alfred, Gordon, etc. and when they are there it is one toy with only a few in stock.
Except Sox is made to sell and based on the reaction of the viewers, sox was the best thing from the buzz movie. Let’s not forget that the toy designs aren’t even based on the movies
And don’t forget to mention AL McWhiggin.
Al knows that Buzz is what the customers will want. Buzz and Zurg are the popular ones. Buzz and Zurg is the toys that the Customers and kids will want.
I haven't gone back to watch Toy Story 2 to confirm, but do we ever see the other side of the Buzz aisle in the movie? If not, it's possible the other character action figures are on the other side of the aisle that we never see.
Aisles do have two walls, after all =) .
Yes, it shows that both are filled with Buzz.
@@ssloestj.4008 Ah, okay. Hey, maybe that aisle is only Buzz, but the other characters and merch are in the next aisle over?
Probably not, but hey, we never know =p !
@@absol1975 I think your on to somthing mabe buzz is more popular so thay over stocked with him.
At most only one aisle could have had other toys, I guess.
And yes, they likely were very overstocked, perhaps to meet the (insane) level of demand.
The animation is so cool in Lightyear. Something about the natural lighting specifically along with the general cinematography signalled me to just ~know~ that it was meant to be live action in-universe
Al would be in the "Fandom Menace", confirmed.
I’m pretty sure the only reason that they are entertaining the Pixar Theory is because somebody over there is subscribed to SCB.
OK, so I came up with something that I think really works for the pixar theory. Yes, Lightyear is a movie in the pixar universe. BUT it's also a real event that happened. So I think that the turnip is one of the Axiom ships that left earth before Wall-E. Then the events of Lightyear happen. When Zurg travels super far into the future, he meats the monsters (or whatever the monsters become even further down the line) and that's how zurg discovers how to travel back in time. Then after the end of lightyear, zurg eventually finds a way to travel even further back in time. He eventually travels all the way back, to around 1990 or 1985 and indirectly inspires the creation of the Lightyear movie, based on his story. Thats my theory
The Incredibles comic inside a pixar film could be the same as there being x-men comics being inside Logan
I absolutely love that this movie is simultaneously the easiest film to fit into the Pixar theory, and yet also potentially throws some of the biggest wrenches we've ever seen into the Pixar theory as a whole. Fitting it into the Pixar theory only takes one sentence: "It's in world fiction in the Pixar universe." Yet, the mere existence of that explanation could easily derail huge parts of the theory if any other movie ever gets revealed to have that same explanation.
We gonna bring up the fact they had the technology to make a live action light-year in 1995?!
Syndrome had the technology to make the omnidroid in the 1960s

There were three Star Wars movies by that point. The tech existed. It just probably looked like a movie made in 1995 (Apollo 13, anyone?)
Petition for an updated Pixar Theory song?
Copy and paste so they can see this
Yes !
Just like in marvel universe they created fictional content about them so i think the same with the incredibles.
I personally like the idea that The Incredibles are indeed a movie but taken from real life examples. They may have taken rumors of people with special powers and made a movie with them to combat the rising cases of fear within children. It would also be a way for the actual Ai to play down it's current abilities by making a popular movie with an advanced Ai being taken out and related to fiction. This same logic can be applied to the second movie as well. The Ai put in mind control to shift the perception of mind control being a thing as well.
This is good. This is head canon now.
@@nattievoices Thank you very much!
My idea about Lightyear is that it’s sorta a similar situation to Marvel where they had that live action film Andy saw and then there’s an animated series about Buzz Lightyear that the toy line is based on, like how marvel has the MCU of live action films alongside a number of animated tv shows and there’s action figures made for both
The difference is that the Animated shows are based off of comics and not the movies as there are animated shows that wer made before the MCU was even a thing. Same with other movies like Spider-Man. The issue with Light year, is that the buzz lightyear of star command has absolutely nothing to do with the movie and the buzz in both are completely different
Somehow, this helps explain the odd lack of Sox toys in Al's Toy Barn. In fact, what if he only collects Zurg and Buzz toys because he's the voice of animated-spinoff Zurg- Wayne Knight is Al and Star Command Zurg. He must've especially enjoyed the movie and was an ascended fan.
So in the Toy Story lore, instead, Al is the VA. One of his sale-gimmicks could be "also starring the voice of Zurg from the show!".
For the Incredibles and having comics, it is possible they have comics that either relive the Super's adventures or create false ones. You can see stuff like it in "The Boys" show, or Invincible or other superhero movies and whatnot.
The movie posters could be reliving the Super's lives similar to how we do biographical films.
Ya that's what I said these guys must only watch pixar movies
Just Watched light year on Disney+, and I actually believe that it’s a bit of both. Light year is in fact a movie that Andy saw as a kid, but at some point in the very far off distant future, The real buzz light-year is named by his parents, the father happens I have the last name Lightyear, so he just decides to name him after his favorite childhood hero, buzz. But just after this point, humans are forced to leave the planet, like we see in WallE, and while buy and large tries to evacuate the planet, they leave the task of finding a new hospitable planet to the space rangers.
Buzz grows up and tries to become a space ranger, and we get Lightyear. The only reason Buzz doesn’t remember any of the events in the movie is because he was actually born in space, and movies don’t really exist on the ship he was born on. No one remembers movies, other than the previous generation, but they only saw them as kids.
So the other weird outlier (imo) is Onward - which was sort of settled as being on another planet after humans left Earth in the grand timeline of the theory. But if movies can be stories within stories now ... what if Onward is Andy's D&D game in college? Like, yeah, it could be anyone's game (my first thought was Mei and her friends get a game together but that doesn't fit the movie as well ... that's still a story I would love to see). But it just feels like the kind of game Andy would run. He's compassionate and creative and he'd try to bring some catharsis to every player at his table. And it really speaks of his own experiences both as a kid without a dad and as an older brother.
Alternately - Onward could be the same point in the timeline as Monsters, but takes place on the planet that Buzz & Co. landed on, it's just it's fictional even to the prime universe so they evolved into fantasy creatures instead of monsters - so there's these two parallel realities where one is "prime" verse and one is "fiction" verse .... and we have to guess which one is which going forward. Next Level Pixar Theory makes the game more challenging!
(Do I think either of these are the case? No, not really. But like the rest of the Pixar Theory it's really fun to think about!)
Congratulations, Carlin Brothers. You have now made the Pixar Theory many times more complex than it already was
“If you wanna watch Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, good luck. It’s basically been scrubbed from Disney.”
Me: *Laughs in piracy*
5:21 Honestly, I really want to know the reason for that. However, I do have a VHS of the movie. Anyway, the idea that certain Pixar movies might actually exist within the Pixar universe is really interesting to think about.
I just love that Pixar did this film. The concept is just so interesting and different and creates so many questions and theory's. Like for one the film is a film in a film. And it's so weird that the film is animation for us but for everyone in the toy story universe, which is animated for us, is watching Lightyear as a live action film and then that means the characters in Lightyear are actually actors in the toy story universe. There real people in the toy story universe but completely fictional for us????
Woah! I think you just broke my brain.
@@Margaret-yv9ed 🤣. Exactly that's why it's interesting
whydid buzz and zurg as toys don't follow the lore of the movie but instead the lore of the video game. Buzz'a lines say that Emperor Zerg is planning to annihilate a planet and buzz is gonna meet up with Star command for the machine. Also zurg's toy design and lore is different, he is buzz's father and he has a cloak.
Woodford? Woodred? Woodolf? What could Woody's full name be. Woodard? Woodson. Woodslough. Woodton. Woodinthal.
J, Ben, do you guys remember when this movie was first announced and the concept was just ultra confusing? For anyone who doesn’t remember, the original concept was that inside the Pixar universe, Buzz was a real person, Zurg was a real person, Zurg was a tyrant who attacked the galaxy, Buzz defeated him and saves Earth. He becomes a hero. A movie is made based off him, that movie being Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, which is why it opens with Andy’s toys putting the VHS tape in and zooming in on Andy’s TV, and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command is the movie that Andy sees and starts the Buzz Lightyear craze. Lightyear was going to show the events of the real person Zurg saving the world and inspiring Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. My head hurts. Congrats if you made it to the end of this comment!
This actually makes sense! Though convoluted, theories about our real life movies going into fictional movies into the fictional characters lives and THEIR own movies. Gotta love Pixar.
@@ryansmith-jr4gn No, it hasn't. I'll try to find the article and give you the link but it's from like a year or two ago so I doubt I can. It was from pretty much the day it was announced, maybe a couple days late, the director was doing an interview and this is what he said it was. I think the Carlin Brothers might have actually done a video on this article but not sure.
@@jeromevaleska2014
ua-cam.com/video/sKpa8zG8hJw/v-deo.html
Skip to 10:50 in the video. Pete Doctor says it’s a movie within Toy Story. This was when Lightyear was first announced
that would make more sense as buzz and zurg as toys don't follow the lore of the movie Lightyear but instead the lore of the video game. Buzz'a lines say that Emperor Zerg is planning to annihilate a planet and buzz is gonna meet up with Star command for the machine. Also zurg's toy design and lore is different, he is buzz's father and he has a clock.
Thor's Great Goats! I remember that Buzz Lightyear of Star Command show! I loved the red guy but I only vaguely remember the show
We've gotten to the point in the Pixar Theory that the Pixar movies were in fact, movies. All along. Huh.
You know, I wasn't sure if this would be a video since they solved this immediately, it didn't even take them a full minute
I thought you'd mention that Miriam had a Lightyear/Star Command sticker on her skateboard, showing that it was a popular movie, even in 2002.
I assume Lightyear take place outside of the Pixar Theory and within it own universe, one that don't interfere with the Pixar's Timeline. That'd make sense and it would keep the Pixar Universe Timeline from messing up.
Also the film is suppose to be what was the movie that made Andy want a Buzz Lightyear of his own, having two Buzz Lightyear (both the real deal and the toy) existing in the same universe wouldn't make sense.
Buzz Lightyear the Action Hero isnt a real person - he's just a character in a movie in the Pixar universe played by an actor in the Pixar universe
@@SuperCarlinBrothers gotta love that Pixar simplicity ☺️
The movie could be a real “buzz’s” story and he travelled back in time and told someone who then made it a movie
@@SuperCarlinBrothers But who is that actor
@@emperorfruitmarket MRS. NESBIT! ☕
If you pay attention to the toy store shelves in the Toy story level of Kingdom Hearts 3, you'll see a huge variety of toys and games. Everything comes in multiple colors or multiple characters from those games. It's not floor to ceiling the same toy like in Al's Toy Barn. Just a related side note. Love the video! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!
Also Square Enix exist in the Pixar universe.
I really need to get caught up on the Pixar Theory videos because the entire time I was watching, I was like, “?????”
You make the movies way more interesting with your theories
Here is a crazy theory, what if BNL is in charge of not just the robots and the axiom, but also make movies, this would explain why for example, cars takes place in a world similar to ours but with cars, people could be voice acting the cars and they could be telling a story of what’s to come but using cars instead of people to entertain children, since cars takes place over a few different years and is overlapping with different things that have already happened, it would make sense and BNL Being in charge of everything also fits with what we already know from the other movies in the Pixar universe, I don’t think it’s that big of a stretch for them to put their own advertising in the movie or for them to create movies when they’re able to do all this other stuff, it would also explain how they’re able to make a live action buzz light year movie in the 90s, If they also used their technology to make a live action talking car movie, but that’s just a theory.
I think there would have to be at least 3 buzz lightyear movies in the Pixar universe, or at least the first movie and the animated show. Because, buzz has to still be popular enough to get another toy with the anti-gravity belt and still be relevant to get fast food kids toys like the ones we see in the "small fry" short.
Getting a soul didn't take away his purpose, it simply helped him realize that he'd been misunderstanding his purpose the whole time.
If dinosaurs died out thousands of years ago instead of millions of years then Nessy is more likely to be a plesiosaur maybe she's amixa survivor of the past maybe Italy's sea monsters are full monster human hybrids
A little suspicious that Boo had a clownfish toy that may have actually been a Finding Nemo toy. Her Jesse doll makes more sense since she’s from a famous show, Woody’s Roundup. But I guess Finding Nemo wasn’t a movie in the Pixar universe since it’s so important to the Pixar theory and the kid reading the Incredibles comic. This is confusing
Do we have to hold on to a fan theory that Pixar constantly denied? Lightyear destroyed it by being a feature-length Pixar movie that exists as a movie that Andy watched. And even if you try to consider the possibility that it's based on a true story and Buzz who existed in the Wall-E era travelled back in time to the 1990's, there's still the problem with how Zurg split the timeline because the whole Pixar theory is about every movie happening on one timeline, and the time travel Boo did to become the witch from Brave relied on the Novikov self-consistency principle, which is the only set of time travel rules that allows a story to stay on one single timeline. What Zurg did going back in time to become someone Buzz would never be invokes the multiverse rule where you create an alternate universe when you travel back in time. So, the single timeline aspect of the Pixar theory is dead now. We've got a Pixar multiverse. The movies don't have to be in some shared universe.
TheTheorizer covers this exact theory
It’s because of you guys I got into the Pixar theory. Thanks for that
Ok but how can you explain the scream canisters seen in the scene where Buzz and the team are in the warehouse filled with spiders. If the movie is made supposidely in 1996 how could the makers of the movie known about scream canisters since they are invented by the monsters far off in the future?
bloopers totally count, I now consider it head canon that the bugs in bugs life made a movie lol
Every single pixar movie are just movies Andy watches over the course of his childhood which causes him to have an overactive imagination where he imagines his toys having adventures of their own. The entire pixar universe is just one kid and his family.
Pixar theory is my favorite theory
same tho
Amazing Pixar content as always my brothas! Love the fact that Woody has went through this transition, this theory really is ever growing. Also enjoyed the Does Woody Have A Soul? video as well!
You 2 need to start doing more lord of the rings and the hobbit
Ben for Kvothe!🧙🏻♂️🗡 J for Elodin!🧙🏻♂️🗡 Another great Pixar theory video!
What I think is, if it doesn’t revolve around people, it’s a movie in the Pixar world
In my head cannon I think Lightyear is a retelling of the 1995 movie and not the actual one
I own a copy of buzz light year star command in VHS (I don’t know why we don’t have it on DVD instead) but I watched it a lot because Toy Story and Cars were my favorite movies as a kid
I can confirm movie does exist
INCEPTION!! XD There's a pixar Universe inside the Pixar Universe, with Toy Story being the top Universe! lol
OMG BUZZ LIGHTYEAR OF STAR COMMAND WAS ONE OF MY FAVS AS A KID, I FORGOT ABOUT IT
Another idea: as we see the buzz Lightyear show sometime after TS2 (first three episodes made into a movie) perhaps, in canon, the show movie and movie movie were planned at similar times, but the show came out later.
Havent seen it yet, but they explicitly tell us its a fictional story within toy story.
"This is that movie." Yeah, right... Because they definitely had a lesbian couple in a movie made in 1995.
Still got the vhs, the only disney straight to video release spin off i liked as a kid
What about the scene in Toy Story 2 where the Zorg toy says "no, Buzz, I am your father" ??
on the note of 'where are the action figures'...it was the 90s. I remember 90s movies sometimes only releasing some characters as toys, sometimes even missing prominent characters. heck, they still do that to this day, with Disney missing that Luisa was going to be much more popular than Isabella. They made so much Isa merch and so little Luisa merch because they assumed everyone would want the Isa toys more.
What about Cars? There is a Cars Band-Aid in Finding Dory and Cars was always one of the hardest movies to explain how it fits into the Pixar Theory. Are the Cars alive? How does car biology work in the world of Cars? I think it doesn't matter. Cars is a movie within the Pixar universe, just like Lightyear.
i hope to see a woodys round up film next
Pixar Theory Twist: All of the movies ( _and perhaps TV shows_ ) that Pixar ever created are simply just that: stories _within_ stories _within_ stories, etc. Not a *single one* of the films... are real inside that universe at all. The _only_ things about them which are, in fact, real... are the toys ( _and other various merchandise_ ) themselves.
In the movie Buzz says that Zerg is his self but in Pixar universe toy buzz says that is his dad
This kinda ties into the Theorizer's theory that every pixar movie contains every other pixar movie as a fictional movie
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years. I can remember so vividly watching the Pixar theory video on my PlayStation 3 as a kid lol. Super happy for you guys!
✨I love the Pixar theory ♥️✨
I just wanna say I greatly appreciate the yellow bar that shows the advertisement length
I do have a way it could fit into the Pixar Theory, but only if you ignore the text at the beginning:
Main plot of movie takes place before or after the events of Wall-E. Explosion of crystal launches Zurg back through space/time to Earth around time of Spitnik launch. Zurg tells of the greatest hero in the universe to preserve his legacy, helped by the fact that he knows most of the events that took place due to being Buzz. He gets a brand deal, a movie based on his own life (the producers don't know that) and a toy deal.
I highly recommend anyone who hasn't seen Buzz Lightyear of Star Command to try to seek it out somewhere, especially if you enjoyed this movie. It's great and Buzz has the exact same character arc in that show too where he has to learn to accept the help from a team of rookies including an optimistic female, a cowardly male, and a funny robot after his first partner dies. It's a bit campier than "Lightyear" but in a fun Saturday morning cartoon sort of way!
Here's something interesting you might want to get a head start on.
The next Pixar movie will be called "Elemental", and takes place in a world inhabited by manifestations of the four classical elements. As in, the people are actually made out of fire, water, air, or earth (except the last one is referred to as "land"). One of the leads is a water elemental named Wade.
In Lightyear, the vending machine that dispenses the Meat Sandwich also sells a product called "Wade Water" with a cartoony image of Wade on the bottle.
First of all thanks for the expansion of the theory, and is it just me or is Ben more active on the channel than J now?
My theory is that pixar movies within the pixar universe as movies, like Lightyear, are likely another phase of Boo's mission to keep memories alive. Maybe she hires people to direct movies based on different events of the pixar time-line to further keep memories(especially Sulley's memories) going. By doing so, she distributes the stories to everyone in the world so that she can get the word out to as many people in the world as she possibly can.
Keep in mind that her real name is Mary Gibbs after the daughter of Rob Gibbs who happens to work for a movie company. - Bernie: Coincidence? I think NOT!
The Incredibles could be like Logan where there are X-men comics in an X-men movie
I think it would be a lot of fun reconstructing the Pixar Theory into "Pixar Reality" and Pixar Movies"
One thing lightyear got me thinking about:
if lightyear is a live action movie in the toy story universe, does that mean that the actual live action movies in WALL-E are animated?
Would that mean that the “president” in WALL-E is just a cartoon? Or am I just overthinking this
That quick read on why Al doesn’t stock any action figures but buzz made me cackle. Definitely tracks.
The Buzz Lightyear of star command cartoon was such a big part of my childhood. I owned the VHS and watched it all the time. I also grew up on the old spin off TV show
The Incredibles have comics in the Pixar universe the same way the Avengers have comics in the mcu.
9:29 I honestly was going to ask: Why haven't you made a pixar theory video on A Bug's Life?
I think Buzz Lightyear take place in same time when Andy’s favourite film out (probably before or something because it would be strange that Buzz is real and in a movie at the same time) and when he went to The Future it’s The Same Time ether Wall-E or Monster.Inc
when are yalls gonna release th full track of your pixar theme song its awesome just like this therory keep up the good work
Your Al point doesn't really make much sense, he's greedy and I can guarantee you selling the other action figures (especially Socks) would make him more money than only selling Buzz.
Half of this video is basically questioning if all the other parts of the Pixar theory are just movies in the Pixar universe
So, as long as we're defictionalizing shows in the Toy Story world, does anyone else want a Woody's Roundup show? Given Disney TV Animation having a track record for ending shows too soon, it'll be nice to have a show that's SUPPOSED to end on a cliffhanger!
5:23 I love that show
Bugs are actually alive in real life . So it would make more sense if you story was a movie in the bugs life universe
there was also the monster inc energy canister in the part where they get the suites
So we not going to talk about the Monsters inc. scream containers in Lightyear? 🤔
Yes please explain this?!!?!!?!
I thought I've seen Star Command on the Disney+ catalog. I haven't watched it, but I thought it was there
