There’s also the cleric from Toy Story that time forgot, there was an entire franchise of toys called battlesaurs who didn’t even know that they only existed as toys and nothing more. Their kid mason was stuck in the other room playing video games, because of this they had a similar delusion as buzz from the first movie, They had a cult like world of their own until reptillus turned off mason’s video game and let himself be played with.

I always interpreted that the toys in toy story would gain a personality based on what they were created for, and what they are meant to be. Many of the toys in toy story take on the the role of being played with by kids as that is what they were created for. the three eyed aliens in the claw machine were created to be claw machine toys, so take on the persona of waiting to be selected by the claw, after all, wouldn't it be odd if the toys created to be placed into a claw machine started trying to escape the claw machine, and how it makes sense that they would try to stop Woody for breaking the rules of the machines creation, which is that its intended you get one toy at a time.
This analysis should be compulsory viewing for anyone who says you can’t critique certain movies because they are “a kids film about space wizards” (and/or other incoherent defenses of terrible films). This trilogy of “kids movies” has so many layers
those designs on the plates at 15:10 strongly resemble astrological glyphs, such as the one directly left of woody being an almost deadon Mercury glyph, the horseshoe at 7 oclock looks basically identical to the glyph for the nodes of the moon. not to disparage astrology but by creating nods to Spacey/occult symbolism that also echo a lot of cult symbols amd mythology like heavens gate etc, perhaps this was another nod from the creators that this is the direction they were trying to subtly alude to. quite interesting amd i think helps validate your theory
If you notice you've been comparing Lotso to Satan then if you've ever read the Bible and know about the battle of Armageddon then you will know that God wins and chain Satan to hell for eternity and Lotso is tied to the grill of a truck that's sort of the same thing but you said it was like the Lord of the Flies no it's more like the end of the battle of Armageddon.
Im really just happy that the people behind toy story took the movie so seriously, and sincerley. Like the fact that much of thought behind it was very purposeful means something. I feel like a modern animated movie would play off Jessies truama for jokes or a quick one off moment that didnt connect to the themes of the story.
Man, what started as a joke video turned out to be one of the best movie analyses I've seen. Hope that the Snowpiercer video won't be your most viewed video forever (since you have lots of wonderful ideas and an interesting angle) and you'll eventually find your audience. Big up!
I’ve watched the Snowpiercer video 10 times and I’m sure I will re watch this one as well, great job on the editing, very entertaining. Please come up with more “crazy” theories 👍🏻
This is the most interesting video I have seen in my life. Also, love the channel and your hard work that you put into the quality of your videos is very appreciated!
Protect this man at all cost His theories are soooo much more fun and intricate than game theory Because rhyno stew's theories are more creepy and dark centric while matpat makes his theories fun and scientific
Great video. Definitely a new way to look at the toy story franchise. I will never be able to see it another way. One thing though. What about the part where the toys rise up against one of the Gods? Where Woody tells Sid to play nice.
Sid is almost like a demon in that analogy, and it was brave of Woody to stand up to him especially since they have a golden rule that they're not supposed to talk.
Holy SHIT my mind was BLOWN the last 3 mins of this video AND your Snowpiercer video.. In snowpiercer is was the " Oompa Loompas went extinct so they had to switch to children to work the engine " and in this it was the " Literal deus ex machina " hahaha. Damn that was good
This deserves many more views. I reckon if you can get a somewhat regular upload schedule like you mentioned in your most recent video, then I think you have a serious chance on this platform. I can't wait to see what you make in the future
A lot of it is about accepting the role you've been given. Woody's profession of faith in the beginning, is that whether or not he gets played with, his only job as a toy is to be there for Andy. But he says this when things are easy, when he's the favorite toy. The rest of the movie and sequels are tests of faith, where we see if he can live up to his own words. Can he stick to this principle, and accept this identity, when things are hard and his world is shaken? At first he falters, but over time matures, and we know he really will be there for his kid, no matter what.
I saw the first movie in the theater with my father when it was groundbreaking. I never felt much need to continue watching them, though I might have seen some. Thanks for making me think!
In Toy Story 4, is Forkey “evolving” from animal to person (by which I mean toy)? Is Forkey a rope stretched between the Cutlery and the Supertoy, a rope over an abyss?
definitely a great video. I feel like the alien toys only have a narrow perspective on the world, like in the cave with the shadow thing whatever philosophy thing
Children trapped in a place where there are no adults would always go down into something like a cult. Anyway, Jeremy Clarkson strapped a teddy bear in front of his sports lorrie
I've noticed that cults hang on to people who are emotionally vulnerable; a very rational person would just leave but some people FEEL like they can't. I'm not the type of person to get sucked in a toxic cult but I feel bad for those who are.
I totally buy the theory of the bible describing aliens. It would be cool to design aliens species and their spaceships based on the descriptions of the angels with their many eyes... Which are probably just lights.
There is also a unique theme of Television being used to either break beliefs or reinvigorate them, with Buzz’s belief in being a Space Ranger is completely shattered by a Buzz Lightyear Commercial that explicitly lays out that he’s a toy and that he can’t fly, Woody meanwhile has his faith both emotionally and religiously reignited by the Woody’s Roundup Tape of himself singing “You’ve got a friend in me” while a child, a young god hugs and appreciates him, that commercial and removing the paint off the boot that says “Andy” is what breaks him out of Stinky Pete’s indoctrination. Could this be due to TV or rather those respective moments being from a 3rd party outside perspective giving each toy the full truth? I’m very curious to hear your thoughts on it, and it’s been quite the journey viewing my favorite series under a religious lens, awesome video overall
I clicked because the title is right up my alley but seen i was a Subscriber. Im like what??? Whos this guy? He doesnt seem familiar? Then the Showpiecer equals Willy Wonka popped up and i was like OOOOOHHHH! Thats who this is :D I am in for a treat!
Left my fairly frequent rewatch of something from wonkapiercer universe (wonka 2023 lofty theory) and went oh theres more wacky lore about kid movies from you. (gonna watch the cars lore from mikesmic next)
I had a brief moment of thinking the trash can scene was a reference to The Ring, but it didn't come out until 3 years later. Mayyyybe the writers saw/read Ringu (the notion of sending the toys to Japan opens this possibility a little) but I doubt it. Still, neat parallel.
It's 4am right now and after watching this and the snow piercer video I think Ive found my new favourite channel
Same
I’m literally thinking the same thing at 4:15am
5:30 a.m. right now for me
It’s 2am for me but same
4am at Brazil, and yeah... I did the same
I can’t believe I got completely bamboozled, and didn’t realise there was so much of the video left.
Today we learned more about cults, toys and how cool Rhino Stew is in making such videos.
There’s also the cleric from Toy Story that time forgot, there was an entire franchise of toys called battlesaurs who didn’t even know that they only existed as toys and nothing more.

There are a lot of disturbing questions raised by the idea of sentient toys.
The reverse clickbait is real
Title much less intriguing than the actual theory in it

When Jessie says "I won't go back in the dark" that hits so much harder once your an adult and have some horror under your belt.

Personally, I think that the three eyed aliens is an ascension cult.

Please more of this stuff! Both the snowpiercer video and this one were extremely well done and intriguing!

Yippee
@@MochiFam that's my favorite sweet snack.
I’ve watched the Snowpiercer video 10 times and I’m sure I will re watch this one as well, great job on the editing, very entertaining. Please come up with more “crazy” theories 👍🏻
You thoroughly have bamboozled me sir. Beautiful video regardless
‘How Toy Story deals with God, Cults, and Satan’
Me: “OMG please don’t ruin Toy Story for me”😩
Also Me: * continues to watch with no obligation too*
I envy your thought process. I can imagine myself spending the day talking our brains out... Just saw the Loompas. I'm mesmerized
Dnt knock ur obvious calling to find darkness in the light. Its great, u great.
Thank you for the laughs and blowing my mind with a whole new look at the series. I anticipate the 4th one even more now! Bravissimo!!!
Making it go full circle made this the most satisfying video I’ve seen! Great perspectives 🔥
You need to make more of these videos, they are amazing. I NEED MORE
This was amazing. Glad I subscribed. Rare content, but worth the wait.
U actually have a talent for this, Rhino Stew this is definitely your calling. Keep the good work up. Looking forward to your future analyses mate!

This is so good! Such a well made video. Thank you 💕
I wish he made more movie reviews, the two I've seen him do are so entertaining
This is the most interesting video I have seen in my life. Also, love the channel and your hard work that you put into the quality of your videos is very appreciated!

This was a roller coaster of ideas.

I love Rhino Stew, watched your web series and it was fucking awesome! Now I’ve came back to watch “these videos”, XD, keep it up.
I cried when buzz takes the leap of faith in part one :(
Your channel is mad underrated.
awesome video man. Keep up the good shit
Took me til this yr but I’m here, snowpiercer video on point mate. Well done thanks for the effort

I literally yelled THE CLAW at (you know which part) great video man.
Sammmmmeeeeeeee
Thanks to you I know how to re- enjoy a film just by looking at it in a different way
Blessed with a such great video, thank you man!
This deserves many more views. I reckon if you can get a somewhat regular upload schedule like you mentioned in your most recent video, then I think you have a serious chance on this platform. I can't wait to see what you make in the future
BOARD THE PLATFORMS!
I watched this and was surprised by the other content on the channel
A lot of it is about accepting the role you've been given. Woody's profession of faith in the beginning, is that whether or not he gets played with, his only job as a toy is to be there for Andy.

You give me a *weird* vibe...
I'm not sure how to wrap around the fact that this is the same channel that put out "ASMR Bank Robbery" and "ASMR Xenomorphs"
So glad I took the suggestion from Alex Bale's video! This is so interesting!!! New subscriber right here
Here after watchung the Alex Bale video
definitely a great video. I feel like the alien toys only have a narrow perspective on the world, like in the cave with the shadow thing whatever philosophy thing
BRO CLAW!!! lmao you went full circle with the claw!! Haha. Amazing video man.
“Because Eu have a very warped sense of ‘fun’”
I have never related to a quote every in my life
You deserve more subs because this type of content is so great.
When you compared the clouds in Andy's room to the clouds at the end of toy story 3, it blew my mind.
I did not expect this, not complaining but wow. This is something yo. Rhino Stew, please make more theories. I find your videos, quite entertaining.
Children trapped in a place where there are no adults would always go down into something like a cult.

I've noticed that cults hang on to people who are emotionally vulnerable; a very rational person would just leave but some people FEEL like they can't. I'm not the type of person to get sucked in a toxic cult but I feel bad for those who are.
Honest opinion: this is better than your Snowpiercer=Wonka vid.
I'm amazed it hasn't blown up as much.
Next Alex Bale right here, W video!
So we’ve got 6 years left until the Heaven’s Gate prophecy could come to fruition
It’s 3:31 AM right now, and this is better than sleeping
well that escalated quickly
If you are seeing this video then its time to go to bed.
no
Holy sheet finally new videos bro!
I love these videos, they really make me think

The "kids are gods" part holds up even better now that it's canon that the kids actually do give the toys life and sentience
Please do more videos on dark theories of kids films please

This was fantastic.
I wasn't crazy melting toys, switching out parts, making monsters to destroy.
