Hello guys, you asked for it - so here it is - by it, I don't mean me, by it - I mean
more Creepy theories about Toy Story.
Who would have thought that such a wholesome, beloved movie could be the source of so many
disturbing theories about whats going between the lines.
Im glad you asked for another video - because I left some of the most disturbing ones out.
But here they are now for - my name is Danny Burke and this is the Top 10 Scary Toy Story
Theories - Part 2
Starting off at number 10 we have The Death of Woody[a].
Ever since Toy Story 4 was announced - people have been asking - why?
Don't get me wrong, were all excited for another Toy Story movie but the end of the 3rd movie
seemed quite final.
Even hardcore fans have been wondering why there is a need for a 4th movie and some think
the only thing that can justify it is the death of one of the main characters and many
of them are leaning towards it being Woody.
The synopsis of the movie contains the line -Every ending is a new beginning- … some
fans think that has ominous death vibes and that the ending refers to Woody.
Also, the movie poster looks a bit ominous - we see Woody by himself, walking off into
the distance and tipping his hat as if to say goodbye.
Moving on to number 9 we have Wheezy Villain.
Theres a theory going round that Wheezy, the squeaky penguin that the other toys try to
help in the 2nd movie - is actually the villain of the whole thing - in fact, some go so far
as to say that he caused all the bad things that happen to the toys in the whole movie.
The main crux of this argument is that Wheezy used to be Andys favourite toys for a whole
before he was forgotten about on a shelf.
In the first movie, we see how Woody got jealous of Buzz - so imagine how Wheezy must feel
about all the other toys in the second movie.
People think it was this jealousy that resulted in him putting Woody in the yard sale in the
hopes that he would be gone forever and he could be Andys favourite toy once again ...
Moving on to number 8 we have Creepy Woody.
This is the true story - Woody was initially going to be a ventriloquist dummy - that was
the idea the team behind Toy Story came up with.
Then, it was suggested that instead of a ventriloquist doll, they turn Woody into a cowboy - everybody
loves a cowboys right?
Well, luckily they went with that.
I think every Toy Story fan can agree that a creepy ventriloquist doll Woody would have
been quite a disturbing sight in retrospect.
I don't even wanna think about that …
Next up at number 7 we have Toy Amnesia[b].
This is what Im calling a theory posted to Reddit by user Tommy M Walker.
He suggested that the toys in toy story will never remember Andy.
He says that the toys have personalities and memories that are imprinted on them and once
they have a new owner, their former memories are wipes away.
This would be scary if true, especially for the 4th movie.
As proof he puts forward Toy Story 2.
Jessies last owner, Emily, loved her for a very long time, grew up and donated her.
Eventually, she was found by Al who put her in storage where she completely forgot about
her former life and only remembered when Woody arrived on the scene.
If this is true - then do toys have their memories wiped when they get new owners?
We saw Toy Story 3 end with Andy handing over his toys to a new kid, does this mean the
toys will forget Andy?
Thats quite a disturbing thought for every Toy Story fan …
Coming in at number 6 we have The War[c].
This is another Reddit theory put forward by user Space Communist.
He says that the first two movies are set during the space race of the 1960s - hence
the old technology and obsession with toys like Buzz Lightyear.
Then though, about 10 years pass and were suddenly in Toy Story 3 where theres laptops,
online gaming and modern cars.
It looks just like the past decade or so in real life.
Where did all this technology come from?
Well, this guy thinks a world war took place over the course of the movies - the technology
advanced so rapidly during the war that it explains the leap we see between the movie.
For further proof he points to the maps we see in the movies.
They seem to show the world map as very different, countries arent the same, borders are all
over the place - almost as if a war took place.
Its a crazy theory, but then again, we are talking about a world in which toys talk - so
I guess anything is possible …
Moving on to number 5 we have Buzz Lightyear Dies[d].
We talked at the start of the video about the posibility of Woody dying in Toy Story
4 - well Im afraid this sort of morbid speculation isnt over - some people think its Buzz Lightyear
thats getting the chop, so to speak.
This is mainly based on what Tim Allen, who voices Buzz, said in an interview on The Talk
-I gotta resist getting emotional.
I don’t want to give it away, but this is an incredibly great story.
“It is so emotional, it’s so funny, it’s so big, the idea they’ve come up with, I’m
startled.
I couldn’t even get through the last scene.
“I would love to be a Washington leaker.
I just can’t do it.
I can’t give any more away.
“They’ve got great characters but a couple of scenes toward the end were really hard
to get through.
I couldn't even get through the last scene- … is that because Buzz dies?
That would be a pretty good reason for why he couldn't get past the last scene.
Next up at number 4 we have Real Mutants.
For a childrens movie, those mutants in the first toy story were pretty creepy.
Some of you may have found comfort in the fact that those creatures don't exist in real
life and that they exist only in the movie - well sorry to burst your bubble but thats
not entirely true.
In the early 90s, the Unknown Museum in Marin California featured a host of mutant toys
as part of their exhibition.
It just so happened that this exhibition was seen by the Toy Story animators.
They were inspired by what they saw and created their own ones in real life which in turn
would go on to inspire their designs for the mutant toys in the movie.
That means, that somewhere out there, tucked away in a dark and dusty box, those mutant
toys may really exist … waiting … and waiting …
Coming in at the number 3 spot we have Andys Money.[e] This is a Reddit theory put forward
by user Just Embarrassing who said that Andy doesnt really love Woody, he just knows his
value.
In Toy Story 2 we learn that Woodie used to be part of the hit TV show Woodys Roundup
along with Jessie, Stinky Pete and Bullseyes.
Andy must be aware of this - he even refers to Jessie as Bazooka Jane.
The only way he would have known this is if he looked it up.
If he did that, hed know that these toys together would be worth a lot of money.
Perhaps thats why he cared about them so much - he just wanted them to increase in value
to the point where selling them would get a lot of money for he and his sister as well
as their Mum who is presumably a single parent.
Now, this isnt to say that Andy doesnt like Woody - but maybe the money is a huge bonus,
shall we say …
Moving on to number 2 we have Woodys Girlfriend.
This one may only be scary to those of you who believe in the true love of Woody and
Bo Peep - it was actually a pretty close call.
When Pixar first wrote Toy Story they didnt want Bo Beep to be Woodys girlfriend, they
actually wanted it to be Barbie.
I know - can you imagine - Woody and Barbie.
Fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you see it, Mattel, the owners of Barbie,
didnt have much faith in Toy Story and so they didnt give permission for her to be used
in the first movie.
For many Toy Story fans, this is a very close call and a scary one to think that Woody and
Barbie were very close to being an item …
And finally at number 1 we have The Power of Imagination[f].
This theory is based on the growing assumption among a number of Toy Story fans that the
reason toys can walk and talk is soley down to the kids imagination.
It is literally the childs imagination that lives them the ability to walk and talk.
Support for this theory grew after the release of the Toy Story 4 trailer which showed a
new toy made out of a spork and some household objects claiming that it didnt belong there
and it isnt a toy.
Well - perhaps that means that kids can bring any object to life, even normal household
ones.
Perhaps this is a clue as to what is to come in the next movie - if a child has an imagination
strong enough, they can turn any inanimate object, even a weapon, into a walking talking
entity with its own free will … now that would be an interesting story …
Alright guys there we go, some more scary toy story theories - Im not gonna lie to you
