One of the most beloved movie universes of all time is actually pretty terrifying if you think about what it means for both toys and humans.
The Toy Story franchise is one of the most beloved series in cinema. The original broke new ground in animation, and they've been celebrated by both critics and moviegoers for their heart, hilarity and storytelling. However, not every aspect of the Toy Story universe is uplifting.
The next time audiences see Sid in Toy Story 3, however, he is already working as a trash collector. While he does have a good stable job, he seems to have abandoned the creativity of his youth in favor of a manual labor-intensive career. The knowledge that he had been tormenting toys—or more likely the fear that he now has of toys—established in his interaction with Woody was clearly a turning point in Sid's Toy Story arc.
One clever, well-organized army numbering in the hundreds that doesn’t require food, sleep or water, is small enough to maintain stealth and has soldiers capable of flight and high speed is a sobering thought. Add in the fact that some display leadership qualities and have vendettas against humans, and suddenly Woody scaring Sid to save the day has some terrifying implications. Had Woody and Buzz not bonded so much with Andy, the series could have definitely taken a very different turn.
Jessie displays classic signs of claustrophobia in Toy Story 2 as a result of her time being stuffed in storage in the dark. This is especially noteworthy, as it's a condition that’s likely prevalent in the toy world. Toys put into storage of any kind suffer from never ending dark, the constant crush of other inhabitants, and a mind-bending lack of stimulation.
In Toy Story 4 Ducky cries out when his toes get clamped in Buzz’s retractable helmet. Multiple times in the series toys grunt as they struggle to lift or push heavy objects, indicating there is some semblance of physical toll that comes with the action. While their rules keep them from expressing any pain while in “play mode”, it’s clear that toys can suffer physical pain, and likely do when playtime goes beyond what their parts are supposed to do.
