About this deal

When Alisha catches Buzz doing a mission log, she tells him nobody ever listens to them. In Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins, Warp Darkmatter made the same remark about mission logs. Super Soft for Ultimate Cuddles: Embrace the coziness of this plush, featuring super soft materials that make it perfect for hugging, cuddling, and snuggling. But the thing that made Sox so fun and special is that he clearly has a personality. At one point, Sox makes it clear that even he thinks he has made a mistake when it comes to being at Buzz’s side as he tells him,

This is the ninth and final Pixar film to feature the full 2011 Disney opening logo as a closing logo after Finding Dory, Cars 3, Coco, Incredibles 2, Toy Story 4, Soul, Luca, and Turning Red. Darby is seen wearing a Space Ranger uniform that belonged to a ranger named Tempus, a nod to one of Buzz's earlier names Tempus from Morph.

In addition, for the IMAX version, there are nearly 30 minutes of scenes that were produced in the nearly IMAX standard ratio, which is the 1.43:1 aspect ratio, making the film the first Pixar film to have selected scenes to be produced in this ratio. This is the third Pixar film to have a post-credits scene play after the production logos, after WALL-E and Soul. While Sox might immediately bring to mind Jonesy from “Alien” and “Aliens” (“Aliens” is MacLane’s favorite film), he said that Sox’s coloring wasn’t an explicit reference to that James Cameron classic. “I mean, we tried different colors even, and I ended up going with orange because it just stood out better from the rest of the outfits,” MacLane explained. “Obviously from Morris the cat to Garfield to Jonesy, there’s a rich history of orange cats in popular culture, but it just ended up being a contrast thing.” Sox’s design also combines the movie’s aesthetic directive of being “chunky” like consumer products of the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. “He feels very much like a robot of that time,” MacLane said.

A crate resembling WALL-E in his cube-shaped body can be seen outside of the abandoned hangar where Buzz and Sox go in to find a new ship. Another crate like this is seen in a part of the mining facility as it breaks apart. Andrew Stanton, who served as the executive producer of Lightyear, previously voiced Zurg in Toy Story 2, to which Zurg himself is voiced by James Brolin in this film. Tim Allen and Chris Evans both share the same birthday but are 28 years apart, with Tim being born in 1953 and Chris in 1981. Sox is Buzz’s personal companion and provides the humor throughout the movie. Initially, the space ranger doesn’t want to deal with the cat, but the pair ends up developing a close bond. The cat proves himself to be extremely useful, resourceful and very loyal. Sox is even instrumental in helping Buzz get a good night’s sleep, apparently suggesting playing peaceful sounds like whale and white noises to help the space ranger sleep. Sox may have been inspired by Chris Evans’ dog. Buzz is reunited with Alisha, who is now his superior and brings him up to date on how his trip is affected by time and ask that he abandon the mission. Buzz additionally learns that in the intervening years, Alisha met a scientist named Kiko and is now engaged to her while the colony has chosen to build living quarters. Buzz is given his and is additionally given a small robotic cat named Sox who was designed to be his close companion, while also displaying useful technological devices within him. Buzz has a nightmare about his crash and decides to give Sox a mission to find a suitable formula for a fuel source. He meets up with Alisha and manages to convince her to let him go again until they find the right fuel to get off the planet.Made of soft, easy-to-touch fabric, this soft doll makes the perfect companion for naptime, nighttime or any time. The A.V. Club’s Tomris Laffly, meanwhile, came down somewhere in the middle, saying “ Lightyear both struggles to justify the proposition it suggests in its opening and feels like an irrelevant oddity within the beloved Pixar series it claims to expand upon.” This is also the third overall animated Disney production to feature a same-sex couple kissing, after The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder episode " Father Figures" and The Owl House episode " Clouds on the Horizon". With Buzz captured, Darby asks Sox to know if he could help fly the Armadillo, which Sox tells her that there is no fuel inside just before she gets into an argument with Mo, blaming each other for getting in this situation. However, when Izzy notices the door open inside Zurg's ship, Izzy tells Darby, Mo, and Sox to enter inside the ship to go into space and help rescue Buzz just as Sox follows alongside the Junior Patrol. Some scream canisters from Monsters, Inc. can be seen in the abandoned hangar, near where the Space Ranger suits are stored.

This is the first Pixar film of the 2020s to be produced in a 2:39:1 aspect ratio (for non-IMAX theaters), since Soul, unlike Luca and Turning Red, which were produced in the 1.85:1 aspect ratio. But that moment was not the only scene stealer for Sox, as he also helped to close out the trailer by offering to help Buzz fall asleep with a wide range of sound effects. And while Buzz chooses white noise, the two say good night to each other before the robotic cat opens his mouth to give him the white noise he requested. It was weird and wonderful all in one moment. When asked about the relationship between Lightyear and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, a Toy Story spin-off series that also serves as an in-universe production starring the Buzz character, MacLane, who directed the CG opening sequence for Star Command, [3] said that he did not have it in mind while working on the film, but always pictured the series being developed in-universe after a trilogy of Lightyear films. [4] [5] He later explained that Lightyear serves as a "live-action" film within the Toy Story universe, whereas Star Command serves as a hand-drawn animated series based on the film, from which the toy versions of Buzz and Zurg derive from. [6] [7] Casting [ ]The protective armor in Mo's suit resembles the bunch of grapes that fall on one of the ants at the beginning of A Bug's Life. Detailed Plush Sculpting and Embroidered Features: Fall in love with the meticulous plush sculpting and delicate embroidery that bring Sox to life with remarkable attention to detail.

Sox resembles a ginger and white robot cat with green eyes and wears a blue collar with his name engraved on a tag. I tell myself in my brain [Pixar creators] made him those colors to model after Dodger,” Evans told ET Canada, referring to Sox’s appearance. “When I first saw Sox, I said ‘you know aside from the fact that he’s a cat, all I see is Dodger.” In a post-credits scene, ERIC finally maps out the perfect route to take to the hangar, only to realize that everyone has already left. Buzz quotes a number of lines that he (and Utility Belt Buzz from Toy Story 2) originally said in the Toy Story franchise (besides his signature catchphrase, "To infinity and beyond"). We asked Evans if his relationship with his very social media-worthy dog Dodger inspired Buzz’s relationship with Sox. “I was hoping that Dodger informed the creation of Sox,” Chris Evans joked. “That’s not the case. But you can’t deny the coloring. It’s pretty similar.”The film is rated PG by the MPA, unlike the main films of the Toy Story franchise which were rated G. Toy Story: "Terrain seems a bit unstable. No readout yet if the air is breathable, and there seems to be no sign of intelligent life anywhere."
