Toy Story 5, World Premiere, Tom Hanks interview

No kid has ever had their feelings hurt by a toy that they are playing. Right? But every kid, probably every kid, has had their feelings hurt by something that has been typed about them on a screen that they have, either a phone or anything like that. Without a doubt. The tools at our disposal are wonderful things, and without a doubt, they are responsible for some very cruel moments in people’s lives. Now, you got to, you got to use one, but you always have to, I think, invest in the other. Tools are great to use, without a doubt, but if you’re not having fun with toys, if you’re not playing with your friends and their toys, you’re missing out on life.

I think the connection that he has with everybody else, you know? These, these movies are really about, um, deep, long-lasting friendships, and how, um, adversity comes along, but everybody can get together and help everybody, help the other person out when they, uh, when they need a hand. I think it’s weird that these, these stories about toy, toy Slinky dogs and, uh, marionettes and styrene spacemen end up being a lesson for us all in the real world, you know? You probably, you got it. Do you have a Jessie in your life? You got a, you got a Buzz in your life, right? All right. There you go. You’re Woody to somebody’s Buzz, and somebody’s Buzz is, uh, to your Woody. So that’s a good thing.
