Toy Story 4’s new trailer reveals a spork-induced existential crisis

Gambar
Your next existential and emotional crisis has arrived: Disney released the first full length-trailer for Toy Story 4 on Tuesday. The franchise, known for plunging our hearts into various emotional states and examining human frailty through the lens of plastic and cowboy-themed objects, is back again — this time exploring the idea of life’s purpose, duty, and fidelity because of a spork named “Forky.” Last we saw Woody and Buzz and their fellow toys in 2010’s Toy Story 3, Andy (their owner) was headed to college — which led to an existential crisis of sorts for Andy’s toys. In the end, Andy gave his beloved toys to a new child, Bonnie, to take care of them. In this round, Bonnie has “created” a toy named Forky (by pasting googly eyes on a spork) who, apparently because of his past life helping humans consume soups and hearty lunches, doesn’t fully accept his newfound life as a toy. Of course, Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the toys don’t know anything other than being toys
