Talk:The Brave Little Toaster

message: Does anyone know where I can download the four sung songs from the movie?  For some reason iTunes doesn't have it and I can't seem to find it anywhere else!!  I really don't want to buy the whole CD either.

message: "Many parents were upset by some of the film's content, which they considered inappropriate or too graphic for children"
What exactly is "many"?  This statement needs a source (such as a newspaper article or something).  Doubtless SOME parents were upset, but there are always some parents who are upset for some reason, regardless of the film.  Is there any proof that MANY were upset? Esn 00:20, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I just saw "Starz inside: The Pixar Story" and in it, John Lasseter said he was originally set to direct the Brave Little Toaster and he pitched it as a CGI movie Like Pixar would later do.  he was told "The only reason to make it with the computer is if we can do it faster or cheaper" and was then Fired from Disney for it, and the movie was shelved before production picked up with the people who made the final movie.
I find it odd that none of this is mentioned here, I think a paragraph should be added to the beginning of "Production" detailing this.

message: Who keeps changing the names of the songs? The soundtrack CD has the musical numbers as "City of Lights" (with an "S"), "It's a 'B' Movie," "Cutting Edge" and "Worthless." The article has this bogus bit about what the songs are "sometimes called" and claims "City of Lights" is really "City of Light" and "It's a 'B' Movie" is really "B-Movie Show." If there's a source that shows that the soundtrack listing is wrong, I'd like to see it.

thread_title:  Song names 

message: This article has been bugging me for a while so I took the time today to really clean it up, trying to discard a lot of the detail that only really makes for a fan page.  Hopefully it really sounds much more like an encylopedic article now!  One thing I thought might still be important to add is a note on gender in the movie, how the appliances are "he" and "she" in the film based mostly on the sound of their voices.  Even in the novella by Disch, the appliances are occasionally referenced by gender pronouns so I don't think the note in the Comparisons to the book section is entirely accurate. Cheers!

thread_title:  Whew!  Did some housecleaning 

message: A request was made for the article to be considered for B-class. Looking over the article, I did some minor cleanup (remember to keep contractions out of the article unless they're used in quotes) and rearranged some of the sections. To improve the article to B-class, the article is going to need additional sourcing and expansion. If possible try and find more information about the production section, as well as financial details about the release. The screenshot does not meet the non-free image criteria for inclusion since the movie poster already provides a view of the characters. If you wanted to include a screenshot, perhaps one could be added that illustrates one of the controversial scenes in the film. I would also recommend taking a look at this help page to see how this article can be further improved. Once these issues are addressed, feel free to renominate. If you have any questions, let me know. Good work so far, keep it up! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 03:20, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

message: I've added in Toy Story, considering the similarities in storyline and concept of inanimate objects coming to life in the absense of people, for which Toy Story is now the most known example of this concept. In terms of story you can note the appliances feel abandoned (as do the toys in Toy Story when Buzz is introduced). They also have to learn to work together (as do Buzz and Woody in Toy Story). Near the end of the film the appliances are about to be crushed (like the toys nearly melted on the conveyor in Toy Story 3) but Rob returns (the toys find Andy again in Toy Story 3 who then donates them to a young girl as he is now too old to enjoy them). I'm sure someone else could find more similarities too -- not sure Toy Story 2 has any though. 109.156.83.88 (talk) 10:56, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  BLT Remake?! WHAT?! 

message: Hi , I noted your revert here. This is a weird one, so your input is appreciated. The existing source (see the liner note printed as page 17) says that the film was released July 13, 1987 at the Wadsworth Theater in Los Angeles. An editor changed the value here, citing this source, which is often used in film articles, although the data is not as specific as the liner notes. I'm not quite sure what to do about this. I actually went through some Google newspaper archives and found one newspaper that claimed the film premiered at the Park City Film Festival in January 1988, so there are inconsistencies everywhere. Thoughts? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:50, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I have no idea which reference to believe although the liner note seems the most likely correct. My reverts were generally because the existing reference was deleted and info changed to something else and no new reference added. I guess with conflicting info in reliable sources we should document and reference them all and let the reader sort it out. Geraldo Perez (talk) 05:17, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

message: I once edited this page to have a more accurate voice cast section since there were a bunch of fake names for the characters listed, and it seems like there are unsourced claims of what brands of appliances some of them are... I know this because some of these are actually headcanons I made up for fanfiction reasons years ago outside of this site. I don't know who saw these ideas and thought they were real despite me making it clear that I just made them up. Anyway, none of the Cutting Edge appliances have specific brands. The telephone is not a smartphone, the hanging lamp isn't a hanging lamp and a desk lamp at the same time, the black-and-white TV is just called TV by the characters in the movie. Rob's last name isn't Minkoff, it's McGroarty. Rob's mother is unnamed and Chris has no specified last name. The best improvement of the edits I made sometime ago are from 17 October, 2020, so I would recommend reverting the voice cast list to this.
Whoever is vandalizing this article repeatedly, please kindly refrain from renaming these characters and insisting that the appliances in the Cutting Edge sequence have specific brands. No brands are confirmed and you're just happening to use ideas I got and claiming they're facts, and I would rather people not push my personal ideas as real facts.
