You know, a lot of older people worry about becoming obsolete in their own way. Welcome to FRESH AIR.Although that scene is, you know, the toys worrying about being obsolete, I think it speaks to adults, because I think probably a lot of parents worry about becoming irrelevant in the lives of their children after their children grow up.Older adults in the workforce worry about being replaced by younger workers. Let's get our parts together, get ready and go out on a high note.GROSS: That's a scene from "Toy Story 3," and my guests are the director of the film, Lee Unkrich, and the writer, Michael Arndt. ALLEN: (As Buzz) Come on, guys.
Toy Story 3 Full Of Disparate
And the scene that you just played, which we called "Growing Up" when we started writing it, was one of the hardest scenes to write because you're meeting these characters sort of again for the first time, and you have to figure out what their expectations for the future are.And I remember when we first started writing it, we our thought was that, well, Buzz is going to be an optimist, and he's going to hope that they go to college with Andy, and Mr. When you first start writing these films, usually what you're trying to do - I mean, you just sort of have a bag full of disparate ideas, and none of them quite fit together.And so your first concern when you take this over, is you're just trying to make everything fit together on a basic narrative level. MICHAEL ARNDT (Screenwriter, "Toy Story 3"): It's funny.
You get your gold watch and the end of your service to your company. This is part of the natural lifespan of toys, is that you serve, you know, your kid, you play with your kid, and then if you do a good job, you're going to get, you know, sort of rewarded with retirement and put in the attic.And it's a melancholy thing, but it's sort of like you get your watch. This is what happens to toys. They all have decided that they're going to get put in the attic. We did 60 different drafts of this scene while trying to figure out, you know, before we got to the final version.And the big breakthrough was finally deciding okay, they all have already had this conversation before. And Woody, you know, is mature enough to say, well, I don't know what's going to happen.And the problem with that, the problem with that scenario or that setup, is that you end up having these endless conversations in which all the toys stand around and argue with what's about to happen.And I think I went back and counted all the drafts that we did of this scene.
I think people - a lot of people sort of go through life feeling like they work really hard, and they're doing a good job, and they just want some sort of emotional acknowledgment.Mr. And I think that's a universal thing. What they really want is acknowledgment. I think everybody goes through life feeling not everybody, but certainly a lot of people go through life feeling as though the work they do, the job they do at work or at home with their kids is unappreciated or unacknowledged.And I think feels that sense that, you know, these toys feel like they've given themselves over to this child Andy, 100 percent, and played with him and shared so much of his life, and now he's going away.And they don't what they don't they don't want to go with him, necessarily, to college. And I do think it speaks to people's I don't think it's just, you know, old people's fears.

I'm a little rag doll and I've just been put into a knapsack. But it does put you in these sort of odd situations when you're a writer, and suddenly you have to think: Okay. You want to be sort of as emotionally honest and intelligent about what they're going through as you can possibly be. They're all real characters.I mean, to me, I feel like Buzz Lightyear is just as real as Olive Hoover is.

I thought I heard new voices. NED BEATTY (Actor): (as Lotso) Well, hello there. And so here's the kind of warm, inspirational pep talk he gives Andy's toys after Andy's toys are donated to the daycare center.Mr.
ALLEN: (as Buzz) Buzz Lightyear. I'm Lots-O'-Huggin' Bear, but please call me Lotso.Mr.
