Despite how much I love the Toy Story movies, at the time I am writing this, I still have not seen 2022’s Lightyear. I don’t really have any specific reason for passing on the film (I was honestly never that bothered by Chris Evans replacing Tim Allen), other than the fact that I already had a spinoff movie about the Space Ranger growing up called Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins.
Released straight to video in 2000 and starring Allen reprising the title role, the feature is essentially the pilot for an animated series that lasted only a couple seasons, but is fondly remembered. Yet, at this time, neither the movie, nor the TV show, is available to stream with a Disney+ subscription, or anywhere else, which is why I had to revisit it the same way I first saw it: on VHS, which I happened to find at a thrift store recently.
