1) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. My older grandson has a VCR version of Buzz Lightyear. He has watched it many times. Another younger grandson (in another state) is starting to enjoy "movie nights" at his house so we decided he´d like Buzz (in DVD form now) for his special nights. I wish they´d made more sequels!¤ 2) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. The movie was fine but long for the younger kids. When will Disney come out with the TV EPISODES on DVD??? They are only 30 minutes in length & my son loves them. We would be first in line to buy it. We are SOOOOOO disappointed that Disney has taken the re-runs of Buzz cartoons off the air! Please bring them back!¤ 3) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. i wasn´t too impressed with this animated spin off of the Toy Story
films.i just expected better.the story was pretty weak,but at least
there were a few amusing moments.i found it too preachy myself.i like
the message it has,about friendship and teamwork,but i just thought it
was a bit too unsubtle.kids might like it,considering there was a fair
amount of action.there´s nothing inappropriate that i saw,so it´s
probably suitable for most ages.in fact,the movie is pretty tame,with
pretty much no violence.anyway,this isn´t horrible by any means,it just
isn´t anything special.for me,Buzz Lightyear of Star Command:The
Adventure Begins is a 2/5¤ 4) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. We love this DVD the only thing is there should be more episodes on it! My son was really bummed.¤ 5) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. I´ve found that it´s often dangerous to over-analyze the simple joys of childhood -- ice cream, running in the park, Saturday morning cartoons. And yet here on Amazon, Buzz Lightyear has somehow morphed into a polarizing figure, on par with the likes of Barry Bonds and Ronald Reagan.
Both of my boys were fully hooked by the dazzling "Toy Story" movies -- and, to be fair, most of us parents were big fans as well. So what can we make of "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins"?
If your kids are Buzz devotees -- my sons have all but pushed for matching Star Command tattoos -- this movie is a good bit of fun. The stunning computer animation of the previous movies are missing, save for an early intro scene. Buzz´s beloved three-dimensional movie pals are gone; what we have here is Buzz the cartoon hero.
Brace yourself for plenty of laser blasts, spaceship chases and, well, cartoonish showdowns between Buzz, Emperor Zurg and cast of new Buzz buddies. The movie went over well with the boys, who at 3 and 1 can somehow cope without the Woody and all of the computer animations. The question is -- can we?¤ 6) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. Discover the story behind the ultimate space hero as he stars in his very own cartoon adventure! Woody made it big as the star of his very own TV show and you can bet Buzz Lightyear had an even bigger beginning! In an unforgettable action-packed saga, Buzz takes on the evil Emperor Zurg in intergalactic combat. Together with those hilarious Little Green Men and a whole new cast of exciting characters, Buzz Lightyear takes adventure and heroism to infinity and beyond!¤ 7) DVD DVD Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins by Walt Disney Video. This direct-to-video feature, which serves as a lead-in to the upcoming Disney animated TV series, continues the adventures of Buzz Lightyear from the Toy Story films--and introduces the new supporting cast. Buzz battles the evil Emperor Zurg, who steals the "Unimind," a device that enables three-eyed aliens to function as a single intellect. The aliens, referred to as "LGMs" (little green men), form the support crew that keep Star Command running, but as individual thinkers, they´re inept. During the course of this tongue-in-cheek adventure, Buzz acquires the sidekicks who form Team Lightyear: Booster, an oversized, overeager alien; XR (short for "Experimental Ranger"), one of the aliens´ less successful robot inventions; and the inevitable spunky girl, Princess Mira Nova of the planet Tangeah. The two-dimensional, hand-drawn figure of the three-dimensional, computer-generated Buzz recalls the animated versions of live performers who populated Saturday morning TV during the 1980s. This adventure is typical of current kidvid: it has more special effects and sight gags than the cartoons of 20 years ago did, but the violence-free battles feel very tame. Buzz Lightyear may engage kids who play with the toys, but it won´t appeal to the adults who flocked to the brilliant Toy Story features. --Charles Solomon¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
