Many human projects have nothing to do with reproduction, but they are important because they are human projects. Aren’t you implicitly assuming that the agency of those beings is no different from the agency of humans? There’s no basis for making that statement about the toys, though — other than overstretching an analogy derived from the fact that some of them have humanoid appearance, maybe. This may make sense for human clones (I haven’t read NLMG but it’s clearly not the only SF to deal with clones and their potential place in society), but is rather more questionable for toys.
She isn’t so much corrupted as she is another example of the franchise’s sophisticated emotional understanding: Nobody is beyond saving. *I haven’t read NLMG, so I’m responding only to what I’ve heard of the story. The best villains are so because all too often they make more sense than we’re willing to admit. ), and (2) abandonment (hence the pathos of Jessie’s “When Somebody Loved Me,” which changes the whole tenor of TS2). Both are manufactured lifeforms with agency. The franchise has received 10 Academy Award nominations and won three, and some critics have even argued that the first three films are the greatest movie trilogy of all time. We define _Toy Story_ as fantasy because we don’t believe in animate toys, but if someone does believe in saints who perform miracles, then a story about saints performing miracles isn’t fantasy, to them. right?

The Toy Story franchise has featured some of animation’s most compelling villains, and they’ve all got some very good points to make.
What I mean is that fantasy as a genre is deeply related to Arthurian myths and other medieval fantastic narratives (e.g. Making westerns less popular with kids, as Stinky Pete declared "Once the astronauts went up, children only wanted to play with Space Toys (Which is what he calls action figures)." It seems to be working.). On the cover of Life magazine showing the success of the show, it has the date January 12.
Woody mounts Bullseye, telling the horse to "ride like the wind!". There are certain things you will never be able to avoid as you go from child to adult – childish destruction, fear of abandonment, resentment over your place in the world, fear of your loss of purpose, and eventually finding your path to contentment – and that’s something Pixar have keenly understood from the very beginning. In fantasy, the landscape and everyone in it are projections of the hero’s soul and mind, or else they represent a spiritual test of his character. Toy Story 2 echoes the pre-adolescent struggle with no longer being a kid and looking for your purpose in the world.
What makes Gabby’s arc so compelling is that she has a great point, one that is sympathetic and adds emotional shades to the film’s wider thematic concerns.

As far as we know, it’s conditional and self-imposed in both cases.
So, I think both Phil Dick and Kazuo Ishiguro (much more subtly, of course) are suggesting that we dehumanize people in ways we’re hardly capable of even examining, and that this is a big problem. What about the cow in the Restaurant at the End of The Universe that is bread to tell diners how much it wants to be eaten?
