“The short answer is I’ve stayed out of this ’cause it has nothing to do [with my character],” Tim toldTim originally thought they were creating a live-action movie with"real humans," adding,"What a fun movie that would be." But he then learned the team behind the first four“There’s really noBuzz without Woody,” Tim said."It's a wonderful story. It just doesn’t seem to have any connection to the toy.”Tim went on to mention that he enjoys films with a major plot.
Slow down Gramps- we knew this 6 months ago. Did he just get the telegraph?

In other words ... Light-Year is Trash. - Tim Allen
Why all the photos from 2000 and not the interview?
Tim Allen getting worked up about his artistic vision for Buzz Lightyear is pretty funny to me.
It's okay Tim, we've moved on from you.
That’s why it sucked. That and being woke. Gotta make sure we check the boxes now.
It's adorable watching Tim Allen learn about reboots in real time.
He knows.....
Given his intolerant posts, I say ofctimallen shows that he has no character, so thank goodness.
Yall really dont underatand what this movie is huh? The movie Andy Saw inspiring thr Toy Buzz Lightyear for all kids to buy. Tell me youre dumb as a rock without telling me.
It's more of an alternate universe.
He voiced a toy. He wasn't replaced.
Look at BuzzFeed trying to stir up shit.
Who? That guy who notoriously narc'd on his friends to get out of cocaine charges? Yeah no the real problem has always been hollywood cramming celebrity actors into voice roles that should be done by ACTUAL voice actors. Patrick Warburton voiced Buzz far longer than anybody.
Disney should just take the L, send it to Disney+ and all the other streaming services to try to milk whatever they can from it. Tim is Buzz… he made the character popular so he’ll always be associate with him. Chris is the next guy to play him. The end.
The movie sucked!
Well, duh. It's not supposed to.
Hes right.
It flopped in the box office so he doesn’t have to worry haha
The toy isn’t the person and Allen isn’t the human buzz so his opinion isn’t that significant?
They coming for the children
He's right.
it would be really cool if journalists, and buzzfeed, could stop feigning ignorance of this movie's concept in order to peddle completely fabricated, pseudo-political drama between the actors and studio. alas, your clickbait bullshit persists, to infinity and beyond.
I loved Tim Allen’s voice for buzz but he’s coming across salty here.
You can not watch a movie in America after 2016 (Obama’s join Netflix) and not get brainwashed with woke racist BLM bulshit.
I am seeing a whole bunch of people who agree with the points that Tim Allen is making, yet they are arguing against a viewpoint which is not his, that they are projecting on him. Go figure. The point is Tim said this is not the same Buzz Lightyear, I am comfortable with that.
He has a point. The Buzz we know is a toy, that believes he is the 'real' Buzz, only to realize...he's a toy. Which was a running gag. Remember the other Buzz? Kinda like how we see in TS2, with Woody watching 'Woody's Roundup', and finding out about Bullseye and Jess. --
“His character”. He was only the voice. A sound.
He's right. There is no connection. It was a story created to check of certain lists for those who created it. And it's the loudest secret that they chose Chris Evans as lead because he is such an activist now.
It sucked like a $20 prostitute behind the last dumpster at Red Lobster.
Who? Oh that maga supporter?
He voiced a character it’s not “his” it’s disneys
No one cares about him or Kevin sorbo
yeah...it sucks now.
I’m so glad the new film flopped. Gay sex and they booted Tim Allen. I’m glad it sucks.
Light year a woke dianey flop
Buzz the toy and Buzz the movie hero are obviously going to be two different people with a limited connection. The central concept to Toy Buzz's character development In the Toy Story franchise is severing his identity from that of Movie Buzz and becoming his own person.
When Tim owns his own production company he can make the decisions
Tim has the says bc he's old and been replaced.
Gay
Good for him for making the statement. So many people have tried to turn it into something political cause he’s “conservative”. Thanks to him for showing that that was not the case.
Matt told me the same thing
It makes sense. The Buzz we all know is a toy based off of the 'new' Lightyear, who in that universe is perceived as sentient and real.
It's a cartoon movie.
People keep saying that the movie had nothing to do with the toy. But wouldn't the personality of Buzz the toy be Buzz in the franchise? Since initially Buzz doesn't even believe he's a toy. Sure his relation to Andy's toys doesn't hold but he should act like the same guy.
Why would anyone go see Buzz Lightyear if it’s not voiced by Tim Allen?
YOU...ARE...A...TOY!!!
Disney's story-telling ability has been going down the tubes for years.
Sour grapes much Tim Allen? Your character wouldn't exist without the 'Lightyear' Buzz Lightyear.
Disney damage control...lol
This is why you don’t replace voice actors… think if Darth Vader was played by Tom Cruise instead of James Earl Jones… like iconic characters the way we grew up with Need to be left to the voice actors unless they pass away.
Perfect summation of that completely unnecessary, uninspired film.
He's right. It's a very bad retcon that makes no sense. That movie would never sell lots of toys.
I have all if the Toy Story movies, my husband and I have always gotten a kick out of them. I have no desire to see this latest debacle and I won’t take the grandkids to see it
Its a story about a gay astronaut from the 60s. That happened all the time back then.
Lightyear is the movie Andy watched in toy story films. That’s where the toy came from. Everyone kids or adults I know that has seen Lightyear loved it and said one of the best Pixar movies
Felt like more doubt then confidence that lightyear had as I was growing up
ofctimallen, 'It just seems kind of...I don't know' is how we all felt when the trailers started rolling out.
Yeah but now its all about the gays…leave it to disney to ruin children’s movies
Lightyear is the Worst Pixar film Stupid idea stupid execution
Pretty sure Buzz Lightyear is a toy and not a real man.
He would be wrong.
whatever, we all thought it was George Clooney anyway who cares
It's a cool concept actually: Tim's character is a toy based on a movie about the character. It's like a Batman action figure based on a Batman movie. Not sure anything like this has been done before.
We know Tim. The woke commie mob is not on the American people's side. And disney is part of the problem. Tip of the iceberg in humantrafficking.
Lightyear is basically the prologue of Toy Story right? The movie Lightyear is what inspired the toy gift For Andy for his birthday
Man it’s almost like…. Conservatives made up why Tim wasn’t in the movie as a way to push their stupid religious extremist agenda. How bout that…
Or is it because Disney has become the Right’s latest Ultra Maga target?
Probably because it’s a different character.
Of course it doesn't. Why do you think it flopped?
Evans sucks as Buzz. Bring back Tim Allen.
Get over it, Tim.
It’s a completely different film that has nothing to do with the actual series. I hope it has nothing to do with his original character.
Tim is mad they didn't use him in the movie
So Our first venture into space resulted in a huge colony on a habitable planet?
Jealous because he’s not making money from it 😂 Allen evans, evans wasn’t even a good cap america
Tim Allen is 100% correct the new movie is so misguided and does not even keep to the timeline of Toy Story there are so many current day things that it would never be the movie Andy watched prior to getting BUZZ it is so stupid
You are 'the only' Buzz! This other dude is just trying to ride your coat tails and having a very difficult time holding on!
Imagine caring about any of this
Who cares
Is Tim Allen going through dementia or something? Does he not realize he was literally playing a plastic toy with delusions of grandeur?
Disney Destroys Kids
Guess Tim doesn't get it
It doesn’t. Which is why it flopped. Audiences don’t want Meta. Audiences see buzz lightyear and want tim Allen.
Didn't even bother to watch it LOL it's not the toy I'm not watching it. Hollywood needs to realize he can't just put some random character or random voice into an icon and expect people to go and watch it. I will never watch The lightyear movie. Also it's woke hipster trash
HIS CHARACTER? 😂😂😂 Tim, you're an ACTOR. It isn't YOUR CHARACTER any more than it is mine. 😂😂😂
'Luke Skywalker action figure comments on how 'Star Wars' really has nothing to do with him. 'I am not sure what weird aliens & planets in another galaxy have to do with me?' he said with an implied shrug.'
It's not supposed to... It's the movie that launched the toys that Andy played with... Sheeeeesh people
What? What the what I’m sitting here giggling at how this is even a thought in anyone’s head. Perhaps if he had actually done anything memorable outside of voicing a cartoon? Idk
White guys on minority representation: Get over it snowflake Also white guys: I need my children's cartoons to affirm my identity.
I totally agree with Tim I was disappointed with lightyear, it nothing in relation to the toy, I was like where's the flying, I thought zurg was the father of buzz
I'd disassociate myself considering the new Buzz is a huge flop
Tim is also saying he is out on WOKE agenda of Disney
And his response drips with homophobia and transphobia Just remember as an ally I fully support you and TransIsBeautiful 🦄Dark times ahead but remember we are the light in the darkness ✌️
The movie was terrible. Multiple people got up and left. My 7 year old was pumped to see it and then ended up falling asleep because he said the movie was so boring. It dragged on for what seemed like an eternity.
Sour grapes
Patrick Warburton also voiced this character lol BTW Tim Allen fucked up a coke deal and ratted everyone out. He was caught with kilos and did no time.
The right-wing shtheads are so concerned with what is and what isnt canon in the Toy Story universe. Thats where their priorities are lol Its a movie for 6-yr-olds lol
he played a delusional toy who was under the impression he was the actual character he was based on.
Wtf don't people understand 😂 it's been explained like a million times Jesus!
Should of been him
He should’ve thought about this before he became a Republican
It’s ok Tim we don’t connect you to that trash
Kind of Wtf...
And he be correct... WokeGoesBroke
Yeah, Tim---that was the point. Anyway, why don't you go cry about it on Fox?
I enjoyed the movie; and sox is the cutest!! I want more
Would have watched it if the movie had Tim Allen. But the more I hear of it the worse the movie sounds. Didn't even have any of the animated show's characters. It's a waste of 2 hours.
(YAWN) Sorry, must have must the part where we're supposed to...I don't know, actually care. Seriously, why does it matter what he thinks, I thought he stopped being relevant ages ago.
y'know, far be it from me to agree with Tim Allen, but 'it just seems kind of... I don't know.' is a pretty good description of my feelings as well
Chris always be taking W's
Well, when your goal is to inject gayness into everything, as Satan commands you, then you just end up ruining everything. Filth. God calls it abomination performed by reprobates.
Obviously...because one was a toy.
Had the movie been about a 2022 reboot of the buzz lightyear franchise they couldve done more, but making the movie a 1995 film it doesnt make much sense, had they tried to make it have the feel of a 90's film itd be more understandable. But it just seem like a way to erase BLOSC
yall forget about when buzz had a mental breakdown in the first movie after finding out he's just a toy and not the real buzz? or yall just dense and want reasons to be mad and be like 'hurrr durr liberals bad'
Tim and I agree can agree that Lightyear is an multiverse nonsense story that should not have been made in the 1st place. Overall that movie with Chris is waste of money.
Seems like a very Tim Allen thing to say
I wouldn't want anything to do with this woke ass debacle of a film. 🤢🤢🤢🖕🏳️🌈
Dsiney should really preemptively fire Tim Allen because it's not like this going to get any better. ReCast Santa. Disney doesn't want to be in an Ezra Miller/Johnny Depp situation where their star gets more and more unhinged and dangerous.
Look at Tim Allen. Now look at Chris Evans. Who seems more like a hero to you?
'kind of... i don't know.' Wow, totally groundbreaking statement! And it wasn't 'his' character, he read a script written by someone else who created that character. Who is he to say it has nothing to do with the character? He's not the creator.
Oh yeah…glad that other guy isn’t Captain America. Looks like he never was. Walt is spinning at an rpm that’s never been attained. Where is the Florida sink hole when you need it? We already know where the stink hole is!🤮
Nobody cares
It was not a very good movie. Don’t waste your money on it if you have not seen it. I didn’t even stay to the end. It was that bad.
Glad Tim Allen didn’t subject himself to the homo side of Disney & Pixar. After seeing the Big Hero 6 short I don’t think I’ll be supporting Disney anymore. Nothing about female periods but the LGBT+ stuff is a disgrace. No child should be subjected to that Epsteinism!
buzzfeed you suck
That was the whole fucking point, Tim.
Golly, I didn't realize that Tim Allen created Buzz Lightyear. He should totally sue Disney and Pixar. I'd totally watch that trial.
Who gives a fuck?
Isn't it just a spinoff?
yeah buzz lightyear isn't down with sucking cock
Nobody cares what he thinks.
...So, he's telling Pixar that he knows the character better then them?
That is why it bombed.
Buzz with hair is sort of odd lol.
This is fantastic!
Shut up Tim Allen.
👏
who fucking cares Tim. Not the audience
The only story should be that some Americans will whine about anything at all, even the really rich ones (maybe especially them).
He was the screenwriter?
Tim Allen voiced Buzz the toy in Toy story. Chris Evans voiced the real person Buzz on whom the toy was modeled after in Lightyear. Not the same character .. why is this hard to understand ?!
Thank The Goddess That It Has Nothing To Do w/ Tim Allen & I Hope It Never Will Again! A Homophobic Bigot Is NOT a Good Example For Kids, To Say The Least. Maybe It Passed For Ok 20 Yrs Ago, But I'm So Glad That Today's Kids Accept Diversity & People As They Really Are. future
Chris evans flop
None of the movies where Tim was the main character were any good, none of his shows were good either
The crazy right wing tripping out over cartoon characters today. Because their rabid homophobia is absolutely all consuming. Poor dears.
It’s not about the character he played. So of course it’s not supposed to feel the same
Tim Allens Buzz Lightyear OC would def be a red Buzz Lightyear named Tim Lightyear
they should have used Tim Allen and kept the same personality of that character....it would have been a far better movie
Go woke, go broke!
An ex drug dealer in college have a lot to say about an ex character he no longer voice over..
Well, Buzz in the Toy Story movies was about the toy, not the actual Buzz Lightyear. This movie is about the actual Buzz Lightyear. Fixed your problem, Tim!
I don’t know Tim you seem kind of… I don’t know… Like a previous cocaine seller who screamed the all the children on the Santa Clause set thus making you infamous in the area where it was filmed…
Tim Allen is talking for the first time about Disney Pixar's latest film, Lightyear, starring Chris Evans as Buzz Lightyear.
It has everything AND nothing to do with the toy. It's part of the franchise, it's about the actual person the toy was made about, not about the toy. So, Tim Allen can be a toy, Chris Evans can be the actual person. No need for it to be the same, they're two different entities.
Building a reputation takes years of effort, and destroying it only takes a few seconds. The new ideology will never be accepted, and it is reality.
