His know-it-all personality is reveals itself when he makes the wrong decision to ride in the back of a Pizza Planet van, and when he fears that Sid’s toys will eat him. Woody’s naiveté about the outside world comes into sharp focus after his plan to dispose of Buzz backfires. Woody’s other insecurities emerge as he immaturely ridicules Buzz over his real space ranger delusion and berates his friends over their infatuation with Andy’s new toy. He’s unwilling to share the spotlight as Andy’s favorite toy, and quickly becomes jealous of Buzz Lightyear upon his arrival. Yet, throughout the first Toy Story, Woody exhibits child-like tendencies. Tom Hanks certainly fits the bill there’s been no better person to voice Woody than the man dubbed “America’s Dad.’” Everyone’s favorite sheriff is the leader of Andy’s toys, a role that’s suited to confident, strong, charismatic individuals. From childhood to fully-fledged adult, Woody’s tale explores the emotions and personality traits we encounter over time, and the life lessons that shape the people we become.Ĭomparing Woody, an old-fashioned pull-string toy, to anything other than an adult may seem strange.
Woody is the driving force of the 24-year-long Toy Story franchise, but his story is more than his unwavering relationships with Andy and Bonnie it’s a metaphor for the growth that viewers experience during our lives.
