Why TOY STORY is about CULTS (THEORY) 

Here from Alex Bale

I can’t believe I got completely bamboozled, and didn’t realise there was so much of the video left.

It's 4am right now and after watching this and the snow piercer video I think Ive found my new favourite channel

The reverse clickbait is real Title much less intriguing than the actual theory in it

Today we learned more about cults, toys and how cool Rhino Stew is in making such videos.

"It's not a cult, it's a dogmatic school of thought taught by a for-profit organization with the promise of social and professional opportunities." -Todd Chavez

“Part 1: Andy’s Coming” Yeah I guess he’s just at that age

Personally, I think that the three eyed aliens is an ascension cult.

This analysis should be compulsory viewing for anyone who says you can’t critique certain movies because they are “a kids film about space wizards” (and/or other incoherent defenses of terrible films). This trilogy of “kids movies” has so many layers

If you notice you've been comparing Lotso to Satan then if you've ever read the Bible and know about the battle of Armageddon then you will know that God wins and chain Satan to hell for eternity and Lotso is tied to the grill of a truck that's sort of the same thing but you said it was like the Lord of the Flies no it's more like the end of the battle of Armageddon.

I always interpreted that the toys in toy story would gain a personality based on what they were created for, and what they are meant to be. Many of the toys in toy story take on the the role of being played with by kids as that is what they were created for. the three eyed aliens in the claw machine were created to be claw machine toys, so take on the persona of waiting to be selected by the claw, after all, wouldn't it be odd if the toys created to be placed into a claw machine started trying to escape the claw machine, and how it makes sense that they would try to stop Woody for breaking the rules of the machines creation, which is that its intended you get one toy at a time.

those designs on the plates at 15:10 strongly resemble astrological glyphs, such as the one directly left of woody being an almost deadon Mercury glyph, the horseshoe at 7 oclock looks basically identical to the glyph for the nodes of the moon. not to disparage astrology but by creating nods to Spacey/occult symbolism that also echo a lot of cult symbols amd mythology like heavens gate etc, perhaps this was another nod from the creators that this is the direction they were trying to subtly alude to. quite interesting amd i think helps validate your theory

There’s also the cleric from Toy Story that time forgot, there was an entire franchise of toys called battlesaurs who didn’t even know that they only existed as toys and nothing more. Their kid mason was stuck in the other room playing video games, because of this they had a similar delusion as buzz from the first movie, They had a cult like world of their own until reptillus turned off mason’s video game and let himself be played with.

‘How Toy Story deals with God, Cults, and Satan’ Me: “OMG please don’t ruin Toy Story for me”😩 Also Me: * continues to watch with no obligation too*

Man, what started as a joke video turned out to be one of the best movie analyses I've seen. Hope that the Snowpiercer video won't be your most viewed video forever (since you have lots of wonderful ideas and an interesting angle) and you'll eventually find your audience. Big up!

Im really just happy that the people behind toy story took the movie so seriously, and sincerley. Like the fact that much of thought behind it was very purposeful means something. I feel like a modern animated movie would play off Jessies truama for jokes or a quick one off moment that didnt connect to the themes of the story.

When Jessie says "I won't go back in the dark" that hits so much harder once your an adult and have some horror under your belt.

Dnt knock ur obvious calling to find darkness in the light. Its great, u great.

Please more of this stuff! Both the snowpiercer video and this one were extremely well done and intriguing!

You thoroughly have bamboozled me sir. Beautiful video regardless

Nobody: Rhino Stew: "The toys live in societies"

Thank you for the laughs and blowing my mind with a whole new look at the series. I anticipate the 4th one even more now! Bravissimo!!!

You need to make more of these videos, they are amazing. I NEED MORE

This was amazing. Glad I subscribed. Rare content, but worth the wait.

I’ve watched the Snowpiercer video 10 times and I’m sure I will re watch this one as well, great job on the editing, very entertaining. Please come up with more “crazy” theories 👍🏻

This is the most interesting video I have seen in my life. Also, love the channel and your hard work that you put into the quality of your videos is very appreciated!

YES another video, I've been waiting....

U actually have a talent for this, Rhino Stew this is definitely your calling. Keep the good work up. Looking forward to your future analyses mate!

This is so good! Such a well made video. Thank you 💕

Making it go full circle made this the most satisfying video I’ve seen! Great perspectives 🔥

such good content and story telling, love the theory videos man keep it up!

I love Rhino Stew, watched your web series and it was fucking awesome! Now I’ve came back to watch “these videos”, XD, keep it up.

Took me til this yr but I’m here, snowpiercer video on point mate. Well done thanks for the effort

I envy your thought process. I can imagine myself spending the day talking our brains out... Just saw the Loompas. I'm mesmerized

bro your video essays are home runs every time. please keep creating you have fantastic voice

You deserve more subs because this type of content is so great.

This video deserved more views! Another great works.

I wish he made more movie reviews, the two I've seen him do are so entertaining

Protect this man at all cost His theories are soooo much more fun and intricate than game theory Because rhyno stew's theories are more creepy and dark centric while matpat makes his theories fun and scientific

So glad I took the suggestion from Alex Bale's video! This is so interesting!!! New subscriber right here

awesome video man. Keep up the good shit

Me when it turns 2028: well I guess the garbage man forgot to take the recycling out ;)

This deserves many more views. I reckon if you can get a somewhat regular upload schedule like you mentioned in your most recent video, then I think you have a serious chance on this platform. I can't wait to see what you make in the future

I love ur videos and serious question will you ever upload daily? Because u really should ur videos are great

How I've missed your uploads

i hope you make more videos i think they are great content in todays youtube. greetings fro germany

I did not expect this, not complaining but wow. This is something yo. Rhino Stew, please make more theories. I find your videos, quite entertaining.

great video rhino!!

Your channel is mad underrated.

This was a roller coaster of ideas. 1 question, any news about 2 Kawaii 4 Comfort

Holy shit,here’s some skill,loved every and single one of ya videos mate,hope to see more in the future

I cried when buzz takes the leap of faith in part one :(

Holy sheet finally new videos bro!

BRO CLAW!!! lmao you went full circle with the claw!! Haha. Amazing video man.

“Because Eu have a very warped sense of ‘fun’” I have never related to a quote every in my life

I watched this and was surprised by the other content on the channel

I love these videos, they really make me think

definitely a great video. I feel like the alien toys only have a narrow perspective on the world, like in the cave with the shadow thing whatever philosophy thing

I'm just here waiting for you take on Toy Story 4 :)

Alex Bale brought me here

Blessed with a such great video, thank you man!

I saw the first movie in the theater with my father when it was groundbreaking. I never felt much need to continue watching them, though I might have seen some. Thanks for making me think!

Beautifully done

I'm just waiting for the view count to spontaneously erupt: it's a well written, well edited, Quality video. And, I dont often offer candid compliments to content creators in their comment sections.

Thanks to you I know how to re- enjoy a film just by looking at it in a different way

Nice vid, keep it up

Please post more of these

Great video. Definitely a new way to look at the toy story franchise. I will never be able to see it another way. One thing though. What about the part where the toys rise up against one of the Gods? Where Woody tells Sid to play nice.

This was a really well done and interesting video! I never thought about the biblical parallels in Toy Story 😅

I literally yelled THE CLAW at (you know which part) great video man.

I want to see more of these kinds of vids

How the actual fuck did I get goosebumps from this video? This is amazing

You’re back!!!! 💖💖💖💖

We need more videos like this

That was fucking awesome. Subscribed. More please.

So we’ve got 6 years left until the Heaven’s Gate prophecy could come to fruition

Great video💪🏻

Holy SHIT my mind was BLOWN the last 3 mins of this video AND your Snowpiercer video.. In snowpiercer is was the " Oompa Loompas went extinct so they had to switch to children to work the engine " and in this it was the " Literal deus ex machina " hahaha. Damn that was good

well that escalated quickly

when I saw the thumbnail I literally wanted to screenshot it and make it a meme because it made me laugh so hard

Please do more videos on dark theories of kids films please

Amazing insight.

In Toy Story 4, is Forkey “evolving” from animal to person (by which I mean toy)? Is Forkey a rope stretched between the Cutlery and the Supertoy, a rope over an abyss?

When you compared the clouds in Andy's room to the clouds at the end of toy story 3, it blew my mind.

I've noticed that cults hang on to people who are emotionally vulnerable; a very rational person would just leave but some people FEEL like they can't. I'm not the type of person to get sucked in a toxic cult but I feel bad for those who are.

ok you should make more theories on movies if you have any inclination to, this video is exactly as good as the original snowpiercer one

You guys deserve more subs lol

I love the picture of shoko asahara.

Would love to see an update with toystory 4

I clicked because the title is right up my alley but seen i was a Subscriber. Im like what??? Whos this guy? He doesnt seem familiar? Then the Showpiecer equals Willy Wonka popped up and i was like OOOOOHHHH! Thats who this is :D I am in for a treat!

Next Alex Bale right here, W video!

It’s 3:31 AM right now, and this is better than sleeping

Here after watchung the Alex Bale video

Change the title to the actual theory!!! The video is a lot better then what I could of expected going in!!! The title lacking is really bothering me lol good work

Where you at bro need more video like thsee

The "kids are gods" part holds up even better now that it's canon that the kids actually do give the toys life and sentience

Children trapped in a place where there are no adults would always go down into something like a cult. Anyway, Jeremy Clarkson strapped a teddy bear in front of his sports lorrie

This was so, so, so, good

I had a brief moment of thinking the trash can scene was a reference to The Ring, but it didn't come out until 3 years later. Mayyyybe the writers saw/read Ringu (the notion of sending the toys to Japan opens this possibility a little) but I doubt it. Still, neat parallel.

Oh my god this is so brilliant and funny, thank you
