The Brave Little Toaster

All toasters toast.............utter crap (and bowser)

Okay, this is partly because i don't have time to do my Little Miss Sunshine review right now but also because it just made me think ".....what,why,ahhh!!?!". (But i will tomorrow-hopefully)

Earlier today i got bored so i decided to watch about 3 minutes worth of The Brave Little Toaster (i don't own it, i watched it on youtube) and it's extraordinarily messed up, it's about a toaster who is on some crappy adventure, probably to return to his master (a four year old boy who really seems to get some strange sort of a kick out of over-using household appliances (i blame the parents)). The toaster is accompanied by a lamp, a hoover, a radio and a electronic heat blanket thing which the toaster seems to fall in love with in this short scene i watched.
What made the whole thing extraordinarily weird for me, was a) how the toaster and the lamp described love. The toaster described it as "like seeing a new loaf of bread" and "that warm toasty feeling inside" whereas the lamp described love by the so called pleasure he gets out of a four year old boy changing his bulb.
b) this is what mainly freaked me out, and it's the fact the toaster has a nightmare and in this nightmare a clown dressed as a fireman petrifies the toaster by saying the word "run" which causes me to completely re-think my life whilst watching a toaster attempt the well known skill of running.

Eventually the toaster is attacked by a Tsunami of forks and falls from a great height into a bath tub, oh and to make it even more scary.......THE TOASTER BURNT THE TOAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! shock horror!!!! not only is this every toasters nightmare it's also every film critics. Yet i do find some pleasure for hating a film about a living toaster, and even more for it's sequel (the brave little toaster goes to mars, which i haven't seen, but to be honest i don't think i need to).
