Great Music The Brave Little Toaster (1987) Without the skill of the animators and the virtuosity of the voice actors and actresses, the inanimate in The Brave Little Toaster would not be believably lifelike. In a great show of virtuosity, Jon Lovitz performed the voice acting for the radio, channeling a transatlantic accent, but also switching his tone and accent throughout the film to resemble a radio changing channels. Various exemplary actors and actresses stepped up to the plate to literally breathe life into these characters such as Phil Hartman and Deanna Oliver. The animation is just one side of the story-someone had to give a voice to these characters. Putting this into practice through animation must have been some feat, and really showcases the skill of the animators working on the film, especially when considering the crushing financial and time constraints they faced in completing it. The skill needed to bring these completely lifeless objects to life cannot be understated, as it was a massive leap of the imagination.
While Toy Story has often been praised for bringing toys to life through computer animation since 1995, The Brave Little Toaster was hand-drawing objects that originally had no faces and bared little resemblance to any humans or animals in the late 80s. Animating the Inanimate The Brave Little Toaster (1987) We think its a classic that deserves this honor-so here are our top reasons why The Brave Little Toaster deserves a Blu-ray release. While many other Disney films have enjoyed a release on Blu-ray in recent years, like Saludos Amigos/ The Three Caballeros and A Goofy Movie/ An Extremely Goofy Movie, The Brave Little Toaster hasn’t gotten the upgrade. In 2003, the first and only DVD edition was released to coincide with the 15th anniversary of the film, but we have yet to see a Blu-ray edition, even after its 20th anniversary in 2007, or even its 30th anniversary in 2017. The Brave Little Toaster was also released on VHS and LaserDisc beginning in 1991 by Buena Vista Home Video, and later re-released multiple times throughout the 90s. Most viewers experienced The Brave Little Toaster through its broadcast on the Disney Channel in 1988. While the film opened at the Sundance Film Festival, it never secured an actual theater run, only later showing in a few arthouse facilities. Disch’s 1980 popular science fiction novel of the same name, The Brave Little Toaster tells the story of an animated toaster, radio, vacuum, lamp, and blanket, and their adventure to the city to find their master Rob. The Brave Little Toaster, released in 1987 as a Disney independent production and directed by Jerry Rees, sadly hasn’t gotten much love since the 90s.
