Not that I have a problem with Disney re-writing the storyline as I've said I enjoy both the movies and the books which inspired them. The "master" of the appliances Rob McGroarty, his girlfriend/wife Chris, the veterinary school thing -all 100% Disney. Disney pretty much took Disch's concept of anthropomorphic appliances and ran with it, adding their own human characters and greatly altering the plot. Disch (which are excellent, by the way, and I highly recommend them.) A large part of the awfulness of the "Mars" movie sequel seems to result from the unfortunate collision of the Disney- and Disch-authored plots. Then I finally read the Brave Little Toaster books by Thomas M. Seriously, it was hard to imagine that people whose brains weren't chemically fried could POSSIBLY think that some of the nonsense and downright creepiness in this flick was a good idea. (And why would you want to traumatize a 3 year old with this!?) I watched this film with a 7 year old and a 9 year old, and we all agreed about how awful it is.When I first watched this very convoluted movie, it brought every "what were they smoking" cliche to mind about the screenwriters and director. I don't care how nuts you and/or your kids are about the Brave Little Toaster, if you're over 3 years old this monsterpiece will give you brain cramps. Some of the other reviewers don't sound too fond of the Brave Little Toaster movies, period, but that's not the case with me! I loved the original movie, and the other sequel (part two in the Disney-adapted storyline) "The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue," is an enjoyable extension of the Toaster series, if not quite up to the original. "It pains me to have to think about this movie again, but I thought I'd write a review to warn people away, if I could.
