“Toy Story 4” is just as stylized as something like “Gatto,” just in a different way — the anamorphic lenses, photographic aberrations, bokeh, split diopters, etc are just as art directed and painstakingly crafted as the more painterly approaches they’ve been taking recently. ✨
Rewatching TOY STORY 4, and I genuinely think it might be the best-looking film Pixar’s ever made.
While the industry is (rightfully) moving toward something more stylized, this was the height of Pixar’s realistic style.
