Everybody Loves Raymond star Patricia Heaton had heated words for Disney over the studio’s choice to recast Buzz Lightyear in Pixar’s new titular flick with Marvel star Chris Evans.
“Saw the trailer for Buzz Lightyear and all I can say is Disney/Pixar made a HUGE mistake in not casting my pal Tim Allen in the role that he originated, the role that he owns,” the actress shared on Tuesday. “Tim IS Buzz! Why would they completely castrate this iconic, beloved character?”
She doubled down with her comments after fans pointed out that the Toy Story spin-off is the origin story of an action hero that the toy astronaut is based on, not the action figure that Allen brought to the big screen.
“Ok so the current Buzz Lightyear movie is an origin story – but the reason the character became so beloved is because of what Tim Allen created,” Heaton tweeted the next day. “Why remove the one element that makes us want to see it?” She also tacked on the hashtag “#stupidhollywooddecisions.”

“The Middle” star found out she went viral for the remarks on Thursday, and was less than thrilled by social media’s response.
“Waking up in London to find my tweet about #BuzzLightyear generated more of a kerfuffle than my tweet about the box of aborted full term babies found in DC,” she snarked. “Let us all ponder the state of our humanity.”
Lightyear star Chris Evans addressed the other reason the film went viral this week, the same-sex kiss between two female characters that spurned the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia to ban it.
“The real truth is those people are idiots,” Evans told Reuters. “Every time there’s been social advancement as we wake up, the American story, the human story is one of constant social awakening and growth and that’s what makes us good.”
“There’s always going to be people who are afraid and unaware and trying to hold on to what was before, but those people die off like dinosaurs,” he continued. “I think the goal is to pay them no mind, march forward and embrace the growth that makes us human.”
If evans gets it , that is it because of him . I will not watch it and and start a boycott to not show ion My State because he is socialist , communist and an a-hole
Amen
You are so right
Unlike the WILLFULLY IGNORANT LIBERALS RUINING Disney Tim Allen is not Woke. That is why they used another Woke actor instead of the Right Actor for the part.
Patricia Can’t fix stupid
Same sex kissesis not what makes us human, neither is being woke! What makes us human and great is our moral convictions and humanity! What Chris Evans is talking about is human decline and inhumanity toward the m9st innocent, the children! Grooming them to become sex slaves by teaching them sexual behavior in cartoons is deplorable!
So well stated! Disney….leave children alone!!!!
Chris Evans needs to be stripped of his Captain America Icon! He is a commie!
Boycott the ENTIRE Disney empire! The only language they understand is spoken by money. However, the lack of it speaks even louder.
We have they are done as far as we go along with the pervert promoting McDonald’s
DISNEY AND THE WOKE CROWD THAT ARE PUSHING LBGTQ CRAP IS TOTALLY OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE MAIN STREAM. THE “NEW” DISNEY WOULD MAKE MINI MOUSE A LESBIAN AND DONAL DUCK A FAG TO PLEASE THE FREAK, FRUITS AND NUTS IN OUR NATION CAPITON NOW BEING ELEVATED TO HIG POSITIONS IN THE BUFFOONS REGIME.
Screw Disney!
Why AAN?
Disney Corp is the collective idiot. If Allen is out, it’s because he isn’t woke enough to voice the character at this point. Maybe Disney DID ask him- hopefully he told DisneyCo where to put it!
WALT DISNEY IS ROLLING IN HIS GRAVE OVER THESE SICK SCUM OF THE EARTH SHITBAGS RUNNING DISNEY. GO WOKE GO BROKE. I WOULD NOT TAKE MY KIDS TO THAT SICK WOKEASS PLACE. LETS GO BRANDON
Everyone feels the same way, that’s why hardly anyone went to see it, well and the gay toy kiss.
No. Disney eviscerates Disney. Self inflicted.
Two women kissing is not social awakening and growth no matter how you try to spin it. Stop specializing our children!
