The Brave Little Toaster is an Animated Musical from 1987, based on a children's novella of the same name (with the subtitle A Fairy-Tale for Appliances) by Thomas M. Disch. It was directed by Jerry Rees, co-written by eventual Pixar storyman Joe Ranft and produced by Hyperion Pictures and Wang Film Productions (who also handled the animation), with Disney handling distribution. The film was scored by David Newman (cousin of Randy Newman), while the songs were written by Van Dyke Parks.The film centers on five household appliances — the eponymous Toaster, Lampy (a desk lamp), Kirby (a vacuum named for a vacuum company), Radio (a radio), and Blanky (an electric blanket) — who live in an old cabin out in the woods. The appliances have been left behind by their Master, a young boy, and have been waiting for him to return for years. When the cabin is put up for sale, the appliances determine to go find the Master (who, unknown to them, is now a young man getting ready for college) by making a journey to the city.It was followed by two Direct to Video sequels, The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars in 1998 and the interquel The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue in 1999, respectively. A CGI remake was proposed in 2006, but never came to be.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: The air conditioner (a Jack Nicholson sound-alike) and the hanging lamp (a Peter Lorre sound-alike). Of course, what did you expect, what with impressionist extraordinaire Phil Hartman doing their voices? The can opener/lamp/shaver is an obvious Joan Rivers sound-alike, so it's only appropriate that it makes a self-deprecating quip. The reel-to-reel player is also an obvious Mae West caricature.

comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: During the Air Conditioner's meltdown, the main characters go from annoyed to completely frightened, and when Toaster pleads, "No, we didn't mean it!", he almost sounds like someone trying to prevent a person from committing suicide. Kirby having to empty his bag is treated like someone having to shit in the woods. The Toaster even bonks Blanky on the head for spying.

Four-Philosophy Ensemble: Toaster (the Optimist), a Determinator and The Heart who gives them something to hope for. Kirby (the Cynic), a Deadpan Snarker who always finds something to criticize or complain about. Lampy (the Realist), can be critical or positive, takes his time before passing judgement. Radio (the Apathetic), an easily distracted Cloudcuckoolander. Blanky (the Conflicted), a cowardly crybaby who just wants to be loved.

Villain Song: While they aren't exactly villains, the insane machines in "Like A Movie" (aka "It's a B-Movie") do a wonderful job of showing the horror of waiting to be taken apart for spares. And they aren't bad shadow puppeteers either. A more directly evil example is "Cutting Edge", where the new appliances sing an egotistic preview of their superiority to the main characters.

Stealth Pun: A plot-relevant one, at that. At the start of the film, the characters are miserable after being stuck in a cabin in the middle of nowhere for years just waiting for their master to return. They've got cabin fever! Towards the beginning, Toaster finally decides he's had enough and pulls out a cardboard box to stand on while declaring his plan on seeking out to find the master. A box of what, you ask? Soap. He's literally using a soap box as a soapbox. During his Rousing Speech, the Toaster is lit by a beam of sunlight, which looks like a spotlight. As each of the other appliances agree to join in the journey to find The Master, they get closer to him, effectively "coming into the light". As mentioned under Meaningful Name, Mr. St. Peters is named after that St. Peter, but the appliances don't seem to think he's a bad person, they just don't want their parts used when they're still functional. In other words, it's "not their time to meet St. Peters." In "It's A B-Movie," the line "It ain't home on the range!" is sung by a stove, or range.

Adaptational Villainy: In the book, the new appliances that Toaster and the others meet in Rob's apartment aren't nearly as mean as they are in the movie. They are actually quite helpful, aiding the old appliances in finding a new owner, and even a little guilty about their part in the replacement of the old appliances.

Black Comedy: The entire scene in St. Peters' parts shop.

In-Universe, this is how the broken appliances in the shop cope, leading to the "It's A B-Movie" song.

Anachronism Stew: The references in Radio's old-timey broadcast schtick are all over the map chronologically, but he has been around for quite a while. However, he keeps making references to Teddy Roosevelt as if he was still president. It's unlikely the man was even still alive when Radio was made. This might be intentional to fit his humorous personality.

Disappeared Dad: Only Rob's mom is heard in the film and there's really no strong evidence suggesting or disproving that his dad is still living with him and his mom or is even alive. Blankie's dream sequence and the Air Conditioner's speech seems to suggest that his dad was around when he was a kid visiting the cottage. Some fans also speculate that the unseen man hammering the "for sale" sign in front of the cottage was Rob's dad and he was simply at work when Rob left for college.

Breaking Speech: "Cutting Edge" is this in song form, where the new appliances brag about how much better they are and by extension, more useful to the Master while the protagonists are old and no longer capable of serving his needs. It's enough to make them not bother fighting back when they are all booted into a dumpster and resign themselves to their fate in the junkyard.

Zeerust: Played straight with the appliances in the apartment where Rob lives. Though some of them are functionally timeless, their The '80s designs have a more zeerust feel by modern standards. They are currently in the uncanny valley of design, essentially. It doesn't help their case that they chant about being cutting-edge — in song, no less!

Character Development
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_3b113b7
comment
Character Development: Toaster: At first, he too isn't above putting Blanky down about what a wimpy crybaby he can be, but after the flower scene Toaster starts sticking up for Blanky, and takes on an almost parental role towards him. Lampy even finds this odd at first, but Toaster explains he just felt like he needed to be nicer to Blanky, and it made himself feel better. At first, Kirby is quite the grouch, who is annoyed by the mere coexistence of the others — even going so far as to say they're a bunch of dead weight he'd be better off without. He maintains this attitude for the most part until the very end when he finally lightens up. The appliances' overall relationship receives development as well. Originally, they weren't exactly on a very friendly basis with one another, and were rather prone to bickering and name-calling, sans Blanky and, to a lesser extent, Toaster. Throughout their journey, however, they grow much closer to one another, and their newfound camaraderie carries over to the sequels.

Don't Ask, Just Run
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_3e34c4dc
comment
Don't Ask, Just Run: During Toaster's nightmare, the Monster Clown only says one word: "Run." In the junkyard, the appliances try to position themselves close to Rob so he can find them. While they were in their inanimate state, the magnet sneaks towards them. Kirby hears the hum and opens one eye, seeing the magnet he shouts "Run!" and the gang scatters.

The Song Remains the Same
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_4733c4f1
comment
The Song Remains the Same: In the French, Italian, and Mandarin Chinese (both Mainland and Taiwanese) dubs, all the songs are left in English. (In fact, right before "City of Light", the French dub literally has the characters saying, "Let's sing in English!") The Serbian dub also uses this trope, with the exception of a horribly dubbed (and mostly instrumental) version of "Worthless". In the 2nd Russian dub, "City of Light" is the only song left entirely in English, while the rest of the songs vary between a mix of dubbing a few lines, using a Voiceover Translation, and leaving some parts in English.

Go Mad from the Isolation
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_4f3c14ca
comment
The air conditioner before the Master repairs him seems to be stuck in this state. The movie explains that for appliances, nothing is better than working and playing with their owners — but as the Master was a small child when the air conditioner was functional, the poor A/C unit had to sit completely motionless and watch as other appliances became friends with the boy. Is it any wonder he became a little unhinged?

Nature Is Not Nice: For most of the film, the protagonists are frequently endangered by the natural elements, such as getting caught in a thunderstorm, falling down a waterfall, or sinking in a mire. Played with though, because early on, they have a run-in with some generally friendly animals that don't pose any real danger to them, but are nevertheless annoying with their lack of respect for personal space.

Dark Is Not Evil: The appliances in Elmo St. Peter's parts shop may be broken, tinkered with, and twisted by the events they have seen, but they are by no means evil. You COULD say that they're resigned to their fate in a fairly unhealthy, EXTREMELY macabre way, using Black Comedy as a coping mechanism.

White-and-Grey Morality: Elmo St. Peters is really not evil or anything, it just happens to be his job to take apart appliances and sells the parts. It's not his fault he doesn't know they're alive. That said, he's not very ethical as a businessman — he lies to customers and rips them off, telling them that he receives shipments of new appliance parts when he's really just taking used parts out of abandoned appliances he finds in the wilderness. He also takes parts from his own working appliances, like the unfortunate blender.

Coincidental Broadcast: Subverted, mostly in the way the TV tries to get Rob and Chris's attention to direct them to the appliances' whereabouts by inventing commercials and breaking news reports while on in the background. Radio subverts this a lot as well, where he will often say he's "picking up" broadcasts that just happen to be about exactly what's going on with them at that very moment. It's usually something he wants to snark about, but sometimes he does it to be encouraging.

Forced to Watch: The most logical reason for why the lamp, the only appliance in the junk shop not clearly abused/reassembled, is as insane as the rest. He got to help with most or all of the other ones. And he's a light, so he had a good view... A quite probable explanation for the cynicism of the cars in the song "Worthless." Since most of them are in no condition to start, let alone move, all they can do is sit where they are as they are crushed one by one.

The edited version of the Polish dub cuts out the Air Conditioner's freakout scene, so there's a cleverly-done transition where Toaster tells him, "Well, you can do what you like. We're not gonna give up hope," and then it cuts to them all despondent on the couch after they've just seen the "For Sale" sign, almost like a network created Gilligan Cut.

Dub-Induced Plot Hole
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_6a85e9e1
comment
Dub-Induced Plot Hole: When the movie was shown on Polish television, some scenes that were kept in the original release were removed. One of them was the forest scene, which was one of the most crucial ones. It was most likely cut for the possibility of scaring younger audiences; in the TV release, it just cuts to the waterfall scene without explaining at all why Lampy's bulb is broken. Other scenes edited out from the TV version include the Air Conditioner's exploding rage and the appliances catching the "On Sale" sign. For some reason, they also omitted the scene where Lampy tries to think of ways they could try and get out of the house to find the Master. All of these scenes remain intact on the Polish DVD release.

Through a Face Full of Fur: The Air Conditioner becomes hot-tempered literally and figuratively, as he irately turns red after the other appliances offend him with mentioning that he's incapable of mobility unlike the others, and he becomes so heated he breaks down.

Soulful Plant Story
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_6c468c4f
comment
Soulful Plant Story: Downplayed. The whole story isn't like this, but there's definitely an emotional scene about a plant. A hedge surrounds a tree and only a single beam of light is let through, in which a flower grows. There are plenty of other flowers surrounding the hedge, but the flower can't see them. Then, Toaster arrives, and the flower mistakes the reflection on his surface for another flower. The real one is shocked and curious and wants to know where the "other flower" came from. Toaster tries to explain that he's not a flower and it's just the real one's reflection, but the real one doesn't listen and wants to make friends with the "other one". When Toaster pulls away in surprise, the flower is wilting.

The last vehicle to be crushed in the song "Worthless." He worked his tires off on a reservation his entire life, and then was abandoned and called worthless by his owner. It affects him so much that when the crane comes for him, he instead drives right onto the conveyor belt.

Disney Death: The Toaster jumps on the gears of the compactor to save Rob. Not long after, Rob repairs him good as new. Lampy seems to die after using himself as a lighting rod to recharge the battery. On the very next scene, he's alive, but singed and with a broken bulb. The Air Conditioner appears to die after overcharging himself. Until Rob fixes him later.

Covers Always Lie
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_7315fd38
comment
Covers Always Lie: Do. They. Ever. If you think the one above is bad, the original UK VHS cover◊ shows the main five characters and the younger master skipping down a country road surrounded by twinkling stars. About the only thing it does better than the American cover is actually showing pictures from the movie (the ones on the American cover◊ were pretty blatant mock-ups. One of them featured the Toaster high-fiving the master, despite the fact that it's supposed to be a secret that they're living in-universe). The British theatrical poster◊ illustrates the tone of the movie better. Played straight, however, with the international VHS artwork◊ used for the UK and Germany. Plus, the 2001 British VHS re-issue (as well as the 2003 "remastered" DVD) list two minor songs on their covers: "Tutti Frutti" and "April Showers", with Radio only singing a FEW short lines of the latter song at the beginning.

Right for the Wrong Reasons: When the cottage appliances realize the house is being sold and they are deciding whether or not to leave and find The Master, Kirby says they should just stay behind because "They'll have a new master anyways". Turns out he was right about staying behind but not because of the new master, as their original owner was on his way to pick them up to take to college with him.

Not So Above It All: In the opening "whistle while you work" montage where the appliances clean the cabin to Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti", Kirby, who'd been haranguing the others about working, finds a quiet spot to dance where no one can see him. Lampy comes upon him, and starts dancing with him. Kirby doesn't notice at first, but when he does, he's shocked and embarrassed to be caught in the act and saunters off. To Lampy's credit, he doesn't care. He keeps dancing and enjoys the fact that Kirby let his "hair" down too.

Family-Unfriendly Death: The air conditioner getting worked up to the point of aneurysm, and dying... on camera. Toaster jumps into the gears of the crusher to save Rob. They fully show him being crushed and horribly bent out of shape as the gears grind him up. We also get to see a blender, shown as sentient and fearing for its life, before the parts shop owner literally rips it apart, yanking off its cord and cutting out the motor (the electronic equivalent of a human heart). The cars in the junkyard getting put in a compactor. As their days of usefulness are long over, they sadly resign themselves to their fate. And in a particularly horrific scene, Rob just misses being added to this list.

She's a Man in Japan
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_a0955420
comment
She's a Man in Japan: Because of the existence of masculine and feminine nouns in many languages, some of the character had their genders change to fit with that language's grammar. The German, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese (2nd version), Croatian, Russian TV and Czech VHS dubs made Lampy into a female (making his female counterparts varying degrees of Tomboy with a Girly Streak). Blanky also counts, because 'blanket' is female in some countries. Also in the Polish, German, Russian, and Latin Spanish dubs, the 'Mish-Mash' (a Joan Rivers parody) is male. In the Hungarian and 2nd Brazilian Portuguese dubs, the hearse in the "Worthless" segment is female. Also, the Tan Car is female in the Latin Spanish, Russian, and Hungarian dubs, while in the Danish, Icelandic, and first two Brazilian Portuguese dubs, the Wood-Sided Wagon is male. In Poland, Plugsy is female (at least, voiced by Wanda Wieszczycka).

comment
You Don't Look Like You: The designs of the appliances in the films are quite different from their book counterparts. For example, the toaster only has one lever which acts as its nose. Here, he has two which act as his hands, also going with the position change of his face. Another being the blanket, whose face takes up its entire body in the book but is just limited to being on the dial in the film.

Happiness in Slavery
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_a58802b7
comment
Happiness in Slavery: "Slavery" is definitely an exaggeration in this case, though being the kind of movie that it is, it does require more than a little bit of Willing Suspension of Disbelief. The film operates on the internal logic that appliances are happiest when they're being used for their intended purpose and their love for the master stems from how well he took care of them when he was a child. Their greatest fears all involve either being misused, being disposed of/having their working parts used when they're still perfectly functional or not being used at all.

Meaningless Villain Victory: The Cutting-Edge Appliances are resentful that Rob wants to take his "outdated" appliances from the cabin to college instead of themselves, and are quick to toss the gang into the gutter when they show up on the Master's doorstep. Thinking they've won him over, Rob still refuses his mother's offer to take them along even after finding his beloved appliances missing. From Plugsy's reaction alone, we can tell it was a serious blow to their egos.

And I Must Scream
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_a8a04f6f
comment
And I Must Scream: The broken-down cars in the junkyard who sing "Worthless" certainly qualify. While still completely sentient, they're unable to move, forced to do nothing but watch as a giant magnet picks them up one by one to be crushed to death on a conveyor belt. Some of the cars try to escape even as they're dragged to the belt, only to be trapped. The air conditioner before the Master repairs him seems to be stuck in this state. The movie explains that for appliances, nothing is better than working and playing with their owners — but as the Master was a small child when the air conditioner was functional, the poor A/C unit had to sit completely motionless and watch as other appliances became friends with the boy. Is it any wonder he became a little unhinged? That poor blender probably wanted to scream for help as he was being dismantled.

During his Rousing Speech, the Toaster is lit by a beam of sunlight, which looks like a spotlight. As each of the other appliances agree to join in the journey to find The Master, they get closer to him, effectively "coming into the light".

Dramatic Irony: The gang could've spared themselves quite a bit of Hell if they had stayed put at the cottage just a few more days, as Rob goes back to retrieve them just as they arrived at his apartment in the city. TV very nearly reveals this to them before he's rudely interrupted by the jealous cutting edge appliances.

Super-Persistent Predator: The giant magnet at Ernie's Disposal, who absolutely refused to let any of its victims escape their fate of being crushed, as shown when it obsessively hunted down the appliances throughout the junkyard to put them back on the Conveyor Belt of Doom every time they jumped off. It got to the point that it even tried to kill Rob when he found and began gathering up the appliances.

Digital Destruction: The DVD version of the film was taken from a worn-out print used for festival screenings rather than the original negative, resulting in a wobbly picture and lots of film grain during the opening credits sequence. Curiously, though, the PAL version of the movie has a clearer image to it, without the wiggle.

No OSHA Compliance: The junkyard. While it can be slightly forgiven since Rob stubbornly held onto the magnet which almost no human would ever do before it dropped him onto the conveyer belt, the fact that there were no safety measures in place nor anyone keeping on an eye on the belt to make sure something like crushing a human to death didn't occur raises some valid concerns. In fact, there doesn't even seem to be any workers at the place at all!

Take That!
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_b53077b3
comment
Take That!: "The Cutting Edge" scene is an absolutely scathing satire on the then-current glorification of money and mass consumption in 1980s: the appliances overbearingly boast about their many, many state-of-the-art features and how they represent "an ultra-nylon life of ease" (in other words, "a synthetic world of instant gratification"). They also scoff at our heroes (all presumably made between the '40s and '60s) being "old stuff," which tells us that they know this. The best part? The timeless quality of the heroes ensure they'll remain useful, but thanks to Technology Marches On, many of those appliances like the computer will be obsolete and headed for the trash (save Plugsy, who is an old-fashioned lamp, but not terribly useful for studying under like Lampy is.)

Gave Up Too Soon: Or rather, jumped to the Call to Adventure too soon, as after seeing a "For Sale" sign being placed outside the cottage and becoming convinced the Master wasn't coming back for them, the appliances decided to set out and find him. If they had just waited a couple more days, they would've seen him come through the door like they always hoped.

Very False Advertising: Exploited by the TV. Realizing the appliances are at Ernie's Disposal, he tries to get Rob to go there through his over-the-top advertising. When he continuously fails to get his attention, he resorts to more and more desperate forms of this, all the way to calling it "Crazy Ernie's Amazing Emporium of Total Bargain Madness". Lampshaded by Rob when he actually does reach the dump.

Plucky Comic Relief: Radio, at least in the first film as his moments are rarely Played for Drama. However, while his role mostly consists of providing funny lines, he does contribute significantly to the story as the group's navigator since he can tune into radio signals from the city, using that to point the group in the right direction. The group would have no idea which way to go and likely would have gotten lost without him.

The '80s: The cutting edge appliances are, indeed, state of the art... by 1987 standards. Their Villain Song even comes complete with characteristically '80s synthesizers and Simmons electronic drums. The mid-20th century is also depicted as having been recent, with the appliances being late 50s/early 60s models and Radio both starting the day with a Little Richard song and making passing remarks about Teddy Roosevelt.

Irony / Ironic Echo: Elmo St. Peters, after the radio hides, says "What did it do? Just get up and walk away?" After the appliances' journey, it is revealed that Rob/The Master actually was coming back for them. Kirby suggested that they just stay in the cottage. Only that someone will buy the cottage and have a new master. It is ironic that Lampy, who is physically bright, is not that bright mentally. And yet it is he who figures out a way to save Radio's life. He also knew how to charge the dead battery by using himself as a lightning rod during a thunderstorm. The appliances that sing "Cutting Edge" flaunt all the amazing things they're able to do to the heroes. In actuality, most of them are terribly dated 80s models (especially when compared to now current appliances), and likely to be replaced when the inevitable improved/better-looking versions come out in the future. The most blatant are the Computer, the Entertainment Complex, and the telephone. In comparison, the heroes are all reliable and sturdy with fairly timeless designs.

Shout-Out
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The opening shot of the film, where the camera slowly trucks in on the cabin, followed by repeated match cuts of a sunbeam which leads up to the Master's bedroom, is an homage to the opening shot of Citizen Kane. Radio suggests going North By Northwest while trying to find the city. Another one as they go through the forest. The Master's apartment number is A113, which by now is a well-known Stock Shout-Out to the character animation classroom at the California Institute of The Arts (thanks mainly to appearing in every Pixar movie ever), but there's an extra reference: The building's address, 4470 McBean Parkway, is the school's actual address. When Toaster goes through the phone book to find the Master's address, the names he goes through reference other Disney films. (Ex: Pan Peter, White Snow, Bambi Deer, Puppet Wooden, Flying Elephant, etc.) Other names include various place names like York New, River Mississippi, Angeles Los, and names of the appliances: Toaster Brave, Lamp Bright, Yellow Blankey, Vacuum Gruff, Radio Loud, and Master Young. The "Crazy Ernie's" bit by Old Rabbit Ears is a rather obscure reference (though not to New Yorkers of a certain age) to Crazy Eddie's television ads.

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Can be observed with Lampy. Near the beginning of the film, he explains his ideas of how they can travel before they're implemented, with hilarious (but failed) results. When they're trying to come up with a plan to save Radio from having his tube taken out, he simply says he has a plan — which then works. Earlier, due to the group being distracted, Lampy didn't tell anyone he was going to use himself as a lightning rod. He just did it. And it worked.

Ascended Fridge Horror
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_cc8b2fd
comment
Ascended Fridge Horror: The idea of anthropomorphic electronics sharing a world with humans is Deconstructed with themes of materialism and abandonment. During the "Worthless" scene, set in a junkyard, there's a huge magnet seeking out the toaster and crew, to throw them all into a compactor — essentially attempting to murder them as they run away from it and hide in fear for their lives. Meanwhile, it actually is throwing cars into the compactor. The cars are singing a song about how helpless and worthless they feel. Some attempt to escape the magnet, which is pretty horrifying in itself, but even more disturbing is others conveying that they want to die and fully understand the concept of death, even though they are objects.

Red Filter of Doom: Happens briefly when the Air Conditioner breaks down, and extensively near the end of the film when the Master is in peril at the junkyard. In the PAL version, this is downplayed, and only the sky turns red.

You're Just Jealous
 The Brave Little Toaster / int_e1bd7a4e
comment
You're Just Jealous: The Air Conditioner ridicules Toaster and the others for their optimism that their Master/Rob will come back one day. Toaster thinks it's just a defense mechanism to hide the fact that he's jealous of them because the Master never gave him as much love as them. At first, he denies it, but when Kirby points out he's stuck in a wall, his repressed rage kills him. (He's repaired later in the movie, though.) His real repressed rage was that The Master never played with him because he was too high on the wall.

Big Damn Heroes: A few moments throughout the film. After the other appliances go over the waterfall, Kirby, who moments earlier had told them he was better off without them, dives into the river to save them. When Radio is about to have his tubes pried out by Elmo St. Peters, the other appliances save him by scaring Elmo. After Rob and the other appliances are trapped on the junkyard conveyor belt and are about to be crushed Toaster lives up to the title name by throwing himself into the crusher's gears, disabling it and saving everyone.

When another car arrives to put the cottage up for sale, what follows is Blanky breaking into another wailing fit, Radio humming "Taps" and Lampy letting loose a Howl of Sorrow — only for Toaster to snap "STOP IT!" and announce spontaneous plans to go on a quest to find the Master. Cue a collective Big "WHAT?!" from the other appliances.

Dying Alone: There is one scene when the poor little flower realizes that it was loving its own reflection on Toaster after he runs away (or at least is upset that the "other" flower is gone), and as he peeks into the bushes, she notices that the flower is losing its petals as it dies emotionally alone. The last vehicle to be crushed in the song "Worthless." He worked his tires off on a reservation his entire life, and then was abandoned and called worthless by his owner. It affects him so much that when the crane comes for him, he instead drives right onto the conveyor belt.
