Chris Evans, who is known for his role as Captain America, didn’t hide his excitement for being given such an opportunity. “The phrase ‘a dream come true’ gets thrown around a lot, but I’ve never meant it more in my life,” shared the actor. On his Twitter account, he also revealed that “Animated movies were an enormous part of my childhood. They were my escape. My adventures. My dreams,” and thanked Pixar and Angus MacLane, who is an American film director, for choosing him to be a part of this project. Before Evans, the character of Buzz Lightyear was voiced by actor and comedian Tim Allen.

What is important to take into consideration about this movie was revealed by Evans in his tweet written almost a year ago: “And just to be clear, this isn’t Buzz Lightyear the toy. This is the origin story of the human Buzz Lightyear that the toy is based on.” The real person who inspired Buzz Lightyear was American astronaut Buzz Aldrin, who, together with astronaut Neil Armstrong, were the first ones to land on the moon in 1969.

Dear fans of old things. New material for a new generation of children is not "ruining your childhood" Those things don't not solely belong to your generation. If you don't like it or don't want to see it, no one is forcing you to see it. Now please shut up and let those excited for something enjoy it.

I agree to some extent but I have to insist that you will never complain about something you like being updated for a younger generation in 30 years. No matter what you think of the quality of the result. Sometimes these feelings about things we liked in our childhood aren’t really that rational.
