Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins

Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins is a 2000 Disney animated direct-to-video film that acts as a pilot to the television series Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. In the fictional universe of the Pixar film series Toy Story, this is the movie that inspired the existence of the Buzz Lightyear toyline.

Tim Allen reprises his role as the voice of Buzz Lightyear, as do Wallace Shawn, R. Lee Ermey, Jeff Pidgeon, and Joe Ranft as Rex, Sarge, Squeeze Toy Aliens and Wheezy respectively. Woody is voiced by Jim Hanks, the younger brother of original Woody voice actor Tom Hanks, and Hamm is voiced by original Zurg voice actor Andrew Stanton from Toy Story 2 instead of John Ratzenberger.

When the movie was later edited into three episodes of the television show, the opening "Andy's Room" sequence was removed and Buzz Lightyear's dialogue was re-dubbed by Patrick Warburton.

Famous quotes containing the words buzz, star, adventure and/or begins:

    “Next to an old-fashioned church social, or possibly a monster bridge party, there is no buzz which can equal the sibilant buzz of a matinée.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “I would that we were, my beloved, white birds on the foam of the sea!
    We tire of the flame of the meteor, before it can fade and flee;
    And the flame of the blue star of twilight, hung low on the rim of the sky,
    Has awaked in our hearts, my beloved, a sadness that may not die.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “A work of art is above all an adventure of the mind.”
    —Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

    “Popular art is normally decried as vulgar by the cultivated people of its time; then it loses favor with its original audience as a new generation grows up; then it begins to merge into the softer lighting of “quaint,” and cultivated people become interested in it, and finally it begins to take on the archaic dignity of the primitive.”
    —Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
