Doug (vo): Okay, so I'm going a little out of order on this one, but at the same time, I couldn't get Into the Woods in time to do a Disneycember for it, and...yeah, I'll just do it by popular demand in January. But until then, let's do what I actually have got a lot of requests to do: The Brave Little Toaster. A film a million times better than it's deserving to be. I mean, just listen to that title. The Brave Little Toaster. This sounds like a story for one-year-olds that should have little to no effort put into it. And even the setup, in some respects, is kind of like that, too.
Story
Doug (vo): A bunch of appliances with eyes, mouth, the whole thing, have been sitting around the house waiting for their master to return. But a long amount of time has passed, and they start to feel like he's never going to come back. Fearing he might be in trouble, they decide to leave the home and go looking for him. The rest of the film is the great big journey they take to try and find where he's gone. Our characters include a radio, played by Jon Lovitz, a vacuum, an electric blanket, a lamp, and, of course, our brave little toaster.

Final thoughts
Doug (vo): It's a good film! Okay, not phenomenal, but I don't know what kind of phenomenal things you can really do with this setup. Hell, I'm amazed they even made it to "okay" standarts. This is a fun little adventure to take your kids on. It has enough colorful songs and characters to keep them interested, and enough scary moments to get them going, "Ooh! What's gonna happen next?" It's not spectacular, but there's just something to the atmosphere I really like about it. Every action they make, you feel the consequences of. And you're totally rooting for them every step on the way. Who the hell would have thought toasters would live such interesting lives?
