令人矚目的迪士尼公司制作的年度大片《玩具總動(dòng)員4》,將于2019年6月在全球上映。劇中人物巴斯光年的配音者蒂姆·艾倫在接受采訪時(shí),透露了一些《玩具總動(dòng)員4》的非核心秘密,他評(píng)價(jià)《玩具總動(dòng)員4》“非常情緒化”。
It doesn’t matter how old you are, you probably still love Toy Story and you probably can’t wait for the notice of Toy Story 4 in June, 2019.
Although a lot of information about the film has been kept in secret so far, one of the stars has recently opened up about what it was like to make the new movie.
Appearing on American chat show The Talk, Tim Allen, who voiced Buzz Lightyear in the Pixar Animation Studios(皮克斯動(dòng)畫工作室) flick, described the experience as “emotional” and admitted he struggled to record his parts.
He said, “I don’t want to give it away because this is a really great story.”
“It is so emotional, it’s so funny, it’s so big, the idea they’ve come up with, I’m surprised with it. I couldn’t even get through the last scene. I would love to be a Washington leaker.”
The 65-year-old actor, who has also starred in films, for example, The Santa Clause, stopped himself before giving away too much information. But he did add, “They’ve got great characters but a couple of scenes toward the end were really hard to get through.”
He has ever told Entertainment Weekly that the film is on“a whole new level” and is “emotional, funny, exciting and different”.
He continued, “It walks the line between comfort—you know what’s going on—and discomfort—wondering what’s going to happen. It’s very emotional. Somehow they were able to advance this wonderful story that could have easily ended with No. 3 being the best of the bunch.”

在美國(guó)聊天節(jié)目《The Talk》中,蒂姆·艾倫,皮克斯動(dòng)畫工作室電影中巴斯光年的配音者,將這種體驗(yàn)描述為“情緒化”,并承認(rèn)他努力記錄他(配音)的部分。
他說:“我不想放棄,因?yàn)樗娴氖且粋€(gè)非常棒的故事。”
“它是如此情緒化,它是如此有趣,它是如此受歡迎,他們提出的想法讓我嚇了一跳,我甚至無法完成最后一幕。我很想成為一名華盛頓的泄密者。”
這位65歲的演員,也曾出演過《圣誕老人》等電影,在透露太多信息之前,他停了下來。但他確實(shí)又補(bǔ)充說:“他們有很棒的角色,但最后有幾個(gè)場(chǎng)景很難完成?!?/p>
