Abstract:
Toy Story is one of the most successful film series in the Disney–Pixar enterprise with the friendship between the protagonists Buzz and Woody being central to the franchise’s critical acclaim. However, despite the social phenomenon of friendship and its significance in children’s lives, a dearth of research exists on the types of friendship ideologies these films promote. This study used qualitative textual analysis to investigate the dyadic friendship narrative between Buzz and Woody across the four Toy Story films.

Abstract:
"Toy Story," Pixar's pioneering animated film, combines groundbreaking computer animation with a rich narrative that explores complex character dynamics and moral lessons. Focusing on Woody, the cowboy protagonist, the film uses his dialogues to subtly convey deeper meanings, emotions, and moral values through implicature. Woody's conversations, analyzed through Paul Grice's conversational theory, reveal a mix of dominant, manipulative, and vulnerable traits that reflect his internal conflicts and insecurities. These dialogues, which sometimes violate conversational maxims of quantity, quality

Studies on merchandise or merch as paratexts that serve as nano-narratives in adaptation context are under investigated. We argue that treating merchandise of hyped films and games as in the mentioned fashion might disclose a novel perspective in perceiving them as a narrative text.

Many uses of the gerund can be applied, especially that can be found in conversations of Walt Disney Films. The objective of the study is to reveal the common gerunds for conversations. The analysis is using a qualitative method based on the total of gerunds and the rank of words. The data consists of 2523 gerunds from several Walt Disney films such as Moana, Zootopia, Frozen, Tangled, Lion King, Toy Story, and Ice Ages. This is perhaps the most complex and arguable qu

Abstract:
Representations of boys and men in Disney films often escape notice due to presumed gender neutrality. Considering this omission, we explore masculinities in films from Disney’s lucrative subsidiary Pixar to determine how masculinities are represented and have and/or have not disrupted dominant gender norms as constructed for young boys’ viewership. Using Raewyn Connell’s theory of gender hegemony and related critiques, we suggest that while Pixar films strive to provide their male characters with a feminist spin, they also continue to reify hegemonic masculinities through sharp contrasts to f

This article explores how animation can manipulate a reflexive intertextual framework which relates to religious prohibitions on artistic mimesis that might replicate and threaten God’s creative act. Animated films are most intertextually reflexive, in these terms, when they narrativize the movement of diegetic objects from another medium which also transgresses God’s prohibition: sculpture. In the media of both sculpture and animation, the act of mimesis is transgressive in fundamentally ontological terms, staging the illusion of creation by either replicating the form of living creatures in

Abstract:
Hundreds of millions of microenterprises in emerging economies face increased competition from the entry and expansion of large firms that offer similar products. This paper studies how one of the world's most prevalent microenterprises, neighborhood shops, confront competition from convenience chains (e.g., 7-Eleven) in Mexico. To address the endogeneity in time and location of chain store openings, I pair two-way fixed effects with a novel instrument that, at the neighborhood level, shifts the profitability of chains but not of shops. An expansion from zero to the average number of chain sto

Abstract:
This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the design and implementation of a wave model evaluation system, altWIZ, which uses wave height observations from operational satellite radar altimeters. The altWIZ system utilizes two recently released altimeter databases: Ribal and Young (2019) and European Space Agency Sea State Climate Change Initiative v.1.1 level 2 (Dodet et al. 2020). The system facilitates model evaluation against 1 Hz1 altimeter data or a product created by averaging altimeter data in space and time around model grid points. The system allows, fo
