I would think a Lightyear movie would look something like Star Trek or Flash Gordon.

Not like a cartoon trying to emulate Christopher Nolan. Its just weird.

Seems underwhelming to me. If only they put the Buzz Lightyear spin off show on Disney+

YOU ARE A TOY!
Seriously Buzz Lightyear of Star Command made sense it was like a in universe cartoon that Andy would watch, this thing however just makes no sense unless there is going to be a twist in it about making darker reboots of kids shows? but I doubt that.
 
Pixar and Disney have both lost their sense of stylization, opting for either same-face syndrome or hyper realism that makes everything blander. Both Raya and Soul suffer from this shit.

This looks lame af.
 
Also everything is fucking brown and grey. Buzz Lightyear is a colorful character, meant to sell toys to children, and yet they still saturated the purple, and everything is ugly. Holy shit, why are movies (animated and live-action) afraid to be colorful anymore?

And one thing I've noticed is there's been a loss of identity with what's Disney and what's Pixar, both of their movies are pretty much interchangeable now.

I can't even put it into words how much it disappoints me that even Pixar has gone to shit, at a time when pop culture had already gotten pretty bad, Pixar stood out as at least one thing that was still as good as anything in the past was, now there isn't really a strong "Pixar" identity anymore and the quality has dropped, I was pretty disappointed by Toy Story 4.

Just why, why does everything have to be ruined?

I noticed a quality drop after 2010. It was just a slowburn as they went through the backlog they already had in the works, especially with how often they leaned on sequels this past decade.
 
I guess something like this will soon become a reality

I still can't believe they kicked him out over what amounts to nothing much of a big deal imo, the guy arguably saved Disney's animation division and that was how they repayed him.

The whole thing reeked of a political takeover.

I noticed that too, so their golden age only lasted 15 years, which isn't really that long.

To make matters worse it was such a steep drop off right after what was arguably their peak creative period, from Wall E to Toy Story 3, what's up with that?

Things still went from bad to worse once Lasseter was gone though, Toy Story 4 was in some ways as big of a slap in the face to Toy Story as The Last Jedi was to Star Wars, I'm surprised it didn't cause a bigger outrage.

Brave was in the works during the peak creative period, it was just that Brenda Chapman leaving the project midway (in 2010) caused the snarls that would be present within the film. It wasn't automatic, I would say, Monsters University I think is okay just because I like Mike and Sully's relationship and it had a really nice twist lesson at the end, and Inside Out was pretty good for being an abstract take on emotions, but it was a notable rocky moment that finally dipped with Finding Dory. (The Good Dinosaur was another story that was conceived in 2009, it just took ages to get off the ground, though by then, it had changed hands. Bob Peterson was the original creator, but I don't know how much of his original vision remained.)

It's honestly just a pretty sad time. 2010 was also when Illumination entered the scene and that brought about a new standard in animated films, especially since DreamWorks was struggling to stay financially afloat after Steve Jobs died (although you could tell DreamWorks was trying to do well during the first half of the 2010s, it was a weird time).

The 2010s was a shit decade as soon as it got started in earnest in 2011, things got worse and worse, which makes the early part seem comparatively not so bad, but despite the rare bright spots it was never not an overall lame time for pop culture, politics and society.

I just wonder why things declined so steeply after 2010, we seemed to be going in a good direction in 2010, there was so much wasted potential for the 2010s it's mind boggling.
