I was wondering how old you thought the main characters of all the movies would be if they where human. tis is my graph:
TS- Woody and Buzz are probably 30ish. they’re not very young but not super old.
ABL- Flik is probably about 17-18. he has a sort of young teenagish air to him.
MI- late twenties. they’re probably the same age, just an age that can have different maturities.
FN- Marlin is mid to late thirties, nemo 7ish, dory early to mid twenties.
TI- Mr. and Mrs. Incredible are probably in they’re mid forties.
C- Lightning McQueen was kinda hard. hes immature at the beginning, but pretty mature near the end. he also has to be old enough for sally, and she has to be old enough to be out of law school. i was thinking around 22, maybe a bit older.
R- Remy, hmm, hes hard to. i’d say about 18, and linguini, maybe 24ish.
The different characters in each movie were of different ages. Woody was supposed to be a lot older than Buzz, from an era when cowboy movies/tv shows were popular(and an era that most here on the Pixar Planet forums cannot actually remember, personally). Buzz would have been from a time when sci-fi adventure movies were the big thing, which was a few decades after that. If they were humans, there would still be that age difference, or generational difference. While Mike and Sulley’s ages never were revealed, I can say from personal experience that they act very much 40-something, and it’s already been established that Boo was 2 and Randall was 25.
Yeah, I’ve got to agree with pitbulllady in terms of Woody and Buzz- Woody acts just much older than Buzz, and as you said, there is that generational difference.
I always imagined Flik to be slightly older…21, perhaps? Obviously not in terms of an ant, though I wonder how long ants usually live. Anyway, yeah, early twenties.
Sulley and Mike always appeared to me to act around their mid to late thirties. Sulley might be slightly older than Mike, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were pretty much the same age. There’s just something rather middle aged about them both.
Mr. and Mrs. Incredible are probably around their mid forties, as you said Rac_Rules. I wouldn’t really be able to tell if one was younger than the other, though if I had to choose, I’d say that Bob might be Helen’s senior, but by only two or three years at the most.
I’d agree that Lightning McQueen and Sally are probably around their early twenties, although Sally might be more like 25, 26 or 27, in comparison to Lightning who appears to act around the ages of 22 or 23. He may mature by the end of the film, but he still has more of a boyish charm and I can imagine Sally going for a toy boy rather than an older man.
Remy seems old to me. I don’t know why- it might be his voice- but I’ve always thought of him as being, in human years, in his early to mid twenties. He can’t be much older, because of the age of his father, but that’s how he’s always appeared to me. Linguini is probably in his early twenties.
Randall’s age is given away in the “2003 Monsters, Inc. Annual”, published by Disney Publishing. It’s stated that the “All-time Scare Record” was established in 1963 by “Fangs” McDonald, and that Randall was born 13 years later, which would mean he was born in 1976. The date on the newspaper he’s seen reading about “the kid” is November 01, 2001, which means that at the time of the events of the movie, Randall would have been around 25, depending on what month he was born in, but with only one more month left in the year, it’s a pretty good bet he’d already had a 25th birthday.
I’m making an educated and experienced guess about Mike, Sulley and Celia Mae being in their '40’s-experienced because I’ve “Been There, Done That” myself, lol! I’ve known a LOT of guys who, upon hitting the “Big Four Uh-OH”, became more obsessed with fast cars than they ever were as teens. I also know that around this age, many of us gals become very hesitant about revealing just how old we really are, as per Celia Mae’s quote: “I’ve had a lot of birthdays…well, not a LOT of birthdays, but…” I still get a laugh out of that one! Most women in their twenties have no qualms telling anyone how old they are, but ask most forty-something women, and at the least, you’ll get an evasive answer, and at the worst, get told-off.
