Toy Story
     Toy Story was released by Disney and Pixar in November of 1995.  It was a huge accomplishment, and was one long awaited by children and adults alike.  Disney and Pixar Animation had successfully made the first full-length film entirely animated on computers.  The writers of Toy Story did not focus solely on the technical aspect, though.  They also remembered to include the plot.  Often, a film is acclaimed for just one aspect, but Toy Story deserves praise for many: the music, the famous voices, and even the comedy.

He keeps all the other toys in line and calm every time Andy's birthday or Christmas happens to roll around.  That is, until Andy receives for his birthday a brand new Buzz Lightyear action figure, complete with a laser beam and fold out wings.  Once Buzz comes into the picture, and starts to lay out his plans to save the universe, Woody's lectures
on "plastic corrosion awareness" no longer seem so important.  Jealousy works its way into the scene, and Woody ends up accidentally knocking Buzz out Andy's window.  Unfortunately, Andy is moving, and Woody only has a limited amount of time to find ...
