How the hell do you live this long without watching this masterpiece.

[@Rodney197..]

I have that same reaction to alot of stuff on this channel that he/Jen hasn’t seen before

[@shanustheanus]

My guess is the majority of the reason would be breathing in oxygen and eating and drinking regularly enough, as well as avoiding certain dangers such as being hit by a train etc. That's how I would have done it at least.

I love how, during the birthday party, they didn't want to animate a bunch of extra kids. So, every single kid is just Andy in different clothes. 😂

The moment Jen grabbed Woody is the moment you can tell Jen fell in love with this movie and the characters

[@Eisenheim1191]

"Daddy, why is my Woody out"? "Uh, you're too young for that conversation son" 😂😂😂

[@Rorujin]

Fun fact: in my country, the movie had a subtitle that translates to "The Rivals". Also the great thing about Toy Story is that its about the existential dread of being replaced and becoming obsolete... And those themes REALLY ramp up in the sequel. Jessie's story and that flipping song make me cry everytime. The thing is, for a while it was thought that not even Pixar would follow up on the implications that they set on the first two movies, even though Andy growing up and moving on was an inevitability... AND THEN THEY DO. It was frankly ballsy and shows why Pixar are (or used to be) the best animation studio out there.

[@Phantom_Fireside]

Yeah Jesse's story and song makes me ball my eyes out, always has always will

[@therealgarciagamer]

Getting to see Jen‘s reaction for the original 1995 Toy story was amazing. Especially since Toy story was Pixar‘s first 100% full CG movie if I’m not mistaken. Holden‘s reactions reminded me of how I reacted when I was a little kid after watching the movie and Jen‘s reaction was 100% my first reaction when watching the movie for the first timehope she loves the rest of the movies and I hope you guys are ready for Toy story 5

[@therandompandaman4521]

You're right, but it's more impressive than just being Pixar's first. This was the first CG animated feature film. Some 2D films had used 3D elements, and Pixar in particular had some CG shorts, but nothing like this.

[@nsasupporter7557]

@@therandompandaman4521 yes, it was just as big as Lion King when it came out the previous year in 1994.

I get more shocked everyday by the movies Jen hasn’t seen. Just reading the title of the video is mind boggling. This is the ultimate childhood movie of childhood movies

[@Octorious]

Jen hasn't watched Toy Story before!? 😮 Super excited to watch this 😊

Awesome that Jen said she loved watching Home Improvement! Did she catch the tool box that falls on Woody at Sid's house said 'Binford' on it as a reference to the show.

[@nightwingjosh8491]

There's certainly episode post this episode they reference this movie and jtt in lion king

[@MeesdeFilmliefhebber]

Awww Jen's amount of emotional investment in this was so adorable! It's comparable to animals how much she cares about these toys! And so quickly, considering how short this movie is. I loved this reaction, can't wait for the next two!

[@darylsfan9680]

Seeing Jen watch these amazing classic movies for the first time just brings me so much joy. Please don’t stop.

[@gdubya12699]

This, and toy story 2, were some of my favorite movies growing up. I was buzz lightyear for halloween like 4 years in a row. To this day, when I talk to my grandmother, she always says, "I love you to infinity and beyond," before we get off the phone. This series will always have a special place in my heart.

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

Out of the songs in this movie (before anyone says it, I know there aren't a lot of them), my favorite is "You've Got A Friend In Me" Side note: So many comedy legends/comedic actors in this movie Tom Hanks-Woody (I also love him in the movie Splash, with Daryl Hannah as his mermaid love interest) Tim Allen-Buzz Lightyear (I also love his portrayal of Santa in the Santa Clause movies) Jim Varney-Slinky Dog Don Rickles-Mr. Potato Head John Ratzenberger-Hamm Wallace Shawn-Rex Annie Potts-Bo Peep (She's also best known as Janine Melnitz in Ghostbusters and as Sheldon Cooper's grandmother in the sitcom Young Sheldon)

[@joshuacampbell7493]

Please watch the rest of the series. It's totally worth it 👌.

[@narimanbakhtiari827]

This is the first animation I watched when I was a kid, used to bring my VHS copy to kindergarten to see with my friends everday! Means so much to me.

[@jonieljoestarzawarudo8172]

16:34 actually, we do see Sid's father asleep in the scene were Buzz realizes he's a toy. That scene also subtly implies that Sid's dad is an alcoholic (which probably explains why Sid is the way he is).

[@christianwise637]

That, plus all the locks on Sid's door and Scud's reaction when he sees Sid's dad paints a pretty bleak image of what his home life is like

[@godzillamaster34]

Yall definitely need to watch up to at least the third movie. They are perfect.

[@Blackwing2040]

This is my favorite movie of all time, always been and always will be. It holds a special place in my heart and it's such a joy to see you guys watch it. Having Woody and Buzz next to you as you watch, that's definitely something I would do

[@androognoix1685]

This in my top 5 non-biopics

[@C_E_0]

Doing a semi rewatch years and years later (37 now), I appreciate the sad and heartwarming moments so much more, to the point I can almost tear up

[@woo545]

John Lasseter (director) used to work for Disney before Pixar. He tried convincing the old guard at Disney Animation that computer animation was the way to go. The previous head basically, said something along the lines, that if it doesn't save money, then it's not worth it. But they gave Lasseter the chance to show its potential in "The Brave Little Toaster" which contained a combination of computer-generated graphics and traditional Disney hand-drawn animation. He was let go after this was completed. Didn't Toy Story have bloopers in the credits? Also, a couple jokes that might have been missed: The Binford Toolbox was a reference to Tim "The Toolman" Taylor's sponsor in Home Improvement. The legs toy combined with the hook is a reference that adults would get.

[@vetarlittorf1807]

But now the time of pure 3D animation is over. Now people want 2D/3D hybrid animation. Which means Pixar's age is over.

[@tannerp.4996]

Toy Story 2 is the one that has bloopers in the credits

[@jkhoover]

YES!!!!! This is my favorite cartoon movie of all time! The OG Pixar movie. I truly hope Jen loves it and wants to watch the sequels. They are ALL amazing!!!!

[@SJHFoto]

Hey Holden! Like I said before, I was already an adult when this movie came out, but I REALLY liked it as did all my friends. My 90 year old mother loves all 4 movies in the series

[@jediknightryan]

It's really great seeing someone experience this classic for the first time. This was one of the first movies I ever saw, it came out a little under a month after I was born, I think Toy Story 2 was the first movie I saw in a theater. So, these hold a special place in my memory.

For me is a 10 and beyond!!! It’s that good that made my brother (9 at that time) decide to be an animator! Tim Allen and Tom Hanks are terrific together, they deliver every line with his own magic and make Woody and Buzz so alive! And the rest of the cast, what a beauty, Rex, Ham, Mr Potato and so on! Action, adventure, thriller, drama, comedy, everything in one film!

[@michaelconnor1542]

This has one of the greatest cast of any movie ever. To the point they have both Don Rickles and R. Lee Ermy.

I was fortunate enough to go on holiday to Disney World when I was young around the time this movie came out. We stayed in Dixie Landings resort (since renamed), one day we had been out all day at one of the parks and came home to "catch" all the toys spread around the room up to no good. The house keepers spent the time and effort to add just that extra touch of magic. Great memory.

I never realized this was the first animated film nominated for Best Screenplay. I thought BEAUTY AND THE BEAST was, but I just realized that was Best Picture.

In order to render "Toy Story," the animators had 117 computers running 24 hours a day. Each individual frame could take from 45 minutes to 30 hours to render, depending on how complex. There were a total of 114,240 frames to render. The final product took 4 years total to make.

[@glennwelsh9784]

Seeing how it's Christmastime, it's worth mentioning that there was a 1986 Christmas special made by Jim Henson called The Christmas Toy, about toys coming to life when their owners aren't around, and how they fret being replaced by the newest toy. The plot is so remarkably similar to Toy Story that you wonder if the Pixar people were involved in The Christmas Toy's development, if they wholesale ripped off its story for Toy Story, or if it was possibly just a crazy coincidence. But since both are now owned by Disney, it's not like any lawsuits are ever gonna happen over it.

[@Gameflyer001]

My first ever film seen in theatres. I was 4 at the time. Fun fact, Buzz Lightyear is named after Buzz Aldrin, the second man ever to walk on the moon. Lots of good voice talents apart from Hanks and Allen. R. Lee Ermey voiced the toy soldier Sarge; classic insult comic Don Rickles voiced Mr. Potato Head; Wallace Shawn voiced Rex, John Ratzenberger voiced Hamm; Jim Varney voiced Slinky.

The gas station that Woody and Buzz get left at is a Dinoco gas station. This is the same Dinoco that is mentioned in the Cars movie, which are also Pixar films. This just lends a bit more credence to the theory that all the Pixar films are connected and take place in the same universe.

I went to school with a kid who was just like Sid: he'd cut his toys up with an old electric Erector Set motor with a big gear on it for a sawblade. He'd melt them down, break them into pieces, whatever struck his twisted fancy. I don't know what became of him; probably in prison. Or maybe practicing Law. 'Toy Story' originated a Pixar tradition: the YO truck. It has had appearances in every movie since, usually background cameos, even in movies that take place in worlds without cars.

I always loved the concept of this movie. Why are my toys never where I left them? I think we all experienced this as kids. After watching this movie I know why. So fantastic.

[@mevb]

Actually, Sid does have a dad but you barely see him, he sits sleeping on an armchair in the living room where Buzz discovers the TV commercial of the Buzz Lightyear action figure. Some fans speculate that Mr. Philips mistreats Scudd hence why he left when he noticed his master snoring, but I don't believe it. He just heard his masters snoring and thought it was just him and left. You can see in the yard that he is the kind of man that gets tempted by the companies that sells home builindg materials and he starts projects like doing a sprinkler system but doesn't get around to finish it so it stays half-finished (these are comfirmed by John Lasseter and the gang on the audio commentary on the DVD and Blu-rays). Consindering how mom shouts after Sid when he misbehaves, it hints at that Mr. and Mrs. Philips are not great parents unlike Andy's mom (and dad, it is speculated that he's dead as he probably had Woody as his favorite toy and he inherited it from his dad and therefore Woody have a lot sentimental value to him), hence why Sid is such a messed up kid. Joe Ranft and his brother Jerome (who also works at Pixar as a scultor of character models that get scanned into the computer) used to break their toys as kids, such one time they dropped a cinder block on a Tonka Truck and it got crushed unlike the commercial which said could carry a huge rock (you know, commercials often exaggerate). There was also a Pixar animator that like Sid, used to take apart toys and put them together in a weird faschion, he became an inspiration for Sid.

[@nathanadams4595]

Ahh memories… I remember my mom got me a Woody for Christmas, but couldn’t find buzz until Easter.

[@Yamigata]

The whole idea for this movie is almost a complete copy of an even older made-for-TV movie called The Christmas Toy. Toys come to life when everyone leaves the room, the favorite doll gets jealous of the new "action warrior" doll that arrived as a Christmas gift and doesn't know she's a toy. Produced by the Jim Henson Company.
