 | The "Toy Story" movies helped usher in a new era for Disney, as the company slowly moved away from the standard animated films that made them famous (reserving them for direct to video sequels) and started breaking grounds in the field of computer animation. This has since spawned some of the House of Mouse's best films, including "A Bug's Life", "Monsters Inc.", "Finding Nemo" and "The Incredibles".
I will dwell on plot details, though I will say that the large accumilation of voice talents (led by Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Don Rickles, Annie Potts, Joan Cusack and Kelsey Grammer) is the best cast ever assembled for a Disney movie. Instead, I will talk about this two dvd set. You get both films, obviously. (It should be noted that "Toy Story 2" is one of the few sequels that was better than the firs, which was great in its own right). But you are also treated to some extras. For starters, you get the option of watching the films in either full screen or widescreen. You don't get a lot of bonus features, but you get the Oscar nominated short films, "Tin Toy" (which won) and "Luxo Jr." "Toy Story 2" also has a hilarious outtakes reel at the end that is very fun to watch.
But it all comes down to the films themselves, which are two of Disney's most treasured classics, and deservedly so. These films are essetial for any dvd collection. |

 | Genuinely enjoyable and goodhearted children's fair. In an era of vulgar obnoxious "children's" movies like the hit and miss Shrek 2 and the odious Shark Tale, Toy Story 2 is the rare childrebn's movie you can actually leave your kids alone in the room with. Also, its wickedly funny in a clean way for any astute adults. Kids movies don't get any better. |

 | In this review I actually have 3 subjects to brag about! First I am going to brag about Amazon.com. I really don't think they get enough praise for the work they do for us!
I went to the new 'Overstock' and they had one of five things I was looking for. The price was a couple of dollars lower but Amazon.com had ALL of the items and because my order was over $20 I got FREE SHIPPING! I have dealt with this company in the past and any time there has been a mistake it has been fixed immediately and the mistakes have been VERY MINIMUM! THANKS AMAZON!
Now for Toy Story. I never got to go the the movies to see it but being a Toy fanatic and having a broken leg at the time I ordered it from Amazon.com (who else?) and had it delivered straight to my door. It was fantastic and I do believe it could be Disney at his best!
So then part two came out and I had to go to the theatres to see it plus put it on pre-order from Amazon.com. So I went and saw it and it was so much better then the first. I'm not a Star Wars fan at all but I did get the little jokes in the movie and I can't help but be impressed but the 'life-like' impersinations of the human world. It was abosoultely marvelous.
Old and new characters and a similar but different story-line make this movie one of the very best from Disney. I can only hope they will make a part three.
Thanks a lot to Amazon.com and Disney for allowing us to get what we want when we want it!
