Summary: This is a must buy
Review: A groundbreaking movie and it's equally excellent sequel...what more could you ask for? Lots of extra features too. It's just bursting with DVD excellence. If you're from the UK and hearing nightmare stories about the UK version on DVD, buy this USA copy instead - the packaging is nicer for starters anyway!

Summary: smart packaging
Review: For an average price, Disney did something right. They put both Toy Story and Toy Story 2 on Dvd. These dvd's are loaded with not only the movies, but outtakes, more info, and even other shorts by Pixar which helped pave the way for these movies. The hardest thing to do is get the Pixar shorts. Pixar even went out of their way to explain why they have the lamp in the logo with their first animation, Luxo Jr.. Tin Toy is included in Toy Story and you can see where the idea of Toy Story came from. Keep in mind, this was when they were still nobodies, so the baby looks a little weird. If you look closely though in Toy Story 2 when the piggy bank flips through the channels real quick, Tin Toy and half of Pixars animation including the hula-girl for the levi's comerical show up. It's real quick though. In fact you need to keep a look out in all Pixar movies, like Jerry(from another short) showing up in TS2. So enough about the finer points, a quick word on TS1 and TS2. TS1- A story about an old toy verses a new and the friendship that follows. This movie broke all the molds. It was well written, and for the first full length feature CG, this is a must have. TS2- Breaking the mold again by make a sequal to an animation better than the first. Jesse is a personal favorite, and who better than Joan Cussak as the voice. Pixar set out to make their people look better and had fun with fur and dust, which got added in at the last second. Disney had originally wanted this one to be straight to video, much like the Buzz lightyear traditonal, but Pixar would not have it any other way. The outtakes are not at the end of the movie, but rather can be acessed by the extras. What about the outtakes for TS1? I didn't forget them, they weren't made. The whole idea of outtakes started with A Bug's Life which came out after TS1 but before TS2. Over all review is definatley to get this package. Computer generated movies need to stay in digital format, so the dvd format is perfect for these movies.

Summary: This is so damned good
Review: It is really good, the best film my mate has ever seen, I didn't like it that much but it doesn't matter what I put. This film has helped the local shops by selling the toys, butwho cares. It isn't complete garbage, but it gets very close. Tom Hanks as Woody was fairly funny though, so I will forgive them for the shocking storyline and the awful cameo voice over by Andy Peters, that may have been there biggest mistake, he sounded completely fake. Anyway i has been very sucessful so there must have been something amazing that I missed, this iswhy I gave it 3 stars instead of 1.

Summary: don't waste your time and money on the 2-disc set!!!
Review: If you were like me, you would have cheerfully seen the movies for the outtakes/interviews...but the fact that the movies were exquisitely written and executed? The icing on the cake! So get the 3-disc set (you know you want to), and you will not be disappointed...the best part of the experience is seeing how they put the magic together - and then STILL being bowled over after seeing the movies for the 10th (20th...100th) time!

Summary: Better then the first one
Review: Wow. That is the only word that comes to mind after watching this movie masterpiece. There is a unfortunate trend in hollywood that sequels are worse then the orgianal. Toy Sory 2 proves that that is not always true. It also joins the ranks of sequels that are actually better then the origianal movie. This is the absoloute best movie sequel I have ever seen in my life. In fact its even better then the great origianal. Everything in this movie is fantastic,fantastic story that is more in-depth then the origianal, funny memorable charachters, absouloutly breathtaking animation, fantastic music, no shortage of humor and comedy, and better yet more action then the origianal. The story to Toy Story 2 is great and more in-depth then the origianal, exploring the question "what is the meaning of life?" beyond that Woody has been kidnapped by a big fat man who steals kids toys and is a filthy dealer. Buzz and the rest of the fantastic charachters must rescue him while woody tries to figure out a dilema. Should he go back to Andy, even though he will get thrown away eventually? or will he go to a toy museum in Japan and be loved by children from behind glass for many years to come? The cast of Toy story 2 is the exact same from the origianal, with a few new faces (Wheezy the penguin, Jessie the Cowgirl, Bullsye the horse, Stinky Pete the Prospector and the awsome and cool Evil Emporor Zurg). The animation for this movie is the most breathtaking you will ever see in a animated movie, every leaf, every crack in the road, every nail, every pebble of dirt is animated in superb style and grace. The music remains pretty much the same tune from the origianal, with a few new themes and a neat woodys roundup song. One thing the origianal Toy Story was famous for was its great sense of humor. Many a person would laugh at Buzz's "You are a sad strange little man and you have my pity" The sequel has no shortage of that ether. There are almost infinate parodys and jokes at big movies (Star Wars and a really funny Jurrasic park one to name a few) The first one was also chock full of inside jokes. Again this one has no shortage of that either. A Bugs life products are plentifully hidden in the movies, a vehicle from the origianal is on a road shot, the disney Pixar logo on Buzz's bottom in a very short shot, lots of funny shots when Ham is zooming through the TV channels, are all just a few of the funny shots in this movie. There is no shortage of Action in this, especially the Elevator battle sequence. This is truly a film for the ages. The Good: Everything! The Bad: Jessie can get very annoying And the Ugly: None!
