About
As of 2026, it's 31 years old.
Toy Story was the first fully computer-animated feature film, and in 1995 it made the wildly risky bet that audiences would care about a cowboy doll's insecurity issues rendered in then-revolutionary CGI. They did, enormously, and it launched Pixar from plucky studio to animation royalty.
The buddy rivalry between Woody and the delusional spaceman Buzz Lightyear — who, to your delight, does not realize he's a toy — gave us 'To infinity and beyond!' and a franchise that keeps making everyone cry.
Groundbreaking, funny, and surprisingly profound, Toy Story is the film that proved a new technology could still have an old-fashioned soul.
