If you are unaware as to what A113 is, it is an Easter egg (inside joke) that is present in all 13 of the Pixar animated feature films.Ī113 stands for the number of the classroom used for graphic design and character animation in the school used by John Lasseter and Brad Bird.Ī113 appears in all three Toy Story films on Andy’s mom’s car licence plate. I loved his organiser and each little compartment for different things, okay okay you get the picture ha ha! Let’s watch it again… I know this is weird but even as a child I was obsessed with that scene. The inner neat freak in me is showing…my favourite scene by far is when Woody is getting cleaned up for shipping to Japan. You see, Disney were giving nods to Star Wars even before they bought the rights! However, I think this one has to go to the classic Buzz and Zurg scene at the end of the film, “No Buzz, I am your father”. I am starting to wish I had said favourite quotes, but then we’d be here all day because there are some really funny and witty one-liners in this film, as there was in Toy Story. Potato Head last time, I’m going to be all diplomatic and choose Rex this time. Potato Head! They are two classic characters that I just love from this film franchise. As I said previously, it’s like the song of our childhood so how can you not love it, right?Īgain it’s a toss-up between Rex and Mr. Once again, Pixar do not fail to deliver and Randy Newman returns to compose and wrote all of the songs featured in this film and its soundtrack.Īlthough ‘You’ve Got A Friend In Me’ was featured in the first film, it is still my favourite song from this soundtrack. Her characteristics are almost polar opposite to Mr Potato Head which makes their pairing so comical.

Just like Mr Potato Head, her character provides alot of great one liners and comedy throughout this film.

Now I know that Mrs Potato Head was first introduced at the end of the first film, however it is not until Toy Story 2 that we get to appreciate her character in its full glory. He manipulated Woody and Jessie and overall causes nothing but trouble for the toys. In Woody’s Roundup, Stinky Pete comes across as a very slow, dim-witted character, whereas the toy is actually quite intellectual and cunning.Īt first Stinky Pete appears to be the grandfather/mentor figure in Al’s apartment, however he actually turns out to me one of the major villains of this film.

I really love Jessie’s charatcer, and I love the fact that she is voiced by Joan Cusack who just simply brings her to life.īullseye, like Jessie, was quite enthused to have Woody re-unite with them.īullseye is very loyal to Woody, which actually in turn prompts Woody’s desicion to have them return with him to Andy’s room.īullseye is quite clumsy which is probably why I like him so much. She is quite hesitant and scared at the thoughts of joining Andy’s toys which we learn ala flashback sequence is due to her owner Emily who grew up and became less fond of Jessie eventually leading to her giving Jessie away. She is so excited when Woody arrives that the gang is complete, that she comes off as a little crazed. Jessie is the overly enthusiastic and excitable toy Woody meets when he arrives at Al’s apartment. Seeing as I already discussed some of the major characters in my first blog post about Toy Story, I will actually discuss the new character introduced in this film. Jodi Benson as Barbie (yes as in the voice of The Little Mermaid) Return to Andy’s room with the rest of the toys, or go to Japan to be a collectable with Jessie, Bullseye and Stinky Pete. This is where he also meets the toys from the television show, Jessie the cowgirl, Bullseye, Woodies horse, and Stinky Pete. Whilst at Al, the toy collector’s apartment, Woody discovers that he is a collectable following the famous television series, Woody’s Roundup. When Woody is stolen by a crazed toy collecter, Buzz and the rest of the toys devise a plan to get him back to Andy’s room.

Toy Story 2, the sequel to Toy Story, yet again follows the adventures of Andy’s anthropomorphic toys. At first it was unsure if a sequel would work due to whether or not Tom Hanks and Tim Allen would be available/affordable, what the story would entail, and whether it would be computer animated by Pixar, or traditionally animated by Disney. Talks for a sequel to Toy Story began around one month after it’s release. Toy Story 2 is the third animated feature film from Pixar, which was released in 1999, and directed by John Lasseter. It’s back in full swing with Pixar’s 3rd feature film, Toy Story 2, huzzah! Alas I have not forgotten about my Pixar series! (Although it may have appeared that way).
