Toy Story - 7/10
My first Pixar movie was Monsters Inc. Saw every single one since then except Cars, but I never had the chance to watch the original Pixar animated film. Because Pixar made monumental advancements in their cg techniques and storytelling with every incarnation, by the time I got around to watching the original, I was incredibly underwhelmed. The story was simple and the cg looked bland by comparison. But as this was the movie that jumpstarted the 3d animated movie craze followed by all the movie studios, I acknowledge the impact of this film. This movie still surpasses all the dreck being churned out by Dreamworks, at least.
Toy Story 2 - 9/10
Wow! The quality difference between 1 and 2 is incredible. There is an enormous jump in the graphics between this and the orignal. Storytelling wise, it was the typical mastery you expect from Pixar. The backstory to Jessie especially, brought a tear to my eye. /gives up mancard. But what I like especially is how the characters go through real human issues. You can still relate to StinkyPete and how he came to have his particular mentality. Superb movie.
