I like Wallace and Gromit, and I love Toy Story .... for my 40th birthday I went out with my workmates to see Toy Story 2 ... we had a brilliant time, and I got a model of Bullseye. (Which I lost when moving house .... dang).
The best bit was the 'out-takes' at the end. Fantastic.

To infinity - and beyond!

I love 'The Big Knights' too. A friend of mine taped most of them off the telly and we all sat and watched them one afternoon, before role-playing.

I love Pixar's out-takes. Whoever came up with the idea of deliberately animating out-takes is a genius. My favourite TS2 out-take is where Buzz's wings pop out, and Woody has written 'This space for rent', on them.

Toy Story 2 moved my liver a foot to the left after Glasto a few years vback - my tent was in the direct line of the bass bins for the cinema screen. Very strange experience...

Finding Nemo? I'm sure that's not out until October over here in the UK.

Didn't Pixar do a version of "Gerry's Game" also? That makes me laugh every time I see it.

A Toy Story joke I liked was the toy tool set Buzz used to try to fix his ship. It has "Benford" stamped on it -- "Benford Tools" was the made-up sponsor of "Tool Time," the home improvement show on Tim Allen's sitcom, "Home Improvement."

Coo; that's a bit of trivia I didn't know before.

One of the biggest laughs about 'Toy Story' was on Mattel, who refused to let Barbie appear, because they thought the movie would be a flop. Only went and won a special achievement Oscar, didn't it ? Funnily enough, Barbie condescended to appear in the sequel.

Yeah, voiced by the Little Mermaid. Couldn't they have found someone less annoying?
