Toy Story

Woody, a pull-string cowboy doll, is the leader of a group of toys that belong to a boy named Andy Davis, and come to life whenever they want but choose to stay inanimate when humans are around. With his family moving to a new home and having a party, both one week before his birthday, the toys stage a reconnaissance mission to discover Andy's new presents. Andy receives a space ranger Buzz Lightyear action figure, whose impressive features soon see him replacing Woody as Andy's favorite toy. Woody is disappointed and resentful at his replacement, while Buzz does not understand that he is a toy, believing himself to be a real space ranger, and sees Woody as an interference in his mission to return to his "home planet". The toys then find out that Andy's next door neighbor, Sid Phillips, has been kicked out of summer camp and Rex, another of Andy's toys, explains to Buzz that Sid tortures and destroys toys just for fun. As Andy prepares to go to a family outing at the space themed Pizza Planet restaurant with Buzz, Woody attempts to have Buzz misplaced, but ends up knocking him out a window instead, causing the other toys to think that Woody tried to get rid of him. With Buzz missing, Andy takes Woody with him to Pizza Planet instead. Buzz, however, climbs aboard the car and confronts Woody as they stop at a gas station. The two toys fight and accidentally land outside the car, which drives off and leaves them stranded. Woody spots a truck bound for Pizza Planet and plans to rendezvous with Andy there, convincing Buzz to come with him by telling him it will take him to his home planet. Once at Pizza Planet, Buzz makes his way into a claw game machine shaped like a spaceship, thinking that it is the ship Woody promised him. While Woody clambers in to try and rescue him, they happen to get captured by Sid. At Sid's house, the two desperately stage numerous attempts to escape before Andy's family's moving day, encountering nightmarish hodge-podge toys of Sid's creation as well as Sid's vicious dog, Scud. When Buzz sees a commercial for Buzz Lightyear action figures just like himself and realizes that he is a toy, he accidentally breaks off his arm when an attempt to fly, and becomes too depressed to participate in Woody's escape plan. Woody attempts to tell the other toys from Andy's house that Buzz is alive, but when he accidentally shows them the broken arm they think he murdered Buzz and refuse to help him and Buzz get back home. Sid prepares to destroy Buzz by strapping him to a rocket, but is delayed by a thunderstorm and sleeps for the night. Woody convinces Buzz that life is worth living even if he is not a space ranger because of the joy he can bring to children. Buzz regains his spirit, and tries to free Woody from a toolbox Woody is trapped under, but Sid wakes up and comes for him before Woody and Buzz can escape. Cooperating with Sid's mutant toys, Woody stages a rescue for Buzz and scares Sid away by coming to life, telling him to "play nice" and not destroy his toys. However, the two miss Andy's car as it drives away to his new house. Running out on the road, they manage to climb onto the moving truck but Scud chases them and Buzz tackles the dog to save Woody. Woody attempts to rescue Buzz with Andy's RC but the other toys, who still distrust him, toss him off onto the road when they assume that Woody is trying to get rid of RC as well. Just then, Buzz rides up behind Woody on RC and they drive towards the truck. Spotting Woody driving RC back with Buzz alive, the other toys realize their mistake and try to help them into the truck. When RC's batteries become depleted, Woody ignites the rocket on Buzz's back and manages to throw RC into the moving truck just as the duo go soaring into the air. Buzz then opens his wings to cut himself free of the rocket moments before it explodes, and he and Woody glide through the air and land safely in the car. Andy looks in the box and is elated to find Buzz and Woody, who he assumes must have been there the whole time he thought they were lost. On Christmas Eve at their new house, Buzz and Woody become good friends and stage another reconnaissance mission to prepare for the new toy arrivals, one of which is a Mrs. Potato Head, much to the delight of Mr. Potato Head. Woody jokingly asks Buzz "What could Andy possibly get...that is worse than you?", but the two then share a worried smile as they discover that Andy's new gift is a puppy. [edit]
