![]() ![]() Unfortunately, what the other studios seemed to take from Toy Story’s success was “hey, look how much money that movie made – if we make a CGI animation then we can do it too!” rather than “hey, look how much money that movie made – if we make a film that good then we can do it too!” – and while of course I haven’t seen all the CGI animations that have been made, I’d be willing to suggest that Pixar’s worst film to date is better than any other studio’s best CGI animation.īecause he has become such a fixture in the credits of animated movies since Toy Story, it’s difficult to imagine today quite how odd it seemed that Randy Newman – composer of controversial, bitingly satirical songs and mature scores for serious adult dramas – was chosen to compose that score (though he was and is Lasseter’s musical hero). It’s been 15 years since Toy Story changed the way animated movies were made – in the intervening period, all the other studios jumped on Pixar’s computer-animated bandwagon and very few hand-drawn animations are made today (even Disney withdrew – ironically it took the arrival of John Lasseter as their creative director to reverse that decision).
