The Story of Pixar's Toy Story

Pixar changed animation forever when they released Toy Story in 1995. It became the

first fully computer-animated feature film. But here's the crazy part: they almost went

bankrupt making it. The studio had to lay off staff and Pixar's future hung by

a thread. Steve Jobs, who owned Pixar at the time, was ready to

sell the company. Then Toy Story hit theaters and made 373 million dollars

worldwide. That one film saved Pixar and launched an entirely new era of

filmmaking. An era that would dominate Hollywood for decades.
