Disney Pixar Toy Story Movie

Just in time the toys have resumed their positions when into Andy's room bursts Andy along with all his party guests. Andy and the gang place Andy's new toy on the bed while casting Woody off, but before the boys can start playing with his new toy Andy's mother calls him and the rest of the boys back downstairs to play games. The coast is clear for the toys to come back to life where they discover Woody under the bed and wonder why, to which Woody replies it was a mistake, but the toys worry if the new toy on the bed is there to replace Woody.

Woody thinks this is nonsense and wants to give the new toy a nice big Andy's room welcome and starts to climb back up onto the bed. Peering over from the edge Woody is startled to find a new age space toy who goes by the name of Buzz Lightyear.
Buzz is trying to communicate with star command but they won't reply, he thinks he has crash landed on Andy's bed while travelling to sector 12. Woody surprises Buzz with a hello and while Woody tries explaining that the bed is his spot in the room, Buzz Lightyear continues to act as the space ranger he believes he is, even as the other toys ascend onto the bed he tells them all he is stationed in the gamma quadrant in sector 4 and a member of the elite universe protection unit of the space ranger core, protecting the galaxy from the invasion from the evil emperor Zurg. The toys are all a little bemused with Buzz as he really thinks he is a space ranger yet all the toys are really astonished with how well Buzz is put together, everyone that is except for Woody.

Woody, now starting to feel a little less valued, irritably tries telling Buzz that he is a toy just like everyone else and not the space ranger he thinks he is and tells the other toys that he doesn't fight evil, shoot lasers or fly, but Buzz disagrees with Woody claiming that he can indeed fly. Buzz spreads his wings & springs off Andy's bed ricocheting across a few toys getting extremely lucky then skyrocketing in the air off a toy car then being catapulted by a plane landing securely back on Andy's bed to applause and leaving the toys to believe that he can indeed fly.

Woody starts to see his role of Andy's favorite toy slipping away, in a dream like state Woody see's Andy playing with both him and Buzz but slowly the cowboy pictures on the wall start to change to pictures of Buzz and the bedding takes on a space ranger theme. The other toys all love and look up to Buzz and Woody feels even more rejected when Buzz takes his place on Andy's bed and he finds himself placed overnight in the toy box.

Woody awakes from the toy box to feeling more rejection when Buzz announces that Andy has marked his name on the underside of his foot. Taking this as the final insult Woody threatens Buzz to stay away from Andy and mocks him because Buzz is still acting as though he is a real space ranger. Suddenly panic strikes, Sid, the boy who lives next door and tortures toys for pleasure, is back from Summer Camp after getting kicked out early this year. Woody uses Lenny, the toy binoculars, as an assistant to find a Combat Carl toy in Sid's backyard with an explosive device strapped to his back and Sid throwing stones at him. Buzz wants to teach Sid a lesson but it's too late, Sid lights the explosive and Combat Carl is blown to pieces before Buzz can react.

After a long hard day packing ready for the home move Andy's mum decides to treat Andy to dinner at pizza planet and says he can bring one toy along. Woody finds himself on Andy's dresser with buzz and asks the eight ball if Andy will choose him to take, but the answer is not favorable. In his anger Woody throws the eight ball down who accidently ends up stuck behind the dresser and Woody sees an opportunity for Buzz to suffer the same fate but unfortunately Woody's plan to drive RC at Buzz and knock him behind the dresser goes dramatically wrong and the table lamp ends up knocking Buzz out of the open window.

The toys all rush to the window with the belief that Buzz has had an accident and fell from the window but Buzz is nowhere to be seen and the toys suspect he could have bounced into Sid's yard. The attention then turns to RC who makes the toys aware that this was no accident and that Woody had pushed Buzz. The toys then begin to wonder if Woody would do the same to them if Andy decided to play with them more than Woody and revolt wanting Woody's scalp but just in time Andy returns to the room looking for Buzz to accompany him to pizza planet for dinner.

Andy searches for Buzz before heading out to the Pizza Planet but Buzz is nowhere to be found. Andy decides instead of eating alone to grab Woody after he could not find his new pal Buzz. Just outside Buzz sees Andy hauling Woody by his stuffed arm into the family Minivan and runs off after them jumping on the Minivans bumper as Andy's family leaves the driveway.

While the toys are at home wondering where Buzz could be the minivan pulls into a local gas station for fuel where the family head inside leaving Woody alone in the back seat with Buzz who surprises Woody by jumping on him from the sky roof window leading up to a fight which jolts both of them from the familys Minivan. Andy returns with his Mom & head off to Pizza Planet leaving Woody & Buzz outside unknown to Andy.

Continuing to argue Buzz decides that its best if he goes his own way in his search for star command and to save the universe, but just as he starts to walk away from Woody a pizza planet delivery truck pulls into the gas station for fuel and Woody spots it and knows it will lead them back to pizza planet and Andy. Knowing he needs Buzz to come with him he tells him that the Pizza Planet Logo on the top of the truck is actually a real spaceship. Woody & Buzz sneak inside the Pizza Planet truck just in time before it leaves and set out to find Andy at the Pizza Planet.

As planned the delivery truck arrives back at the pizza planet and the two of them sneak into the building, Buzz under a burger box and Woody under a big gulp drink cup. The two of them make it in successfully and see Andy but Woody's little white lie is turning into a bigger problem as Buzz finds a Spaceship inside Pizza Planet thinking it's his way home Buzz leaves Woody just as the two of them get a chance to return to Andy.

The spaceship turns out to be just a crane game, unknown to Buzz, and he meets the toy aliens inside. Woody follows Buzz and climbs in and as Buzz is telling the aliens he needs to commandeer their spaceship Woody notices that Sid is nearby and heading towards the game they are inside. Sid notices the machine and he wants to play. After winning an alien on his first try Sid is shocked to discover a Buzz Lightyear inside the machine. He gives it another go using the claw to clamp down on Buzz who Woody tries to save but both are captured and taken home to Sid's house to play.

At home Sid decides to give his dog, spike, a treat, in the form of the toy alien he won back at the pizza planet. He runs upstairs to his room after taking one of his sister's toys. Inside Sid's bedroom Woody and Buzz witness Sid perform an 'operation' on his sister's doll swapping heads with a dinosaur. Sid leaves the bedroom and Woody tries the door only to find it locked and no other means of escape. Frightened for his life Woody starts to see toys emerging from the darkness but these aren't run of the mill toys, these are toys Sid has performed his operations on before and mutilated them from their original figure. Even more scared Woody runs to Buzz, who thinks the creatures are cannibals, for help and the pair take solace in Sid's backpack. Meanwhile the other toys are still looking out for Buzz as Andy returns home and they overhear Andy telling his mum that he can't find Woody anywhere in the minivan.

The following morning Woody finds himself being tortured, Sid is holding a magnifying glass towards the sun and pointing the beam of hot light onto Woody's forehead. Luckily Sid's mum calls him and Sid has to rush downstairs and in his haste he leaves the bedroom door open.

Woody runs out and heads downstairs only to find Sid's dog Spike laying asleep at the foot of the stairs. Quietly heading back upstairs neither Woody nor Buzz want to get bit by Spike who is sleeping so they decide to try and sneak away but Woody's pull string gets snagged on the staircase railing which wakes up the dog. In a desperate attempt to escape the toys scamper off, Woody into a cupboard and Buzz heads behind a door hiding from the dog where he sees a Buzz Lightyear commercial in the distance on television.

After watching the commercial Buzz feels despondent and walking back onto the landing he notices an outside window open opposite and decides to fly over and out just to prove to himself that he is the real Buzz Lightyear. Climbing onto the handrail Buzz jumps to set off flying only to fail and he helplessly falls to the base of the stairs snapping his arm off. After failing to fly Buzz realizes that he is just a toy. As Buzz lay's on the floor Sid's sister Hannah finds him then takes him to her room.

Woody opens the cupboard door where he was hiding to hear Buzz's voice coming from a nearby bedroom, investigating further he finds Buzz sat at a toy tea table with some other toys, who all must have been operated on by Sid, being played with by Hannah. Distracting Hannah Woody runs in to find a delirious Buzz mumbling and rambling on, picking up Buzz's dismembered arm Woody brings Buzz round and he apologises saying he is just a little depressed at the minute. Breaking down again on the landing Buzz gives Woody the idea to shout across to the other toys from the window.

Meanwhile back at Andy's house Hamm and Mr. Potatohead are playing a game of Battleship when they notice Woody shouting across from over in Sid's house. Woody's asking for their help to get back to Andy's bedroom but the toys are dubious after what happened to Buzz. Buzz won't come to the window and Woody tells everyone that Buzz is ok and Woody attempts to persuade the gang to believe Buzz is ok but the gang won't believe him especially after Woody reveals Buzz's dislocated arm. The toys leave the window and Slinky, in disbelief, closes the blinds behind him leaving Woody to fend for himself.

Seconds later Woody discovers Buzz being surrounded by Sid's mutilated toys and fears the worst, only to discover that the toys wanted and have repaired Buzz Lightyears broken arm returning him back to his manufactured self. Things are finally looking up for Woody and Buzz, that is until Sid comes back to his room with his new package which he's been waiting all week for. Inside the box Sid pulls out "The Big One" a giant firework rocket he plans on using to blow up a toy.

Sid looks for the wimpy cowboy doll but Woody hides in a crate and Sid cannot find him, but steps on Buzz Lightyear while searching and sets off one of his voice commands in the process. What a perfect toy to blow up Sid thinks to himself after strapping Buzz Lightyear around the rocket. By sheer luck Buzz is spared as a thunderstorm sets in so Sid decides to set his alarm and the launch for the following morning. While back at Andy's house, Andy is restless as he thinks he won't find Woody and Buzz before the house move tomorrow and all the other toys are packed ready to go.

As Sid falls asleep Woody has to snap Buzz out of his disheartened, feeling worthless mood and tells Buzz that he should be the one strapped to the rocket and what chance does he have when Andy can play with a Buzz Lightyear action figure instead of him and the tables seem to have turned as Woody now feels disheartened but his chat with Buzz seems to have worked and Buzz tells Woody that there's a kid over in that house that needs us !

With that Buzz tries to help Woody out of the crate, Sid has placed a toolbox on top of the crate to stop Woody escaping and Buzz is pushing them trying to edge them both over the table edge and he pushes one bit too much and the noise from the crate and toolbox falling nearly wakes Sid, but this was only a short lived reprieve as Sid's alarm clock starts to ring and Sid awakes.

The big day is here Sid grabs Buzz & heads outside. Woody has to think quick and he asks Sid's toys if they will help him save his friend. The toys agree and Woody sets out the plan telling the toys they will have to break some rules on the way. The plan is to get Spike shut outside the front door and all the toys into the back yard where Sid is waiting to fire Buzz up into the sky. The toys follow and execute the plan to perfection.

In the backyard Sid is counting down the launch ready to blast off Buzz when he notices Woody laying on the ground, wondering how he got there Sid casts him onto the BBQ and says we can have a cookout later and continues with his countdown. Just as Sid nears the call of one Woody starts to speak from the BBQ, Sid goes to pick him up thinking he is broke but Woody actually replies to Sid's comments and along with Woody the rest of the toys all come out from hiding and give Sid the scare of his life.

Sid shrieks and Woody tells him to be nice to toys. Sid freaks, drops Woody and runs into the house . . . Buzz is saved!
There's no time to celebrate, though . . . next door the moving van is pulling away!
They nearly make it to the car, but Buzz gets caught in the fence, thanks to the rocket and Woody goes back to help him out. Andy's car speeds away, closely followed by the moving truck. The two toys start to run, grabbing a strap that hangs from the moving truck. Buzz reaches the ledge, but Sid's dog grabs Woody's leg.
Woody tells Buzz to take care of Andy for him . . . but Buzz jumps onto the dog's nose and drives him off, leaving Woody to lift the door of the moving truck to find help. He digs into the box marked Andy's toys and finds RC, then throws him out the door, horrifying the other toys. Ignoring them, Woody continues with his original plan, directing RC under a parked car to pick Buzz up and bring him back to the moving van while they're stopped at the light.
A chase ensues, with the dog running after RC and Buzz Lightyear. The toys in the van don't believe Woody when he says he's trying to help Buzz, so he is tossed out the door again, just in time to be picked up by RC. They realize within a few minutes that Buzz is still alive and set about trying to help the toys get onto the moving truck, but RC's batteries are dying.
Fortunately, with a rocket strapped to Buzz's back, it's a simple matter to light it and shoot up into the sky. They drop RC into the truck and Buzz Lightyear maneuvers to drop neatly in through the car's skylight to land in the box beside Andy.
Andy is delighted to find his toys already in the car and hugs them both happily.
The movie closes with Christmas . . . another stressful event for the toys. Army men are huddled in the tree, reporting back on the gifts. The toys stand around discussing what the new toys will be like. Buzz Lightyear is anxious, and for good reason when we hear a puppy's bark through the radio!
