Film: Toy Story 2
Year: 1999
Director: John Lasseter
Synopsis: A movie about toys who come to life when humans are not around. The second movie in the trilogy follows the cowboy toy, Woody, who is stolen from his home by a toy dealer. Buzz Lightyear and the rest of Woody’s toy friends try to rescue him but once Woody finds out that he is a valuable collectable, he does not want to leave.
Rationale: I chose this movie because the Toy Story movies are my favourite. I love how the third film follows Andy, the owner of the toys, as a teenager. The children who grew up watching the films were also Andy’s age when the third film was released. The audience grew up with the characters.
