Theme Tune
You’ve Got a Friend in Me – Randy Newman
You’ve got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you’re miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you’ve got a friend in me
Yeah, you’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
You got troubles, I’ve got ’em too
There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you
We stick together and see it through
‘Cause you’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you
The way I do
It’s me and you, boy
Our friendship will never die
You’re gonna see it’s our destiny
You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
You’ve got a friend in me
Quote
Woody: All right, that’s enough! Look, we’re all very impressed with Andy’s new toy.
Buzz: Toy?
Woody: T-O-Y, Toy!
Buzz: Excuse me, I think the word you’re searching for is “Space Ranger”.
Woody: The word I’m searching for – I can’t say, because there’s preschool toys present.

Trivia
When RC Car carrying Woody and Buzz runs low on battery and fails to catch up to the removal truck, only one single car drives past them after, the one that puts the match out Woody is trying to light. Yet when they light the rocket and fly towards the truck, they pass about ten cars driving behind the truck, not just one.
Trivia
Tom Hanks recorded his dialogue during the breaks of Sleepless in Seattle (1993) and A League of Their Own (1992). He didn’t want to record his dialogue during the breaks of Philadelphia (1993) or Forrest Gump (1994), because he felt he shouldn’t do comedic roles in between minutes of playing serious roles.
RC Car is Andy’s remote control toy car that appears in Toy Story and Toy Story 2. He can move on his own, but loses control once someone takes a hold of his remote. He can also communicate only through a series of beeps and whirs, though the toys (specifically Mr. Potato Head) can understand him perfectly.(RC makes whirring motor sounds after Buzz falls out a window)
Rex: “Hey, everyone, RC’s trying to say something! What is it, boy?”
Mr. Potato Head: “He’s saying that this was no accident. I mean Humpty-Dumpty was pushed…by Woody!”
―Rex and Mr. Potato Head, deciphering RC’s whirring sounds[
Trivia
Sid Phillips is said to be inspired by a former Pixar employee of the same last name who was known to disassemble toys and use the parts to build bizarre creations.
Trivia
Some 3D effects were too complex, or even impossible, to calculate at the time of this film; subtle tricks are used to avoid them. Examples: explosions, thus the viewer doesn’t see Combat Carl’s demise; hair dynamics, so Andy, Sid, and Molly all have short hair while Andy’s mother’s hair is always tied back in a simple-to-model pony tail; and flying water droplets, thus the viewer doesn’t see any liquid when Woody dunks his burning head into a bowl of cereal.
Quote
Woody: [through his voice box] Reach for the sky!
Sid Phillips: Huh?
Woody: This town ain’t big enough for the two of us!
Sid Phillips: What?
Woody: Somebody’s poisoned the waterhole!
Sid Phillips: It’s busted.
Woody: Who are you calling busted, Buster?
Sid Phillips: Huh?
Woody: That’s right! I’m talking to you, Sid Philips! We don’t like being blown up, Sid. Or smashed, or torn apart.
Sid Phillips: [hyperventilating] W-we?
Woody: That’s right, your toys!
[Mutant Toys get up and surround the terrified Sid]
Woody: From now on, you must take good care of your toys, because if you don’t, we’ll find out, Sid!
Woody: [while turning head around slowly] We toys can see EVERYTHING!
Woody: [speaking and moving] So play nice!
[Sid screams, drops Woody and runs inside]
Trivia
Early scripts for the film featured a Barbie doll in a prominent role as Woody’s love interest. The original ending sequence, in which Buzz and Woody chase the moving truck, was scripted to have Barbie drive her Corvette off the truck and rescue Woody and Buzz from Sid’s dog, a-la Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991). Mattel, the company that owns the Barbie character, declined on the basis that they thought the film would be a failure and that they didn’t want Barbie to have a defined personality, preferring to let children imagine Barbie’s personality traits on their own. Thus, Barbie was dropped from the script, and her character was reworked into that of Bo-Peep. When the film proved a huge success, Mattel did allow Barbie to appear in Toy Story 2 (1999).
