Well, my mom says that she took me to see Toy Story when it first came out in theaters cuz it was the first completely CGI film. I don’t remember actually seeing it but I remember my mom taking me to McDonald’s and getting a Toy Story toy with a happy meal or something like that. The first Pixar I remember actually seeing was A Bug’s Life, which I got for my 7th birthday if I’m not mistaken.
I definitely didn’t see Toy Story in theaters (It’s older than I am ;-P), and I doubt I saw ABL or TS2 in theaters, however I do think Toy Story was my first one, IDK when I saw it but I remember it. I didn’t see Toy Story 2 until like 5 or 6 years ago… and I saw parts of A Bug’s Life over the years but I first truly saw it about 3 years ago.
However, I definitely do remember seeing MI, FN, Cars, Wall-e, Up, and of course TS3 in theaters. I’m pretty sure I saw The Incredibles, not 100% however… I never saw Ratatouille in theaters, but I got it shortly after it’s DVD release. TS3 was the first one that I’m 100% sure I saw on its release date, and I will continue to do so until Pixar flops (hopefully never, but not so sure after hearing about Planes…)
I saw all of the shorts for the first time around 2 years ago on the Pixar Shorts collection.
I was born in 1993 so by the time i could go to the pictures was 95 when Toy Story was released. I don’t really remember seeing Tin Toy before it if i did i’d have nightmares about that baby. Thats also why Toy Story 3 had a great impact on me it’s like most of us are basically Andy’s age and grew up with him (I’m 17). How I miss playing with toys.
The first I saw in theaters was Toy Story 2, but the original was the first I saw.
Toy Story 2. I barely remember watching it though.
Same here. I remember being in the theater and seeing posters of Jessie and Woody(<3) everywhere, but I recall nothing of watching the movie.
Toy Story was my first Pixar movie. When I was younger it was my favorite movie (second to Star Wars).
Snipe, Toy Story was my PoF until I was 9, and now it is again, with The Incredibles.
I thinkI said earlier in this post that the first Pixar movie I saw was Toy story, and the first in theaters was Monsters, Inc. But the more I think about it, I believe it was Toy Story 2 first saw in theaters But the only part I remember is the end credits with Barbie
Let’s see if I remember, phew
The first Pixar short I saw was Tin Toy on TV when I was about 2. The first movie I saw was A Bug’s Life when it came out on video in 1999. I never got to see Toy Story at that time because I was born in 1995 when it just came out, and I was much too young to see a movie in theatres. Like Tin Toy before it, A Bug’s Life blew me away, but it was incredibly scary and probably turned me into the psycho I am today. However, once my parents realized I had grown connected to these two Pixar productions (three with the included Geri’s Game), they had bought me Toy Story. So at that moment I saw all the rest of the Pixar films in chronological order, as they all individually added to a big part of my childhood (until Cars when my childhood essentially ended, but would not be completely finished until Toy Story 3). A Bug’s Life was my first movie, but as an introduction to Pixar, Tin Toy takes the cake. I suppose I am a rare sort because of that.
I remember seeing Toy Story when I was about 3 & I absolutely loved it & it’s still my favorite Pixar movie.
It was Toy Story as far as I can remember. I owned it on VHS along with several other Disney films such as Lady and the Tramp, Fox and the Hound, Winnie The Pooh and the Honey Tree, and several others. I also later owned Toy Story 2 and A Bug’s Life on VHS.
It was Toy Story, certainly. I remember I went through 4 tapes because I watched it so often they kept breaking. Thank God for DVD!
^Haha! I was the same way with the original Winnie the Pooh, except I think mine just got stuck in the VCR - we were so heartbroken that day. Oddly enough, I don’t think we ever replaced it…
I think it was either Monsters, Inc or A Bug’s Life.
I’m pretty sure it was Monsters.
But idk, I was probably only 4ish when Monsters Inc came out.
I was also 4 when I saw Monsters Inc., and I must say, it scared the living daylights out of me.
Like many, the first Pixar film I saw was Toy Story, my parents did take me to see it in the cinema but I don’t remember the experience at all, unfortunately. I later on VHS though whilst I was still young.
I do remember a period where I watched my Toy Story 2 VHS after I got it every day for quite a while though
I think it was Toy Story But i don´t remember where i saw the movie…
I saw Toy Story on it’s preview weekend on my 7th birthday!
I remember thinking how amazing it was back then. What an influence that day had on me!
A Bug’s Life was the first Pixar movie that I watched, and I think it was also the first movie I saw in theaters. It scared me so bad. It really did. I think I was like, 3 or 4 years old, if I can remember correctly.
The second Pixar movie I saw was Toy Story and my sis and I watched it on TV with our parents.
And, on another note, Pixar only started to influence me when Finding Nemo came out. I remember being so excited for that movie. Ahh… good memories.
