History

Historical Context

When Pixar and Disney launched Toy Story on November 22 1995, the first fully computer-animated feature, it earned $363 million worldwide and proved Disney chairman Michael Eisner wrong about its profitability. The film’s breakthrough established a model of high-budget franchise animation that today, with 2024 releases like Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Project Hail Mary, pushes global box-office totals beyond $2 billion.
