RECOGNITION<br />

FOR TOY STORY<br />

Toy Story was a great success at<br />

the box office, <strong>and</strong> critics loved<br />

the film as well. When it was<br />

released, Toy Story received<br />

two Golden Globe nominations<br />

<strong>and</strong> three Academy Award<br />

nominations. Pixar did not<br />

win either of these prestigious<br />

awards that year, but for many<br />

of its later films, Pixar would<br />

walk away with numerous<br />

awards for excellence.<br />

In addition to the rewards<br />

of happy audiences <strong>and</strong> financial<br />

success, Toy Story represented the<br />

fruition of a long-held dream.<br />

Catmull recalled,<br />

A lot of people said,<br />

congratulations, you guys did<br />

what you said you were going<br />

to do <strong>and</strong> you spent your whole<br />

careers doing it, so there was<br />
