Disney-Pixar's TOY STORY and TOY STORY 2 finally come to Blu-ray

That's right. "Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2" are finally coming out in Blu-ray + DVD combo pack. I just watched "Toy Story" last night, and it looks phenomenal in 1080p. Even the scene with the highly textured woven car seat looks great, while you'd expect at least SOME noise.

The best part about Blu-ray is that you tend to notice things you may have missed in the DVD versions. In this case, every little toy hidden in the corner takes on new life.

From Disney-Pixar:

In 1995, "Toy Story" made history as the first feature-length computer animated film and, together with its beloved sequel "Toy Story 2," helped establish Disney•Pixar as creators of unrivaled quality family entertainment. Now, viewers can rediscover these wondrous tales of what happens when humans leave the room--and toys come to life--as "Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2" debut on Disney Blu-ray™ + DVD Combo Packs, followed seven weeks later by the Special Edition DVDs.
