Toy Story
In 1995, a little-known animation house owned by Steve Jobs--but originally founded and eventually sold to Jobs by George Lucas--called Pixar, put out an animated film called "Toy Story." The movie, starring the voices of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, focused on the lives and adventures of a group of toys living with a young boy named Andy.

The movie was an unexpected hit, earning more than $350 million worldwide. And over time, it has held up as a solid piece of storytelling. But what really made "Toy Story" noteworthy as a historical artifact is that it was the first-ever fully computer-generated animated feature film.
