Tin Toy

"You know, the more we watch this computer animation, the more amazing it gets! you see i know all about this next film because Tin Toy was the first computer animated cartoon to ever win an Oscar! it proved that we toys could come to life in a totally believable way, it pushed the state-of-the-art, without Tin Toy, there would've been no ''Toy Story! but don't let me get too technical."

Tin Toy is a 1988 American computer-animated short film produced by Pixar and directed by John Lasseter. The short film, which runs five minutes, stars Tinny, a tin one-man-band toy, attempting to escape from Billy, a destructive infant.

Plot
A tin toy's daily routine as a drum major gets interrupted by a meddlesome baby who continuously follows and torments him.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) The third short-film of having decent CGI in late 1980s standards
 * 2) In the scene where baby falls down and cries, it did show Tinny's remorseful and feeling sorry for him.
 * 3) Great chase scenes, like when Tinny gets chased by the baby.
 * 4) A funny scene where a Baby puts a bag onto his head.
 * 5) Great sound effects.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) While good, the model for the baby hasn't aged well and it looks a little nightmare-ish by today's standards.

Trivia

 * Tinny also appeared as a cameo in Toy Story 4.
 * The Sequel To Tin Toy Short Called A Tin Toy Christmas was planned but it was scrapped.
