This fall season inside Disney In Depth we celebrate the memorable quotes across each of the Toy Story films that contributed to their collective hilarity and poignancy (be sure to check out my 25 Best Toy Story Quotes if you missed it). This November marks the 15th anniversary of Toy Story 2, my favorite in the franchise (from a one-liners standpoint).
In this edition I pick the 25 best Toy Story 2 quotes, so let’s get started. Just remember to not “talk to any toy you don’t know,” as Mrs. Potato Head would say.
1. “In just a few hours, you’ll be sittin’ around a campfire with Andy, makin’ delicious, hot schmoes.” – Buzz Lightyear, revving up Woody for Cowboy Camp.
2. “No, Buzz. I am your father.” – Zurg, informing the Space Ranger that he is his dad.
3. “Somewhere in that pad of stuffing is a toy who taught me that life’s only worth living if you’re being loved by a kid. And I traveled all this way to rescue that toy, because I believed him.” – Buzz Lightyear, encouraging Woody about the value of being Andy’s toy.
4. “Ride like the wind, Bullseye.” – Woody, encouraging his trusty horse to speed ahead.
5. “And this is the Buzz Lightyear aisle. Back in 1995, short-sighted retailers did not order enough dolls to meet demand. – Tour Guide Barbie, giving Andy’s toys a tour of Al’s Toy Barn.
