00:05Well, now I like the scope.
00:07I like that we walked into a studio a long time ago
00:11with this kind of like bizarre experiment
00:13that maybe was going to work or not.
00:15We had it explained to us that it wasn't really animation
00:19and it was something other than filmmaking,
00:22and yet it wasn't going to discount the true work
00:25that we really had to do as actors,
00:26and it ended up working out,
00:28and now it's entered into the sort of like the global consciousness of storytelling.
00:33So in order to be the guy, to be one of the guys,
00:37and to be the tallest of the bunch with those boots and the cowboy hat,
00:40this odd kind of professional and social responsibility goes along with it.
00:45So I still feel lucky that they picked me to be Woody.
00:54Well, you know, what I like now is that it's now the kids that are in college and universities,
00:59they're the ones that first, you know, saw the movie to begin with
01:02and spent an awful lot of time putting the, I'm going to say, VHS into the machine over and over
01:08again.
01:08So we've been part and parcel to an awful lot of lives,
01:11and now those little kids are adults,
01:13and there's no small amount of them are bringing their own kids to see Toy Story 3
01:18around the same time they saw Toy Story 1, or Toy Story, I guess is what it's called.
01:24And that's, you know, that's extraordinary to the timelessness of the classic.
01:29You know, the first one and the second one, you always come out and say,
01:31well, they can stand on their own, they're timeless classics.
01:34And they really are.
01:35They will never age.
01:36They will always be this happening, these stories that are happening right now.
01:40They'll have great immediacy to them.
01:42And holy smokes, what a, I bow before the power of the art form to be the Woody of it
01:49all.
