Pretty decent set, even if there were no movies here that really stand out, other than maybe Into the Wild.
I hope that the next 25 is better than the first.

Toy Story had a large impact on the film industry with its innovative computer animation. After the film's debut, various industries were interested in the technology used for the film. Graphics chip makers desired to compute imagery similar to the film's animation for personal computers; game developers wanted to learn how to replicate the animation for video games; and robotics researchers were interested in building artificial intelligence into their machines that compared to the lifelike characters in the film. Various authors have also compared the film to an interpretation of Don Quixote as well as humanism.[87][88] In addition, Toy Story left an impact with its catchphrase "To Infinity and Beyond", sequels, and software, among others.
