coming up for a sequel for Toy story must have been difficult but this story is just as magic as the first, in fact even more so. For the first time Ham, Rex, & Slink leave Andys room along with Buzz as woody has been stolen by a toy collector. they ned to act quick if they are to save him. All the characters are incredibly funny & deserve oscars for their performances.

If you are looking for a DVD for the kids this christmas then this is it, & even adults can enjoy it! Have a laugh & learn who woody really is.....

Biography: John Morris
[Top]
John Morris is a character in the Castlevania video game series. Bloodlines. He is a descendant of the Belmont family & wields what is probably the Vampire Killer whip, much like his ancestors. Eric Lecarde is a close friend to John Morris, as shown in the Bloodlines introduction. Castlevania Bloodlines is deeply intertwined with the storyline of Bram Stokers Dracula. As such, the father of John Morris is Quincy Morris, a character from the novel. Quincys relationship with the rest of the Belmont family is unclear; it is only known that the Morrises are somehow of Belmont lineage. It is interesting to note, that in the novel, Quincy is the one whom gave the killing blow to Dracula at the cost of his life. The very fact however, that he managed to unknowingly deal a crippling blow to Dracula may have been the foundation for his part in the Castlevania version of these events. Posters Of Toy Story 2
