有1995年第一集成功的压力,本片导演 John Lasseter十分坚持续集的故事、人物必须更为有趣才行,所以在《玩具总动员2》中,故事重心摆在描写玩具被主人抛弃时的心路历程,因此创造出女牛仔 Jessie 这个新角色。片中许多创意桥段的设计更是让人会心一笑,营造出更胜第一集的精彩内容。配音由第一集电影的原班人马 Tom Hanks、Tim Allen等继续担任原来角色的配音,其它新加入的角色配音阵容有为女牛仔Jessie 配音的 Joan Cusack、为芭比娃娃配音的Jodi Benson,她就是迪斯尼动画《小美人鱼》Ariel 的配音、配唱者。
配乐、歌曲都仍是由 Randy Newman 负责,由 Sarah McLachlan 演唱 When She Loved Me ,由 Riders in the Sky 团体演唱 Woody s Roundup ,另外还有由 Robert Goulet 演唱新版的 You ve Got a Friend in Me ,电影原声带中还有收录由 Tom Scott 爵士演奏版的 You ve Got a Friend in Me 。
花絮:
原本此片只预定直接以录像带方式发行,直到1998年才确定重登大银幕。
