Pixar’s The Movie Vanishes, How Toy Story 2 Was Nearly Lost

http://youtu.be/EL_g0tyaIeE

In the 2010 animated short titled Studio Stories: The Movie Vanishes, we learn from Pixar’s Oren Jacob and Galyn Susman how a big chunk of Toy Story 2 movie files were nearly lost due to the accidental use of a Linux rm command (and a poor backup system). This short was included on the Toy Story 2 DVD extras.

Coincidentally, Oren Jacob was on my flight to SXSW where the flight attendants concocted recipes from galley food.
