Toy Story is arguably one of the best examples of 3D animation ever made, which is suprising since this was also the first 3D animated movie. The movement of the characters is very well done and is different to suit the different anatomy of each unique character. There is extreme attention to detail on each character and anything in the background. The scene above is a good example of the character animation as you can see that both characters move differently to work with both their anatomy and their own personality (like buzz always standing straight, unable to actually bend his back, and woody is much more expressive as he has more freedom to move around).
The 3D animation in this video starts at 1:30 the great thing about this video is that it wasn't made by a huge company like Dreamworks or Pixar, instead it was made by one person; Monty Oum. The detail in this video despite the fact that it was made by just one person is amazing, the actions of all the characters are precise and realistic, the fast pacing of the animation works perfectly well for the kind of animation it is.
Jimmy Neutron is one of those cartoons that did not age well animation wise. The character models look good from afar but up close they can look creepy. There isn't all that much to say about it but this series has pretty well done animation for the time and the TV budget they would have gotten to make it, which is probably why it doesn't hold up as well as Toy story does.
