We weren’t expecting the new Toy Story 3 trailer till Monday but it appears to have escaped early. In the film Andy is now a young adult who is heading off to college, which means his toys are sent to storage, apart from Woody who he wants to keep. However, Buzz and the gang are accidentally thrown away and end up at local day-care center where they are abused by the youngsters. It’s left to Woody to save them and help them escape.

Disney/Pixar have released two new posters for Toy Story 3 featuring Rex the dinosaur and Hamm the pig. One appeared on Myspace and the other on /Film.

The second trailer for Toy Story 3 will appear online on Monday, although if you go to a certain video website you can probably see a bootlegged version early.

Toy Story 3 trailer arrives!

We got the preview yesterday and today we have the real thing in HD! I like how they include most of the characters, and that they haven’t changed one bit since we last saw them a decade ago. However, I want to know where Bo Peep and her sheep are. They seem to to be the only ones missing. Anyway, here’s the teaser!

Entertainment Tonight showed a preview of the teaser trailer for Toy Story 3 and thankfully someone managed to record it and upload it onto Youtube for all to see. Apparently the teaser trailer is only playing on digital and 3D screenings of Up, and as of now there’s no word on when it will appear online.

Tom Hanks agreed to do Toy Story 3 after watching it

A few days ago we heard that Disney had shown the Toy Story 3 teaser trailer to a group of luck people, however that’s nothing compared to what Tom Hanks has seen. He’s seen the whole thing! (Kinda)

From Empire:

“They did an interesting thing on this one. They did not send us a script. They showed us a complete story reel of the entire movie, with storyboards moving from one to the next, and the people up at Pixar recorded some voices with some music and sound effects. Tim Allen and John Ratzenberger and I went in a movie theatre, watched the reel and said, ‘This is great, let’s get to work!’”
“I have been in and done three big complete recording sessions and will probably have at least one more to do, possibly in about eight months,” said Hanks of his Toy Story 3 work. “Then eight months after that I’ll do a mop-up and have three more sessions after that. Those movies are beasts.

A select group of humans have seen the Toy Story 3 teaser trailer

According to Variety Disney revealed some Toy Story 3 footage at the Digital Cinema Summit.

Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture Group prexy offered up the first-ever public screening of the teaser trailer for “Toy Story 3.” Custom-animated short shows Woody supervising the Toy Story characters as they improvise a sign for the pic, only to have Buzz upstage them all with a high-tech version.
The Mouse House will re-release 3-D versions of “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2″ in a double feature. “Toy Story 3″ bows June 18, 2010.

Apparently Disney will be revealing the Toy Story 3 teaser to everyone else when the first two Toy Story movies are re-released in October (which makes sense marketing-wise).

Brad Bird gives update on Toy Story 3

Brad Bird, director of The Incredibles and Ratatouille, spoke to MTV and gave an update on Toy Story 3. The good news is that they should be starting on it soon, after the team have finished with Up!

“It’s about ready to go into production. They’re just about finished with “Up!” and then the animators will regain their senses for a few weeks.” Though I pressed him for more details, Brad only laughed. “You’re trying to trick me! There are some new characters, yes. It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

He also spoke briefly about his first live-action film 1906.

“The best way to sum up ["1906"],” says Bird, “would be that it’s a romantic, epic, mystery with lots of action in it, based around events leading up to and through the earthquake in San Francisco in 1906.”

Coolness: The Future Of Movie Posters?

Liam — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 15:42:50 +0000

Over the next few years we will be having a surge in 3D moves. We have Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Avatar, Alice in Wonderland, Toy Story 3, Monsters vs. Aliens and movies such as Iron Man 2 and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince are expected to have 3D in parts. So with all of this 3D goodness going around, you’d expect to see something a bit special with the marketing. A 3D poster perhaps?

Below is a video that presents real footage of twelve limited edition RabbitHole 3D Motion Holograms. The pieces are printed in the amazing form of RabbitHoles state-of-the-art digital motion holograms, which display 1280 frames of full-color, 3D imagery with up to ten seconds of fluid and seamless animation on a completely flat surface. At the moment these are being used for art, however I wouldn’t be too surprised if we start getting movie posters like this in the future.

According to Marketsaw Avatar director James Cameron has expressed interest in this company’s technology in the past, so we could very well be looking at what he will be using for the promotion of Avatar when the time comes.

Michael Keaton In Toy Story 3

Liam — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 20:20:25 +0000

Michael Keaton has joined the cast of Toy Story 3, and will play Ken (as in Barbie’s boyfriend Ken). Jodi Benson also told IESB that she will be back to voice Barbi, although the two dolls will not kiss during the film, but they will embrace. (I also suspect Ken will get a sneaky squeeze)

Andrew Stanton (Finding Nemo, Wall-E) wrote the treatment and Michael Arndt (Little Miss Sunshine) wrote the screenplay. Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Wallace Shawn, Don Rickles, Estelle Harris, John Ratzenberger, and Jodi Benson are all confirmed to return and the movie will be released in 3D June 2010.

Toy Story 3 Poster

Liam — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 23:41:10 +0000

A new poster for Toy Story 3 has appeared online over at OutNow. This is the second one we have got (the first one can be seen here), yet the movie won’t be released for another 2 years, so I guess we can call this a very early teaser poster. Although, the good news is that Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack and John Ratzenberger will all be back to lend their voices to their toy characters.

Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. Meanwhile, Hamm, Rex and Mr. Potato Head begin a quest to find their long lost twin brothers.
