Oh man. This might be the first Pixar movie I'm genuinely excited for since, well, Toy Story 2.
I would be skeptical, and, in a way, I can say I'm not terribly excited about the prospect of turning a fine, two-film franichise into a trilogy, but . . . this is fuckin' Pixar we're talking about. Their name is more trustworthy than Jesus, and, more often than He, they deliver.
It will be awesome.Quoting Sycophant (view post)

so i wonder, was it in production for a while and just being announced? or they are now about to start making it?

It's been in production for a very long while. They had a Superbowl ad, remember?

Oh man, this better be a very very good movie, or I will only have the two first movies to love.

Why are the first two films the only two Pixar movies no longer in print on DVD?
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Because it's Disney.Quoting megladon8 (view post)

OK, but the other Disney/Pixar collabs are available.
So why these two?

Disney always lets their movies go out of print so they can force people to buy special editions a few years down the line. With Toy Story 3 coming out next year, no doubt they're working on a super Collector's Special Limited Extra Bluray editions of the first two (from the Disney vaults!), and they don't want people to have the option of getting the previous releases.Quoting megladon8 (view post)

I wonder who's gonna voice Slink.
They went back into the vault, so then later Disney can re-release them to much fanfare and make a ton of money before sending them back to the vault again.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
It's a shrewd business move that pays off very well for them.
I thought Lasseter was going to put a stop on the vault thing?
Anyway, Amazon is your best friend. I bought Sleeping Beauty Blu-Ray for 9 bucks today.

I haven't watched the preview, but I read about the story and absolutely love the idea of it.
I thought so as well.Quoting Watashi (view post)
Anyhow, that teaser is cute. Woody and Buzz are good characters, and Hanks and Allan do great jobs with the voices.
A majority of the reason I adore Pixar is their ability to create imaginative, yet meticulously detailed, universes. As much as I enjoy Toy Story 2, I would rather experience a film that swept me into a clever, inventive world--not one that is laying a story over an already-twice-played template.
Here's to hoping, rather begrudgingly, they take the characters in a very new direction.
I'm writing for Slant Magazine now, so check out my list of reviews.
Hopefully I'll have the energy to update my signature soon.
Not interested in Pixar doing sequels. Particularly not for Toy Story.

From what I've heard, the kid who has owned the toys has grown up, he's moving to college, and the toys are all but put away. "Retired." There's also a recall of older toys I believe.Quoting Qrazy (view post)
Didn't Brave Little Toaster do this basic premise already?

They aren't put away or recalled. They're basically not loved anymore and dumped to a local daycare center. Remember Toy Story 2? The whole conflict with Jessie and Woody was that one day Andy is going to dump Woody just like Jessie's owner did. They ended on a happy note when Andy's sister takes in Jessie, but there was always that bittersweet feeling that Jessie's right. This movie is going to prove that.
Now they're dealing with random new kids and don't have that one-kid attachment anymore. I have enough faith in Pixar that they're going to deal with the type of kids left in daycare. Some of them probably in a broken home. I'm excited to see where they'll take it.

The teaser made me smile.
Yeah, I'm excited for this. I'm sure it won't disappoint.
