Maybe Buzz gets dipped in dip, but because he's CGI, he doesn't dissolve away, though it gets into his system and he becomes deluded Buzz again.

I also look forward to seeing Roger handcuff himself to Potato Head in an effort to be funny.

Potato head would probably just pull the arm off, give Roger a blank stare, and then ignore him, though. Poor Roger.

lmao So funny...thanks, Margos!

DISNEY ON ICE PRESENTS DISNEY/PIXAR’S ‘TOY STORY 3′ ON ICE USING STATE-OF-THE-ART PROJECTION

I saw the 3D version for all 3 movies(who said it was just Avatar that started the trend?). The 3D enhances the experience, but not in a way that takes you out of the movie. Pixar's 3D philosophy is like lighting-have it draw you further in.

And I'm sentimental too. I just dont remember when I saw the first one 2D. Like, I KNOW I'm seeing the final Harry Potter movies on the ULTRAscreen in 2D before seeing them IMAX 3D or something-though I love IMAX.

I plan on seeing Toy Story 3 this Thursday with my family (I just hope I do not miss the first showing due to the lines for Eclipse and The Last Airbender.

I really, really, *really* want to find out who made the decision to only release Toy Story 3 in 2D in the Dutch dubbed version! I wanna strangle him to death. Then I want to bring him back alive. Then strangle him again.

Personally, I avoid 3D . It's not that amazing anyway. "Wow, more depth". Big deal. I'm over it already.

You heard it here, folks! I too, cried similar babies at all of the handsome moments. Object uncastrated period, indeed. Chew on that, "Shrek the Bag."

OMG, thank you so much for that post. I am literally wiping tears from my eyes from laughing so hard. I needed that today.

Good point! I didn't even think of this, since i't's not an issue to me, but it is an issue for a lot of people. It's just not fair to force them to only see the 3D version.

I guess I will cave soon and watch it in 3D in cinemas. I just can't wait until it comes on dvd.

I just used the movie money from the BDs to get into the 3D version for a 2D price.

I got to see this Saturday. Lucky me I got to see this in 2D at a midnight showing with no kids in the audience. I really loved Lots-o, Ken, Big Baby, and Monkey with Cymbals. I only wished the garbage collector that tied lots-o to the truck was an adult Daisy. I wonder if Andy knew how valuable his Woody doll is? I'm sure he could have paid his college tuition and bought a brand new car with the money he would have gotten for woody.

There’s Lotso great stories to be found in “The Art of Toy Story 3”

Finally saw it this afternoon, and wow. Just wow.
This movie had me at the opening. Hell, it had me at the short before the movie. Night and Day had a brilliant concept, and a brilliant execution.

There are so many great things about this movie, and yet I can't seem to type them all. Let's see, you want action? It's here. You want comedy? It's here? You want many heartwarming moments? (if you can handle those, I have to say that I cried a couple of times) They're here. You want a third movie being better than the first two? (doing almost the impossible) This is that movie.
The only small gripe I can think of is maybe that there are probably too much characters, and even while I'm typing this I'm wondering whether that's a bad thing. I don't think it will become a problem on future viewings.
For anyone who hasn't seen it, go see it. For anyone who knows people who don't want to see it, for the love of god, hogtie them, or something and take them to this movie.

Just got back from seeing Toy Story 3 and I thought it was a great way to end the trilogy (hopefully). Sure, it may not have been as good as the first two (which was to be expected with most sequels) but was still very enjoyable. I liked all the references to Toy Story 1 and 2. I also liked how they made the decision to move forward in time (Instead of finding another kid to play Andy).

The setting at Sunnyside was also a good decision and the idea of trying to escape from it made the movie seem darker than the first two.

I did think the climax with Lotso and the toys at the incinerator was a little cliche and predictable. I had a feeling the aliens would save them somehow

END SPOILERS END SPOILERS END SPOILERS

There were also a few jokes I could've done without (such as the Lincoln Logs gag), but nothing really major.

Overall, I give the movie a 9 out of 10

The short, Day and Night was probably one of the weakest shorts the company has produced. It was an interesting idea, just not fully realized that well.

Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. I chose to see the movie in 2D since the 3D with Up was disappointing.

Actually, they did, for the opening montage. Sounded close enough not to bother me though.

I caved and went to see Toy Story 3 in 3D.... And boy, am I glad I did!

The way I thought of movies in 3D was the way it probably was like 15 years ago; the kind you could see in theme parks: images 'coming out' of the screen and floating around you, like you could almost touch them. You know, the crappy kind of 3D. I thought this would be just like that and that it would ruïn Toy Story. But it's not at all like that. It's very subtle and after a while you hardly realize you're watching it in 3D anymore. I still think this movie didn't need it, but it didn't harm it either.

I didn't know there would be a short before the movie, but I absolutely loved 'Day and Night'. Very funny and very charming and most of all, so totally original. Leave it up to Pixar to come up with something like this.

With this sequel, Toy Story got the best send-of the fans could wish for. Funny how you can get emotional from a bunch of animated plastic toys... But Pixar turns them into characters you deeply care about, and you want them to be okay. And when it looked like they wouldn't, I had to swallow a few times.

When the characters were moving to the firepit, I really thought this film wouldn't have a happy end. Of course I knew this was a Disney/Pixar film and they always have happy ends, but this time I couldn't think of one way how the characters could escape. Then I saw them give up and take each others' hands and close their eyes... That was a tough moment. It really showed their friendship, like the film did at a lot of points. That's why I didn't want them to get broken up. And it showed Pixar's guts. Disney would never dare to make a scene as frightening and emotional like that.

I loved the happy ending and the new future for Woody, Buzz, Jessie and all of them. Andy had to leave his childhood behind (roughly 8 years too late, considering he was already 9 in 1995) at the same time a big part of the audience (those who saw the first Toy Story when they were Andy's age) has already been through college and is now about to leave college time behind and start yet another new phase of their lives. I know I am, and that's why this post has become so shamelessly melancholic.

That's pretty much how I've felt about the 3D.

I just back from my fourth viewing and, damn, the ending still makes me bawl like a baby!

That's Pixar's 3D philosophy-make it subtle like lighting and sound.
