				You beat me to this, I was going to post this. I saw the commercial just before I went into work this evening. It should be a good show.

				Even though its a plug for WALL-E (at least I think it is), it l sounds like something I would enjoy.

				No Finding Nemo?

.
I see the Princess cakes on YouTube and they"re were really good (In the summer I saw it).

				There might be a Finding Nemo cake, I'm not sure. Every time I see the commercial I just catch a clip of it, so there might still be a Nemo cake. We'll have to tune in and see.

				I hope that there will be a Finding Nemo cake 

 I also don't see why not making one,Finding Nemo is one of Pixar's icon films.
I"m kinda surprised to see A Bug's Life cake,it's pretty underrated film.

				My friend just sent me a message- we're in this Food Network special!!!  We did the filming for promo stuff for Toy Story Mania, and she said that they used a clip that we're in!  She said we're in this special about 3 minutes and 50 seconds in!  It'll air again Wed. at 9pm and Thurs. at midnight. 
Make sure to watch for me!!!  I missed it last night so I need to watch it!!!  

  I'm so excited!

				That's very neat 

 how does Toy Story Mania looks? it's like those Snow White,Peter Pan or Pinocchio rides?.
Anyway then I guess there will be a Toy Story cake? (Or not necessarily?).

				Now I'm glad I didn't delete that! I think I saw you. I'm not sure, but I think so!
Anyway, there was a Toy Story cake, ariels'prince. 
SPOLIERS:
 It's too bad the Monsters, INC. one collapsed. It's my favorite Pixar movie, and I thought it was very creative. In the end, I thought it could have been a second place or first place winner had it not fallen.

				Really? what cakes they made? there was a Finding Nemo one?.
Oh,but I guess it was expected (After all it's one of their icon films).

				There was a Finding Nemo cake, a Bugs Life cake, a Toy Story cake, and a Monsters, INC. cake. I believe that's it.
I was fairly surprised there wasn't one based on a more recent movie(CARS!*), but makes sense because they had to incorporate the movie AND it's theme park attraction. 
* I'm no Cars fan, but Cars is so over-rated, it just seemed there'd be a Cars cake.

				I"m really glad that there's a Finding Nemo cake 

.
The theme park is really importent? (Thought the Princess one ended in one of the parks with Snow White,Cinderella,Jasmine and Ariel with them).
Anyway,I agree about Cars,it's strange that A Bug's Life,the most underrated Pixar movie,got a cake but Cars and Ratatouille or even The Incredibles didn't and I think that Cars is the most overrated Pixar movie.
But maybe it's good to see that A Bug's Life got attention because it's so underrated.

				The films had to have theme park attractions based on them, so that must have restricted their choices. It's intresting to think that half of the Pixar movies have an attraction based on them. I never noticed it before, actually.

				I saw the special last night and I liked it. I was surprised to see someone from Michigan in the competition.
SPOILERS AHEAD!
I was happy to see the woman from Michigan win, She truly deserved it I also felt bad for the team who worked hard on the Monsters Inc cake and had to see it collapse.
