Distribution

Is Toy Story 3 going to be a theatrical film or direct-to-video like a lot of sequels?

Most likely it'll be released in cinemas first since it is a popular title. -- Thorpe ^talk 12:05, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Irreverent testament

Can someone find a way to rephrase this?

...many feel Toy Story 3, and an inevitable replacement for the voice of Slinky Dog, to be an irreverent testament to the former comedian...

If I knew what the hell an "irreverent testament" was, I'd reword it myself. --P3d0 16:01, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Tom Hanks

Is Tom Hanks going to be the voice of Woody in this film? Scorpionman 03:44, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know...Can someone who knows please let us know? 4.158.210.233 01:24, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could you also answer the same question for Tim Allen with Buzz!? — Hurricane Devon ( Talk ) 21:47, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Most likely they will. It's the case with John Ratzenberger, who will be sure to voice Hamm now that Pixar are involved. I think that Hanks and Allen will return for Woody and Buzz, and I believe that Jim Cummings will voice Slinky Dog (speculation). Jienum

Under new management

Now that Disney and Pixar are one, will Disney or Pixar or both be working on this movie?

This film has been cancelled, but the creators of Toy Story and Toy Story 2 could decide to make another sequel in future. I personally think this is good news, since this movie would have potentially killed the series. Mushroom 14:35, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wish Toy Story 3 comes soon!

Image removal

I removed the image as the idea of a buzz lightyear recall has been officially scrapped by both Disney and Pixar making the outdated picture irrelevent. Dark jedi requiem 19:06, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cool image though, and I'm glad it's been moved down to the original plot section. That stuff's historical.

Release?

Isn't 2008 the year Disney was planning on releasing Toy Story 3?? The fact that Production has been transfered Pixar means this date can no longer be official, unless Pixar has mentioned a date, which I doubt -- Remember Lasster saying, "We're not talking about Toy Story 3 yet. Sorry!"

That is true. Now it says TBA instead of speculation.Dark jedi requiem 16:51, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Patrick Warburton

Is there anything resembling a source for the Patrick Warburton blurb, or should it just be deleted now? --JT706 16:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

starring

If you add actors, cite sources. Dark jedi requiem 07:40, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder

I wonder is the anymore to this film. That looks like a great film. When it comes out. --Philip1992 16:56, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Philip1992[reply]

W A L E

What kind of film is W A L E that this article mentions?? Georgia guy 13:30, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Previous Plot

The improved storyline will feature a trip to a stripclub, to rescue Buzz from a crazy hooker.

Err...what?

Aah, if only all vandalism was BJAODN worthy. --Sonic Mew 22:35, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To the Theatres!

For a movie starring both Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, I highly doubt this will be a straight-to-video release. 24.23.51.27 19:58, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You never know... Pixar and Disney had a serious conflict over releasing Toy Story 2 to theaters, didn't they? We're not really sure of anything at the moment. Kochdude388 20:01, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

August 6, 2008?

Where is this confirmed? GKMorse 03:00, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

it's not jj 03:27, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

are we sure?

the Variety article says "In addition to confirming for the first time that a third "Toy Story" is in the works, most likely for 2009 release, Lasseter said Lee Unkrich will helm it." Is "most likely" the same as "definitely"? SpikeJones 12:34, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I interpret that as "We're currently running on a schedule with a release date in 2009, but it's not set in stone and we might change it". Remember, Cars was scheduled to be released in November 2005 for a long time. Until we hear information which contradicts it, 2009 should be alright. RMS Oceanic 21:17, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Something additional you could do is state both in the lead paragraph and the Infobox Film template is to mention "tentative". For example, "2009 (tenative)" in the template, and "Toy Story 3 has a tentative release date for 2009." That would illustrate the information we have accurately. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 21:22, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, great! Junk!

Someone has vandalised the article by naming a heading "U SUCK". I will delete this vandalism, but is there anything else we can do about it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ANNAfoxlover (talk • contribs) 19:57, February 12, 2007 (UTC)

I've fixed the problem. If the vandalism becomes persistent, then page protection can be requested. I'll keep my eye on the article to see if there are any future cases of vandalism. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 23:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Searching for 74.38.12.109!

74.38.12.109, if you're here, may I ask you a question regarding this article? Thank you. Please sign your name with ~~~~. Thank you. 74.38.12.109, please respond. Thank you. ANNAfoxlover 00:00, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The user only made one edit, according to his contribution history, so he/she was probably a passing visitor. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 00:01, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But he/she vandalised the article! ;-( —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.210.200.212 (talk) 15:16, 13 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Other plot?

I heard that at Disney World, they were saying there was a different plot: Andy's mom gets re-married and soon Andy has a step-sister. The toys have to put up with girl toys. 75.63.66.186 22:29, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, unless you can provide solid evidence, we can't mention anything about that on the page. Rusty5 01:14, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spoiler tag?

Does anyone else think there should be a spoiler tag before the plot section. I think it is highly likely that Pixar will indeed use the childcare centre plot and it's not good to give that away without a warning... --211.26.114.76 02:21, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nah. A•N•N•Afoxlov e r hello! 20:37, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pixar creates all films inhouse. jj 21:07, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It would be nice if you would care to explain why you don't think a spoiler tag should be in place.

I'm not sure what that has to do with what I was saying. The child care centre plot came directly from John Lasseter/Pixar themselves. The idea was talked about during a DVD commentary- that's how we know about it. --58.179.224.128 08:19, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The commentary to which film? Be as verifiable as possible. WikiNew 09:55, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The DVD commentary on the Ultimate Toy Box DVD set. I'm guessing they mention it on the commentary for Toy Story, or Toy Story 2. --211.26.60.151 00:28, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please give the section name and timestamp of the comment. Otherwise, we have to treat this as completely unverifable.SpikeJones 03:35, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Characters not appearing

It's more than obvious the Slinky Dog, Lenny theBinoculars, and Wheezy the Penguin won't appear on account that their respective voice actors Jim Varney and Joe Ranft passed away. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.244.187.122 (talk) 17:15, 15 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Just because the voice actors died doesn't necessarily mean they'll be written out. Chances are, out of respect, Joe Ranft's roles will be cut (after all, they were pretty minor to begin with). However, I'd expect that they'd find a new voice for Slinky. Rusty5 17:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do not use Wikipedia as a forum. Alientraveller 17:38, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We're not trying to. I'm rather clarifying that, although it's uncertain whether the mentioned characters will be in the film, we shouldn't just erase the possibilities and mention in the article that they won't appear (which might have been the original poster's idea). I suggest we now close this section. Rusty5 00:47, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No. Mention the characters as they are officially announced. If and when we confirm from reliable outside parties that specific characters are not in the film due to various actors' deaths, then it may deserve a passing mention. WP:NOT a crystal ball. SpikeJones 03:35, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Toy Story 3: Prospector's Revenge

Someone changed the title of the Toy Story 3 article to this. Is this confirmed somwhere because i doubt Toy Story 3 will have a second name. Martini833 23:38, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
