Walt Disney made the announcement today at ShoWest that they would be re-releasing both ‘Toy Story’ and ‘Toy Story 2′ (both in 3D) together on October 2nd.Ă‚   This will also be the debut of the trailer for ‘Toy Story 3′, which is set for a June 18th, 2010 release.

Here is the official announcement:

Moviegoers are in for twice the fun and triple the thrills as The Walt Disney Studios prepares to debut the Disney Digital 3D(TM) versions of Disney-Pixar’s beloved animated features – “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2″ – during a special limited engagement starting on October 2, 2009, it was announced today by Mark Zoradi, president, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Group.

This extraordinary double feature, taking the latest advances in digital 3D technology “to infinity and beyond,” will play exclusively in 3D. “Toy Story,” the industry’s first ever computer-animated feature and the first feature released by Pixar Animation Studios in 1995, and “Toy Story 2,” the critically acclaimed sequel that debuted in 1999, were both directed by Academy AwardĂ‚ ®-winning filmmaker John Lasseter. Both films have been meticulously re-rendered in 3D from the original digital files using the latest state-of-the-art technology.

Commenting on the announcement, Zoradi said, “This fantastic double feature will let moviegoers see two of their all-time favorite films from Pixar Animation Studios in a way that they’ve never seen them before, and all for the price of one movie ticket. John Lasseter and the animation team have truly created a spectacular 3D experience with Buzz, Woody, and all the toy characters in a whole new eye-popping dimension. We’re also excited that audiences will soon see a whole new chapter when Toy Story 3 in 3D, directed by Lee Unkrich (co-director of Toy Story 2) comes to theaters on June 18, 2010.”

Lasseter added, “The ‘Toy Story’ films and characters will always hold a very special place in our hearts and we’re so excited to be bringing these first two films back for audiences to enjoy in a whole new way thanks to the latest in 3D technology. Disney Digital 3D offers lots of great new possibilities for the art of animation and we will continue to use this new technology to push the boundaries in telling our stories. With ‘Toy Story 3′ shaping up to be another great adventure for Buzz, Woody and the gang from Andy’s room, we thought this would be the perfect way to let audiences experience the first two films all over again. To see the movies back to back will be an amazing treat as well. This is certainly nostalgic for me and reminiscent of my youth when double features were the norm.”

Originally released by Walt Disney Pictures in 1995, “Toy Story” went on to receive OscarĂ‚ ® nominations for Original Screenplay, Original Score, and Original Song earning Lasseter a Special Achievement Award “for his inspired leadership of the Pixar ‘Toy Story’ Team, resulting in the first feature-length computer-animated film.” ‘Toy Story 2′ was released in 1999, and reunited voice talents Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, in their roles as Woody and Buzz. The film became one of the most popular animated features of all time, and received an Academy AwardĂ‚ ® nomination for Original Song.

  1. Sounds pretty cool, I remember seeing these movies growing up, still enjoy them. Don’t think I will fork over the money just to see them in 3D, but cool for those who will.

  2. The Toy Story 3d trailers are going to be like. Well let me tell you that the movie is being so awesomely produced that right now it is rare to see some of those movie trailers right now. because toy story is supposed to be the top movie in 2010. If you are aware that the special agent goup circle 7 making toy story 3 already said that it will be the best toystory3 movie ever. So i believe the movie trailer will be worth a look. I am excited about looking at thye toystory3 trailers because i’ll know whats in store for the citizens of the world. Im hoping that i can get to see one of the movie trailers before everyone else.

  3. All I want 2 know is if you'll be able to buy the 3d versions after there finished in the cinema…..

  4. Thanks for discussing your ideas. The first thing is that individuals have a solution between federal student loan as well as a private education loan where it can be easier to select student loan debt consolidation than over the federal student loan.

    One important thing is that while you are searching for a student loan you may find that you will need a cosigner. There are many circumstances where this is true because you might discover that you do not possess a past credit rating so the mortgage lender will require that you have someone cosign the loan for you. Interesting post.

    Many thanks for this article. I might also like to talk about the fact that it can always be hard if you find yourself in school and just starting out to establish a long history of credit. There are many learners who are only trying to endure and have a good or beneficial credit history is often a difficult matter to have.

    I have learned a few important things through your post. I’d personally also like to say that there may be situation where you will apply for a loan and never need a co-signer such as a Fed Student Aid Loan. But if you are getting a loan through a traditional loan service then you need to be ready to have a co-signer ready to assist you. The lenders may base that decision over a few issues but the biggest will be your credit history. There are some loan merchants that will additionally look at your work history and decide based on this but in many instances it will depend on your ranking.

    One other issue is when you are in a scenario where you do not have a co-signer then you may genuinely wish to try to make use of all of your money for college options. You will discover many grants or loans and other grants that will supply you with finances to help with school expenses. Thanks a lot for the post.
