There Are Pixar Easter Eggs Hidden In Toy Story Land’s Google Street View Images

Pixar is known for the incredible quality of its films. It is almost as well known for the easter eggs that are hidden within its films. There are many hidden references to other Pixar films and characters, so much so that it has led to the creation of extravagant fan theories that connect every single Pixar film. A year after the opening of Toy Story Land, a group of what appear to be easter eggs have been found in an unlikely place – Google Street View images. [Read more…]

‘Toy Story 4’ Director Josh Cooley: The Trailers Haven’t Spoiled “Anything”

‘Toy Story 4’ Director Josh Cooley: The Trailers Haven’t Spoiled “Anything”

There is a fine balance that a marketing team must strike when promoting a film – build excitement among potential viewers without giving too much of the plot away. I would argue that the team that works on Pixar films is one of the best at maintaining that balance. It looks like Toy Story 4 may just continue that, as the director of the film essentially said that the trailers have given away practically nothing. [Read more…]

Pizza Planet Is Undergoing A Renovation At Disneyland – Will It Look More Like The ‘Toy Story’ Restaurant?

Ever since the first Toy Story arrived in theaters in 1995, many people (including myself) have been clamoring for Disney to build a real Pizza Planet that is modeled after its namesake from the film. Various Disney theme parks have delivered pizza restaurants with the Pizza Planet name, but these spaces did not come close to recreating their film counterpart, whether it came to the interior or the exterior. There is a chance Disney might be inching forward on this, though. [Read more…]

Watch: Final ‘Toy Story 4’ Trailer Reminds Us Why These Toys Made Us Cry

We are just one month away from the theatrical release of Toy Story 4. The last Toy Story film, released almost 10 years ago, placed a spotlight on Andy’s relationship with his toys, given that he hadn’t played with them in years and was off to college – the story ended in a bittersweet moment that made millions sob openly. Toy Story 4 is the first feature film with Bonnie as the toys’ new owner1, but it looks like the heart that made the first three films special hasn’t gone anywhere. [Read more…]

You Can Meet Bo Peep At Disney Parks And On Disney Cruise Line – Here’s Your First Look

Many times that a film from Walt Disney Animation Studios or Pixar makes its debut, you can meet characters from the film at various Disney Parks. After the release of Inside Out, Joy and Sadness became popular meet-and-greet characters. Since then, there have not been many new Pixar additions1. We have a major incoming character this year – Bo Peep from Toy Story 4. [Read more…]

Disney Takes A Cue From Pixar’s SparkShorts, Launches Its Own “Experimental” Series Of Shorts

The aim of Pixar’s SparkShorts program is to provide more opportunities for diverse stories to be told from a larger group of filmmakers. It launched recently to wide acclaim, with the promise of several more shorts that will debut on Disney+ after the service makes its debut.

‘Toy Story 4’ Will Go Existential And Tackle The Concept Of Consciousness

Within the first act of the original Toy Story, we see Andy playing with toys like Woody, Mr. Potato Head, and Rex. When Andy sets Woody down on his bed and walks away, we get our first look at Woody coming to life and truly existing. Many of the questions that have followed by viewers about the Toy Story universe have been related to the rules of how these toys come to life. Toy Story 4 is planning to tackle the idea of what makes a toy a toy and, oh yeah, tackle the concept of consciousness in the process. [Read more…]

‘Toy Story 4’ Merch Busts Into Disney Parks And Forky Is The Big Star

Whenever a Disney film makes its way into theaters, you can find merchandise for that movie across various stores, including Disney Stores and major chains such as Target and Walmart. It is easy to overlook the stores within Disney’s theme parks, though, which carry film merchandise in addition to the souvenirs and collectibles that tie into the attractions and lands found within the parks. Toy Story 4 has now invaded these stores – take a peek at the merch you can find while visiting them! [Read more…]

Pixar’s Upcoming Slate To Be Stacked With Original Films

By the time that Toy Story 3 made its way into theaters in 2010, Pixar had produced 11 feature films and only one franchise had seen any sequels (Toy Story 2 and the aforementioned third film). Including Toy Story 3, and up to Toy Story 4, out of the 11 last feature films that Pixar has made, six of them have been sequels1. It sounds like, though, that Pixar is on its way to a string of original films. [Read more…]

‘Inside Out’ Attraction Opening At Disneyland This Summer

When Pixar Pier opened in 2018, there were several attractions that had been re-themed to fit various Pixar films – California Screamin’ became the Incredicoaster and Mickey’s Fun Wheel turned into the Pixar Pal-A-Round. One area of Pixar Pier, though, remained unfinished. The Inside Out neighborhood awaited its attraction, which was not set to open until this year. We now have a timeframe on when it will debut – this summer! [Read more…]
