Toy Story 3


Tom Hanks spoke to Empire about the next installment in the "Toy Story" franchise.
"Toy Story 3." You expected them to make it someday, didn't you?

"I have been in and done three big complete recording sessions and will probably have at least one more to do, possibly in about eight months," said Hanks of his "Toy Story 3" work. "Then eight months after that I'll do a mop-up and have three more sessions after that. Those movies are beasts.

"They did an interesting thing on this one. They did not send us a script. They showed us a complete story reel of the entire movie, with storyboards moving from one to the next, and the people up at Pixar recorded some voices with some music and sound effects. Tim Allen and John Ratzenberger and I went in a movie theatre, watched the reel and said, 'This is great, let's get to work!'"

So yes, "Toy Story 3" is under way and production seems to be so ahead that the scripts are animated storyboards. So that is kind of like watching a rough cut of the entire film.
Can't wait to see a trailer for this. It has been 11 years since "Toy Story 2." It is hard to imagine that.

More news to come! Catch ya' later!
