Peter Sciretta takes aim at the new Toy Story 3 trailer and dissects it for easter eggs and cameos, and finds an astonishing number in just the trailer! I can’t imagine what he’ll find when the full movie comes out.
The new trailer for Toy Story 3 hit the web yesterday. If you haven’t watched it yet, watch it now here! As you probably know, I’m an obsessive Pixar fanatic and love finding all of the little easter eggs that the animators/designers hide in the films. In the past we’ve taken a look at the easter eggs in Pete Docter’s Up, Andrew Stanton’s WALL-E and Brad Bird’s Ratatouille. So I thought we’d take a look at the new trailer and see what easter eggs we could find (with the help of director Lee Unkrich).
From major players in previous movies (Lighting McQueen, Totoro, Ray the Science Stingray) making appearances to previous bit-players getting mainstream attention (Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear), there are dozens of little inside jokes and tributes to Pixar Fans.
I think the trailer showed more than it should… I get the feeling I basically know the whole movie, or close to it… but I’ll probably still watch it like I did with “Up”.
