Another Classic 'Great Escape' Poster for Pixar's Toy Story 3!

With the summer movie season only a week away from kicking off, everyone should be getting pretty excited by now. One of the highlights, arriving in June, is obviously Pixar's Toy Story 3. Although I've seen it and didn't love it as much as Pixar's other recent movies, I love this poster, it's one of my favorite designs along with the other official final Toy Story 3 poster. This is obviously inspired by the 1963 Steve McQueen WWII classic The Great Escape, and the poster designs are even somewhat similar. Thanks to Empire for debuting this new poster, as it's international so you probably won't see it up at any of your local theaters. Have fun!

Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are all dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, and John Ratzenberger will all be back.

Toy Story 3 is being directed by Lee Unkrich, another one of Pixar's creative masterminds who previously co-directed Toy Story 2, Monsters, Inc., and Finding Nemo. The screenplay was written by Michael Arndt, the Oscar winning screenwriter of Little Miss Sunshine who is a newcomer to the Pixar family. Disney will be bringing Pixar's Toy Story 3 to theaters everywhere in both 2D & 3D starting on June 18th in summer.

Love it. Aliens are still my favorite character I think. Although that stretchy octopus seems fun, but isn't it just Slinky Dog made out of Jelly? Ha.

Interesting how all of the "older" more recognizable characters are in the front...

I have to give credit to Pixar because, after the first release of Toy Story in 1995, fifteen years later they are on their third edition to this movie. I don't think it would ever be possible to end the Toy Story series since it seems that things are always coming up and changing. With this movie release sometime in June 2010, I can not wait to go and see it. Check out our movie website/blog at http://www.thescreendoor.org.

Shouldn't Woody be upfront? On a side note, every time I see Toy Story news on this site this Screen Door guy post the same thing.

In response to #6: Because those two films are Pixar's greatest financial successes. That said, great poster and I'm extremely excited for this movie.
