's case) to Toy Story and Cars. To be fair, we only got a taste, but at least we know a little more than what we did before. So on that note, let's go right to the big dog first, shall we?
Toy Story 3
Back in June, Elisabeth brought us the news that Pixar was looking to make a more a little more 'grown-up', but details about the flick were still being kept under lock and key. Today, though, the big news came when Lasseter showed a clip from the film with Andy all grown up and packing for college, while Woody and the gang headed for a storage container. The scene goes on to show Andy changing his mind and holding on to Woody, but unfortunately the rest of the toys aren't so lucky. Lasseter also gave a preview of the upcoming trailer that fleshes out the story a little more, and it looks like the action will center on Woody saving his friends from a local daycare center. Lasseter must have been in the 'sharing mood' because along with the clips and trailers, he confirmed that Timothy Dalton will be adding to the mix as a stuck-up hedgehog by the name of Mr. Pricklepants -- a name I will totally steal if I ever get a pet, but I digress.
After the jump: an update on Cars 2...
Cars 2
During the same London event, Lasseter went on to tell the press that in the sequel to the 2006 film, Lightning McQueen (voiced again by Owen Wilson) has entered a global Race of Champions with other cars from around the world. But, if you aren't a fan of Larry the Cable Guy, get ready for the bad news, because it sounds like the film is going to focus on the 1951 International Harvester in a case of mistaken identity with an Aston Martin by the name of Finn McMissile. According to Lasseter, the flick will be a "spy thriller" of sorts resulting in a showdown at Buckingham Palace. It might not be the most original story, but on the upside we might score a 'Bond' for a voice cameo.
