- Wow. Some great FYC Oscar ads by the creative team at Disney-Pixar for Toy Story 3. They are attempting to evoke Oscar winners of years gone by and remind the voters of other sequels (Godfather 2, Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, etc.) that have won Oscar gold. They are hoping for a win in the Best Picture category. You can read more about the campaign at Deadline Hollywood, but you’ll see a couple of the great new ads above.
- 3D World Magazine has an engrossing interview with Teddy Newton. The conversation mostly revolves around Day & Night, but he does talk about a future project and a few other tidbits as well…
- There’s a video interview with Up producer Jonas Rivera over at SF State Gator Buzz. It’s worth a look.
- Toy Story 3 was the #1 selling Blu-ray and DVD for a second week in a row. I wonder if it can do again next week…
- Lastly, you’ve seen the Toy Story 3 finale mash up with Michael Giacchino’s unforgettable “Life and Death” score from Lost, right? It’s genius.
