Toy Story 3 cast talks movie.

Van McNeil — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 17:55:48 +0000

Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen) and the whole gang are back on the big screen as Andy prepares to depart for college and his loyal toys find themselves in… day care! These untamed tots with their sticky little fingers do not play nice, so it’s all for one and one for all as plans for the great escape get underway. A few new faces—some plastic, some plush—join the adventure, including iconic swinging bachelor and Barbie’s counterpart Ken (Micahel Keaton), a thespian hedgehog named Mr. Pricklepants (Timothy Dalton) and a pink, strawberry-scented teddy bear called Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear (Ned Beatty). Toy Story 3, opens Friday and is rated G.

Funny Oscar tweets

I loved following the celebrities during the Oscars – it makes me feel like I’m sitting there watching it live inside the Kodak Theater.

Here are some of my funniest Oscar tweets.

_”Shhhh. I’m live tweeting from directly under Sandra Bullocks chair.” — Rainn Wilson (rainnwilson), actor.

_”Charlize Theron would like to thank R. Crumb and my 16-year-old id for designing her outfit tonight.” — David Itzkoff (ditzkoff), New York Times reporter.

_”Just got lost for a minute, sorry. Where was I? Oh yeah … Zach Effron’s (Zac Efron) eyes!” — Rob Corddry (robcorddr), comedian.

_”Oscars Fun Fact — Samuel L. Jackson spends 40 percent of his yearly income on Kangol hats …” — Eric Stangel (EricStangel), “Late Show With David Letterman” writer-producer.

_”Oh, Sam Worthington, your glasses make me think you’re imperfect and therefore accessible.” — Mindy Kaling (mindykaling), actor-writer.

_”Oprah’s about to tell everyone in the audience there’s an Oscar under their seat.” — Foster Kamer (weareyourfek), blogger.

_”James Cameron is going into his own hurt locker right now.” — Paul Scheer (paulscheer), comedian.
