“Toy Story 3″ teaser shown with “Up”

On Wednesday night, I attended the packed Oklahoma City preview screening for the new Disney/Pixar film “Up.”

I have a bit of advice for seeing “Up,” which you definitely should plan to catch in theaters, preferably in 3-D. One tip would be to bring tissues, since the film made me and several others cry.

The other advice: Don’t be late. Not only are the first 10 minutes some of the most touching and visually stunning moments you’ll see at the movies this year, you won’t want to miss the highly anticipated return of Woody and Buzz.

As usual, Disney/Pixar are shipping prints of their new film with a teaser trailer for the upcoming feature. But their 2010 release won’t be just another great Pixar animated adventure. It will be the long-awaited “Toy Story 3.”

The 3-D adventure will be the long-awaited follow-up to 1995′s “Toy Story” (Pixar’s first feature and the first ever computer animated feature film) and 1999′s “Toy Story 2″ (the rare sequel that matches or even outdoes the grand original).

The teaser is just that, a quick peek into the next film, so it doesn’t offer too much information.

But it makes several impressions: Sheriff Woody (voice of Tom Hanks) and Space Ranger Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) are still trying to one-up each other. Jessie the yodeling cowgirl (Joan Cusack) and Bullseye the horse are still as action-packed as ever. Long-suffering Mr. Potato Head (Don Rickles) and squawky-voiced Mrs. Potato Head (Estelle Harris) remain married. Hamm the Piggy Bank (John Ratzenberger) and Rex the Dinosaur (Wallace Shawn) are still up to their hijinks in the trailer.

The teaser also features Slinky Dog, but he utters just a single word. That makes it impossible to ascertain what the Pixar masterminds have done about the wonderful character’s voice. Jim Varney, who brought the folksy toy to life in the first two “Toy Story” films, died of cancer in 2000.

I’ll try to remember to post the teaser when it inevitably reaches the Internet.

“Toy Story 3″ is set to open in theaters on June 18, 2010.
