So chocolate_chip and I went to see Toy Story 3 last Saturday. Highly recommended! Afterward I saw this little tidbit on the Wikipedia page:
"Pixar designed a commercial for a toy, Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear, and formatted it to look like it came from an old VCR recording. The recording was altered with distorted sound, noise along the bottom of the screen, and flickering video, all designed to make it look like a converted recording from around 1983.[22] A Japanese version of the commercial was also released online.[23]"
Prepare to have your memories rewritten, these fake commercials are that good!
WARNING: While the commercials are spoiler-free, the YouTube comments contain MASSIVE SPOILERS so don't load the YouTube page or read them if you haven't seen the movie yet.
