Toy Story 3 opens today!
Beloved characters like Woody and Buzz return, joined by 14 other new toys—Big Baby, Bookworm (adorbz), Buttercup, Chatter Telephone, Chunk, Dolly, Ken, Lots-O'-Huggin'-Bear, Mr. Pricklepants, Peas-in-a-Pod (so cute), Sparks, Stretch, Trixie and Twitch (see them all here).

Preliminary reviews of the sequel are overwhelmingly positive, although many critics agree that the third installment of the Toy Story franchise doesn't quite live up to the first two. And typical of Pixar, Toy Story 3 contains its share of clever Easter Eggs, detailed here.

The Official Synopsis:
Toy Story 3 welcomes Woody (voice of Tom Hanks), Buzz (voice of Tim Allen) and the whole gang back to 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 (voice of Michael Keaton), a thespian hedgehog named Mr. Pricklepants (voice of Timothy Dalton) and a pink, strawberry-scented teddy bear called Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear (voice of Ned Beatty).
