Why It's So Special: Never accuse Pixar of resting on its laurels. Even in a threequel - so often in movies, more of a threat than a promise - the casting directors are continually set on surprising us.
Amongst the delights of Toy Story 3 is the off-the-wall idea of a lederhosen-wearing Shakespearian hedgehog... and the studio's innate sixth sense for the right voice led them to ex-007 Dalton, whose rich cadences are probably listed in a dictionary somewhere under 'thespian.'
Dalton speaks: "In regular movies, obviously there are really talented people who really care. Deep passion - we all care. But they're limited by time and budget and all sorts of things.
But this company seems to have been able to create committed excellence with the ability to really ensure that people get what they want."

One of the many things I love about Pixar is their avoidance of stunt casting, in order to get the best person for the role. Albert Brooks; Ellen DeGeneres; Ed Asner; Craig T Nelson; Patton Oswalt; Dave Foley; None of these would be the obvious Hollywood choices for the lead role in your big summer movie. But they are all perfect...

Don Rickels: of course, everything about Toy Story is amazing because of the genius timing, but still to this day, I call almost everyone an "uncultured swine". Of course, not about Picasso, but actually about movies since I became a movie buff. BTW, if you don't still absolutely love Toy Story even after you've turned 18, you're uncultured swine.
