Toy Story Fangirl

On Tuesday, November 3, Toy Story That Time Forgot will be released on Blu-Ray and DVD, and I can’t wait!  Of course I’ll be running out as early as I can to buy it, just like I did with Toy Story of TERROR! last year.  A new Pixar Blu-ray is definitely something to look forward to, because they never fail to give us a wealth of behind-the-scenes treasures.

I’ve actually managed to find some of the bonus material  for Toy Story That Time Forgot online, ahead of its release.  Here are the deleted scenes, without the commentary:

And the epic Battlesaurs’ television show opener:

I love Buzz tricking the dinos with his laser:

And Rex… oh, Rex:

But this one is probably my favorite, for the cheesy factor of it alone:

Okay, can we have a love song between Buzz and Jessie now, pretty please?  Or at least some blatant sappiness?  C’mon, these are dinosaurs, and they’re human toys!  But I digress… back to Toy Story That Time Forgot…

These aren’t the only bonus features that will be on the Blu-ray.  There’s plenty more to be seen when you purchase it this coming week, not to mention getting to watch the special in “glorious” HD.  Here’s a rundown of what all’s included:
