As you've already heard by now, Disney bought Pixar for about $7.5 billion a few days ago, and now comes word that the first new move ... is to scrap the "Toy Story 3" project -- at least for now.
From the AP Wire comes the new tidbit: "One immediate sign of Lasseter's influence is that plans for Disney to make the long rumored sequel "Toy Story 3" on its own have been scrapped. If the film is made, it will be done by Lasseter and the other creators of the original film, the companies said."
As far as I can tell the original "Disney" plot was that Buzz gets recalled to Taiwan. Odd, interresting premise, but I am absolutely extatic that Disney will not tarnish the film by making a sequal themselves. I still don't like Pixar being owned by Disney, but as long as there's hope of creative control in Pixar, may Toys Story 3 rock under Pixar's might... not become a Disney Cheapqual.
