The Vacation Gals are happy to have this brand new contest giveaway related to the newest Pixar movie, Toy Story 3. At the premiere after party last weekend, guests were given Toy Story 3 swag bags, and while the SoCalKids are delighted to keep theirs, SoCalGuy and I are even happier to promote the film by giving ours to one of The Vacation Gals’ readers. The contest giveaway prize, straight from the lot behind El Capitan in Hollywood, contains:
- One Mr Potato Head
- One Mrs Potato Head
- Two slinkies that are emblazoned with the “Toy Story 3″ insignia
- Two Buzz Lightyear Lego keychains
- Some kind of Toy Story press-on tattoo facepaint thing.
Toy Story 3 is a great movie, almost perfect in every way. Gotta hand it to Pixar; those guys really know how to create crowd-pleasing films. Honestly; the swag bag should have included some Kleenex because there was barely a dry eye in the house by the time Toy Story 3 ended. Not that it’s a heartbreak — the movie is funny and sweet, and the climactic action scene is actually pretty scary. There’s more action in this iteration of Toy Story than in the previous two. I was speaking with two actors who voice characters in
Toy Story 3 after the premiere, and both said that THEY got a little teary watching the movie, even after having participated in making it. So, consider yourselves prepared, grown-ups!
Pixar has made many films, and I’ve liked each of them. To enter this contest giveaway, simply leave a comment below describing your favorite Pixar movie. The winner will be chosen with a random number generator, but please don’t enter more than once a day. The Toy Story 3 contest giveaway is open to US residents only (for shipping cost purposes), and no relatives of The Vacation Gals should enter. This contest runs until June 29, 6:00PM PST, and the winner will be announced on June 30, 2010.

I think it was toy story until Wall-E came out – what a FABULOUS movie! it’s great for grown ups and kids!
Wall-e!
My favorite Pixar movie is Monsters, Inc. Who doesn’t melt to pieces when Boo comes on the screen?
My son is a Toy Story fanatic!
Other favorites are CARS, RATATOUILLE, and UP. He just started watching A BUG’S LIFE, and he adores that, too

So far, I’d say my favorite Pixar movie is The Incredibles, but pretty much every other Pixar movie runs a very close second!!
Many thanks!!
Just saw Toy Story 3 and loved it, but the 1st will always be my fave
I love Ratatouille!
I loved them all each has a different memory with it…Have not seen Toy story 3 yet HEard mixed thoughts
We are big fans of TY2..can’t wait to see #3!
Ugh. I really don’t know which Pixar film is my favorite.
I love the details in cars, like the lightning bugs being tiny little Volkswagen bugs.
I loved the ground breaking work Pixar put into making Sulley’s hair blow in the wind in Monster’s Inc. I loved Buschemi’s character.
I love Toy Story’s simple story that allows multiple generations to enjoy it.
I love Up for dealing with the lost of a baby in such a gentle way (omg I cried).
I can’t decide. Oh yes I can. Wall-E. Cuz he’s just so cute! LOL
Our family absolutely love CARS. I can’t count the number of times I have seen it.
Toy Story has always been my favorite, but after that it would be Monsters Inc.
“The Incredibles” is my favorite.

Toy Story is my favorite because I remember thinking that my toys had a secret life while I wasn’t around and this movie proves it.
Toy Story one is my favorite because that’s when we got to meet the characters.
That is a tough one. I guess I am going to say Toy Story 3. It actually almost made me cry. Very cute and funny movie. I just loved Spanish Buzz.
Toy story is a great movie
I loved Finding Nemo..
My favorite movie is Toy Story. (but I love the shorts that Pixar does)
Woody is the best
Pixar really is the best at what they do. I don’t think I have ever seen a movie of theirs and been disappointed. Cars, Monsters Inc., Toy Story, Wall-E, Up!, they are all classics. Tweeted:

We all thought Cars was great!!
Finding Nemo.
my favorite pixar movie is cars
Both Toy Story 2 & 3 have made me cry, but I’ll pick TS2 as my favorite.
Without a doubt, WALL-E is my favorite Pixar movie. Just astonishing to think that a movie intended for kids can have an impact on the way I think about my footprint on society. Plus, M-O is just awesome! “Foreign Contaminant”
Can’t wait to see Toy Story 3, but Toy Story still rules!
Cars
By far my favorite has been Cars. My son could watch this every day. Great story, great animation. Pixar is gold in my eyes. Thanks for the chance tow in.
I’m a big fan of Toy Story & Toy Story 2 and more than a bit bummed that my husband will likely be the one to take our 5 year old to the much anticipated TS3 in 3D. As much as our 21 month old loves Buzz, Woody and the crew, she’s not yet ready for the theater experience.
Just one movie, wow. They are all great. I’d say Monsters Inc. was one of my favorites though.
So hard to choose just one, but it would have to be A Bugs Life.
I love Toy story 1 and Bugs life.
I’d have to say WALL-E
My son and I love Cars
i loved monsters inc it was so adorable
I just love Wall-E.
My favorite Pixar movie is Up, but I think my son would vote for Cars or Toy Story
monsters inc!
