Toy Story Treats At Hollywood Studios


Toy Story 4 is just around the corner, so fun new Toy Story inspired treats have been popping up at Hollywood Studios. This Forky eclair has an edible topper that declares "I'm homemade." It's filled with an orange cream over a chocolate ganache. It may be my new favorite Disney dessert because it's very orangey but not overwhelmingly sweet. The Forky eclair can be found at Backlot Express.


The angry Hamm cookie is hilarious! It's two giant sugar cookies around a chocolate ganache with sour cherry filling in the center. The whole cookie sandwich is dipped in pale pink coating with a modeling chocolate nose. It's sweeter than I'd like, but still very good. And it's huge! Definitely one to share. The angry Hamm cookie can be found at The Trolley Car Cafe.


This last Pixar inspired treat can be found at Woody's Lunch Box in Toy Storyland. It's a blueberry and lemon Lunch Box Tart with a Luxo ball decoration. The tart is very fruity and not super sweet. I really enjoyed it. Which Toy Story treat will you try?

The Ballad of the Lonesome Cowboy From Toy Story 4

Disney/Pixar
Randy Newman has done it again. He has written memorable songs for every Toy Story movie, including the upcoming Toy Story 4. His latest song is called "The Ballad of the Lonesome Cowboy." It seems to be all about Woody and how having friends has changed his life.


The soundtrack for Toy Story 4 is available now. The movie arrives in theaters on June 21.

These Toy Story 4 TV Spots Are Hilarious

Pixar
The latest Toy Story 4 TV spots are hilarious. In the first spot, "Making a New Friend", we see Bonnie creating her new friend Forky.


In the second spot, "Meet Forky", Woody introduces the toys to Bonnie's new friend. I love that the first thing Rex notices is how long his arms are.


Toy Story 4 arrives in theaters on June 21.

The Lion King "Come Home" TV Spot

Disney
In the latest TV spot for Disney's live-action the Lion King, we finally hear the animals speak. Nala, voiced by Beyonce, tells Simba that its time for him to come home.


Here's the official synopsis from Disney:

Disney’s “The Lion King, directed by Jon Favreau (“The Jungle Book”), journeys to the African savanna where a future king is born. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub’s arrival. Scar, Mufasa’s brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba’s exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his.

The Lion King arrives in theaters on July 19.

Here's Your First Look At Pixar's Onward

Pixar
Pixar's next project sounds quite unique. Onward is the story of two elf brothers who go on a "grand and glorious quest", or perhaps "just a really fast and strange errand." Either way, they're looking for old-fashioned magic in a modern world.



It looks fun, right? And it's got quite the cast: Tom Holland, Chris Pratt, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Octavia Spencer. Here's the official synopsis from Pixar:

Set in a suburban fantasy world, Disney and Pixar’s “Onward” introduces two teenage elf brothers who embark on an extraordinary quest to discover if there is still a little magic left out there. Pixar Animation Studios’ all-new original feature film is directed by Dan Scanlon and produced by Kori Rae—the team behind “Monsters University.”

Pixar
Onward cometh to theaters on March 6, 2020.
