We already knew that the third Toy Story film would be coming at us in 3D, like most of Pixar's output at this point. But today Disney has announced that it'll be even bigger than that-- Toy Story 3 will debut in IMAX as well.

Toy Story 3 director Lee Unkrich linked from his Twitter page to a press release about the decision. The IMAX choice seems perfectly logical, given that animated movies like Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and A Christmas Carol have gone the IMAX route and likely made more money for it. I'm not certain exactly how crucial it will be to see Toy Story 3 in IMAX, but I'm sure there are plenty of Pixar diehards ready to shell out their money just in case.
