I saw “Toy Story 3” last night. Be EXTREMELY jealous. Sorry to gloat … my review will be up very soon.
Anyways, I won a prize at my screening last night! Unlike at the “Step Brothers” screening where I had to answer an insanely challenging question about Will Ferrell, I won the prize based on my knowledge of a running segment on a morning radio show. The segment always runs about the time I leave to drive to school in the morning, so I know it very well.
As soon as I heard a word that tipped me off to the segment, I stood up in my seat and yelled “CARMEN CALLS!!!!!!!!” at the top of my lungs. The DJ running the contest made some comment about me being enthusiastic as I ran down to claim my prize like a contestant on “The Price Is Right.”
I got three things: a giant “Toy Story 3” poster that now takes up a third of my bulletin board, a game where you use a Buzz Lightyear gun to shoot disk that save the other toys, and a lovely photo op. The game is officially titled the “Space Shooter Target Game,” something I only found out after my brother threw it in the trash (whole lot of gratitude for me winning it, I guess).
The best thing of all: the movie made me want to play with the toy. But alas, I didn’t get to.
