Clearview's Ziegfeld Theatre Kicks Off Disney's 'Toy Story 3' With LIVE Buzz Lightyear and Woody Appearances and Movie Marathon

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., June 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Clearview Cinemas today announced a special "Toy Story" family engagement at the legendary Ziegfeld Theatre that includes a movie marathon, the showing of the new highly anticipated "Toy Story 3," and LIVE appearances of the beloved Disney Pixar characters Buzz Lightyear and Woody.

On Thursday, June 17, Clearview will host a "Toy Story" movie marathon featuring all three "Toy Story" films in Disney Digital 3D™ with Buzz Lightyear and Woody appearances prior to the 12:01 am showing of "Toy Story 3." In addition, from June 18 to June 20, there will be Buzz Lightyear and Woody appearances prior to each showtime throughout the opening weekend of "Toy Story 3."

"Toy Story 3" welcomes Woody (voice of Tom Hanks), Buzz (voice of Tim Allen) and the whole gang back to the big screen as Andy prepares to depart for college and his loyal toys find themselves in… day care!  These untamed tots with their sticky little fingers do not play nice, so it's all for one and one for all as plans for the great escape get underway. A few new faces—some plastic, some plush—join the adventure, including iconic swinging bachelor and Barbie's counterpart Ken (voice of Michael Keaton), a thespian hedgehog named Mr. Pricklepants (voice of Timothy Dalton) and a pink, strawberry-scented teddy bear called Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear (voice of Ned Beatty).  Directed by Lee Unkrich (co-director of "Toy Story 2" and "Finding Nemo"), produced by Pixar veteran Darla K. Anderson ("Cars," "Monsters, Inc."), and written by Academy Award®-winning screenwriter Michael Arndt ("Little Miss Sunshine"), "Toy Story 3" is a comical new adventure opening June 18 in Disney Digital 3D™.

Tickets and showtimes are available online at www.clearviewcinemas.com, at the Ziegfeld Theatre box office, and toll free at 888-CLVW TIX.  Moviegoers are advised to purchase tickets in advance to ensure that they don't miss out on this special engagement.
