Timothy Dalton, Toy Story 3 (2010)
Pixar's first-ever threequel reconvenes most of the voice actors from the earlier films and adds two new cadres: the toys at Sunnydale Day Care, who teach Woody, Buzz and the gang the grim meaning of child’s play, and another, smaller troupe owned by Bonnie, an imaginative child in Andy’s neighborhood. The star actor here is Mr. Pricklepants, a hedgehog in green Swiss fedora and lederhosen. Mr. P. sees himself as a distinguished thespian forced to do improv for a four-year-old but carrying on gallantly nonetheless. Timothy Dalton voices him in a plummy Brit accent, as if the hedgehog were Sir John Gielgud making the best of a bad gig. And that, ladies and gents, is Acting.
