"'Toy Story 3' lives up to buzz with $41M opener"
The Associated Press (June 19, 2010)
" 'Toy Story 3' has become the favorite plaything for moviegoers as the animated sequel heads to a $100-million-plus opening weekend.
"The latest hit from Disney's Pixar Animation took in $41 million in its first day Friday...."
I know that "buzz," in this context, can mean "a confusion of activity and gossip." (Princeton's WordNet) But considering that a key character in the Toy Story movies is Buzz Lightyear of Star Command - that headline is one of the more delightfully painful plays on words it's been my pleasure to read in the news for a long time.
I'm planning to see "Toy Story 3" soon, by the way: and looking forward to the experience.
