'Toy Story 3' and Google Team Up to Make Us Aware of Popular Movie, Search Engine

If there are two companies that really need to start advertising if they're going to get people interested in their product, they are: 1) the most consistently acclaimed, successful studio probably ever, and, 2) the most popular search engine on the planet. Thus, the two have teamed up for a joint commercial for Google and Toy Story 3. It's probably the most successful team-up of Toy Story and a corporation since those US Postal Service cross-over spots where the piggy bank is a mail worker--a concept that almost makes sense when you connect the dots from John Ratzenberger voicing Hamm to John Ratzenberger playing Cliff Clavin on Cheers.

Doesn't it seem like they should be more jarred and frightened by the existence of Spud Lightyear?
