Toy Story 3 wins best animated feature film

Toy Story 3 won the Oscar for best animated feature on Sunday, becoming the fourth Pixar release to win the category in as many years.

In perhaps the least surprising result at the Academy Awards, the hit cartoon beat out another Hollywood crowd-pleaser, "How to Train Your Dragon," and the British-French co-production "The Illusionist."

"Toy Story 3," the most popular film at the box office last year with worldwide sales of $1.1 billion, marked the third film in a series about a group of action figures and toy-chest favorites who come to life when humans are not looking. Showing a group of players with astronaut Buzz Lightyear leader, who is voiced by Tim Allen, and cowboy Woody is voiced by Tom Hanks.

The figure also popular at Toy Story 3 is Randy Newman. Newman wrote the songs for Toy Story 3. He has earned two more Academy Award nominations(19 total) in the Best Original Song category for Almost There and Down In New Orleans too.
