QUICK TAKES - April 1, 2009

Walt Disney is going 3-D on a lot of future films -- and some from its past.

The studio announced Tuesday that 3-D versions of the computer-animated tales “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2” would be released Oct. 2 for a two-week run as a double feature. Disney also is preparing a 3-D version of its hand-drawn animated musical “Beauty and the Beast” for release Feb. 12, 2010.

With 17 3-D releases in the works through 2012, Disney offered a preview of its lineup at ShoWest in Las Vegas, an annual convention of theater owners.
