Geri is an aging codger who is somewhat well-known in the Pixar universe.

Geri's Game

He is the star in the short film Geri's Game in which he enjoys a game of chess while playing with himself as if he were two different people; he puts on a pair of glasses on one side and takes them off on another. The prize for beating himself: his own dentures, which he would have inevitably acquired no matter how he won. Late in the game, one of his personalities (glasses) is losing badly, so he fakes a heart attack and switches the board around when the other personality (non-glasses) isn't looking.

Trivia

  • Although Geri did not have any actual dialogue in Geri's Game, his voice was provided by Bob Peterson.
  • Geri's character model makes a cameo as the Cleaner in Toy Story 2. Some chess pieces can be seen in one of the drawers of his carrying case, a reference to the short.
  • The color separations, print design and film for the Geri's Game posters were provided by Alpha DigiGraphics in Novato, California, with the printing done by Uno Printing of Novato.[citation needed]
