60 mins | 23.976fps | x264 | English | MatRoska (.mkv) | 733 MB
Genre: Animation

• "The Adventures of Andre & Wally B" (1984)
Created way back in 1984 before Pixar even existed, back when the talent worked
under Lucasfilm, the very first short is about a bee and a weird amorphous Mickey
Mouse-esque character. Short, rough around the edges, and barely scripted, this
feature is included for posterity only.
Score: 5/10
• "Luxo Jr." (1986)
Pixar’s first official short film brings the iconoclastic company logo—the
Luxo desk lamp—to life in a charming short of two lamps entertaining themselves
on a desk. A short demonstration, but the start of something magical, "Luxo
Jr." was theatrically screened alongside Toy Story 2.
Score: 8/10
• "Red’s Dream" (1987)
Created on Pixar’s branded computer (yes, back in the day, Pixar actually built
and sold animation computers) comes the first true indication of the emerging
narrative talent in Pixar: a lonely unicycle in a bike store daydreaming of an
exciting life. Heartbreakingly blue.
Score: 8/10
• "Tin Toy" (1988)
The early origins of Toy Story can be found here, in the form of animated toys
coming to life, but hands down, this may be the most frightening piece of animation
in the existence of the art form. Pixar’s first stab at human-realistic computer
animation with horrendous results, an animated human baby comes to life like a
rubber doll possessed by Satan himself. A frighteningly fascinating glimpse into
the emerging art form, but, holy crap, that baby scares me.
Score: 6/10
• "Knick Knack" (1989)
Released theatrically alongside Finding Nemo, "Knick Knack" may be the
best-known example of the features presented here, as well as Pixar’s continual
fascination with animating inanimate objects—in this case, a snowman trapped
in a snow globe looking for his freedom. Hilarious and charming.
Score: 8/10
• "Geri’s Game" (1997)
An Oscar winner for Best Animated Short Film, released theatrically alongside
A Bug’s Life, "Geri’s Game" depicts a lonely man in the park playing
chess against an oddly familiar opponent. Eight years after the previous short,
the improvement in the technical skills of the Pixar animation team is evident
here, bringing humans to life in a convincing fashion for the first time.
Score: 7/10
• "For the Birds" (2000)
Another Oscar winner for Best Animated Short Film, released theatrically alongside
Monsters, Inc.. A clique of birds perched on an electrical wire get an unexpected
visitor in the form of a large, awkward blue bird, much to their chagrin. A delightful
play of color, character design, sound effects, and dialogue-free storytelling,
this is the most quintessential Pixar short of the bunch, best illustrating the
amazing talent and cinematic skill of the animators to entertain so easily in
such a short span of time. It is also the last to be free from speech—from
here on out, they’re all talkies.
Score: 9/10
• "Mike’s New Car" (2002)
A supplement released alongside Monsters, Inc. on DVD, "Mike’s New Car"
tells the unfortunate tale of Mike and his awesome new car, a top-of-the-line
behemoth with more buttons than a VCR remote. When Sully and Mike try to go for
a drive, chaos ensues. Some beautiful animation and technological skill is evident
here (check out Sully’s fur). For fans of the film, this one scores high marks.
Score: 8/10
• "Boundin’" (2003)
An interesting departure for Pixar attached theatrically to the start of The Incredibles,
"Boundin’" tells the musically narrated tale of a young sheep, happy
as a clam until sheep-herders appear and shear him of his clothes. Luckily, a
jackalope appears to give the young animal the secret to happiness—bounce
your cares away. A cute message and colorful animation will sure to delight the
kids, but the format of music and monotone poetic narration failed to strike a
chord in this reviewer.
Score: 7/10
• "Jack-Jack Attack" (2005)
Something of a deleted scene from The Incredibles, "Jack-Jack Attack"
fills in the missing moments with the youngest baby and her hapless babysitter
as Jack’s super-powers manifest in dangerous and outrageous ways. A fantastic
short, but only if you have seen the feature film, otherwise it makes no sense
whatsoever.
Score: 8/10
• "Mater and the Ghost Light" (2006)
A short to accompany Cars, "Mater and the Ghost Light" brings back the
protagonists from the film for a short adventure in a pseudo re-telling of "The
Boy Who Cried Wolf"—or in this case, "The Car Who Cried Ghost."
After playing endless pranks on the inhabitants of his town, the cars decide to
team up and get back at Mater with a prank of their own—a story about a
haunted ghost light that eats cars. This one runs just a bit too long for my tastes.
Score: 6/10
• "One Man Band" (2005)
Two street performers vie for the affections of a young girl and her money. Clearly
lifting animation influences from the then-upcoming feature Ratatouille, "One
Man Band" experiments with more angular character designs and European locals
and features some outrageous musical performances from its two musical acts, each
trying to outperform the other to comedic absurdity.
Score: 7/10
• "Lifted" (2006)
Shown theatrically with Pixar’s Ratatouille, this is modern-era Pixar at its finest:
an abduction gone horribly awry with a young alien performing his "abduction
test" under the watchful eye of an instructor and making a terrible mess
of things. Beautifully animated and side-splittingly hilarious, this is arguably
the best short of the bunch.
Score: 9/10
• "Scrat-No Time for Nuts" (2006) EXTRA!
Scrat discovered a time machine while he was busy finding his favourite nut, the
machine sends him to the past and the future.
Score: 9/10
