Monsters, Inc.
One of the most iconic Disney-Pixar animations. Here, director Pete Docter ('Inside Out', 'WALL-E') plays with the "reality" of monsters. Nothing to scare children just to scare. The scream, in fact, is the source of energy in this world where furry and one-eyed monsters live in harmony. The funniest, however, is the relationship between Mike, Sullivan and the little girl Boo, who enters this parallel reality because of a fault of the monster duo. There are emotional moments, others desperate. But 'Monsters, Inc.' is, in its essence, a fun adventure that teaches the audience to respect differences and always look to the "other side". In addition, it is impossible not to keep Sullivan, Mike, Rose, Boo, George and other monsters in the heart.
The Force Awakens From Its Nap
Fun, witty, and full of references, this short collaboration between The Simpsons and Star Wars, produced for the commemorative date of May 4th (Star Wars Day) can please everyone. No knowledge of the franchise is necessary to enjoy this little story, but fans and aficionados will thrill at the various references, jokes, characters, and situations created. A great fun for all, children and adults alike, it's a shame they didn't make a longer short.
The Good, the Bart, and the Loki
"The Good, the Bart, and the Loki" is a really short but fun and interesting short film. It makes critiques about the environment and also of dysfunctional families. If you liked the series "Loki", you will love this animation. Great crossover of "The Avengers" with "The Simpsons", quick and entertaining story about the excess of extra scenes that Marvel movies usually have. After all, couldn't they just insert the content at the end without making us watch endless credits?
The Simpsons in Plusaversary
Once the purchase of 20th Century Fox by Disney was finalized, the House of Mickey Mouse never stopped exploring the most well-known yellow family on television. There are several shorts that mix universes, such as 'Star Wars' and Marvel. In 'The Simpsons in Plusaversary', Disney fully embraces the commercial (and almost propagandistic) nature of these 'Simpsons' shorts to talk about a party organized by the Simpson family with the theme Disney+ Day -- a special date of the streaming service with various releases around the world. At this party, Homer is left out and gets to know and talk to some of the most memorable Disney characters, like a great moment with Goofy. It doesn't change much the form and narrative seen in these other two shorts, with Star Wars and Marvel themes, falling a bit short of what 'The Simpsons' can offer. Still, it's fun to put the yellow characters together with icons of pop culture.
Extinct
Substitute 'Flummels: Extintos!' with 'Extinct' when mentioned. Translate the following text into US English: 'Flummels: Extintos!' is a comedy animation that tells the story of Op and Ed, the cute and adventurous Flummels, who accidentally travel to the future and discover that their entire species has gone extinct. So, the duo decide to do whatever it takes to save their friends. Animations usually, although they are 'childish', work with any audience. However, the movie in question is a feature film specifically aimed at children, with a very playful atmosphere, which proposes to insert educational elements historically speaking, such as, for example, time travel, which transport the little animals to various periods. It is very dynamic and full of colors, so it is a feast for children, who, in addition to having fun, will be learning.
The Simpsons: Welcome to the Club
Since Disney took over the licenses and intellectual properties of Fox, we have experienced an unexpected crossover between characters. It seems that the studio is not giving up on this intention and that is why this new short film from Disney+ combines characters from 'The Simpsons' with classic Disney cartoons. In 'The Simpsons: Welcome to the Club', Lisa will go on a journey of self-discovery in the company of Ursula, the villain from 'The Little Mermaid', to decide if she wants to become an evil being or stay the same Lisa as always.
Family
Mufasa: The Lion King
Rafiki relays the legend of Mufasa to lion cub Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala. Told in flashbacks, the story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka—the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion a journey of misfits searching for their destiny and working together to evade a threatening and deadly foe.
Thelma the Unicorn
A fun and tender animation directed by Jared and Jerusha Hess, creators of cult classics like Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre. In fact, Thelma the Unicorn shares similarities with these films: its plot follows the titular pony, who dreams of being a singer but is underestimated due to her size and appearance, despite her talent. Her life changes when, due to an accident with paint, glitter, and a carrot, she adopts the appearance of a unicorn and becomes a sensation. It’s a simple, uncomplicated story that, through the usual expectations of the entertainment industry (appearances over talent), conveys a message of acceptance and self-esteem.
