New Mickey Shorts

The Disney Channel (and Disney.com and Mickey.disney.com) is releasing new Mickey Mouse shorts this year. The new shorts range from 3-6 minutes in length and feature classic characters such as Daisy, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Mickey. The animation is 2-D, not 3-D, and the shorts are directed by someone whom worked on Dexter's Laboratory (one of Dave's favorites) and Powerpuff Girls, thus explaining the similar style to those shows.

Love the new title cards

We watched a couple of the shorts this weekend. We thought they were cute, but one thing struck a bad note with us. In No Service a dog walks by a hydrant and does its business. A full display of urine showering the hydrant. There shouldn't be urine on The Disney Channel.

Here are a couple of the shorts for your enjoyment. If you want to see more definitely check out Mickey.disney.com.

Who's Going to be Robin Hood?

Things are a little quiet for us this week. Dave's been working on finishing up editing our Photopass+ pictures from Disney World and Holly is gearing up for Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, MN this weekend. There should be some race-related content next week.

In the meantime, enjoy this classic Chuck Jones cartoon: Robin Hood Makes Good - 1939
