Dangit, stupid Russian embed isn't working!

*Under construction*

*edit - After a half an hour of looking for an alternate embed, I finally found a Chinese one that seems to work for firefox.

Hopefully I can find a legit embed in the future!

Anyway, enjoy!

I agree, the multi-layered, multi-styled animation is awesome. Whatever one says about Pixar's stories, their animation is always superb and even after all this time they still manage to stay incredibly creative.

congrats....i spent half a lifetime looking for a *quality version of this last week....i saw this when i took my daughter to see toy story 3 and was incredibly impressed with the level of creativity in this short....great sift! *promote

Gotta hand it to them, they're freaking creative geniuses.

that was epically boring.

That was a really good find. Worth watching twice, so you can notice the symbolism sooner.

I think, too, that since this has no dialogue, that more people can see it and understand it, and younger people, too.

Um, is it me or is the video choppy?

I'd agree totally and completely if you removed the "ally boring" part.

Inspiring.

Anyone else has problem with this video? For me there is nothing there. No embed, no nothing.

*edit Nevermind, updated to latest flash and now I can see it.

Watching this before Toy Story 3 made me think of exactly that, I was watching ye good ol high quality MGM cartoons of the 50s. Well you can throw Warner Bros. in there as well

I'm just really happy Pixar (or rather a few key Pixar folks) managed to get Disney to make 2D animated movies again... and make sure they didnt suck either.

Can anybody find a better link to the video that isn't all stretched and with shitty, choppy encoding and without the azn bullshit all around it?

You would have to be pretty naïve to not identify the attempt to indoctrinate the viewer with a "more open and accepting view" of sexual experimentation, namely homosexuality as was artistically illustrated by the two male characters sharing a bewildering rainbow-in-the-crotch experience. The concern we should have is WHY we would trust them to indoctrinate our Youth with social, sexual, or political messages of any kind. Remember when stories had "Morals" and not "Immorals"?

Additionally strange is the exaltation of Wayne Dyers quote. That guy is a moron and a fraud, and why it would be chosen for inclusion in a children's animation must make perfect sense to only fools. Unless of course, it was chosen to once again punctuate the blatant cry for acceptance of other peoples' unorthodox sexual orientation. Creatively, this animated short was clever until Teddy Newton added his own dissolute agenda.

^ Does the word "projection" factor into this perception of indoctrination?

Are you orally morally? Or the real thing?

Please don't feed the Trolls.

^ nuk nuk nuk nuk nuk!

The Chinese embed worked last night but whatever embed there is now isn't loading for me in Opera or IE. Did it get removed or is something wrong?

edit: Nevermind, seems to be loading now.

Chrome/OSX isn't working either. Firefox plays just fine.
