Mickey Mouse Shorts (2013)

[Donatello19]

Hey everyone, I don't know if any of you have heard, but there is a new Mickey Mouse series coming to Disney Channel on June 28th. The series is in 2D animation and will focus on the adventures of Mickey and his friends throughout various locations such as Paris and New York City. One of the shorts, titled "Croissant de Triomphe" is available to watch on Disney's website right now: http://video.disney.com/watch/disneychannel-croissant-de-triomphe-4d7b3aae690a98650d776d97

Sadly Oswald (my favorite Disney character :P) doesn't appear to be in it, but I'm hoping for at least a cameo. Being the huge Disney nerd that I am, I can't wait for this new series to begin!

[Brodie]

I like those designs a lot. Aside from Goofy just looking like a scumbag. But really great.

Hehe I agree....he's got the worst design in my opinion. Everyone else is so cute and colorful (besides Pete) and he's just..ugh. And where are his pants? :teek: It doesn't really bother me as I've never liked Goofy that much anyway.

[Guitar_Raph]

Since Wayne Allwine passed away, who's the 4th voice of Mickey Mouse?

[Donatello19]

Since Wayne Allwine passed away, who's the 4th voice of Mickey Mouse?

That would be Bret Iwan.

[Raph's Girl]

WTH did they do to Goofy?! They took away his pants and gave him a tail?! That's.. just wrong!! *hugs all her Goofy plushies in fear* :teek:

[Shark_Blade]

Cute. I guess the humor would be like Teen Titans Go/new Looney Tunes style?

Modernized.

[Wildcat]

OH this looks awesome! Didn't even know...well I hardly watch Disney Channel besides P&F and Gravity Falls but there haven't been new episodes lately so I don't turn it on.

Mickey Mouse on Disney Channel? Might just be crazy enough to work :roll:

EDIT- Ugh just checked my guide. Its 5 min cartoons in between shows. I get thats what "shorts" are but come on...Its Mickey Mouse, give him a half hour worth of time.

[Shark_Blade]

Here's some screencaps I took:

Nope, it's nothing like that actually. All the interviews and what not have stated that they didn't want to just modernize Mickey by giving him a smartphone and making him talk in slang, but to keep his charm and personality and re introduce it in a new way to a new generation. Did you click the link I provided in the first post? You can watch one of the shorts there.

the short really put a smile on my face from start to finish.

[Donatello19]

Is that... Oswald??


I'm gonna say no, that rabbit looks like a young child, whereas Oswald would be around the same age as Mickey (in continuity, not real life). Plus, his outfit is totally different and he has a buck tooth. Something that is dissapointing is that it seems there are cats and rabbits in the background, yet Oswald and Ortensia aren't in it :x

[Raph's Girl]

I watched that first one and liked it. It was different and they spoke completly in French! Felt sorry for Cinderella tho. *lol*

fave parts:
Mickey shouting "Alons-y!"
Mickey hanging off the Moulan Rouge
Mickey running over some nuns, who then glide gently to the ground
The cheering Notre Dame Gargoyles. :lol:

[Donatello19]

Another episode, "No Service", is now available to watch on Disney's website!

Uh ok... that one was just....uh Goofy...itching his uh....K that's soo not for kids.... :ohwell:

[sdp]

Seems similar in style to the new Loony Toons show, how successful was that show? I know the internet seemed to like it. I don't really care but it does seem odd that Oswald is not there counting they're ging for the retro look and Disney did re-launch Oswald when Epic Mickey came out and his merchandise is now in stores after waiting on him for a while. Are they waiting for another "re-launch" after Epic Mickey 2 failed? I doubt they'll let him fade away after all the trouble of getting him.

[Brodie]

There isn't really a "was" to the Looney Tunes show, its still going.

[chrisdude]

I'm loving this stuff.

[Donatello19]

I think they'd benefit from adding Oswald and Ortensia to the main cast....more characters for the others to interact with can only make the show better (as long as they're lovable and have good personalities, which they do). Just imagine how funny an episode with Oswald leaving Donald with his 420 kids to baby sit would be. I think it'd be hilarious. They also need another female character, Minnie and Daisy really isn't enough. Ortensia would fit in perfectly because of her style and personality, but also be much different because she is a mother and is much more mature than the rest of them. I can only hope that Oswald and Ortenisa will be in Season 2, if there is one, but seeing as how Disney barley gives a rat's ass http://www.gamersunity.de/img/sys/2012-44/2012Splinter.jpg about Oswald, I doubt we'll see them anytime soon.

Anyways, I really can't wait for this show!

[Raph's Girl]

Newest ep. Uh....Ok these are getting weirder and weirder.



1: Goofy in drag :teek:

2: Simba???

3: a demented, thieving...hot dog...

4: Never piss off Mickey. *lol*

[TurtleTitan97]

WTH did they do to Goofy?! They took away his pants and gave him a tail?! That's.. just wrong!! *hugs all her Goofy plushies in fear* :teek:

Technically, this isn't really new. Goofy originally had a tail and didn't wear pants back in 1930s:

Anyway, I've really been enjoying these new Mickey Mouse shorts.:D

[Guitar_Raph]

Is the freakishly looking Goofy still voiced by Bill Farmer?

That lion didn't look or act anything like Simba.

[Peanut]

Why is the Internet so full of people who think that everything is a reference?

[Wildcat]

Ok Ive seen first 3 episodes on TV. Im kinda torn with it. They are entertaining, while they last, but the humor really seems more Looney Tune-ish (classic, not The Show) than Mickey Mouse. Also I can't believe they showed dog pee in "No Service".

Overall it really seems like it could be any other comedic cartoon.

And my gosh...3 min shorts, once a week shoed-in between Tween crap is literally the least they could have done for Mickey Mouse. What is wrong with Disney Channel?

Oh yeah. Putting it in the middle of their most popular shows.

What monsters.

[Donatello19]

I hat Goofy in this series so far. In his first appearance it was like he didn't even know Mickey or Donald and vice versa. Also some good news, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has been cancelled. "New York Weenie" has been my favorite episode so far, Mickey's facial expressions were very Adventure Time like and made me laugh :lol: I've also done some fan art, if anyone wants to see. I really like the new style, and it's actually pretty fun and easy to draw!

How is it 'good news' that Clubhouse was cancelled?

Kids LOVED that ish.

[Donatello19]

Well, it's good new for the fans that aren't children. That show gave Mickey the "for babies" stereotype. It's not like little kids are going to realize that there aren't new episodes anyway.

[The Stryker]

So THAT's the show that made Mickey for babies? Not the decades of other kids cartoons? Come on now.

And if you're honestly a fan that sits around and considers a children's cartoon being cancelled a victory....that's something else. Something depressing. Let the kids enjoy a CHILDREN'S CARTOON character.

I never said Mickey wasn't a children character, which he is. But I think we can agree that putting him in a Dora The Explorer setting and asking the viewer what color the square is gives him a reputation as a preschool/babies character, which he's not. Mickey should be for all ages, which I believe the new shorts are.

[Cure]

Also some good news, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has been cancelled.

Wow, talk about being selfish.

"Hooray, this thing I don't like that others do is gone! Victory for me!"

[Donatello19]

The new style of this show is great...I've always preferred the white faces with black eyes instead of the style that has pupils. I can't stop drawing the characters! Here's Donald:

http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/182/9/1/untitled_drawing_by_sonicboyant-d6bic4b.png

I wonder when Pluto and Peter will appear in the new show. I'm more curious to see how Pete will be...he looks more like an actual villain this time, kind of like he did in House of Mouse. Still hoping for Oswald to appear, even if he's in a future season.

A character like Mickey can exist in different interpretations and survive. To me you're coming off paranoid. Scared that someone might call you a baby for liking those characters.

Nobody viewed the Looney Toons as baby fodder when Baby Looney Toons was around because they're smart enough to know that it's just a show for kids. Let the babies have shows aimed at them with characters they love. Not seeing a problem with it at all.

Yeah, you're right. The reason I didn't like Clubhouse is because if you're a Mickey/Disney fan, people will sometimes assume you need to grow up or whatever. Guess I overreacted a bit :tanime:

[愛]

You're on the wrong board to have that sort of mindset.

[Raph's Girl]

From the image it appears that Pete's back to being the jerky Peg Leg/Black Pete. Wonder if we'll get the bratty/bully version of PJ as well? Course introducing pre- Goof Troop PJ would probably mean they'd have to include pre-Goof Troop Max (who looked more human and had red hair).

[Guitar_Raph]

Yeah, you're right. The reason I didn't like Clubhouse is because if you're a Mickey/Disney fan, people will sometimes assume you need to grow up or whatever. Guess I overreacted a bit :tanime:

So what if you're an adult that likes kiddie shows? There's no law that says yo have to be a certain age to like Disney, Nickelodeon or the HUB. It be like stating that GSN is for ladies only or RFD's for country bumpkins or ESPN's for men.

Talk about The TV Boss ad....

(Ross Lynch is plaing guitar & singing. An old person enters....)
OLD MAN: Sorry Ross, you don't appeal to me or this household.
ROSS: But you said you liked my guitar when you commented on my Headbook page.
OLD MAN: That's true. But the city insists that this household has to have channels that appeal to 18 or older. So I'm gonna have to block you.
ROSS: Nooooooooo!
(Be the boss of what you allow in your home. Be the tv boss.)

PS: Can you do a Goofy drawing. Liked your artwork.

[Wildcat]

Oh yeah. Putting it in the middle of their most popular shows.

What monsters. You know what I mean and my point is legitimate. Mickey is Disney's mascot and even after all this time he only gets 3 min shorts between shows.

Also Clubhouse was clearly aimed at preschoolers. Its fine for them but Mickey deserves more than that...and for that matter more than this.

I don't care what people watch. Anyone can like anything but Baby Looney Tunes was not a preschool/edutainment show. It was a traditional cartoon with obvious life lessons thrown in for good measure.

[Cure]

And countless merchandise.

And the shape of his head everywhere.

And people dressed as him walking around in theme parks.

And appearances in video games, including his own.

And a place in pop culture history.

Boo hoo. I don't see any historians discussing the importance of Zack and Cody anywhere. They deserve more than this.

He's obviously saying that he deserves more attention in the ANIMATION department, you know, how Mickey started out..:roll:

[Cure]

Mickey started out in short films, which is what's going on now. Try again.

[Wildcat]

Ya Mickey started out through shorts but if anyone really thinks these 3 min cartoons justifies the characters importance in animation you're kidding yourself.

The face of Disney only gets 3 minutes...yup thats about right.:ohwell:

[Jester]

There were points that the "Face of Disney" wasn't in anything, why does the fact that now he's in 3 minute shorts seem to be a bad thing. Shouldn't we be saying, "Yea! Mickey's in new comedy shorts."

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

Mickey Mouse doing anything nowadays is shocking news!

Why? He may be Disney's mascot, but his reputation has been poor for the past few decades. "Mickey Mouse" has come to describe being wimpy and mediocre, and none other than President Ronald Reagan-yes, President Reagan-has used the term "Mickey Mouse" in a derogatory sense in a speech to Congress that I heard. Never mind that he was hardly a wimp in the old stories and cartoons from the early 20th Century. But for whatever reason, his star fell while Donald Duck and Scrooge McDuck would become popular and remain so. Maybe it was because Mickey had such a squeaky voice.

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

A reason for the current popularity of Scrooge McDuck. (http://www.poisonedminds.com/d/20130329.html)

Yeah, I saw that one...it's the first episode I didn't like. No voices, and no other characters besides Mickey..

[Donatello19]

A new short titled "Stayin' Cool" premieres tonight! It involves Mickey, Donald and Goofy trying to find creative ways to stay cool on the hottest day of the year. Since Goofy is in this one (with a larger role, it seems) we'll see if he's better than his previous appearances in these shorts, because as you know I completely hate him so far. It's also worth noting that this is the second appearance of Donald and the thrid appearance of Goofy (he had a cameo in "New York Weenie"). I'm hoping we see Minnie and Daisy a bit more, and I'm really hoping that we'll be able to see Pete and Pluto for the first time soon!

I haven't really enjoyed the recent episodes as much as I wanted to...It's probably the fact that they only star Mickey....I mean come on, you have loved characters like Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Pete and yet you don't use them. Donald's only been in two episodes..and Goofy and Daisy have appeared as well but mostly just as cameos with no real role. Pluto and Pete haven't even appeared yet...sure Minnie's had some starring roles alongside Mickey, but that's to be expected..That's not to say I'm not enjoying the series so far though, trust me I am.

Well, isn't the idea that they're trying to get Mickey's image back in order? Remember what I said earlier about the term "Mickey Mouse" having become derisive, as a synonym for "wimpy"? Why use the other characters too much when they don't have the same poor image?

Because they're well known beloved Disney characters who are apart of the Mickey Mouse series..Not to mention that they promoted all the characters so much in interviews and whatnot...and besides, a good main character needs good supporting characters. I'm not saying I hate Mickey by himself or anything like that, but IMO, it just gets a bit boring without the other characters around.
