Mickey Mouse Shorts (2013)
 

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/disney...0a98650d776d97

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!

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.

That would be Bret Iwan.

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:

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

Modernized.

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.

Here's some screencaps I took:

:thyper::tlove:

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.

Here's a few other links if you wanna watch (if you can't at the disney site since it's for US residents only):

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

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

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:

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:

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.

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

I'm loving this stuff.

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 about Oswald, I doubt we'll see them anytime soon.

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