'Symphony Hour'?

"Symphony Hour" is missing from the list. The cartoon has prettymuch every Disney cartoon character in it, they're basically musicians in a symphony and they're scrambling around a huge Carnegie Hall-type building (or larger) trying to get their ess together for the show. Its more or less a disaster -- I seem to remember an elevator crushing a bunch of musical instruments. I was surprised it wasn't on this big list. I'd add it myself but I don't know what year it was made. --Ragemanchoo (talk) 08:25, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

'Hot Dogs!'?

I've never heard of this and Google reveals nothing. It's not listed on Disney's site. I call fake. I'll leave it for a while, if anyone wants to try to verify it. 216.180.216.207 (talk) 06:16, 7 January 2009 (UTC)NealP

I've been thinking the same thing. Don't think this exists (or will exist..) SWatsi (talk) 20:45, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

'2000's Missing Shorts!'?

Also, the 2000's list is missing some shorts, here's the full list but I'm too lazy to edit it in myself:

Well, excluding the Mickey Mouse shorts (from "The House of Mouse") I can fill you in on the 2000's other shorts:

'John Henry' (2000) - Released on "Disney's American Legends" DVD. Only place to get it on DVD, except it is a full screen version when the true ratio was wide screen.

'Grievance of a Starmaker' (2002) - Released on "It's A Small World Of Fun! Volume One" DVD only and cannot be found anywhere else.

'Destino' (2003) - Releasing in 2010 on its own DVD on the same day as the "Fantasia" and "Fantasia/2000" Blu-ray releases. Will include a documentary about the short in order to increase buying value. Not currently available on DVD.

'A Dairy Tale' (2004) - This is a bonus feature on the "Home on the Range" DVD and cannot be found anywhere else.

'Lorenzo' (2004) - This is not available on DVD or any format. Currently it's only shown specially - such as at film festivals and Disney cruises. Possibly (this is my assumption) will release on the 'Destino' DVD or "Fantasia" or "Fantasia/2000" re-releases.

'One By One' (2004) - Available on "The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride" Special Edition DVD and cannot be found anywhere else.

'The Cat That Looked At A King' (2004) - Available on the "Mary Poppins" 40th Anniversary DVD. There is a 45th Anniversary DVD coming out this January 27. It may be re-released on there, as well. Can't be found anywhere else.

'The Origin of Stitch' (2005) - Available on "Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has A Glitch" DVD and cannot be found anywhere else.

'The Little Match Girl' (2006) - Available on "The Little Mermaid" Platinum Edition DVD and cannot be found anywhere else.

'Pip's Predicament: A Pop-up Adventure' (2007) - Found only on the "Enchanted" DVD/Blu-ray.

...

'Destino', 'Lorenzo', 'One By One', and 'The Little Match Girl' were all made for a third Fantasia that was once called "Fantasia 2006" but the film was canceled and the four shorts completed for it got or will get separate releases.

'Grievance of a Starmaker' was made by Walt Disney Studios Japan and was part of a contest where a person wrote the story and won the contest so their story was made into an animated short.

'A Dairy Tale' was directed by the same people behind "Home on the Range" and was made especially for the DVD as an extra purchase incentive. The same mindset was behind 'The Origin of Stitch' - to be an incentive for people to buy the Direct-To-Video sequel to the Disney Animated Classic.

...

Upcoming shorts include:

There will be a new short starring Bolt from "BOLT" for its March DVD/Blu-ray release that will premiere exclusively on the DVD/Blu-ray.

"How to Hook Up Your Home Theater" was completed in 2007 and shown before "National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets", no word on a DVD release.

"Glago's Guest" was completed in 2008 and supposed to show before "BOLT" but got pulled. It may show before "The Princess and the Frog".

"The Ballad of Nessie" is the last announced upcoming Disney short and there is no word on a release.

Some of those are already on there, but please do put those others in. I'm not sure what should and should not be included re: the origin or stitch, walt disney studios japan etc.. or if this list should be exclusively what is considered part of WDAS\WDFA. Eitherway that should be cleared up somehow, and the list made to fit that as there are others from the 90's and 2000's that are not yet in the list as well. SWatsi (talk) 21:17, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, before I add them it needs to be decided what 'counts'. They are all 'Disney shorts' but some didn't come from the two U.S. studios - one came from the Japan studio, some were from the U.S. only other departments at Disney, some were animated at DisneyToon in Australia. What counts and what doesn't? 216.180.216.207 (talk) 21:57, 12 January 2009 (UTC)NealP

Discussion Regarding Disney Film List Clean-Up

For discussions regarding the over-arching clean-up of the various Disney animated film lists, please see this WikiProjects page: Wikipedia:WikiProject Disney/Animated Film Article Cleanup. Please add any discussion regarding same there for the time being. Thank you. Jvsett (talk) 04:45, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Changes by 85.220.*.*

So, the IP user in the 85.220.*.* range (who seems to be from Iceland) is making various changes to this list, mostly good, but there are a few problems. On the off chance that that user notices this talk page posting, please consider getting an account, or alternatively, please comment here so we can discuss some of the problems with your additions. (I've also tried contacting the user via edit summaries and the talk page of the IP, but their IP keeps changing.)

For starters, you can't just add links using square brackets without pipes to all film names and expect that to work. Doing so will link to unrelated articles, such as disambiguation pages or links to completely unrelated topics (like the band article for the link I just fixed). --Mepolypse (talk) 21:23, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry what did you want say? I do have account but I don't remember my password, so sorry. Apart form that linking problem, personally don't have time to sit down a write all articles for all shorts :(. but Ken Paulson is site I have been linking in edit summaries pretty save bet on correct dates and additions as he gives original scource. 85.220.103.5 (talk) 21:46, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

If you have lost your password you can create a new account, see WP:SOCK#LEGIT (under "Compromised accounts"). Please do so, as it makes communication much easier. No one expects you to create articles for all shorts. Just make sure the links you create don't link to unrelated articles (and please don't revert me when I remove such links). Use the preview button and check that any links which are blue don't link to unrelated articles. The site you mention looks like a reliable source, but it would be better if you added this as actual references in the article, as the edit summaries are not considered proper citations. Otherwise someone else is likely to change the dates back according to some other (less reliable) source. Also, piping such as [[Health for the Americas: The Human Body|The Human Body]] seems inappropriate. The prefix is either part of the title or isn't. If it is, it should be the title of the article and the link. There were a couple of other minor issues, but I can't remember them anymore. As I said, your changes look good overall. Keep it up, but please get an account. --Mepolypse (talk) 22:35, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Tick Tock Tale

I don't think it was released theatrically with Tangled, was it? --Oerks 10:47, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Criteria

Turns out some of the Alice Comedies have more than 50% live action. (Alice's Day at Sea on YouTube) Should they be moved to the other article or should we rework the criteria for inclusion? I don't have a strong opinion, I just noticed it's inconsistent. Pigby (talk) 01:29, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

NO because Alice is an series, but we could lower % of animation into let say 30%.157.157.38.209 (talk) 12:05, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Tiny's Big Adventure

Should the Prep & Landing short - Tiny's Big Adventure be in the 2009 section? It was put up on the Disney website following the release of the tv special.
