Watch: Three New 'Cars' Mini-Shorts!

Cars Cars Toons News Short Film

To accompany last Friday’s Disney Channel screening of Up, Disney also aired three brand new Cars shorts. In case you weren’t able to catch them, they’ve just been posted on the Disney website for your viewing pleasure.

Much like the vignettes often released ahead of the latest Pixar movie, these "shorty shorts" clock in at a quick 90 seconds or less. Each was directed by Jeremy Lasky (a frequent director of photography for Pixar) and produced over at Pixar Canada. Watch Hiccups below, and check out Bugged and Spinning at those respective links.

In my opinion, the Cars universe really shines in short form; it allows just enough time with the one-off characters that they don’t overstay their welcome.

Your thoughts?
