Being one of the most
unique shorts Pixar has created, feel free to let out what ever ya feel about this short.
:
I feel so sorry for Nick! Man, does
that guy have it bad!! But it’s such a great Short . . . but sheesh, the last scene just had that same feel as
when Woody’s match was blown out by the passerby car. Just - [i]You gotta be kidding
me!![/i]
Knick Knack is has always been number 3/4 on my list of PIXAR Shorts, after One Man
Band & Geri’s Game!
Ooo…Knick-Knack – my favorite Pixar short!
Haha – I know. I was thinking, “No way…”. (chuckles) Although, my sister
and I figured out how he could eventually escape: He could just open the “Exit” door, dig deep
underneath the pebbles, and reappear outside his little home. 
Lol, that little bad
tempered snowman always makes me chuckle.
The only short
that didn’t blew me away.
It’s just the simple things that make it funny along with
a ridiculously funny soundtrack. Don’t expect a good joke to come out of it. That’s what “silent”
cartoons aim for, physical and situational humor. Plus it’s got a little dust to it so your “funny”
might not be the type of funny the short was aiming for.But it’s all good
More like
“Prison” - and I get the feeling that Nick would have simply broken down instead of digging!
But
then again, he IS a PIXAR character, and they are mighty resilient . . . .
Haha – “broken down”. 
Indeed,
they are. Cartoons can do anything, even though Nick probably wouldn’t be classified as a “true”
cartoon. Actually, I take that back. He would be.
Who directed Knick Knack anyways?
I absolutely
love this, must watch it about once a month at least 
I just love the way the credits have blah blah
over it, a phenomenon explained by John (I think) on the commentary version of the short.
I REALLY want that music on CD.
Yeah, it would rule.
I just always want to know little details like that, where
is that music today, on some computer at Pixar. That would be so cool.
I love this one! It’s my favorite
original (not based on a movie) one! I feel so bad for that little snowman! plus I love the pyramid with
sunglasses, i dont know why. and the music! I love singing along to it!
Yeah, anyone got the story behind the two
versions. One having large errr, things, and one have smaller things.
Ha – yeah, I noticed that. I saw the “older”
version first, before I saw the…err…“revised” version. I know where to view the older version, if
anyone would like me to tell.
I didn’t realise there even was an older version! I’d love to see it.
Can you make a screenshot to compare the two please. And
send me the link.
lizardgirl: Yep, there are two of them – the older being a tad bit
more…“revealing” than the latter.
luxo: Haha…I wonder if I
should?
Ok, you do this:
- Pop in the first disc of your [i]Toy Story
2[/i] dvd (if you have it).
2. Go to Scene Selection and click on the
part where Ham is skipping through the channels on Andy’s tv.
3. If you have a play-by-play button on your
dvd remote – the kind of button that will let you play any film/dvd frame-by-frame --, click it.
4. Either
the thing will play-by-play by itself, or you’ll have to keep clicking the thing yourself, but either
way…it’ll work. Just keep skipping/watching until a frame from Knick-Knack
appears on the screen. It will be a frame with the girl in it.
Enjoy. 
Ooooh…I really want to do that, now…Darn geography coursework. grumbles I’ll
try and do it tomorrow, but you’re just making me curious with your chuckling and everything!
Don’t worry, you’ll get to see it!
