I saw this today before Brave. I was confused at first and thought it was Brave, like the dad when he was a kid or something, but the time period was wrong. 
Then when it showed them in the boat, I thought the old guy was two people kissing. 
I’m just weird or something.
La Luna was adorable! I saw it in 3D, and once again, Pixar proves themselves to be continually awesome! That kid is so so cute!! X3 And like Brave, it has an enchanting magical background feel that I just love! Of course, Pixar always feels magical… anyway, I was smiling and in awe the entirety of the short.
And I had the same thing happen with Lifted, Amy43! I thought that Linguini was going to be abducted and dropped into the middle of Paris or something… 
I thought this was a pretty good short. The animation looks pretty to look at, almost resenting something paintery in a way.
I thought this was a great little short. The animation was definitely a highlight and I liked the characters.
Hm, I’d have thought there’d be more reviews here of La Luna now that it’s come out (at least in North America). Well, I really liked it, and as I said before, thought Michael did a great job on the score. A nice, beautifully-done little short. Interestingly, when La Luna finished, the person I went to the movies with leaned over to me and said “That was different… usually the Pixar shorts are really humorous. But I really liked it.” Never really occured to me, but I think that’s right… most of the Pixar shorts have been humorous ones. But nice to see something wonderfully done like this.
So I walked into the movie theater a bit late, and there it was: Brave. They started out with her as a little girl, being rowed to safety by her papa and gramps. Oops, the main feature hadn’t started yet, this must be the short, got confused, I managed to regain my composure.
Ok! It’s been out for 2 weeks now and there are 5, count 'em 5, reviews of a short that’s been talked about here for years, one by a guy who already saw the whole thing during musical production.
Crowd report. The audience really enjoyed this short, with laughter and swooning, and there were comments after the main feature about the high expectations they had for Pixar shorts, as if they had already heard the dope about Brave, that the trailer for it was fairly unimpressive. It was essentially without dialogue, as so many of Pixar’s shorts are. I laughed when reading here that J. Lasseter was “annoyed” with the filler gibberish dialogue early in production.
Like I said in the Brave review, this short was beautiful. I’ve seen it twice now. It does lack most of the humor usually seen, altho don’t forget how well the brooms were used to humor’s advantage.
Somehow it just seems to me that the years 2003-2009 were Pixar’s zenith, shorts and mains. These were the years of peak creative ‘letting loose’. The safety gleaned from monetary and critical success allowed for risk taking. La Luna was mostly created during that time frame.
I saw this short film. Honestly, this was the best one ever; I think it actually tops what is now my second favorite short film, Partly Cloudy. It was soooooooooo adorable! I mostly enjoyed the whole thing about the [spoil]boy, father, and grandpa cleaning up the stars on the moon to turn it into a crescent…[/spoil] what an amusing (and original) idea; LOVED IT!!!
I too greatly enjoyed the short. Honestly I thought it was just adorable 
At first I wasnt sure exactly where they were going with it in terms of what I thought was gonna happen. Which is a good thing.
