It isn’t just a jokey aside to Inside Out, it’s a legitimate mini-sequel that checks in on the characters after the action of the movie, and actually moves the story forward slightly, past its seemingly final point of closure. These shorts were primarily intended as DVD bonuses, to give buyers some extra incentive - fun little returns to a world, but without much depth or significance.īut something changed a bit with Riley’s First Date?, the 2015 Inside Out short. The same went for shorts like Jack-Jack Attack, BURN-E, and Party Central, which told jokey side stories from The Incredibles, WALL-E, and Toy Story, respectively.
spinoff Mike’s New Car, or Finding Nemo’s hybrid goof Exploring the Reef, didn’t mess with that tradition at all - apart from bringing back the movie’s characters, they barely intersected with the films at all, and certainly didn’t have much to do with the originating movies’ plots. Early Pixar shorts, like the Monsters, Inc. Pixar’s eventual parent company, Disney, had always wrapped up its stories with “happily ever after” endings. When Pixar first started making short film spinoffs and sequels to their feature films, the company added an odd new dynamic to the entire realm of popular animated movies.
