My Review of Dancing with the Cars & Unparalleled Parking Cars Disney+ 2021

[@rhr.]

I watched both of them, they’re actually pretty good! I prefer Unparalleled Parking, but a thing that i kinda disliked is that there is literally no dialogue, which felt really weird. There is potential for dialogue but i still liked both shorts anyways.

[@COOLectionTV]

Yea, I really liked the animation in these shorts. I'm just unhappy that Pixar never gave any hint that they would be silent. If they had marketed them as being silent short films, I think these would be considered great additions to the Cars franchise. Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed.

At least i'm glad CHick Hicks returns in Unparalleled Parking!

I really liked them, I was smiling the whole time. I was surprised that they didn't talk too but it wasn't a bad surprise to me. It was more of an interesting surprise. It's true that no talking is a bit weird. But I don't hate it, even if I would have preferred talking, I think it gives a bit of character to the shorts. It truly gives the "short" vibe, instead of making it look too short and having to squeeze a dialog in it. Otherwise, the shorts are perfect! Could've been longer though (that's what she said) :) I think that McQueen having his normal paint job is normal. It was a temporary tribute to Doc. Radiator Spring having no customer may also be because it was a short and they didn't think it would be necessary to include it. Until the series or a future movie, we can't really know if they didn't include customers because of practicality or because the town is dying again. Making the town die like that would be weird to me, cuz it's sudden and unexplained. McQueen suddenly lost everything? Seems weird to me. I liked how they all stayed in character, especially Chick, he's always trying to be like McQueen but always fails x) I think the cozy cone missing is for practicality, it was probably getting in the way and made the scene less "readable". With the cozy cone gone, the foreground is more separated and therefore more readable.

Just watched these, I was really excited for them and had plans for several videos on these...and then I was very disappointed by the lack of dialogue. Definitely had quite a bit of missed potential. These were still pretty fun, and cute little stories, but definitely a bit disappointing

[@nostall2385]

It was because it was last minute I heard

[@COOLectionTV]

Same here. I was planning on doing more with these on KZbin, and I'm very disappointed that there isn't much to elaborate on from here. On their own, they were decent, but with the context Pixar gave us in the trailers, they really overhyped these shorts. Thanks for watching.

[@GregoryAmicar57]

Or we can make our own dialogue for it. We can voice the characters

[@nostall2385]

@@GregoryAmicar57 ooh good idea

[@rhr.]

I was kinda surprised almost none of the shorts have any dialogue, only the Toy Story ones.

[@racegrooves]

I watched all ten shorts plus #11 (which is a compilation of all ten back-to-back). I was hoping for a hidden Todd The Pizza Planet Truck but I don't think he was hidden anywhere.

[@COOLectionTV]

Yea, there were a lack of Easter Eggs in these which I found surprising since the series is called 'Pixar Popcorn,' but they were still nice to see and the animation looked great. I wonder who John Ratzenberger voiced haha. Thanks for watching.

@@COOLectionTV but the voice actors went on a coffee break

[@GregoryAmicar57]

I saw Dancing with The Cars and it was really cool! Sure there wasn't any dialogue but it was really awesome! Next time when I watch them, I can put my own dialogue in so it can be more better.

[@COOLectionTV]

I agree, but I wish Pixar had made it clear in the announcements and trailers that they wouldn't have dialogue. I think it made us assume that these would be bigger projects than they were. Thanks for watching.

[@GregoryAmicar57]

I mean, there wasn't any dialogue in them but still they were awesome

[@lmq953]

Nice vid you are now really active on KZbin 👍🙂

[@COOLectionTV]

Thanks so much. I've been trying harder to be more active and now that the Disney+ Cars shorts are out and the hype for them is over, I plan on experimenting with other kinds of videos in the world of Cars. I was thinking some more theories, speculations, as well as informational and educational content on the Cars franchise's history. As time goes on, I'll continue to balance these with reviews, but I'm so glad to be active again. Thanks for watching.

[@JintyandPugFan20]

It’s possible that these episodes might have happened before the events of Cars 3

[@COOLectionTV]

True, but keep in mind that Miss Fritter was never seen prior to Cars 3 and McQueen didn't recognize her in Cars 3. Plus, Chick and McQueen are in their Cars 3 paint jobs and McQueen first gets that look in Cars 3. I think Dancing with the Cars could take place before Cars 3. Then again we don't have much context so anything is possible. Thanks for watching.

[@rhr.]

I doubt these shorts happened before Cars 3.

[@svis6888]

It happened after Cars 3 cuz the school bus is there

[@TheCarsShifter]

Excellent video, very well said. I see it as there are many ways to interpret it, good or bad but so many elements go into each. Right now I'm in the middle as I watch them again, and again. I have experimented in silent stop motions, and for the official Cars that is very good to happen eventually but all signs in the trailers pointed to voices which I think is why its hard to settle in the fact that there is none. The sound effects, animation is great and the concepts are okay, but when turned into this makes it a completely different thing. There are many factors that play into it, the dancing concept is fine if done right, Ramone and Flo should have had a greater role, the pitties feel random but understandable, DJ could have been added, it could have been completely different with dialogue, Miss Fritter was bad but it gave us Chick, it has a town focus, no Flo at the Cozy Cone, driving school implementation, driving school concept, decent gags, and the fact that silent stuff can be great and I think it was done quite good. It's just that in that trailer, they promoted it in such a specific way and we even had word from Cruz's voice which doesn't relate but still remains a mystery. So that's what makes it so hard to take in. If we knew, it would have been fine because they are very good shorts for silent films I must say. With or without dialogue, they could have gone in completely different directions. Which one is better, I don't know but aside from promos, it is nice to see a silent take and it was executed fairly well in the character movement and car sounds, but they made a big mistake in marketing which is why this is so awkward especially since it's been so long since Cars 3. And I still have no clue why Cruz wasn't there which I didn't notice at first. The animation is also something I want to point out, the inconsistencies feel off but I completely understand it is a minor short, some things I just don't get at all like the Cozy Cone and Curios Shop ashplant. Right now, we will remain very cautiously optimistic for the series but this is still a good short despite the marketing, I completely agree with your points.

[@COOLectionTV]

Thank you. It is still nice that we got something. After all, it has been over 3 years since Cars 3 came out so it's a long awaited series of shorts. I would be fine with these shorts if Pixar had just promoted them as being silent. The fact that they acted like they would be just like all of their other movie shorts like Mater & the Ghostlight, Jack Jack Attack, and the Toy Story Toons with dialogue makes them very underwhelming. It was nice to see the Driving School concept make it into this though like you said. I don't understand what happened to Cruz. You could say she's away at a race, but then the townsfolk are her pit crew and McQueen is back in his Rusteze paint job, implying that he still races too. I don't want to say Cruz should've been in these but she should have over Miss Fritter. I'm still cautiously optimistic about the series, but I hope they don't overhype it and trick us into thinking it is way better than it ends up being. Thanks for watching.

[@mommasyoutubechannel3464]

The voice actors went on a break in they didn't voice the cars they were for a while now

[@Fab129]

Pixar dropped the ball a bit but it was an enjoyable watch to see them

[@COOLectionTV]

I really just wish that Pixar had made is clear from the start that there would be no dialogue. These shorts are still very enjoyable and they are growing on me the more I watch them. Thanks for watching.

[@JORGELAYALA-xj2ny]

I’ve seen both and i think it pretty good

[@COOLectionTV]

Yea, I agree. I just wish Pixar promoted them as lacking dialogue so we would've known what we were in for, rather than showing off a bunch of cool shots, making us expect more than there was. I'm glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for watching.

@@COOLectionTV what îs lightyear?

[@rangerzickle3350]

You could look at these shorts as a short continuation of there respected movies and then hate them for it not being that or maybe they were just nice stand alone shorts that have no continuity to them. Nice little short stories where the creators can do whatever they wanted without having to worry about continuity or following a story. It’s just going to bug me that people are going complain and hate on a good thing just because it’s not what they wanted.

[@COOLectionTV]

I completely agree. I just wish that they had promoted them as being silent in the trailer. That's all. In If they had done that, I wouldn't be complaining. I mean in the trailers they show Ducky and Bunny talking, as well as Dory giggling so it would only be logical that all of the shorts would have dialogue. I suppose it's more of a marketing issue, but it does effect my overall opinion. Thanks for watching.

[@rangerzickle3350]

@@COOLectionTV I’m glad we found a middle ground. In the marketing, as the trailer and the shorts surprised me. But at the same time you were asking about the continuity of these shorts and where the placement of them would lie within the story of their movies. All while saying they negatively affect your opinion on them after realizing that they don’t have continuity to them. Your very welcome BTW I really like your content.

Yea. Then again, with the lack of dialogue it would've been the perfect opportunity to include Cruz so I feel mixed. I just can't believe that Miss Fritter and Chick made it into a RS short before Cruz did. Thanks for watching.

Silent Shorts have been there before, but it makes sense since these were made back in 2020.
