Originally shown in theaters, the cartoons feature shimmering animation atop pleasing watercolors. And though they are often filled with look gags, they’re never the least bit cynical. Destinations on this “Volume 1″ disk include Argentina, the Netherlands, Australia and Africa:
A boy finds a flying donkey and enters it in a horse urge in the charming “The Flying Gauchito,” a cartoon the whole family will delight in. Kids will crack up at the donkey; adults will like how the off-screen narrator controls the action — and often changes his mind.

All ages will also like the Pluto cartoon “In Dutch.” Pluto’s expressive face is irresistible when he gets embarrassed, cries and gets a sneaky concept. When Pluto meets a cute girl dog he gets so smitten his face nearly transforms into Goofy’s! The status has a simple arc any child can understand: Pluto and the girl are first treated unfairly by authority figures (they accidentally ring a Netherlands city’s emergency bell and salvage banished from the village) but eventually become the town heroes.
Pluto steals the indicate in his appearence with Mickey Mouse, “Mickey’s Down Under.” As Mickey battles an indignant ostrich, Pluto tries to earn a boomerang which seems to have a mind of its fill. Once it gets stuck in his mouth, Pluto’s hilarious facial expressions will tickle a viewer of any age — even a teenager.
The other cartoons are beautiful agreeable, too. Goofy’s “African Diary” combines droll animals with even sillier watch gags (the Goof does fire his rifle point blank at a rhino, though miraculously it doesn’t pick up distress) . Grandparents, or perhaps large grandparents, will care for sitting in on “A Cowboy Needs a Horse.” It’s position in a 1950s suburban home that, if you’ve been to Walt Disney World, combines the retro waiting residence of the `50s Prime Time Cafe with the eye-popping color of It’s a Petite World. And everyone will succumb to the catchy theme song. The status? A young boy’s dream-like vision of what it’s like to be a cowboy.
A recent Japanese short, “Grievance of a Starmaker” plays out like an extinct folk story. When a discouraged starmaker (Mr. Hoshi) takes his stars out of the sky — because pollution has ruined their beauty — a young boy (Yasu) volunteers to well-kept them. As a reward, the boy gets “a future as smart as the stars.” The cartoon was originally produced in Japanese but you’d never know it: the only assert comes from an off-screen (and now, American) narrator. Produced by Walt Disney Television Animation in 1992, the film’s rich compositions are some of the best things that outfit has done.
The place has one faded link. A dinky elephant lives in constant anguish of being killed in the scary, if slow-paced, “Goliath II,” a cartoon in which the characters contemplate lazily similar to those in earlier feature films. The crocodile is identical to the one in “Peter Pan.”
Disney collectors often dismiss these DVDs because the cartoons often own dust marks and other signs of age — frustrating since the company cleaned up the shorts for the earlier “Walt Disney Treasures” series. But frankly that shouldn’t discourage you. To a preschooler — or anyone watching on a backseat DVD player — it won’t matter.

Personally, I do catch the Disney Treasures tins, so for me there were only two shorts of interest in this DVD collection of 7 Disney fascinating shorts, but I decided one of those was reason enough to produce the acquire. And with that in mind, I was slightly disappointed. But more on that later.
As previously stated, this first volume of Disney’s 4 volume (so far) “It’s a Tiny World of Fun” line is a collection of seven short Disney cartoons. Six of these cartoons are theatrically released classics. The seventh is a first-see for Americans, “Grievance of a Starmaker” from 2002, and was the result of a Japanese story-writing contest. The winner’s epic was made into a Disney enchanting short, and this DVD is the first and only procedure for Americans to currently search for the short. Now, the view late the title of this DVD line and how the shorts were selected for it is that each short represents a different share of the world. Naturally, the line title is taken from that very celebrated Disney theme park ride/song, “It’s a Runt World (After All) “. Unfortunately, the song is not featured anywhere on the disc, not even on the menu, which would have been nice.
Here is the line-up:
1. “The Flying Gauchito” (South America) : This short was originally share of the 1944 feature “The Three Caballeros”, but was released as a solo short the next year. It is the narrative of a runt boy who captures a winged, flying Donkey and tries to employ him to glean a horse urge and obtain rich. A very appetizing short, but the major flaw of this collection because the print stale looks like something you’d come by on a $1.00 DVD of a public domain cartoon. The recount is shaky and loaded with artifacts. You’re better off getting this one in the context of Three Caballeros, which is a improbable film anyway. Luckily, the rest of the shorts on this disc are of proper quality.
2. “In Dutch” (Holland) : This 1946 Pluto cartoon presents his romance with Dina the Dachshund as a setup for effort. Pluto’s mistake of an accidental spurious scare causes their village to simply not pay attention to him later when the nearby dyke really springs a leak and only he and Dina know!
3. “Goliath II” (India) : All Jungle Book fanatics like myself should bask in this 1960 treat about a miniature puny elephant who is a injure to his herd until the day comes when he is the only one who can assign it. Marvelous Holloway provides his always charming narration.
4. “Mickey Down Under” (Australia) : From 1948, this classic Mickey cartoon features Pluto’s problems with Mickey’s boomerang and Mickey’s troubles with an mad mother ostrich.
5. “African Diary” (Africa) : Goofy heads out on safari accompanied by narration until a run-in with a rhino sends him packing! Hilarious Goofy antics from 1945.
6. “A Cowboy Needs a Horse” (U.S.A.) : Brimming with 50’s nostalgia, this musical treat is a boy’s fantasy of being a cowboy and done in some delightfully stylized animation from 1956. A longtime celebrated of mine.
7. “Grievance of a Starmaker” (Japan) : From 2002, this short tells the narrative of a cramped boy who wonders where all the stars have gone. He sets out to catch the outmoded starmaker, and when he does, he befriends him. It seems the starmaker is upset that pollution has dirtied his stars and no one seems to care, but through hard work, the limited boy cleans all the stars and earns them aid for the world. It’s a cute puny yarn, but feels rather rushed and while some like the animation style passe, it looked rather like simple Flash animation to me (or one of those home computer styles, I’m really not an expert on them) and not really all that charming. Not poor though.
So, there you have it. If you don’t have these shorts, this is definitely worth owning. Not that I would pay too remarkable, as it’s only around 55 minutes and has no bonus features. Incidentally, I do like the sparkling conceal art, but a laughable side brand is that pictured on the attend as a scene from “The Flying Gauchito” is actually a scene from a totally different cartoon not even on this site, “Pedro” (the exiguous airplane) from Saludos Amigos, ha (Pedro’s short is actually on It’s a Cramped World of Fun volume 2) . As for my personal issues, like I said, I already had many of these but bought it for two: The Flying Gauchito and Grievance of a Starmaker. Truth is, since I hold The Three Caballeros, I didn’t care great about getting the short version of Fying Gauchito but saw it as a bonus. I mainly bought this for Grievance. But that doesn’t excuse the dreadful quality in which Gauchito was presented, for which I’ll be docking this disc one star. But I was more disappointed in Grievance due to both how rushed and how short it was (4 minutes and 4 seconds, I beget) and how cheap the animation appeared. Stylized is one thing, but to me this unprejudiced looked cheap. Nevertheless, I do not regret buying this DVD. As a Disney completist, I had to regain Grievance for my collection, and I certainly don’t mind having backups/quicker access to the other shorts on here than fumbling through my Treasures sets. So, if you don’t have these shorts, this is worth getting, but if you have all the Treasures collections and Three Caballeros, you’ll have to resolve for yourself if you are a completist or not and NEED “Grievance of a Starmaker”.
