The short takes a sweet look at fate, love at first sight, and paper airplanes, all while drawing the viewer in to a spectacular view of a city. Take a look.

I think it’s excellent, moving, the best short that I’ve seen. Exactly what Disney creates, in the simplest of things pure magic of fate itself.

Great story and the animation was spot on. To those who think this is a silly animation, IT’S ANIMATION for crying out loud. The story was great.

  Actually, just from the animation and the story, you can easily tell it was a Disney film. The beginning of the story was quite nice, but it ended very cheesy and “forced”. Far from what I could call great. Disney is simply unable to create anything special, as far as I’ve seen them. The only thing I did like was the black and white color and the impressive lighting.

    They’ve done their job if you can tell it was a Disney film.
    What kind of ending were you hoping for? The main character goes back to his menial job?
    I’d be interested in knowing what your idea of a “special” animated movie is.
