Best thing I've seen in a while! This Short should also move to Disney Channel, not just Theaters for Wish!
If TDO can give this classic feel to Luminous, It's already better than Harm! Even if it's in WSL.....

Really cute short, even if there were some glaring omissions and I felt the newer characters were focused on a bit too much. 9/10.

I was actually happy at how much they focused on classic characters -- especially if we are considering the Disney Renaissance films classic characters now (and we should since they're 30 years old at this point) -- but there were plenty of older characters too.

Felt like a good mix - and started off with Tinkerbell and sort of ended with Felix a newer character. Had characters from properties not normally seen (Atlantis, Good Dinosaur, Treasure Planet, etc). Liked having Show White next to Asha - nice nods like that
Always could have more and everyone will have favorites they wish they showed more but thought they did a reasonable job

agree, I was moved, and I haven't been moved by Disney in a long time. This was long overdue and we need more of it. Felt like animation has started a new beginning tonight and maybe the company will start appreciating its roots again.
Only major animated release besides SOTS (for obvious reasons a no go) that didn't have representation was Roger Rabbit. At least in this cut - perhaps the first (13 minutes long according to Variety) cut had him in it.

Oh, right, guess it was Dinosaur - not the Good one

Roger Rabbit wasn't technically a Disney film, though (at least I don't think it was -- pretty sure it was Touchstone/Amblin rather than Disney Studios), so would make sense that they weren't included.

I saw about 15 ads for it while watching football yesterday, so it was easy to remember.

I doubt it, anyone not in that big picture at the end probably isn't in the short at all.
Right at the Top of the Show! Glad ABC didn't make us wait till some Commercial Break!…was that today?!?
So was tonight the final and only Product? Or is the 13 min one going to Theaters??

They just finished reairing it.
Tonight was the one you'll see in theaters, 13 minutes was how long the first version was without any cuts made in it, who knows if it'll get released - maybe sometime in the future.

is there a source for this length?
From an article at Variety.
"Piecing the voices and characters together in a nine-minute short was a challenge. The first cut hit the 13-minute mark. With thousands of characters to choose from, the biggest challenge wasn’t just picking the characters, it was deciding who would rise to the top."
