PixMinis Episode 15: Presto

In preparation for the release of Soul on Disney+, Arun and
Patricia decide to do a spinoff of PixMix called PixMinis where
they look back on a Pixar short every day until December 25th.
  


In this episode, they look back on the 2008 Pixar short Presto
which was paired up with the movie WALL-E. Presto is about a
rabbit named Alec Azam who wishes to get a carrot from his master
Presto DiGiotagione, a magician who is about to perform a magic
act in front of a live audience. Alec isn't happy that he's being
ignored so he humiliates Presto by refusing to be pulled out of
the magic hat and puts him through pain and agony.
  The short was praised by critics and fans saying that
it was just as good as WALL-E and a great humorous appetizer for
the quiet, atmospheric film it was paired up with. It was
nominated for an Academy Award and an Annie for Best Animated
Short Film. What did Arun and Patricia think of the short? Listen
and find out.
