I can’t wait to see this on a movie theater!
…If the the theaters are not closed by the god-damned swine flu outbreak, that is :-/
Great, keep lying to children.
That aside, it was okay.
as usual …. love the animation …. very cute :-)
oh that’s just mean, i must see more!
Can’t tell much from what is shown.
Okay my first thoughts are a drunken stork is going to make a wrong delivery.

“The Stork Market”, Famous Studios, 1949. Check it out!
looks charming!
congratulations pete sohn!
Wait, first it was inflating your wife’s belly by blowing on her finger, now storks with bundles? I’m so confused about this baby-having thing.
@Pedro- if you been keeping up with press releases for the short, you’d know what it’s about.
Also, even though a stork delivering a baby is a common symbol, it’s not entirely healthy to pander to kids who haven’t yet had ‘the talk’.
lets hope there’s no sexual refrences or innuendos in “Partly Cloudy”.
I don’t know why my wife complains so much about child birth. Looks pretty easy to me.
“Okay my first thoughts are a drunken stork is going to make a wrong delivery.”
- Several Warner Bros. cartoons — including Stork Naked and Apes of Wrath — cast a stork as a perpetually drunken employee of a baby-delivery service. Always losing his cargo en route to the intended recipients, the stork would find a replacement (always the wrong species) and deliver it to his clients. The stork was a bit player in these shorts, appearing at only the beginning and the end (where he returns to correct his mistake); the rest of the cartoons played out the interaction between the parents and the mismatched “child” they attempted to raise.[11]
“I do all the work, and the fathers get all the credit! Umbriago!”
That’s why I have a stork trap. Contraception!
Seriously, gorgeous everything in this clip.
joe, don’t forget Disney’s (Bill Peet’s?) Lambert The Sheepish Lion.
Yes, yet another lie told to children, just like the Easter Bunny, Santa, religion..and now this.
No in all seriousness, this looks like typical awesome Pixar to me :}
but where do baby storks come from?
Chimney sweepers. They place them in the nests on the chimneys.
Is there a tie-in with those Littlest Pet Shop toys? Cute.
“Dumbo” had it’s own stork/baby delivery service scene with wonderful voicing by Sterling Holloway. Neat clip, tho!
“Great, keep lying to children.”
They also could have made some sort of animated porn. Thank God they avoid being literal.
But – hey – this is Cartoon Brew: the place where every post is a chance to bitter readers show how they hate everything.
Disney are always sending kids the WRONG message.
Joe: “but where do baby storks come from?”
Answer: (according to an article about the short at slashfilm.com). “cloud people sculpt babies from clouds and bring them to life.”
I’ll bet sailing thru the clouds looks awesome in 3D!
baby sharks are cool :-)
Wow, it looks absolutely beautiful.
Anyone else notice Mrs. Incredible in there? (I think that was her)
Yep, that does look like Mrs Incredible
Steve Segal: Then do clouds make baby clouds?
If the answer is YES, than clouds are the only self replicating species in the Pixar “Partly Cloudy” multi-verse.
Do the clouds have sex? Or they replicate through mitosis?
Congratulations Pete Sohn!!! Maybe the world finally realize what a stud you are. I can’t wait to see your magic.
