Dear Basketball: a retiring Kobe Bryant reads a love letter to his sport and reflects on his life-long dreams of playing professional basketball. I am surprised to report that this was probably my favorite of the shorts (the soaring John Williams score doesn't hurt). I just wish it hadn't been quite so Kobe, because he appalls me as a person.
Revolting Rhymes: this is an animated retelling of the Roald Dahl retelling of several classic fairy tales. While cute and clever, it was too long.
Lou: a cute tale of the playground bully being taught a lesson. Pixar always does a good job.
Negative Space: a sweet retrospective about a son's relationship with his father.
Garden Party: an unfortunate (and gross) political and social commentary.
