Retro Rocket Cartoon!

A few weeks ago I went to Walt Disney World with the family. It was a great trip, and on the bus ride to the airport after it was over, I got a final treat! The bus service was provided by Disney, and they showed a recent cartoon on the bus video monitors.
They showed this:

As you can see, a certain very important mouse is piloting a certain very important rocket. Add in Pluto and a little slapstick comedy and you have a nice updated nod to some Disney classics. It is interesting to note that TWA is now TVA, but I guess they didn't want to ruffle any copyright feathers (even though there is no TWA now...)


Until next time, fly 'em fast and high!

  2. Well, it's a little tough to get the lunar frost to turn the turbines...
