Day & Night Trailers

When Day, a sunny fellow, encounters Night, a stranger of distinctly darker moods, sparks fly! Day and Night are frightened and suspicious of each other at first, and quickly get off on the wrong foot. But as they discover each other's unique qualities--and come to realize that each of them offers a different window onto the same world-the friendship helps both to gain a new perspective.

Reviews
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
SnoopyStyle Day and Night are two beings who project vistas of daytime and nighttime on their bodies. They are as different as night and day but eventually they find similarities in their opposites. There is a quote from self-help guru Wayne Dyer and the two characters find common ground in the dusk of the sunset.It's trying to say something. I'm guessing followers of Dyer would be crying over the profound message of the movie. I don't know Dyer from the average Joe. It's just a bunch of prosaic mumble jumble to me. In the end, it's an intriguing idea that is more showy than actually profound or compelling.
FilmBuff1994 Day and Night is a hilarious short and I would say one of Pixars best shorts yet,for a change instead of the usual computer animation this is shown in 2-D (with some computer animation as well)which is an enjoyable change for Pixar.Day,a guy whos inside of his body is daytime and Night,a guy whos inside of his body is night time don't get along very well and try to get each other jealous by showing what there time has and what there one hasn't,for example,Day has a girl at the beach in a bikini and when Night tries it,it just shows a queit dark beach with no one there,simply hilarious.
Polaris_DiB Day & Night THIS is why I love Pixar's imagination and storytelling techniques mixed with the best technical product they can offer. They take 3D animation and make a movie entirely about very traditional looking, 2D flat characters--the 3D is the landscape seen through their silhouettes, the action is all two dimensional against black. Honestly amazing and original.Unfortunately, Pixar's shorts are so successful in my mind precisely because they rely on telling a story without dialog, usually utilizing sound for comedic effect instead. This time they just had to go and insert a message stated directly to the viewer right into the movie, instead of presenting their message in its own way. I think the whole radio moment could have been completely edited out, and they go right on into the sunrise/sunset juxtaposition that was so much more creative and beautiful.--PolarisDiB
MisterWhiplash Two side of the coin, day and night, appear as characters and look on at one another in awe and jealousy. That sounds like the simple of this latest Pixar short, appearing before Toy Story 3, but it's got a lot more sophistication, humor, and nuttiness going on than most other Pixar shorts. It also does something I've never seen from the production company: they have 2D, traditional hand-drawn animation! Sort of. Well, what happens is we see a landscape of day, and night, and they're in the traditional Pixar computer-animation. But then two figures, who are kind of blobs with eyes and noses and mouths, appear as the day and night fill up their bodies? This is less confusing than it sounds: like other Pixar shorts it takes an idea and runs with it, feeling complete as a story. But this time, as a difference, there's some smarter, edgier humor even than usual (and I've seen plenty from these shorts). Best is when the 'Night' figure looks on at 'Day' as a bunch of girls in bikinis (and one just sunning herself) are by a pool, but then when he/it looks on him/itself, the pool is closed. Also great is how a radio station and broadcast is used, sounding like it's out of the Twilight Zone. It's an ingenious little movie.
