An Excruciatingly Cute Octopus Gets His Christmas Wish



This little octopus wants to go places! A young boy is hijacked by the totally adorable sea creature while on vacation, and ends up taking him home. The octopus loves seeing and learning about the new things in the city, but he loves Christmas more than anything. There is no dialogue, yet it's obvious that the boy and the octopus communicate with each other. I won't tell you how it ends, but the piece of paper you see at 3:04 explains. I had to back the video up to take another look at it.

This holiday short is from Disney, which explains the constant reference to other Disney products, from the music to the various toys to the movie they watch together. The Boy and The Octopus was directed by Taika Waititi. I wouldn't be surprised to learn this is a test to gauge the character's appeal for possible future projects. -via (appropriately) Laughing Squid
