This is worth a visit. The three short 3-D films are fun.
One is Get A Horse, a vintage Mickey Mouse cartoon that cleverly transitions back and forth between black and white and color. (Walt Disney actually provides the voice of Mickey Mouse.) The second is Feast, a heartwarming animated film about a Boston terrier with a passion for "people food", his master and a love interest. The third is Piper, a cute film about a hungry baby sandpiper bird who has to overcome his fear of the ocean. These are the films showing as of January, 2019. From what I understand, they will rotate but I don't know when that will be.
I wouldn't bother with a Fastpass for this attraction. You all usually wind up waiting (and standing) in the same pre-show area anyway. The theater is good-sized and holds a large number of guests. Suitable for all ages. Kids and adults will love the animation.
It's a nice seated break from all the walking, and cool and comfortable on a hot day.
Pros:
Cute vintage and newer animated short films. Suitable for everyone. Nice to take a break from walking. Cool and comfy theater.Cons:
If you happen to arrive when the theater doors have just closed and you have to wait for the next showing, there is no seating in the pre-show area. There's some sort of entertainment to watch on elevated TV screens, but it's a long and uninteresting 17-20 minute wait.Reviewed by colemamma Review Date: 12/31/2019

This was a surprise. We almost skipped this, but decided that it would be nice to sit and get out of the hot sun. Three short films that were really cute and worth the time. The theater is nicely air conditioned and there was plenty of seating to spread out. The seats in the middle are the best experience because the theater does have some interactive elements- floors that rumble, mist of water. We rode this in 2018 and liked it so much we made sure to ride again for our 2019 visit. Not worth doing more than one time per visit because the movies will likely be the same your entire visit.
Pros:
Air Conditioning, cute movies, never very busyCons:

Disney Pixar short film festival is where you you sit in a theatre and watch 3 short films. Everybody will like it because little kids will enjoy the funny bits in the shorts adults and older kids will enjoy the history and how filming worked back in the day from the short get a horse.Its also my favourite show in the whole of Walt Disney World.
Pros:
It’s really funny , really cool how they make the characters come out of the screen and all of the family will enjoy it.Cons:

This is a really cute collection of some of Disney's short films, and is great for kids. Personally, I think once you have seen it once it is pretty miss-able, but it is a very nice attraction if you need to waste some time between fastpasses or need some air conditioning.
Pros:
Really cute films, and a great way to spend some time in air conditioning. Really good way of using up spare time.Cons:
Not the best way to spend your time in Epcot, and once you've seen the films once or twice there's not much need to see them againReviewed by MetallicSplinter Review Date: 07/27/2020

Not something I would go out of my way to do, but if you have time and checked everything else off your list, I would pay a visit. The shorts are cute, entertaining, and don't take much time out of your day. A great place to get out of the rain, get some A/C, or wait out for a dining reservation.
Pros:
Great for killing time.Cons:
Not innovative. You've probably seen these shorts before.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/29/2020

Really unique! Shows a lot of short Disney films that are really entertaining! Great to do if in a rain storm or after figment.
