They started by producing a series of short films featuring a character named Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. However, they lost the rights to Oswald, which led Walt Disney to create a new character - Mickey Mouse. In 1928, the first synchronized sound cartoon, \"Steamboat Willie,\" was released, introducing audiences to Mickey Mouse. This iconic short film propelled Disney Studios to success, and Mickey Mouse quickly became a beloved character. Throughout the 1930s, the studio continued making innovative animated films, including the first full-color cartoon, \"Flowers and Trees.\" In 1937, Disney released its first full-length animated feature film, \"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,\" which was a monumental achievement and marked a significant milestone for the studio. Following this success, Disney continued to produce beloved classics like \"Pinocchio,\" \"Fantasia,\" \"Dumbo,\" and \"Bambi\" in the 1940s. In the 1950s, Disney ventured into live-action films and produced a series of highly successful movies, including \"Treasure Island\" and \"20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.\" The studio also expanded its entertainment empire by opening Disneyland in 1955, the first-ever theme park of its kind. During the 1960s and 1970s, Disney Studios experienced a resurgence in animated films with hits like \"101 Dalmatians,\" \"The Jungle Book,\" and \"The Aristocats.\" In the 1980s and 1990s, the studio produced a string of animated classics, including \"The Little Mermaid,\" \"Beauty and the Beast,\" \"Aladdin,\" and \"The Lion King.\" In addition to animated films, Disney also acquired other production companies, such as Pixar Animation Studios in 2006 and Marvel Entertainment in 2009. These acquisitions strengthened Disney's position in the industry and enabled the creation of successful franchises like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In recent years, Disney has continued to produce blockbuster hits, including live-action adaptations of its animated classics and new installments in popular franchises such as \"Star Wars\" and \"Frozen.\" Disney+ was launched in 2019, offering a streaming service with a vast library of Disney content.

The story revolves around a race car named Lightning McQueen, voiced by Owen Wilson, who finds himself in the small town of Radiator Springs while on his way to the Piston Cup Championship. As he interacts with the town's quirky inhabitants, Lightning learns valuable life lessons about friendship, humility, and the importance of slowing down to appreciate the journey. The film's unique blend of humor, heartwarming storytelling, and visually stunning animation made it a hit with audiences and critics alike. The success of the first film led to the release of \"Cars 2\" in 2011 and \"Cars 3\" in 2017. In \"Cars 2,\" Lightning McQueen and his tow truck friend Mater, voiced by Larry the Cable Guy, embark on an international adventure filled with espionage, intrigue, and high-speed racing. The third installment, \"Cars 3,\" sees an older Lightning McQueen struggling to keep up with a new generation of technologically advanced race cars. As he faces the possibility of retirement, Lightning must rediscover his passion for racing and learn from a new mentor, Cruz Ramirez, to regain his competitive edge. Both sequels expanded the Cars universe, introducing new characters and locations while maintaining the franchise's core themes of friendship, perseverance, and personal growth. In addition to the Cars series, DisneyToon Studios produced a spin-off franchise called \"Planes,\" which takes place in the same universe. The first film, released in 2013, follows Dusty Crophopper, a crop-dusting plane with dreams of becoming a racing champion. Despite his fear of heights and lack of experience, Dusty's determination and the support of his friends help him overcome obstacles and compete in the prestigious Wings Around the Globe race. A sequel, \"Planes: Fire & Rescue,\" was released in 2014, focusing on Dusty's transition from racing to aerial firefighting. While the Planes series did not achieve the same level of critical acclaim as the Cars films, it still found success with younger audiences and expanded the world of anthropomorphic vehicles." ## Disneyland Attractions Disneyland Attractions: sort_title: +_04 Disneyland Attractions summary: "The movies that started it all.
