It’s Friday, and time to take a look at what’s been added onto Disney+ in the United States, which includes lots of classic Disney shorts and much more.

Here’s the rundown:

The Amazing Spider-Man 2

It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than himself. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: Oscorp.

BARNYARD OLYMPICS (1932)

Mickey and Pete go head to head in a variety of sporting events (running, rowing, vaulting and a wild bicycle race finale), as the entire barnyard (including Minnie and Horace Horsecollar) turns out to cheer them on.  Pete resorts to cheating but Mickey wins in the end.

DONALD’S COUSIN GUS (1939)

Donald Duck’s gluttonous cousin, Gus Goose, comes for a visit and practically eats him out of house and home.  When the direct approach to getting rid of his voracious houseguest fails, Donald resorts to desperate measures to dislodge him.

DONALD’S NEPHEWS (1938)

Donald attempts to practice child psychology (with a book called Modern Child Training) on his three visiting nephews – Huey, Dewey and Louie – who love to create mischief and play tricks on their long suffering Uncle Donald.  The book has little impact on the troublemaking trio, who wreak havoc on Donald and his house.

THE FLYING JALOPY (1943)

Donald Duck buys a rattletrap used airplane from devious proprietor Ben Buzzard, who tricks the unsuspecting duck into making Ben the beneficiary in case of an accident.  Ben then leads Donald on a reckless flight, trying to make the plane crash so that he collect a fortune from Donald’s misfortune.

GOOFY AND WILBUR (1939)

Goofy launched a series of his own solo cartoons with this inventive short film which finds him working in concert with his pet grasshopper pal, Wilbur, to lure fish to his net.  Not realizing the harm that Wilbur is in until it is too late, Goofy springs into action to try and rescue his friend from an uncertain fate with a hungry frog.

MICKEY’S STEAM ROLLER (1934)

Mickey Mouse is driving a steamroller when his rambunctious twin nephews, Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, accompanied by Minnie, stroll by.  While Mickey flirts with Minnie, the twins hijack the machine and set out on a path of destruction with Mickey in hot pursuit. Mickey winds up being chased by the boys, resulting in a chaotic but happy moment.
