The Trident is a direct-to-video short film paired with the home video release of Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

Sypnosis[]

Puss in Boots, Kitty Softpaws and Perrito are gathered around the campfire. Perrito is eager to hear a story of one of Puss in Boots' deaths. He tells them the story of The Trident, his fifth death. He was battling pirates along with Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

This short came with the Puss in Boots: The Last Wish DVD. It's a little fun. The campfire isn't actually necessary and only serves to eat up the four minutes running time. I was hoping that he was trying to get somewhere fast instead of being stuffed in the cannon by his opponents. It's somewhat fun, but the list in the movie is more fun.

Trivia[]

  • Eric Bauza reprises his role as Puss in Boots from the Netflix series, The Adventures of Puss in Boots.
  • Kitty's inclusion in this short marks her first non-movie appearance.
  • The short's score, composed by Heitor Pereira, utilizes musical cues from the first Puss in Boots composed by Henry Jackman, unlike The Last Wish.
    • "A Bad Kitty" plays at the start and ends when the captain confronts Puss.
    • "Jack and Jill" is used as the leitmotif when the Three Bears Crime Family appears later on.
    • "Chasing Tail" is played in the credits.
  • Goldilocks uses the "Muppet" slur on Baby Bear like in The Last Wish.
  • This short is created by The Custom Animation team at Dreamworks Animation Glendale.
