    Good!

    More ambitious in scope than any of its other animated films (before or to come), Disney's 1940 Fantasia was a dizzying, magical, and highly enjoyable marriage of classical music and animated images. Fantasia 2000 features some breathtaking animation and storytelling, and in a few spots soars to wonderful high points, but it still more often than not has the feel of walking in its predecessor's footsteps as opposed to creating its own path. A family of whales swimming and soaring to Respighi's The Pines of Rome is magical to watch, but ends all too soon; a forest sprite's dance of life, death, and rebirth to Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring too clearly echoes the original Fantasia's Night on Bald Mountain/Ave Maria sequence. But when it's on target, Fantasia 2000 is glorious enough to make you giddy. Hans Christian Andersen's "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" is a perfect narrative set to Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2, and Donald Duck's guest appearance as the assistant to Noah (of ark fame) set to Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance marches is a welcome companion piece (though not an equal) to The Sorcerer's Apprentice, the one original Fantasia piece included here. The high point of Fantasia 2000, though, is a fantastic day-in-the-life sequence of 1930s New York City set to Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and animated in the style of cartoonist Al Hirschfeld; it's a perfect melding of music, story, and animation. Let's hope future Fantasias (reportedly in the works) take a cue from the best of this compilation. The music is provided by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, conducted by James Levine, interspersed with negligible intros by Steve Martin, Bette Midler, Itzhak Perlman, James Earl Jones, and others.

    Surprising

    We had two kids at home and I went to rent to one thinking it was a typical Disney movie. I was wrong, but the kids still liked it.

    I was surprise by the musical choice in this one. Great classical pieces. And the animation is very well done. Some segments better than others.

    I got to see this one on a regular tv-set, but I guess you should try to see it on an IMAX screen, or at least a cinema screen.

    Out of 100, I gave it 81. That's good for *** out of ****.

    Seen at home, in Toronto, on June 15th, 2002.

    Celebrities...ugh...

    The celebrity hosts spoiled it for me. The animation and the music are gorgeous; hosts were unnecessary. Walt Disney didn't bother having Clark Gable or Rita Hayworth host the original.

    Beautiful Sequel of a Classic Animation

    "Fantasia 2000" is a beautiful sequel of the classic animation "Fantasia" (1940). The conductor is James Levine and each segment is introduced by the actor Steve Martin, the violinist Itzhak Perlman, the actress Bette Midler, the entertainer Penn & Teller, the actor James Earl Jones, the conductor Quincy Jones and the actress Angela Lansbury. The audio is in DTS and THX and the program is the following:

    (1) Symphony No. 5 in C minor-I. Allegro con brio, by Ludwig van Beethoven.

    (2) Pines of Rome, by Ottorino Respighi.

    (3) Rhapsody in Blue, by George Gershwin.

    (4) Piano Concerto No. 2 in F Major-I. Allegro, by Dmitri Shostakovich.

    (5) The Carnival of the Animals, Finale, by Camille Saint-Saëns.

    (6) The Sorcerer's Apprentice, by Paul Dukas.

    (7) Pomp and Circumstance – Marches 1, 2, 3 and 4, by Edward Elgar.

    (8) Firebird Suite – 1919 Version, by Igor Stravinsky.

    My vote is eight.

    I love the Gershwin section

    It's a reworking and remaking of the classic Disney Fantasia. The first superior aspect of this one compared to the original is the shorter length. Not all of it works but it works well enough to be compelling throughout. I love the George Gershwin section. It is obviously NYC but I also love the 1930s era. I love the animation style. I couldn't stop smiling and it has some great laughs. There is the redo of Mickey Mouse in The Sorcerer's Apprentice. It looks a little brighter without taking away the animation style. Donald Duck in Noah's Ark is funny. Overall, there are some slower sections but I just love the Gershwin section so much.

    • Trivia
      The Broadway ending sequence of "Rhapsody in Blue" contained so many different colors (over 200) that the CAPS system had trouble rendering it, causing delays in the production of Tarzan (1999).
    • Goofs
      In "Rhapsody in Blue", a sign inside Monica's cafe reads "2 EGGS ANY STYLE 25c". A sign outside the cafe reads "2 EGGS 10c".
    • Quotes

      James Earl Jones: [introducing the Carnival of the Animals] These drawing boards have been the birthplace of some of the most beloved animal characters of all time. So it's no surprise that they choose for our next segment, "The Carnival of the Animals" by Camille Saint-Saëns. Here the sensitive strains of impressionistic music combine with the subtle artistry of the animator to finally answer that age old question: "What is man's relationship to nature?"

      [is handed a piece of paper]

      James Earl Jones: Oh, sorry... That age old question: "What would happen if you gave a yo-yo to a flock of flamingos?"

      [turns to look off-camera]

      James Earl Jones: Who wrote this?

    • Crazy credits
      Right after the final credits, you hear Steve Martin's voice, wondering out loud if he's still on camera, then realizes it's the end of the movie. He then asks the audience, 'Can I have a ride home?'
