Genre: Animated, Musical, Fantasy Year: 1940 Fantasia is an unparalleled work of art and my favorite Disney film of all time. I am sure a lot of you will scoff at its placement above the greats of the Disney Renaissance and the prime Pixar films, but this movie truly moves me the most out of any of them. Maybe it's because it is what sparked my love of classical music, maybe it's because I probably watched it more than anything else as a kid. But Fantasia is the kind of movie that gets me excited to have children of my own to share this experience with them. Virtually every scene in Fantasia is iconic for one reason or another. The Sorcerer's Apprentice is creepy and thrilling, the Pastoral Symphony is appropriately peaceful and bucolic, the Nutcracker is perhaps the finest hand-drawn animated ever, the Rite of Spring is all of earthly existence in like 6 minutes, and Bald Mountain is simultaneously horrifying and uplifting--the perfect ending to the film. Fantasia is, in my opinion, the height of animated artistry, and something that perhaps will never be matched again. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...
