When Disney Got Adult and Trippy

I tried to watch Fantasia as a child a few times, but was never able to make it all the way through. It remains sort of a misunderstood anomaly on the shelf of early Disney movies.

Haven't given it an honest try in a few years. Perhaps some 'adult substances' would help. I still enjoy most of the others.

I usually skip the Rite of Spring, but love every other piece. Probably because I was trying to watch the visuals too hard instead of listening.

But the important thing to remember about Fantasia is that it's not a coherent story, it's a set of shorts.

You can watch subsets, skip some, or really do what you want. Just watch Night on Bald Mountain/Ave Maria, or the Dance of the Hours, or whatever you want. And give Fantasia 2000 a shot. Not as good, but still fun. Firebird was great.

adult substances make most disney movies better. especially the live-action movies.
