Fantasia 2000 is great because it has a segment starting Donald Duck that not only implies that Noah saw Donald Duck naked but God probably told Noah “Look, I’m sick of the way of the way mankind is, so grab two of every animal, your family, and Donald & Daisy Duck. Love those two”

But really, great showcase of Donald and Daisy. I remember seeing this in imax with my grandpa and siblings and just being so moved by everything. It’s genuinely heartbreaking when both Donald and Daisy think the other didn’t make it and whenever the two would pass by each other on the ark without noticing the other

And that reunion. It’s so wonderful!

Also the song Pomp and Circumstance just goes so well with the story!

I also love that the segment preceding it was the Sorcerer’s Apprentice and that the introduction to Donald’s segment had an interaction between him and Mickey. It was like the passing of the torch in a way

If they make another Fantasia, Goofy should star in his own segment

Did you know "Pomp and Circumstance" has lyrics?

Well, for some of us of A Certain Age it does.

After all this time searching for it, it turns out it was on the website of its animator, Edward Bakst: https://ideaforia.com/animation/ (It's called "The Refrigerator Song" here. It's listed with Sesame Street cartoons, but it's explicitly from The Electric Company, as the caption says)

I still hear garbled half-forgotten versions those lyrics in my head every time I hear Pomp and Circumstance.

Ok literally one person expressed an inkling of interest in Fantasia 2000, so that’s my sign to let y’all know how amazing the music and animation is.

First, the movie opens with Beethoven’s Symphony no. 5, telling a story of good and evil with butterflies and bats in an abstract style of animation.

Steve Martin comes and introduces the concept of Fantasia, then Itzhak Perlman introduces the next song: Pines of Rome, which tells the story of a pod of humpback whales, specifically two whales and their baby.

[image description: a pod of humpback whales soaring through clouds] Quincy Jones introduces Rhapsody in Blue, which tells the story of four different people who all live in New York City and all have dreams they hope to achieve.

[image description: a bunch of people are crowded in a subway car. Anyone tall enough is holding onto those handlebars that hang from the ceiling. Everyone looks grumpy, and each person is one color with various shades and tints]

Bette Midler introduces Piano Concerto No. 2, which tells the story of the Steadfast Tin Soldier.

[image description: the tin soldier, dressed in a red and white uniform, stands with a ballerina figurine. The ballerina has brown curly hair and a white ballet dress with blue trim. They gaze lovingly into each other’s eyes]

James Earl Jones then introduces Carnival of Animals, which is a story about a flamingo that is shamed by his flock for his love of yo-yos. I’m not making this up.

Penn and Teller perform magic tricks as they introduce The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, the only animated sequence also used in the original Fantasia. Mickey Mouse is the apprentice of a powerful magician, but when he tries to use magic to take care of his chores, he realizes he’s created more trouble than he can fix.

[image description: Mickey Mouse, dressed in a red robe and a blue wizard hat, holds on to a giant book as he’s trapped in a whirlpool]

James Levine introduces Pomp and Circumstance, although he is interrupted as Mickey Mouse tries to find the star of this story: Donald Duck. Donald Duck helps Noah load animals onto the ark before the big flood, and he and Daisy think they’ve lost each other forever]

[image description: Donald Duck stands in the foreground, satisfied, as many animals walk towards Noah’s ark]

Last but not least, Angela Lansbury introduces the final song, The Firebird Suite, which tells of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

Hopefully the beauty of these images convince y’all to give this movie a try. And maybe you recognize some of the musical pieces!

Hey! Sorry I’ve been gone I got a little depressed lol. The grading period is over tonight and I have straight a’s, but I don’t have any A+’s. It’s not terrible because a few of my classes are weighted but I hope I do better next year. I missed half of my weight lifting final so I have to go back in a bit to make it up, and then there’s only one day of school left. I’m playing pomp and circumstance at graduation, so wish me luck for that! An employee yelled at me earlier and it made me cry, but other than that I’ve had a good day. Excited for the summer, I hope u guys are too.

To do:

-practice clarinet

-weight training makeups

-buy gummies as a sweet treat

-turn in art portfolio

This is an older work of mine. This belt was really tricky... The tablet woven band is from silk, has a linen lining and some decorative mounts.

But the best of all was working with this fine, blue silken thread. It flows like water...heavenly!!!
