“In the Hall of the Mountain King” and “Flight of the Bumblebee” are star-crossed lovers and mirror images and two armies at war and the sun-and-moon and a child rebelling against a parent and a divorced couple and a heretic rebelling against God but most importantly they are Polar Opposite Twins.

In the Hall of Emma and Chase

Or alternatively, "Emma and Chase's lore getting progressively more unhinged for almost three minutes"! Are they terrible for each other? Yes, but their banter can get pretty fun for how ridiculous it can get XD (Big spoilers for season one of the reboot + a pinch of season 2 so watch at your discretion)

Video description: footage of Emma and Chase from Total Drama Island 2023 set to the song "In the Hall of the Mountain King". Warning: the volume gets a bit louder towards the final climax of the song.

"Why do I hear music?"

"Is it boss music?"

"No. No, it's... oh no."

"What?"

"It's 'In the Hall of the Mountain King'."

"So?"

"Do you not understand what that song means? Everything is about to go incredibly wrong at an accelerating rate."

"Aw, how bad could it be?"

"We are standing in a kitchen! A big industrial kitchen! Do you know how much shit in here could kill us in the event of a Murphy's Law style cataclysmic chain of events?"

"You're just being HOLY SHIT THE OVEN BURST INTO FLAMES!"

"The music is still ramping up! RUN! EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF!"

Just got put on hold to "In the Hall of the Mountain King." Between fits of incredulous laughter I wondered what message the company was trying to send. My guess is they thought "A rotating playlist of recognizable classical music sends a classy and professional tone," but all I heard was "You're about to be sent on a wild phone call goose chase you stupid asshat, so you better buckle up your five-point harness and brace for the most frustration you've ever felt in your life."

Song of Norway (1970) is a bad film by any metric. A musical based on Grieg's life - if by "based on Grieg's life" you mean "had almost nothing to do with it" - it was a critical and commercial failure.

Probably what is both the most memorable and goofiest segment is the trolls part (you know, all big musicals back then had a live action and animation section). It would not be worth mentioning were it not for the fact that virtually all of the trolls are based on the great Theodor Kittelsen's artwork.

How many can you spot?

I feel like you'll know the answer to this ~ what is that classical music song that gets faster and faster and more chaotic as it goes on, and it's got like violins and it starts out real slow and picks up speed??? It's used a bunch of memes and shit and it was in the video with that dried noodle guy chat I think??????

Oh Anon, you picked the right nerd for this. I know exactly which piece you're talking about. It's 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' by Grieg, from his Peer Gynt suite: (your description was spot on and also perfectly chaotic, I love it)

[culturevulturette]

All I can say is, this is so damn much fun to play...
