Fantasia 2000
1999
Dear Disney,
Why? Why Disney? Why do you do things like this to me? What have I ever done to you? I’ve only occasionally made fun of some of your less than great films. But can you really blame me? Have you yourself ever sat down and watched The Three Caballeros? Or Pocahontas? I am beginning to think you possibly are not able to screen all of your movies beforehand.
I understand if you don’t have time to do that. I know you are busy doing many other things, like creating fantastic movies like The Lion King or Dumbo or even Sleeping Beauty. But really. This time it’s a bit ridiculous.
You didn’t have to do this. Fantasia was by itself a masterpiece of animated film. It was beautiful and groundbreaking. It set the tone for many things that were to come. It was creative genius at its best. You didn’t need to produce this movie. Haven’t you ever heard the phrase “let well enough alone?” I think it could apply to you sometimes.
Today I had the misfortune of watching Fantasia 2000. I did not enjoy it. I had to watch it twice actually. The first time I fell asleep. Disney, if you are making movies that put people to sleep, I say you must reexamine yourself.
Disney, why did you include The Sorcerer’s Apprentice? Now you have to steal from the original? I understand that you cannot make another film like Fantasia, but trying to make one exactly like it is just wrong.
You have failed me Disney. Please don’t do it again.
With most of the time great love,
Kelsey
