general discussion thread I remember when I saw Fantasia for the first and only time. I was entranced, awe-struck, rather giddy with delight.
Although the film doesn't have today's computerized, monotonously-gory, predictably-explosive, cookie-cutter special effects, so many of the scenes and visuals in Fantasia remain vivid forever although decades pass and memory dulls somewhat.
Today's stupidly-unrealistic, wild car chases, building explosions, planets colliding.....they just don't stick with me at all....well, maybe a certain D.C. government building vaporized by aliens in "Independence Day" stays in my mind for some reason or other, LOL.
Since so many years have passed and this movie is never on TV, I'm hinting to Santa for the video in my stocking.
