Disney animators and filmmakers have again expanded the boundaries of imagination with Fantasia 2000. Fulfilling Walt Disney's original vision of uniquely fusing sight and sound in a full-length motion picture, this film begins where its predecessor, Fantasia left off, with seven completely new segments and the return of the popular "The Sorcerer's Apprentice."
In this fun-filled movie, breathtaking images are coupled with classical music favorites. From Beethoven to Gershwin - from flamingos bobbing yo-yos to a city in bluesy motion - vivid animation brings the music of the masters to colorful life.
Sixty years after the original masterpiece, Roy E. Disney has orchestrated a brilliant collaboration of more than 1,200 artists and technicians - including the animators of The Lion King, Beauty And The Beast and Aladdin - to present Fantasia 2000, a film filled with "dazzling moments" (The New York Times) and arguably the greatest Disney film ever" (KNX-CBS Radio), that is sure to captivate viewers of all ages!

A treat for the eyes.... - 4.75 out of 5 (11/14/2000)
"Fantasia 2000" could be looked upon as the sequel that almost never was. The original Fantasia was conceived as a blend between classical music and animation. It was a beautiful piece to look at and it represented years of work by Walt Disney. The original idea was to make the film and then re-release it every few years with new scenes and new songs cut into the print. It was a master plan that fell by the wayside when the original box office returns were less that satisfying.
Thus the film

The best way to take full potential of your home theater... - 5 out of 5 (12/17/2001)
I have never been a fan of extreme side movies (or extreme sides in all for that matter), too vulgular (toilet humor) or too cultural; but this movie proved me wrong, in the cultural side, of course.

Besides that I took a great r
