    Me and my siblings had Fantasia on video cassette. We watched it so much we actually wore the cassette out and almost broke the VCR lol.

    So many fond memories of that film.

    Does Mickey ever speak during his part? I don't think he does and that might be why this is my favorite appearance of MM. I find that voice annoying as hell. Sorry to the Mouse lovers out there!

    Is it crazy that I've never seen Fantasia in it's entirety? I've seen parts of it, but I've never sat down and watched it from beginning to end.
    Only the gentle are ever really strong.

    Ah yes, thank you!
    Again, sorry to the mouse fans but I did vote for Fantasia.

    There's different versions, at least five different copies I think. Here is a censored beside an uncensored edit of one scene.
