Wasnt this all taknig place on Pangea the supercontinent? so what i want to know is where did the dinosours think they could go? The entire place was prob having that drought - that and what was the quick sand thing?
@leatopia You have to remember that this was made in 1940; conclusive evidence of plate tectonics wasn't discovered until 1968. Also, the Disney artists weren't scientists they were just drawing what they felt best fit the music. Even though they had scientific consultation, it was still limited by what was known and perceived at the time.
The absolute helpless situation makes me frightened. Especially that the strong T-Rex in the evolution part also died. Against nature or, imvho, god, theres no chance to fight against. A sometimes terrible feeling, very good animated in this piece of music, especially in the earthquake part. The probably most disturbing part of moving pictures and music i have seen in my childhood (and i saw movies such as ALIEN or PREDATOR as a child). The intensity in this one is a different. This was real.
@Visnu2007 yea well sometimes, nature can be fought against (cough global warming). But i totally appreciate the immense hold nature's whims has over each and every one of us
@Zatynovenove Sì, sono italiano. Altre parti di Fantasia sono già presenti su Youtube; se alcune non sono state ancora caricate da nessuno, allora magari le caricherò io, quando troverò il tempo e la voglia! Ciao!
I remember watching this as a kid and feeling slightly freaked out about how the Dino's just die and the piece just ends at the Ice Age.
When I watched it again as an adult, I felt...confused. I think it's because we already know that the Dino's will die out, yet the way they portray it in this piece makes you actually feel for the loss.
I haven't seen this film in nearly nine years, I used to be obsessed with this when I was a little child. My mum still has this on video, I think I will watch it sometime this week.
People please read the update in this video's info panel. No creation vs evolution debates.
Also please note that I'm not just, impartial or democratic in any way, so I will arbitrarily ban those that piss me off just as a dictator would have them killed.
@aguirrmar Actually, Pangea was such a large continent that most of the interior was already a desert - the rain just couldn't make it all the way in. So most of the living space was already quite warm.
"Not much - just what my professor told me in oceanography class"
im going to remember this sentence, it may be useful later. its not that i believe pangea never existed, because it may be a real possibility. i bet that we have entirely different concepts of it. i was a bit sarcastic because it is generally used as part of the religious indoctrination used to propagate the theory of evolution. your oceanography prof. knows little to nothing of pangea, he just pretends to know.
obviously i dont know your professor, but i do know that he cant know anything about the meteoroloical phenomena that took place on pangea since it isnt certain that pangea existed, and of course if it did, we still couldnt know anything about the weather. not to mention that his idea (i assume it is the "standard model") of the age of the earth is flawed, so he is starting with a flawed premise. yes many religions propogate creationism.
@jndillaha I was going to continue the argument, then realized the futility when I ran out of characters. Congratulations! You win by merit of me not actually giving a crap
i have had one guy quit debating because he was coming out of the closet to his family, which was especially rich. but next to that, this is the most interesting forfeiture of a debate i have had since i havent had a chance to prove my arguments. but if you dont give a crap, i cant force you, so take care. nice talking to you. it would be weird debating this on a rite of spring video anyway.
@jndillaha There is proof that Pangaea existed, lots of it, there is no other way to explain the geological phenomena of the world. We even know the directions the plates are moving in, it's not hard to trace them back to a point of origin. continuations of Rock formations at the joining points of various continents can be observed perfectly. Even a cursory look at the coastlines of South America and West Africa should be enough for a rational human being.
@jndillaha Also evolution is proven too, only religious nuts debate its proof. It's much more scientifically proven than the concepts which drive your computer, yet you're using one now with no questions asked. Again even a cursory look at the similarities between apes and humans should be enough for a rational human being. Pangaea and Evolution agree with what you can see, you shouldn't need mountains of evidence. Your eyes should tell you they're right if you aren't blind
@XArcane Why are we having a creation vs evolution debate?Just enjoy the music and scenery, people because this is a great example of how to make a strong movie without a story or dialogue.
i didnt say pangea didnt exist, i said i didnt think it existed billions of years ago, because the earth is not that old.
"evolution is proven" can you provide evidence backing up your claim? the similarities between apes and humans are not enough for any human to logically derive that mutations caused a common ancestor between the two to evolve into one another, since there is no known mechanism that allows this. i think it should be obvious that we were created by the same creator.
@jndillaha If all living beings were created, then why should a horse and a donkey give a viable offspring? Tigers and lions can interbreed aswell. Eventhought the offspring is sterile,a new living organism was conceived despite their parents being from two different species. Evolution by natural selection can explain this phenomena, but i'm intrigued to know the explanation that Creationism has to explain this event.
genetics explains these phenomena. when a horse and donkey, which are in the same genus, interbreed, the offspring is half horse, half donkey, nothing more, nothing "evolved." evolution cannot explain this since evolution is not proposed to occur by interbreeding, but by mutation. and since it cannot reproduce, no new species is created because it isnt passing its genes on. creationists have no problem with this. i have a problem with the idea that mutations can turn a bacterium into a human.
That's becuase you are probably thinking of single nucleotide mutations that can produce alleles of a gene with slight variations, o maybe generate 1 new gene.
What if I tell you that chunks of chromosomes, containing dozens of genes can jump from one to another? For example our chromosome 2 is a fusion of two chimpanzee chromosomes (i think were chrosmosome 8 and 13). This mechanisms are more drastic in producing genetic changes and probably are the factor that produces speciation.
i got blocked under my other account. i wonder if you did too, or if this account is only in the habit, like most others, of censoring those opinions which dont align with his. if i am off base, i apologize. its just that i have had this done before and i find it ironic that evolutionists always accuse creationists of impeding progress when they are usually guilty of silencing dissent. oh well.
@mjdillaha I blocked both you and XArcane for continuing the debate after I had told you to stop. And no, you're not off base; have you not read my previous comment?
Anyway, since blocking seems ineffective, I will moderate all comments.
what do you mean by moderate? are you going to serve as an objective observer, chiming in when you feel that one of us is off topic or using too much time? anyway, i think you stifled the debate beyond repair. i doubt he will come back since he has been blocked. its probably the out he was looking for, so you did your side a favor. its easier to be blocked than to lose a debate.
@TheLordmep Yeah, Spielberg actually wanted LBT to be a silent film just like RIte of Spring but decided to make the characters talk in order to appeal to kids more.
Thing is, almost every cut in this piece is separated by several years if not eons. If those dinosaurs had 'just' died, they would not be a pile of bones by the time the tsunami (which was probably undrinkable salt-water anyways) rolled in. And then theres' still food to worry about.
When I was littler (I'm 15) I used love this movie. Now it kind of scares me. o_o But I still love it- it's part of my childhood. When I was a toddler I had ALL of the Disney movies on VHS tapes, any one you could think of I had it. I still watch old Disney like Mickey mouse, this, and things like Loony Tunes. WHERE HAS MY DISNEY GONE?!
But I bet if I looked around, I could find most of those tapes in the attic and buy a VHS player on eBay or Amazon...
when the sun gets eclipsed by nibiru (it comes between the sun and earth) then the dinosaurs went extinct and cataclysm came on earth. In part 1 they showed the dwarf star and its comet elenin.
Man this song is unnerving, I can see why people might have freaked out when it was first played, must have been nothing like it. Mind you the animation adds to the freakyness
Anyone noticed of all the dinosaurs starving, struggling or marching on - only the Ceratosauruses from 1:31, 1:46-1:48 are having a field day trying thier luck with the stragglers in the mudpits? And yet the theropod - our T-rex/Allosaurid friend is struggling/falling like the rest of the dinosaurs he's marching with? Apologies for being an idiot...
@Blassbeat A very plausible theory actually. In stratigraphy worldwide, there is a layer enriched in iridium at the K-T (Cretaceous- Tertiary) boundary. Iridium is especially common in meteorites, while sediments and rocks on Earth are iridium poor. While this may not have been the only cause of the K-T mass extinction (there rarely ever is one cause), let us say that there were several climatological and biological factors that were like a powder keg, and the impact was what lit the fuse.
I'm still scared of that T-Rex from the end of Evolution though, and the images of the dinosaurs trying to drink from the muddy puddle has always stayed with me
I have seen this movie 35 times & never get tired of it. I'm glad I found these scenes & music so I can save them on my computer. This is the best animated film I have ever seen.
Watching this again, on my widescreen system, makes me think, they did all this outstanding art and animation by hand, without computers or digital magic. I can overlook the inaccuracies of Rites. The focus was mainly on the animation and music (great classical score). The science wasn't as important. Its an artistic interpretation.
Everyone: this film was made in 1940. That's over 70 FREAKING YEARS AGO. Nowadays, movie artists research what they're making to make it more accurate, but we should just be impressed just by how impressive this looks for something so old, m'kay?
Wow, am I the only one disturbed by how inaccurate this entire thing is? I’ll forgive the postures and everything because of the changing times, but they’ve got animals that are separated by millions of years standing side by side like it’s no big deal. Triassic, Cretaceous, and Jurassic animals just hanging out, why don’t we throw in some wooly mammoths and a WWI Field officer just for fun?
@GamaScythe I noticed that. I presume they didn't have time in a segment to divide them and still tell a story but given how boring most of this film is but how awesome the evolution and dinosaur part is, Disney should have just made the whole film about the evolution of species before humans and made dinosaurs a major part of it. Even as a kid, I felt like the only 2 good parts of it were Mickey and the dinosaur parts, with the latter far more impressive.
@saretardedfilms People didn't know what killed the dinosaurs off at the time this was made, so they just guessed. This was from 1940 and the meteor discovery was not until 40 years later. So long story short, this could be the effects from the meteorite if you wanna put it that way.
after watching this, and knowing that Walt Disney probably had a role to play in making this, Idk how a man so genuinely intelligent and creative could still be an antisemite and racist...
In spite of all the discoveries that have been made about dinosaurs since this animation was made, the Rite of Spring of Fantasia is still the best dramatic portrayal of the rise and fall of the dinosaurs!! I'll take this hand drawn, hand painted Fantasia animation over Jurassic Park anytime!! Ray Harryhausen felt when he saw" Rite of Spring" it was no use completing his stop motion dinosaur project," Evolution" because Disney did it so well with the music!!
@TheWhyteRayven It's all on wikipedia. First comes a silly "soundtrack" intermission, then the centaur part on the pastoral symphony by van Beethoven.
@TheWhyteRayven It's all on wikipedia. First comes a silly "soundtrack" intermission, then the centaur part on the pastoral symphony by van Beethoven.
when i was a little kid i was terrified by this part Fantasia. as an adult all i can do is think about all is all the things we now know about dinosaurs that contradict what was known when this was made. either way the Rite of Spring Scenes are one of my favorites/most memorable from Fantasia.
I remember that as a kid I used to cry over all the dinosaurs' deaths... Look how bony and skinny they are! Noooo! Poor Dinos... *sniff sniff* Could this be what will happen to our Earth in the future?... Again, I love the animation and music, Fantasia is just Epic.
omg! look at how bony and skinny the triceratops ( or however you spell it ) is at 1:19! and look closely at the other dinos at that part! all bony and skinny. and seeing them just drop dead like that.... I would rather get hit by that meteor than try to survive by looking for food and water, but then end up dying by starvation and lack of water.
I remember watching this as a kid and being so utterly terrified of the whole animation that I would hide under a blanket. Sure, dinosaurs were awesome, but the three sequences gave me nightmares of lava, a T-Rex, and an enormous earthquake destroying the entire world and killing everyone. Now as an adult, I can actually fully appreciate the magnificence of Stravinsky's composition and the background behind it, even if I am still a bit afraid of how it makes me feel when I hear it.
@NeverLookBackSamurai I can share and understand your feelings to this. I myself am still slightly frightened by 2:22-2:44 where that skull is that of the theropod who had fallen earlier. The area is like the aftermath of a battle in the desert with the fallen strewn about though it's not the main point. Funny thing 3:33-3:40 shows a major orogenesis (mountain building activitity!) haha - I do some geology in my course hehe...
@quickquick98: you mean the massive and sudden world spanning disasters that are not only scientifically implausible, but the same kind of stuff that is the basis of the bible creation stories you disbelieve in?
This is such an incredible film, and although I hadn't seen it for years, most of it stood out so much in my mind... it is hard to forget this movie, but of course you'd never want to, it is so great. (:
I remember watching this as a kid and I found that this explained how the world was really created. Garden of Eden? Noah's Ark? Never happened: Fantasia's the real deal. If a creationist asks: "if evoltution is true: why can't we find a complete dinasawr skeleton, hurr durr?!" show him 3:21-3:36.
It was funny though how I believed that both humanity's origin as Cavemen and that Garden of Eden story were both true even though they kind of contradicted each other.
People, this is art. Everyone's interpretation will be different. It is expected. But damn, don't try to convince someone that your opinion is better. So what if the dinosaur has one too many fingers? Who gives a shit? The important thing is that this music is fucking AWESOME.
@MadelynDune Well said and I couldn't agree more. Some people are just too pedantic for words, LOL! It is, after all, a beautiful animated film and not subject to laws of physiological accuracy. If people want that they can find a documentary on National Geographic.
Christians, it's a movie. If you can't tolerate it as scientific theory, then think of it as cool-looking science fiction.
Evolutionists, it's a movie. It's not a literal interpretation of evolutionary theory, current or otherwise, as much as it is setting beautiful and terrifying imagry to music.
@TheAtlanticDan *sigh* I see someone misinterpreted my comment altogether. What I had intended was to come off as snarky, yet willing to agree to disagree. In this case, I treat the Bible as nothing more than a good bedtime story. In the meantime, I was hoping fundamentalists watching this would treat it the same as watching Mickey Mouse: not real. Again, agree to disagree.
Also, "scientists" didn't find "actual bones". Paleontologists find fossils made when hard tissue is replaced by rock.
@MorteIncarnata i know, right? they used to make death SO believable, and let it happen too. but now, everything either lives through some traumatic experience or we don't see him die. I say let 'em! XD
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@MorteIncarnata Love how you called the dinosaur with "THREE" tiny claws a T-rex.
Failure on the people who called "that" a T-rex. and Disney for fucking up the anatomy of Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Correctly that should be an allosaurus but because this took place during the cretaceous period, It's only a carnivorous therapod.
I understand you though. This was made during a time or great war and ignorance. I'll forgive it, But not the people who fail to point out the OBVIOUS.
@tehjefey Why did you put three in quotations? By doing that you're insinuating that the three claws are fake and/or don't exist. Same thing with putting quotations around 'that'.
@tehjefey As I said earlier, Disney depicted the T-Rex with 3 fingers because he thought it looked better that way. I kinda understand it considering the time. I don't know whether people call it a T-Rex because they don't know the T-Rex had 2 fingers, or because they understand that, regardless of how accurate it is, it's su

The T-Rex didn't kill the other dinos for 2 reasons
-he didn't have the energy to fight another large dinosaur
-he knew the world was totally screwed and trying to survive was pointless in this economy

So the moral of the story is that it would have been better to be killed quickly by the T-Rex instead of die a long and miserable death.

@RenpikaRozen If I had to guess probably because it was too exhausted to hunt or kill, and severly dehydrated. It needed water more than anything.

Watching this again, on my widescreen system, makes me think, they did all this outstanding art and animation by hand, without computers or digital magic. I can overlook the inaccuracies of Rites. The focus was mainly on the animation and music (great classical score). The science wasn't as important. Its an artistic interpretation.

Everyone: this film was made in 1940. That's over 70 FREAKING YEARS AGO. Nowadays, movie artists research what they're making to make it more accurate, but we should just be impressed just by how impressive this looks for something so old, m'kay?
phenixofroses 7 months ago 4
Wow, am I the only one disturbed by how inaccurate this entire thing is? I’ll forgive the postures and everything because of the changing times, but they’ve got animals that are separated by millions of years standing side by side like it’s no big deal. Triassic, Cretaceous, and Jurassic animals just hanging out, why don’t we throw in some wooly mammoths and a WWI Field officer just for fun?

mysterygirl154 7 months ago
@GamaScythe I noticed that. I presume they didn't have time in a segment to divide them and still tell a story but given how boring most of this film is but how awesome the evolution and dinosaur part is, Disney should have just made the whole film about the evolution of species before humans and made dinosaurs a major part of it. Even as a kid, I felt like the only 2 good parts of it were Mickey and the dinosaur parts, with the latter far more impressive.

saretardedfilms 7 months ago
@saretardedfilms People didn't know what killed the dinosaurs off at the time this was made, so they just guessed. This was from 1940 and the meteor discovery was not until 40 years later. So long story short, this could be the effects from the meteorite if you wanna put it that way.

In spite of all the discoveries that have been made about dinosaurs since this animation was made, the Rite of Spring of Fantasia is still the best dramatic portrayal of the rise and fall of the dinosaurs!! I'll take this hand drawn, hand painted Fantasia animation over Jurassic Park anytime!! Ray Harryhausen felt when he saw" Rite of Spring" it was no use completing his stop motion dinosaur project," Evolution" because Disney did it so well with the music!!

omg! look at how bony and skinny the triceratops ( or however you spell it ) is at 1:19! and look closely at the other dinos at that part! all bony and skinny. and seeing them just drop dead like that.... I would rather get hit by that meteor than try to survive by looking for food and water, but then end up dying by starvation and lack of water.

I remember watching this as a kid and being so utterly terrified of the whole animation that I would hide under a blanket. Sure, dinosaurs were awesome, but the three sequences gave me nightmares of lava, a T-Rex, and an enormous earthquake destroying the entire world and killing everyone. Now as an adult, I can actually fully appreciate the magnificence of Stravinsky's composition and the background behind it, even if I am still a bit afraid of how it makes me feel when I hear it.
NeverLookBackSamurai 9 months ago 26
@NeverLookBackSamurai I can share and understand your feelings to this. I myself am still slightly frightened by 2:22-2:44 where that skull is that of the theropod who had fallen earlier. The area is like the aftermath of a battle in the desert with the fallen strewn about though it's not the main point. Funny thing 3:33-3:40 shows a major orogenesis (mountain building activitity!) haha - I do some geology in my course hehe...

sunnydale22 10 months ago
I remember watching this as a kid and I found that this explained how the world was really created. Garden of Eden? Noah's Ark? Never happened: Fantasia's the real deal. If a creationist asks: "if evoltution is true: why can't we find a complete dinasawr skeleton, hurr durr?!" show him 3:21-3:36.
It was funny though how I believed that both humanity's origin as Cavemen and that Garden of Eden story were both true even though they kind of contradicted each other.

Here, I'll settle it:
Christians, it's a movie. If you can't tolerate it as scientific theory, then think of it as cool-looking science fiction.
Evolutionists, it's a movie. It's not a literal interpretation of evolutionary theory, current or otherwise, as much as it is setting beautiful and terrifying imagry to music.

Again, agree to disagree.
Also, "scientists" didn't find "actual bones". Paleontologists find fossils made when hard tissue is replaced by rock.

@MorteIncarnata Love how you called the dinosaur with "THREE" tiny claws a T-rex.
Failure on the people who called "that" a T-rex. and Disney for fucking up the anatomy of Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Correctly that should be an allosaurus but because this took place during the cretaceous period, It's only a carnivorous therapod.
I understand you though. This was made during a time or great war and ignorance. I'll forgive it, But not the people who fail to point out the OBVIOUS.

@tehjefey As I said earlier, Disney depicted the T-Rex with 3 fingers because he thought it looked better that way. I kinda understand it considering the time. I don't know whether people call it a T-Rex because they don't know the T-Rex had 2 fingers, or because they understand that, regardless of how accurate it is, it's su
