Tchaikovsky Nutcracker Suite Fantasia --- Summer and Autumn

[geevow]

I liked this as a child, and I love this as an adult :)

I used to watch this as a little girl and coming across it now just brought back amazing memories.

I watched this when I was 4!

Simplemente PRECIOSA

The mushroom segment is based off of the Nutcracker piece "Tea"

The little mushroom characters are paying tribute to the Chinese origins of the drink, in their own special, racist 1940's Disney way.

if disney's gonna rerelease any movie, it should be this, not the lion king.

[msmiamiblu]

@xanafanadu The Lion King is every bit of a masterpiece as Fantasia! People don't care about classical music these days, so they'd rather re-release something that is going to make millions, all they care about is MONEY! I Love Fantasia though, it wouldn't make that much, unfortunately. But don't dis my movie. I'd say they shouldn't bother promoting crap like Mars Needs Moms!

[fosforecencia]

Thank u very much for upload this awesome movie :D

[wtfbbqhacks]

God dammit, this song freaks me out so much. :/

[lilbbvv123]

oh my god, I loved Fantasia when I was small and I love Fantasia now xD IT'S STRANGE HOW MUCH I ADORE THIS SONG <3

[loreecew]

What's amazing is how it was all created before computer animation. Wow...

[totoroy17]

When I watch/hear this I feel like I'm five again :)

This was my absolute favorite video and it's the reason why my favorite animals still are penguins and mushrooms XD ...ahh <3

[shinegrove]

My brother and I always used to dance to the Russian flowers part. :) It's such a good movie, if only Disney still did animation like this!

[Mattyaeus]

[tj47moeller]

fantasia kinda scared me when i was a kid although i still loved watching and listening to it.

[2threemiles]

fantasia must be the best video my parents bought for me when i was a kid

[DaJSUDiva]

@2threemiles ..mines too!! I love this movie

[LailaBecef]

i was growing on all that music! such a nostalgic moment!!

[frzam7]

Stunning.

[williamx747]

such an amazing film and the music is just so well suited. disney's finest work.

[CSFoxSDG]

Of course there are cultural nuances to the different cartoons - Tchaikovsky wrote it to reflect the music of different parts of the world. How else would you reflect the Chinese dance or the Russian dance - or the Arabian dance?

[altarboy4sin]

yes hazy and the movie was made in 1942

[Hazy804]

more racial undertones the mushrooms are supposed to be asian (slanted eye single braid large circular flat hats)

[altarboy4sin]

the fish are Arabic and the dandelions are Russian but you didn't feel the need to comment on that.

[Eyohannes93]

@altarboy4sin The fish are "Arab." Arabic is the language.

[MonoxidePanda]

@Hazy804 ????ooohhhh kkkkk so what

[kitkat8871]

@Hazy804 I don't think it's undertones. The piece is CALLED "Chinese Dance". They used Tchaikovsky's titles and intention of reflecting cultures into account when animating the sequence. It makes perfect sense and (in this case) I don't find it one bit offensive.

[EmilyBlack01]

@kitkat8871 I thought they were Japanese because they look like little Japanese people.

[randomnesschick13]

AWW!!!! Love that little mushroom...

[rosenkopf]

@randomnesschick13

yeah, it is sweet..it seems to have some difficulty keeping up with the big mushrooms :D
