Should they make a 3rd one?

Or is voiceless animation where music does all the emotional and storytelling work outdated?

    It's not about topicality; it's about profitability and prestige. A third Fantasia would- without doubt- be unprofitable and prestigious. Unless it was half-assed then it would just be unprofitable. So Disney would have to be in a spot where they were willing to tank profit to fluff up their prestige. And (a) there's a question of just how much prestige it would be today, even done right and (b) Disney isn't exactly unconcerned with profitability right now.

      I can't help but wonder how a modern version of something like this or "The cat Concerto" would be like. Though I'd prefer it be instrumentals only to be comparable to those I guess. Just animation over music where it matches the tone but tells a story too.

    I'm personally glad that there will never be another one. Imagine how disgusting that would be.

      Frick you, /misc/, it would have music and culture from beyond the white and you'd whine about it erasing whites from the planet. It would be a Koyaanisqatsi-inspired Philip Glass piece showing the tragedies of modern encroaching on nature. It would have a piece by Astor Piazzolla celebrating South American Dance. It'd have some fusion pan-Indian piece and some pan-African piece, and you'd b***h and moan and moan and b***h like you always do.

        It's not that I think Afrika cultures are bad, it's just that I don't think blacks and those cultures are capable of making something like Fantasia like you just said. If they were capable, why is there not a 3rd Fantasia? What about a 4th, or 5th, or 6th on these very topics? They just can't make something like Fantasia.

          By that reasoning nobody is capable of making a third Fantasia.

        >it would be like that 80s movie and it would celebrate nature and vague representations of world culture according to Americans
        Seems uninspired as frick tbh, and potentially preachy which is a feat in a silent piece.

    They'd need a new 2D animation studio. Probably outsourced to Korea.

      Why Korea? Do they appreciate classical music more than any western country?

    2018 silent animated film that's a sequel to a 2013 silent animated film adapted from a 2000s silent animated show. The 2013 was profitable thanks to a relatively small budget, the 2018 one wasn't. Oggy and the wienerroaches was another successful silent French show, in more of a Tom and Jerry style.
    Different spiritual successor would be The Prophet, which does the gorgeous animated anthology thing but on Damien Rice music and with a lot of monologue/dialogue.
    You should also check out Allegro non troppo if you haven't, it was Italy's answer to Fantasia in the 70s.

    It failed the first time, it fail the second time, why would they want to waste money a third time?

      How did it fail “the first time”? The first Fantasia was financially successful and critically acclaimed. When adjusted for inflation, Fantasia is the 23rd highest-grossing film of all time in the U.S.

        Most of that money and praise came from theatrical re-releases. When it came out, it was considered boring and pretentious, was cut off from the European market by the war, and had a limited roadshow release with "Fantasound" equipped theaters that was expensive to set-up since nobody had thought of doing stereophonic sound in movie theaters before Walt did. To try and recoup a little more of their money back then, they had RKO cut it up for a wider mono release.

    Wouldn't happen, at least not as a theatrical release. If they did do it, they'd put it on Disney+, make part of the appeal that you've got different animation directors or use art styles from more popular artists that the public may recognize, then chop it into segments as the main way to watch it. Then they'll add a combined "full experience" version as a bonus.

    Fantasia 3 was cancelled in 2003-4 or so with an emphasis on world music.
    Four segments were finished for it and released as individual shorts, consisting of the Salvador Dali collaboration Destino, One by One from the Lion King: Rhythm of the Pride Lands album as the Africa sequence, Lorenzo which used tango music, and The Little Matchgirl which was Russian.

    It wouldn’t have had the beautiful animation of the first one nor likely the impressive experimentation of the second one.
    You’d also need someone with passion for Disney’s films, which none of the current heads have.

      That doesn't have to be bad. Minuscule was good, you don't have to just remake the smurfs every time.
