(DVD, Disney)
Not so much a sequel but rather another installment of Fantasia, in which classical music pieces are interpreted by Disney animators. In the intervening 60 years, animation has come to rely more on computer assistance, and this was made right around the transition. As a result, the animation can be a bit clunky at times. Between animated segments are live-action bridges featuring various hosts, such as Steve Martin, Bette Midler, Angela Lansbury and others, some of which are embarrassingly bad. Still, the music soars, and occasionally even the animation manages to keep pace.
