Fun fact. In this depiction of the dinosaurs they were killed off by a drought because the idea of an asteroid hitting earth didn't come about until the 80's.
Take note people: when any animal looks toward a heavily forested area or any direction that isn’t towards you, then get a head start and walk away from that general region.
True, it be like that like in Dinosaurs (2000) or some movies that don’t involve Animals, Tarzan looks at a heavily forested area before the jaguar ambushes them...
Plus notice a second later in the close up on the stegosaurus' face, it look like it swallowed in fear. God, I love old Disney. They put love and care in their projects
Lol it's stumpy little legs try to move him with all their might.....then when he gets bit on the tail and looks back scared at the T rex...I used to feel bad for him as a kid hahaha.
He’s like “help me!” I’m not even supposed to be alive during the same time period as this guy! (Stegosaurus lived during Jurassic and T. rex lived during Cretaceous)
You can really see the influence this sequence had on the original “Land Before Time.” The sequence even starts with the “zoom-in on Earth” all the sequels kept opening with.
@@adnaanu No, Fantasia was well before his time. His first gig with Disney was as an assistant on Sleeping Beauty, before joining Filmation. He came back to Disney to animate on “Robin Hood”, and stayed on through “Pete’s Dragon” before going solo.
This looks like something that was made on the 90's. It's mind-blowing to think that such a smooth and detailed work of animation was made almost a century ago.
Disney really went all-out on his early Technicolor full features. Later on they went to cheaper methods that didn't have anywhere near the level of quality. Compare the cartoonish look of something like Cinderella (1950) with the almost life-like quality of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Very different methods. Unfortunately, this sort of animation was just not economically viable.
That's in part because they actually had the dino's walk in quite a modern fashion. Look at the tail on the t-rex. He doesn't drag is over the ground as scientists thought back then. In some shots he even holds it out straight. It's clear that the tail is a counterbalance. The animators had studied modern animal movement and used that in this scene. A prime example of art actually "discovering" something before science did.
There was never a time when dinosaurs weren't cool. Even when we thought they were slow, stupid, lumbering reptiles that dragged their tails and lived at the same time in the same primordial swamp with every other prehistoric animal before the Cenozoic, they were still pretty awesome. And they only got more awesome from there.
Exactly Stegosaurus lived in the Jurassic Period with Diplodocus and others Tyrannosaurus lived in the Cretaceous Period with Triceratops and more Dinosaur movies have dinos from different time periods in the same period
Guyona Buffalo it’s really not a big deal I loved dinos when I was 2 And now I’m 9 but thx for the compliment Then I knew flying dinosaurs where actually called Pterosaurs Swimming Dinos are Marine Reptiles And I don’t wanna brag But I might be the best kid prehistoric paleontologist And I learned it from Dino Dana/Dino Dan/and Dino Dan:Trek’s Adventures Now from them I know The Longest Dino Is The Diplodocus The Smallest Dino is the Microraptor The fastest Dino is the Compsangnathus And The biggest Dino is The Argentinosaurus So thx and BYE
Land before time had nothing to do with Disney...although the possibility, considering the Sharptooth in that movie wouldn't be far off from this T-Rex, wouldn't surprise anyone.
Lucas Mckenzie Except it was 20 something years until updating that T.Rex didn’t have 3 Fingers, they only had 2. Especially before very complete Skeletons were unearthed to make doubly sure of the Scientific Update on the theories on Dinosaurs.
This scene fascinated me as a kid, it was animated astonishingly well especially for the time, and it went along with the music perfectly. Particularly the part where the Tyrannosaurus advances with its footsteps in time with the rhythm of the music. And the details! The way Tyrannosaurus chomped at everything it had a chance of reaching, its jaws snapping shut. The Stegosaurus tail swatting the Tyrannosaurus away. Then the Stegosaurus panting with fear at 1:37, injured and cornered. The way its tail thrashes feebly one last time. And the way the Tyrannosaurus roars in triumph as lightning flashes behind it. The Earth history segment was (and still is) my favorite in the entire movie and helped solidify my love of ancient life that died long before humans.
This may be one of the most menacing and terrifying depictions of a Tyrannosaurus I've ever seen in an animated film. The intense, stormy weather, the fact that it causes every dinosaur it comes across to run in fear, and that it seemed to have no trouble taking down the Stego when it was trying so hard to stay alive.
Of course they would be afraid imagine a time traveling dinosaur that bigger than the carnivores you deal with daily suddenly appearing and you don’t have any experience to fight cause it is not supposed to be in the time you live in
I remember this perfectly, it got me chills, so sad that the stegosaurus didn't make it at the end, but I like the fact he didn't give up, and fighting till his last breath 😥
I love how T rex bows down to feed Its a nice detail to animalize this creature. For about 2 minutes he was like a Kaiju only to be shown that he is still an animal and not an otherworldly creature or a Kaiju.
When the stegosaurus finally goes down that part always scared me for some reason, the deep notes especially the scene when the Trex roars and the lightning in the background whew that still gives me shivers to this day.
Veronika Daisy it's a old cartoon,they didn't know how we know it back then.even if the differences are small from today's,they might have seen a different Rex them ours. And it's also a cartoon,its not going to look exactly like a regular Rex.
Veronika Daisy and if in correct,the Rex did technically have a third finger.it was just so tiny that it was under its skin.thats what I've heard from an actual person who study's and digs them up.
Can we take a moment to applaud the Disney animators who made this scene scary for kids but still easily watchable. There is no blood and gore, yet the scene still cleverly depicts the violence of a massive predator bringing down its prey and the Stegosaur defending itself. Something that on the surface goes easily unnoticed.
Finally, somebody who acknowledges that kid’s aren’t just a bunch of wussies to be babied... and that the Stegosaurus DID actually defend itself in this film.
One of the best dinosaur fight scenes in dinosaur movie history considering that it shows a t-rex confronting and fighting a stegosaurus! Add to the fact that there's nothing but dramatic music playing during this fight scene makes it even more iconic and unforgettable!
Domestic pigeon I never said anything about inaccuracies. I don't care about that in an animated film. I still like Disney's Pocahontas and Don Bluth's Anastasia despite their terrible depiction of history. When I said it sucks, I meant it sucks that the stegosaur dies after all his effort.
2:29 is one of the most beautiful animated moments in Disney imo. The lighting on the face as the lightning strikes, the sync with the music, it’s such a raw, visceral moment, you don’t even need a roar for the moment to capture you.
Most animals won't try and stand up their natural predators unless they absolutely have to, ex. Deer actually tend to outweigh dogs but typically run unless cornered.
I thought the same thing too he could've killed it with a charge. Triceratops was one the few dinosaurs could kill T Rex or any large predator with ease.
@@Saint3188 Rarely would it be "easy" for Trikes to kill Rexes. They would avoid the Rex if possible. Might stand up to one if they were in a herd or defending its young. T-Rex wasn't so stupid and paleontologist thought that it was at least smart enough to ambush and hunt in pairs and used techniques to flush its prey out. Of course things can go wrong or a Rex could be hungry and pick a more risky fight if it didn't have food for a while.
I never realized how dark Fantasia was, I wish Disney would go back to this stuff again and take risks with their films. Today's Disney is too dumb down
Inside Out wasn't dark. Honest, but certainly not dark. Bing Bong had to die/be forgotten because Riley had to grow up. Her mental islands were crumbling because she was being uprooted. She was trying to put on a brave face for her family but since Joy was off on a quest to make Riley's transition more bearable, Anger, Fear, and Disgust were ruling over her life. All Riley needed was Sadness to let it all out her system.
I think we all still root for the Stegosaurus to this day. This scene is what made them so cool. Every time you still hope somehow he will win. At least he went out fighting.
This movie shows how palaeontology and our understanding of our own past has evolved in 80 or so years. Quite amazing really how things change as time evolves.
I’d love to see a scene like this redone with modern understanding and with dinosaurs from an accurate time period, with just Jurassic period dinosaurs and the T-Rex could maybe be switched out with a Saurophaganax or in the opposite effect the scene could be placed in the Cretaceous period and take away the Jurassic dinosaurs (the stego could be switched out for a Ankylosaurus). However all the dark elements and dramatic music/scenes should def be kept.
Masterpiece. Even with the innacuracies this fight still is one of the most threatning scenes with Dinosaurs and of course one of the most incredible scenes Disney has ever made. Of course we also have to take something into consideration. This was the first piece of media or movie that depicted Dinosaurs as dinamic non stationary creatures, not just big slow masses of meat. The music arrangement is also phenomenal. Although the original purpose of the piece was for a ballet, the repurposing role that has here is outstandingly fitting. A fantasy, specially when you watch it with 4 years for the first time.
@@JunoneMaster3000 clearly referring to the depictions of the dinosaurs since we understand more of their means of locomotion, the Stegosaurus not existing at the same time the Tirannosaurus did. Details that don't detract from the outstanding powerful quality of such animation. I'm te first one defending Fantasia and thinking It's an underappreciated work of art. Thanks for your comment tho
@@JunoneMaster3000 It doesn’t effect art and movies that were made from around the original Jurassic Park and before because a lot it was based on the science at the time and assumptions. I find this scene beautiful and the atmosphere is amazing. Nowadays, it just comes off as willful ignorance to depict dinosaurs like they were in Jurassic Park and before. Obviously, creative liberties when it comes to art is inevitable, but at least give them the correct anatomy. We have pretty good idea on how dinosaurs look and behaved nowadays.
As a child when I saw this, this scene is the most memorable for me, I was going through a 'dinosaur phase' and this was a good interpretation of dinosaurs, this scene terrified my friends, not me though. I watched a lot of horror movies when I was a kid so this scene didn't scare me but fascinated me instead. One of my best favorite scenes in this movie ❤
Still funny how the little dinosaur uses the opportunity to steal what I assume is some sort of nutritious root dug up by the bigger dinosaur while the latter is distracted.
Know what I love about this aside from the pure amazing marriage of visual and audio? The inaccuracies. And I mean that in an unironic way. This is a BEAUTIFULLY animated accurate depiction of how these animals were viewed at the time. All the care that went into everything you see had to be studied and fact checked to produce these images in a way that was appealing and likely the best of knowledge at that time. Thank you Disney for preserving such a brief window of perspective.
Same! It's fascinating that, despite how innacurate it is nowadays, there was a time where this scene was considered a perfectly realistic portrayal of the Mesozoic ages. As far as I know, the only thing that was deliberately innacurate was drawing the T.rex with three fingers; I think Walt Disney himself even sent a letter to a paleontologist that gave him advice for the film, explaining that it was done because it made the Rex's animation look better and more threatening.
@@patronsaintofprocrastination I do remember reading about that- and honestly I can respect it from a visual storytelling aspect. Sometimes an artistic choice is fine- so long as it doesn’t truly interrupt the experience.
And they made movies that were directed at all audiences instead of just children. Fantasia was basically a love letter to animation by Walt Disney, but it flopped and he lost that spark/passion afterwards
Leaving aside the inevitable examples of 'paleontology marches on', this sequence is one of the best in the entire movie. You really, REALLY see the terror in that poor Stego's eyes, and feel the hopelessness of his situation. And the way they utilize 'Rite of Spring' is amazing, too - you cannot hear that final 'dahn dahn DAHHN' without seeing the T-Rex's roar of triumph - or at least, I can't. And this was in 1940 - if Disney had been able to keep up this winning streak clean through the rest of the decade (instead of being derailed by WW2), one can only imagine the level of artistry they might have been able to achieve.
@@JohnAdams-pp7vi indominous and indoraptor were lame. The "allan" raptor from jurassic park 3 was possibly the worse thing to hit cinema at the time 😅
Thank God, another classic Disney animation video on YT with the comments section on. It's fun to read other people's memories and fun facts about the animation while you watch. Makes it less lonely.
People getting mad in the comments about other people pointing out inaccuracies or not pointing out inaccuracies but I’m over here appreciating how far we’ve come from this point, it’s a really cool point of reference to look back on and say “see how much we’ve learned?”
@@Kunsoo1024 Not totally correct. The T-Rex did both. If it couldn't find something to eat it hunted, but if it found something it ate it and took the day off. Kind like how we choose between cooking dinner and ordering take out
It's incredible and completely accurate how a little while later you see the T rex dying of thirst and walking along the rest completely unable to be a hunter.
dang, I know this is just a little cartoon, but now I feel kind of sad. A pretty good cartoon to be able to do that. r.i.p. my bro the stegosaurus. He lived brave; he died brave.
Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus rex never met each other. T-Rex lived 66 million years ago in the Cretaceous period, while Stegosaurus lived 80 million years prior in the Jurassic period. However, Stegosaurus lived alongside another predator called Allosaurus, and there's even fossil evidence of their interactions with each other.
He’s Right The Stegosaurus Lived During the Jurassic Period and the Tyrannosaurus lived During the Cretaceous Period it Would Make More Sense if it was a Fight between a Allosaurus and a Stegosaurus or a fight between a Ankylosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus (thought Walking With Dinosaurs already did both of these fights)
Yes, the movie wasn't focus on paleontological investigation at the time, it was a concept about primitive life, I love it, if you want to see realistic dinosaurs, dinosaur planet or recent natgeo documentaries are a good option.
SHUT up it don't matter of they all were in different time period some dinosaurs like the ones In this one sometimes join other time period dinos herds
@@marileywegner Before the stegosaurus died, you can tell the t-rex’s head moving behind the prey. At that moment, I can tell the t-rex already started eating.
Stegosaurus: Yes! Yes. This is a fertile land. We will thrive in this land and we will call it...This Land. Tyrannosaurus Rex: I think we should call it your grave. Stegosaurus: Ah. Curse your sudden, yet inevitable betrayal. Tyrannosaurus Rex: Ahahaha. Mine is an evil laugh. Stegosaurus: Ah Oh No. Oh Dear God In Heaven.
When high ranking members of the Japanese Imperial Military first saw this film, they refused to let it air to the rest of the general public, because they didn't want their people to know their enemies were capable of creating something so beautiful.
@@captainkrust8609 Actually, that's been debunked. Triceratops and Torosaurus were separate: journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0032623
@Ivo von Bowser Kai Um, honey, if you actually bothered to read this comment, it is complimenting the amazing animation in this sequence. The only one being an over-sensitive snowflake here is you. Stop hunting for reasons to get offended.
When I was little, my mom would sometimes bring me over to my grandmother's house (This was before we moved in) and she and I would sit in her room together and watch the Fantasia VHS tape on her TV. This and Beethoven's VI along with Night on Bald Mountain have always been my favorites and even though I'm 18 and me and my family have moved in with my grandmother, I still love this scene and I still try and act along with the Tyrannosaurus all while making sound effects when we have movie night and someone picks Fantasia.
I think the inaccurate depictions of the dinosaurs in the Rite of Spring sequence are what make it memorable, because they allow us to learn how people used to think dinosaurs looked like and lived during this time. For example, how it was once thought that sauropods lived in the water, probably because nobody thought an animal of their size could support its bulk on land.
@@user-zt3rr6tb6f nah it’s a T.rex. It literally says so in the title. Besides, Giganotosaurus wasn’t even discovered until 1993 and Fantasia was made in 1940.
Disney NEEDS to make another dinosaur movie. I know we just had The Good Dinosaur but a Disney movie with ACTUAL up-to-date dinosaurs would be fantastic. Disney could do accurate dinosaurs so well! And before you all lecture me about the 40's and how annoying I am or how "uncool" feathery dinosaurs are just imagine how good it could be.

Saint318 T-Rexs didn’t play though. They think now they literally ambushed them and then charged them full speed knocking them over and killing them
@@Saint3188 Rarely would it be "easy" for Trikes to kill Rexes. They would avoid the Rex if possible. Might stand up to one if they were in a herd or defending its young. T-Rex wasn't so stupid and paleontologist thought that it was at least smart enough to ambush and hunt in pairs and used techniques to flush its prey out. Of course things can go wrong or a Rex could be hungry and pick a more risky fight if it didn't have food for a while.
I never realized how dark Fantasia was, I wish Disney would go back to this stuff again and take risks with their films. Today's Disney is too dumb down
Well then apparently you've never seen inside out...
insde out wasnt dark
CynderSpirit Luthy
I, tu
I know. Imagine how spectacular "Fantasia" would be with today's technology. In IMAX 3D, too.
Inside Out wasn't dark. Honest, but certainly not dark. Bing Bong had to die/be forgotten because Riley had to grow up. Her mental islands were crumbling because she was being uprooted. She was trying to put on a brave face for her family but since Joy was off on a quest to make Riley's transition more bearable, Anger, Fear, and Disgust were ruling over her life. All Riley needed was Sadness to let it all out her system.
I think we all still root for the Stegosaurus to this day. This scene is what made them so cool. Every time you still hope somehow he will win. At least he went out fighting.
2:33 I like how they just walk away like “Welp. . .there go another one”
This movie shows how palaeontology and our understanding of our own past has evolved in 80 or so years. Quite amazing really how things change as time evolves.
I’d love to see a scene like this redone with modern understanding and with dinosaurs from an accurate time period, with just Jurassic period dinosaurs and the T-Rex could maybe be switched out with a Saurophaganax or in the opposite effect the scene could be placed in the Cretaceous period and take away the Jurassic dinosaurs (the stego could be switched out for a Ankylosaurus). However all the dark elements and dramatic music/scenes should def be kept.
Masterpiece. Even with the innacuracies this fight still is one of the most threatning scenes with Dinosaurs and of course one of the most incredible scenes Disney has ever made. Of course we also have to take something into consideration. This was the first piece of media or movie that depicted Dinosaurs as dinamic non stationary creatures, not just big slow masses of meat.
The music arrangement is also phenomenal. Although the original purpose of the piece was for a ballet, the repurposing role that has here is outstandingly fitting. A fantasy, specially when you watch it with 4 years for the first time.
''Even with the innacuracies''
lol There will never be a 100% accurate depiction. And how does scientific accuracy effects art quality?
@@JunoneMaster3000 clearly referring to the depictions of the dinosaurs since we understand more of their means of locomotion, the Stegosaurus not existing at the same time the Tirannosaurus did. Details that don't detract from the outstanding powerful quality of such animation. I'm te first one defending Fantasia and thinking It's an underappreciated work of art. Thanks for your comment tho
@@JunoneMaster3000 It doesn’t effect art and movies that were made from around the original Jurassic Park and before because a lot it was based on the science at the time and assumptions. I find this scene beautiful and the atmosphere is amazing. Nowadays, it just comes off as willful ignorance to depict dinosaurs like they were in Jurassic Park and before. Obviously, creative liberties when it comes to art is inevitable, but at least give them the correct anatomy. We have pretty good idea on how dinosaurs look and behaved nowadays.
@@Lord_Tigerr You should watch Prehistoric Planet, the dinos depicted are scientifically accurate.
As an expert teacher said "We would like to remind you all that inaccurate does not mean bad."
Got to say, I do love the strings between 1:30 and 1:42. It just builds the tension so amazingly!
yeah that scene is living rent free in my mind since I saw that at like what...96?
@@BrenTenkage 1940
Pizzicato.
As a child when I saw this, this scene is the most memorable for me, I was going through a 'dinosaur phase' and this was a good interpretation of dinosaurs, this scene terrified my friends, not me though. I watched a lot of horror movies when I was a kid so this scene didn't scare me but fascinated me instead. One of my best favorite scenes in this movie ❤
0:10 always gives me the chills. Just the way they look out for the T-rex is so ominous and the music only makes it eerier.
Still funny how the little dinosaur uses the opportunity to steal what I assume is some sort of nutritious root dug up by the bigger dinosaur while the latter is distracted.
The build up to and Rexy's sudden appearance are phenomenal 👏
I also really love how all the dinos look up like they just heard the final boss music. It’s kinda hilarious to me.
@@VersusARCH I watched the narrated version; they're actually clams

Childhood Ruined
Bro, that hits me deep
Know what I love about this aside from the pure amazing marriage of visual and audio? The inaccuracies.
And I mean that in an unironic way. This is a BEAUTIFULLY animated accurate depiction of how these animals were viewed at the time. All the care that went into everything you see had to be studied and fact checked to produce these images in a way that was appealing and likely the best of knowledge at that time.
Thank you Disney for preserving such a brief window of perspective.
Same! It's fascinating that, despite how innacurate it is nowadays, there was a time where this scene was considered a perfectly realistic portrayal of the Mesozoic ages. As far as I know, the only thing that was deliberately innacurate was drawing the T.rex with three fingers; I think Walt Disney himself even sent a letter to a paleontologist that gave him advice for the film, explaining that it was done because it made the Rex's animation look better and more threatening.
@@patronsaintofprocrastination I do remember reading about that- and honestly I can respect it from a visual storytelling aspect. Sometimes an artistic choice is fine- so long as it doesn’t truly interrupt the experience.
I used to reenact this scene with my dinosaur toys in my sandbox.
This was back when Disney was actually good and had integrity.
The problem isnt that disney doesnt make good stuff anymore, its that they dont have to. Beacause they ere too big to fail.
@Tora Dora very correct, now what they do is just remake stuff and ruin beloved franchises such as star wars.
@@nucleargods4032 they didnt ruin star wars, they ruined the sequels. Star wars is still really good.
And they made movies that were directed at all audiences instead of just children. Fantasia was basically a love letter to animation by Walt Disney, but it flopped and he lost that spark/passion afterwards
This, to me, is a true Disney masterpiece
83 years ago this was made and still more powerful than those of 2024. I love the old Disney films.
The stegosaurus backpedaling the first time had me dying 😂
Leaving aside the inevitable examples of 'paleontology marches on', this sequence is one of the best in the entire movie. You really, REALLY see the terror in that poor Stego's eyes, and feel the hopelessness of his situation. And the way they utilize 'Rite of Spring' is amazing, too - you cannot hear that final 'dahn dahn DAHHN' without seeing the T-Rex's roar of triumph - or at least, I can't. And this was in 1940 - if Disney had been able to keep up this winning streak clean through the rest of the decade (instead of being derailed by WW2), one can only imagine the level of artistry they might have been able to achieve.
2:24 did he die?
Yes
I don’t care. Inaccurate depictions of dinosaurs are still cool.

Reality is often scarier than fiction
0:54 Miss Stegosaurus was MOVIN
When I saw this as a kid, I was actually glad the T.Rex won as its always been my favorite dinosaur! 🙂
Stego was my favorite but even so my $ is on the Rex, there's a reason it's number 1 even though these two never coexisted at the same time
Is it still your favorite now that we understand them to have been scavengers rather than hunters?
@@Kunsoo1024 Not totally correct. The T-Rex did both. If it couldn't find something to eat it hunted, but if it found something it ate it and took the day off. Kind like how we choose between cooking dinner and ordering take out
The stegosaurus was one hell of a trooper! He put up a good fight and died. May he RIP.
Goodness that part when the two are tip-toeing in a stand off still sends chills down my spine. By far my favorite part.
It's so cool to see how far paleontology has come, along with the way we thought about dinosaurs. This animation is an example of that.
It's incredible and completely accurate how a little while later you see the T rex dying of thirst and walking along the rest completely unable to be a hunter.
I feel sad for stego cuz his waddle was sooo adorable
dang, I know this is just a little cartoon, but now I feel kind of sad. A pretty good cartoon to be able to do that.

Imagine what would have happened if you had seen the current Jurassic World as a child 😥
Same for me except with Night on Bald Mountain. I guess I was just too familiar with the Land Before Time to be phased by this.
Theres something very charming about the older depictions of dinosaurs
Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus rex never met each other. T-Rex lived 66 million years ago in the Cretaceous period, while Stegosaurus lived 80 million years prior in the Jurassic period. However, Stegosaurus lived alongside another predator called Allosaurus, and there's even fossil evidence of their interactions with each other.
Poor Stegosaurus lived with four relatively large predators, Allosaurus, Saurophaganax, Ceratosaurus, and Torvosaurus.
Didint they learn to: *STAND TOGETHER*
Wow guys! I have never got this many likes! TYSM

Scientific inaccuracies aside, it's a great piece of animation, I love the old retro dinosaur art.
Hello fellow Gundam fan.
Technically it was Scientifically accurate at the time
scientists are always changing their statements so who cares
Just imagine if Disney had allowed blood by that time
Edit: NOOOOOOO, THE CHONKY BOI/GURL D:
This is my favorite Fantasia segment. It’s like watching an animated historical documentary but with classical music.
I mean, this depiction is very outdated.
Telling everyone how inaccurate this is doesn't make you a cool person
Maria Vazquez neither does telling them they're not cool for telling you about the inaccuracies.
Is there anything wrong with doing it for fun?
He’s Right The Stegosaurus Lived During the Jurassic Period and the Tyrannosaurus lived During the Cretaceous Period it Would Make More Sense if it was a Fight between a Allosaurus and a Stegosaurus or a fight between a Ankylosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus (thought Walking With Dinosaurs already did both of these fights)
Yes, the movie wasn't focus on paleontological investigation at the time, it was a concept about primitive life, I love it, if you want to see realistic dinosaurs, dinosaur planet or recent natgeo documentaries are a good option.
SHUT up it don't matter of they all were in different time period some dinosaurs like the ones In this one sometimes join other time period dinos herds
This shit was scary AF as a child but I couldn't stop watching Fantasia, I was obsessed 😂
even the t-rex looked sad, seeing what he had done made him sad but it is the circle of life
Fantasia is a piece of museum. 🏛️ Bravo for this excellent masterpiece! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Eating a prey alive like most predators today.

Despite the scientifically inaccurate designs, I think this sequence was ahead of its time.

@Ivo von Bowser Kai Um, honey, if you actually bothered to read this comment, it is complimenting the amazing animation in this sequence. The only one being an over-sensitive snowflake here is you. Stop hunting for reasons to get offended.
When I was little, my mom would sometimes bring me over to my grandmother's house (This was before we moved in) and she and I would sit in her room together and watch the Fantasia VHS tape on her TV. This and Beethoven's VI along with Night on Bald Mountain have always been my favorites and even though I'm 18 and me and my family have moved in with my grandmother, I still love this scene and I still try and act along with the Tyrannosaurus all while making sound effects when we have movie night and someone picks Fantasia.
I think the inaccurate depictions of the dinosaurs in the Rite of Spring sequence are what make it memorable, because they allow us to learn how people used to think dinosaurs looked like and lived during this time. For example, how it was once thought that sauropods lived in the water, probably because nobody thought an animal of their size could support its bulk on land.
I remember being scared watching this as a kid. My Aunt had this in VHS. Night On Bald Mountain is another one that stuck with me.
Night on Bald Mountain is absolutely the scariest thing Disney ever did.
Gotta love that old outdated three fingered kangaroo postured tyrannosaur, even if it’s inaccurate as hell makes for a scary creature lmao
Xd you're right
That's not tyrannosaurus, that's a giganotosaurus
@@user-zt3rr6tb6f nah it’s a T.rex. It literally says so in the title. Besides, Giganotosaurus wasn’t even discovered until 1993 and Fantasia was made in 1940.
I love how well composed the music is 👌
Fun fact: The stegosaurus lived farther back in time to the T rex than the dinosaurs did to us!
2:28 "everyone bugger off and let me eat in peace!"
Disney NEEDS to make another dinosaur movie. I know we just had The Good Dinosaur but a Disney movie with ACTUAL up-to-date dinosaurs would be fantastic. Disney could do accurate dinosaurs so well! And before you all lecture me about the 40's and how annoying I am or how "uncool" feathery dinosaurs are just imagine how good it could be.
