Both Fantasia and Fantasia 2000 on Blu-ray will be presented in digitally remastered 1080p video, in their original aspect ratios, and 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio on separate discs. The third and fourth discs in the set are DVD versions of the film and limited redundant bonus features.
Walt Disney’s experimental masterpiece Fantasia won two honorary Oscars for its innovative use of animation and music.
Fantasia 2000 begins where its predecessor, Fantasia, left off, with seven completely new segments and the return of the popular “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”, featuring breathtaking images coupled with classical music favorites.
In conjunction with these releases, Destino, the unfinished animated feature film created by Walt Disney and famed surrealist painter Salvador Dali will release. Begun in 1946, it was rediscovered in 2003 and completed by Walt’s nephew, Roy E. Disney. The collaboration between these two legendary artists will be available to own for the first time along with an all-new feature-length documentary that examines the surprising partnership between Dali and Disney.
