Music - Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, performed by The London Symphony Orchestra, 1940

I love the fact that whoever made this obviously worked very hard to come as close as possible to the original Disney animation in spirit if not always in exact form when selecting computer animation clips.

The Rite of Spring is my favorite part of Fantasia. I like how it first starts out traveling through intergalactic space to our own Milky Way Galaxy and makes to when our planet was being formed. I like how it goes to when life first formed and evolved since then until the age of the dinosaurs. Such beautiful segues. The film came out in 1940 and they didn't know much about the dinosaurs at that time. It wasn't until the 1970's that scientists started to unveil their mysteries. No one knew how the dinosaurs became extinct until 1980 when the father and son team of Walter and Luis Alvarez, both geologists, discovered that the dinosaurs became extinct from an asteroid strike 66 million years ago. 10 years after that on an oil expedition in the Gulf of Mexico left to the discovery of the Chicxulub Crater around the Yucatan Peninsula measuring an astonishing 93 miles across. It was caused my an asteroid about the size of Mount Everest. After the impact in a matter of weeks, the dinosaurs as we know it would be wiped out. As a matter of fact it was the second great extinction event in earth's history, wiping out 75% of the species on the planet. The earth and life itself wouldn't recover for millions of years after the Chicxulub Asteroid impact. With the extinction of the dinosaurs gave rise to mammals and eventually paved the way for us humans. I wouldn't say the dinosaurs are totally extinct. The birds are their direct descendants.

I know it's a mashup of footages but it takes a series of research to fit them to Fantasia's plot. I love your addition of thunder and roaring sounds in the T-Rex scene which make it more intense.

Man... this is one of the best fanmade of an animation masterpiece!!!

Despite the dinosaurs' extinction was the effect of an asteroid impact, you recreated so well all the atmosphere of the classic animation counterpart.

All my compliments :) !!!

I find it so great that they put a bit of Disney's Dinosaur into this update of the original Walt Disney's Dinosaurs

[mirzatheteenageboy]

If Disney happened to recreate fantasia into live action, I would totally need this scene

[violetlight]

This was incredible! The work that must have gone into picking the appropriate footage for each movement of the piece is amazing! It really fit well to the original, and made it more accurate to current scientific understanding (not that Fantasia didn't do wonderfully for 1940!). Thank you for sharing!

[Phippsta]

This is fantastic, this might well be the best reworked Disney/old animation I have ever seen! Pretty much completely Scientifically accurate/up to date. I love how the music (quite possibly one of my favourite Classical works) still works so well alongside it as well! I know people are moaning about the Sound effects, but they suit the footage! Props to you uri0606 for your magnificent job on this!

Walt Disney's Fantasia has always harbored many different myriads of emotion, wonder, and a general sense of old world nostalgia for many years to come.
As for this number of Walt Disney's timeless concert themed classic that first officially aired in 1947: Fantasia's segment called 'the Rite of Spring' by Igor Stravinsky (though originally meant as a public ballet, was by all dead to rights by Walt Disney and his dedicated team of talented artists, animators and story makers upon hearing the number ideal for this segment had decided to turn the viewing and hearing experience for their Fantasia program into a full-blown pageant. And if you ask anyone who knows this all too well, you can bet that they were very glad it worked out that way for everyone) I'll honestly admit the original scenes for this number were fun, whimsical and imaginative during it's time but these scenes (though fanmade) however on a real world standing and practical long-term basis it all basically seems much more reasonable and even more believable especially from a scientific, statistical and logical point of view. Though I am glad this number (courtesy of Walt Disney's Fantasia) and these kind of scenes worked incredibly well together just as much as the original set up masterfully did in 1947 😊

This is seriously brilliant. It truthfully follows the Disney version but is light-years ahead in images and sounds. The research, the careful editing, the attention to detail, the continuity - the person who did this is a true artist, top of his field (I'm assuming it's a 'he' since uri is masculine). Anyway, it's a stunning piece of work, streets ahead of anything else I've seen, and Rite of Spring is not "ruined" by claps of thunder or TRex roars - the images were enhanced by these without detriment to the music. Congratulations, Uri0606. A magnificent piece of work. I was sorry when it ended.

[noxi]

Absolutely amazing! So different from the original one but so beautiful and incredibly precise! I loved watching it. Good job!

[lilmisstarabear]

I recognized many clips in this from some of my favorite documentaries, yet they fit together so seamlessly. A lot of time and hard work went into this and it shows.

[BlackCappedChickadee]

Some prehistory facts

1. Nothronychus
This Therizinosaur was 4 meters tall but had 90 centermeter long claws.

2. Mosasaurus
It wasn't related to dinosaurs but Monitor Lizards and Snakes.

3. Stenonychosaurus
It was the replacement for Troodon.

4. Tyrannosaurus
You thought it was mean? Well it was very caring to its babies.

5. Terror Birds
It took part in the North - South mass Migration but went extinct due to complications with Dire wolves and Smilodon.

6. Carnotaurus
The males may have had colourful arms to mate.

7. Archaeopteryx
It was the first fossil to have feathers.

[mlgodzilla]

Man I love this so much, great to see someone took the time and effort to remake it with new visuals

[CrystalSkyDrops]

Wow you got the vibe of the scenes right and everything! So good!

[RickRaptor]

This is a really cool idea and I like the creativity to find matching visuals. My only criticism would be the sound effects during the Tyrannosaurus scene. Come on, you don't need to ruin a piece of classical music by droning it out with thunder sounds and JP roars.

[freewilly]

Absolutely amazing work. I applaud ur effort!!

[darktrainer]

Why do I have a feeling that these videos are from an animal planet documentary or a BBC dinosaur documentary mash together But very clever good job

[darkstarmoonshadow]

Fantastic visuals the whloe thing is amazing and simply stunning.

[superbowsermatt]

The original rite of spring was completely different but that does not matter
