Fantasia/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Donald Duck noticing the mundane ducks in his sequence. Actually, pretty much that whole sequence when it's not busy being a tearjerker.
    • The multitude of rabbits getting off at the end of the voyage. Parents will get it; kids won't.
    • Same concept applies to "Rhapsody In Blue", though sometimes the tearjerking element and the funny overlap very nicely.
      • In Rhapsody in Blue, special mention goes to the scene in the Subway where you can see everyone uncomfortably packed together, (This is actually Truth in Television given how crowded that stuff can be!) If you look at the squeezed in figures, you can see a foot poking out of the crowd, and A man's armpit in a woman's face. However, the crowning moment really comes when they get off the Subway, are still crowded, and are holding invisible handguards. They even walk like this, too!
    • The most clearly straight-up hilarious sequence is "Carnival of the Animals", with the yo-yo-obsessed flamingo and his peers who just won't get it.
      • Even before this: James Earl Jones: "Here, the sensitve strains of Impressionistic music combine with the subtle artistry of the animator to finally answer that age-old question...'what is man's relationship to nature?'" *is handed a sheet by an artist* "Oh, sorry. That age-old question 'what would happen if you gave a yo-yo to a flock of flamingoes?' Who wrote this?!"
    • In the DVD commentary (the one which talks about each segment), Donald came by. One of the guys complains why is Donald joining and he can't understand him. Donald brought the animals with him and the flooding waters. He told Donald they're doing a commentary not a reenactment. The commentary ends him asking where'd he parked the Ark.
  • The sorcerer giving Mickey a whap on the behind with the broom!
  • The "soundtrack" line imitating instruments. Especially the bassoon-- "drop the other shoe, will ya?" and the drums. (The triangle at the very end makes it art).
    • *raspberry*
  • Roy Disney and Mickey Mouse chatting on the commentary to The Sorcerer's Apprentice, talking about costumes and Mickey falling down the stairs repeatedly, the Brooms Union, bringing in more brooms from Warner Bros., and not using a stunt double.
  • The Dance Of The Hours sequence with Expys from La Gioconda. Hyacinth Hippo is Laura, Madame Upanova is La Gioconda, and Ben Ali Gator is Enzo. The whole thing is just hilarious.
