When I heard they were adapting Mickey’s mischief mishap adventure segment of Fantasia – The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – to a feature film, I just didn’t see there being enough story there. Then when I saw that the adaptation had pretty much the title alone in common with the musical montage, I was encouraged.
But it seems the iconic scene in which Mickey bites off more than he can chew and loses control of his magically motivated cleaning hardware will be featured in the movie. We saw a hint of it in the trailer and it appears there is a much more involved scene in the movie. Check out this minifeaturette on the subject:
I am still waiting for the purists to start bitching that this doesn’t respect the source material, and why isn’t Jay Baruchel a mouse??
