Incredible. The similarities between Te Fiti/Te Ka and the Spring Sprite/The Firebird are unbelievable. It's like the movie pays homage to one of the most underrated movies in the animated canon. I always thought that Fantasia 2000 is one of the best Disney sequels ever created, equally adequate with its predecessor. The music is awesome, the direction is amazing and the animation is so lush and beautiful. The fact that Moana uses characters so similar to the last segment makes me respect the movie ever more now. I planned on seeing it when it comes out on Blu-ray. I had some small doubts about seeing it at the theaters, but now it's something I'll definitely check out. Just have to wait until December 22nd.
