So the story of Chanteclair the rooster were put away for the Sword in the Stone? I guess a certain Don Bluth, brought to Disney in 1957 to work on Sleeping beauty, found the story good enough since he made Rock-A-Doodle in 1991.

This is an interesting example of a Disney film which personally I don't find to be their best work, yet in spite of that I do enjoy this film more than a handful of others that are more widely known. Jungle Book and Dumbo for example aren't exactly among my favorite films and only get a watch from me when I watch all of the Disney films I grew up with in the order that they were made. Sword in the Stone however I enjoy more than those films I think largely because of the characters; especially Merlin, Madame Mim, and Archimedes. The scene where Archimedes is laughing hysterically at the model plane crashing into the moat makes me laugh just as hard from his voice alone. When I was younger it used to annoy me so much that Arthur's voice was constantly changing throughout the film, that is until I hit puberty myself and my voice would crack mercilessly for the next 2 or 3 years. Since then that's how I viewed Arthur going through just that, making his ever changing voice more sympathetic and relate-able from my perspective.

Here's a history fact, between both November 1963 and January 1964 when Walt Disney's THE SWORD AND THE STONE (1963) premiered on Christmas 1963, it was sad times in the early 1960s for the lost of two men, first was President John F. Kennedy for his assassination and second the original author T.H. White died from heart failure while being on a ship that was hitting for Greece, but he did see Walt Disney's animated film before his life was over.

So when I was a child, I enjoyed this animated classic and sometimes I said to himself the Disney studio could have made THE SWORD AND THE STONE as an animated film trilogy just to see how King Arthur rules his country and see what happens to him when he still wants Merlin by his side, but let's hope THE ONCE AND FUTURE KING can come true from the Disney Studios. Also I read the original book by T.H. White THE SWORD IN THE STONE (1938) it was so peaceful and full of fun excitement, believe me the book is great, it's the best book I ever read!

Wow. I'm almost a month late to the punch. This came out the exact day I left the country to go to Disney World. But yeah, The Sword in the Stone isn't exactly one of my favourite films by Disney. I still really enjoy some scenes like the Wizard's Duel and Higgetus Figgetus, but other scenes really drag and carry some pretty mean spirited feelings about them, such as the squirrel who fell in love with Arthur being forgotten about entirely. I haven't really much else to say about this film, it left such a small impact on me. This is probably the only Disney film I'm glad they're remaking in live action, because it would work better in live action than animation and because there are more areas you can take the story. I am grateful of the film's existence though, because of such iconic scenes, like Arthur pulling out the sword and iconic characters such as Merlin. Whenever I go to Disney World I always remember to visit the sword in the stone by Prince Charming's Carousel. I think you're misinformed about the show being cancelled in Orlando; when I was there, I saw it at least 3 times.

I for one, see The Sword and the Stone as a mix-up of good and bad. wish I could like Arthur because of how cute he is, but as soon as I realized he had three voice actors, (each trading lines in the same scene nonetheless), it ended up confusing me. I'm unable to enjoy listening to his voice because I keep hearing a different version. And if I can't like the child character enough, it affects how I feel about the other characters. I wish I could sympathize with Arthur with how cruel his brother is, but that only makes me hate his brother. I guess my favorite character in this movie is Archimedes. Despite his temper, he actually shows more compassion to Arthur than any of the other characters combined! I suppose I like the dueling scene as well, enough for me to wish there could have been more animal transformations.

@TherealRNOwwfpooh6 жыл бұрын
Most likely, since right after his working on _Bambi_ & _Fox & the Hound_ he left. Even his most successful (with 13+ sequels to its credit) franchise _The Land Before Time_ (despite the fact that Don Bluth only directed the more somber 1988 original [somber because of its tone considering Littlefoot's mother dies literally on-screen in comparison to Bambi's mother being shot off-screen, lack of songs excluding the "If We Hold On Together" ending credits by Diana Ross & of course, beyond the scope of the film, what happened to Ducky's original child actress Judith Eva Barsi, as she was unjustly murdered by her scummy father in a double-murder suicide exactly 4th months before the film hit theaters, shortly following her 10th birthday] & is far away from any connection regarding the musical sequels), had elements from those movies peppered in. For example, _Littlefoot_ - as the last Apatosaurus/Brontosaurus of his kind according to the original film (the sequels adding several new "longnecks" notwithstanding, as well as introducing fans to Littlefoot's absentee father Bron & his own herd, too) - shying away from the other prehistoric animals is mimicking _Bambi_ doing the same when all of the forest animals come to greet him (since Bambi is the crown prince of the forest, after all).

This is another Disney movie I remember watching a lot as a kid, mainly since it's my older sister's favorite Disney movie. I admit, it's hard for me to really say I care that much for the main story of the movie and the characters, but the reason I remember this movie so fondly is because of how funny it is at times. Specifically, Archimedes in general. Pretty much every part with Archimedes leads to either great memorable lines, or some really funny slapstick. The only things that really bother me, even when I first watched the movie, is Arthur constantly changing voices, and the reuse of animation at times. Other than that, I can't think of much to complain about with this movie, but also not much to give praise to. Then again, it's been a few years since I watched this movie. I should probably give it a rewatch at some point.

Ah yes, of all the Disney films betwixt the golden age and the Renaissance, this one gets mentioned the least. When trying to recall the hundreds of adaptations of the Authurian legend, Monty Python seems to get more attention. But for how obscure Sword in the Stone might be, I've seen it! So happens to be recorded from a broadcast to a VHS in my home, just like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Anyway there are most certainly changes I would have made in the interest of pacing and tightening the story. Still the beating heart of character development and a fine moral get the passing grade.

My understanding is that The Sword in the Stone was meant to lay or considered for laying the groundwork for a TV series, hence the episodic approach, the sloppy animation style, and the abrupt ending. The final film is in basically three sections (the fish sequence, the squirrel sequence, and the Madam Mim sequence) each about the length of a half hour of television. I don't know whether this is true, but my thinking is that other adventures showing various aspects of Wart's education would have made up a half-hour animated TV show. That seems logical, but true or not, I do remember reading somewhere that Sword in the Stone was seriously considered for television.

The Sword in the Stone IMO is one of the weakest Disney's films for me. While I enjoy the Wizards duel, and Madam Mim, the rest of the movie just felt really dull and flat to me. The main problem with the movie is the story, we really don't get to see the Sword that much, it's just glanced over and forgot about until the movie. And what does nature and love have do to with Arthur learning to become a king? I mean I get it it's to prove he has to have brain as well as brawn, but at the same time did 'we' the audiences learned anything as much as he learned something from this? Also the animation is really dull, there's something that's just missing from it, and as much I love Mary Poppins and the Sherman Brothers, the songs are really forgettable, I remember the names, but I forgot the lyrics to them. So overall it's one of the weakest Disney film IMO.
