The Original: The 1940 animated movie Fantasia is largely remembered for one particular scene that featured Mickey Mouse cleaning a castle by using his wizard powers to force anthropomorphic brooms to do the work for him (itself adapted to live-action with The Sorcerer's Apprentice). But, another scene towards the end of the movie, is arguably more iconic - Night On Bald Mountain. In terms of Disney movies, the scene is quite a frightening piece: a giant winged gargoyle creature raises the spirits of the dead at night and little trolls dance around enjoying the mayhem until the sun begins to rise. The Planned Remake: Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless (Dracula Untold) will write the script based on the Night on Bald Mountain segment from Fantasia. How they intend to develop one scene from a movie into a full-length feature is anyones guess right now. Sources have suggested the live-action take will be similar to what Disney did with Maleficent, so the quality's pretty up in the air. What do you expect from these live-action remakes?
