THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE and the Coolest FANTASIA Scene Ever

Director Jon Turtletaub and producer Jerry Bruckheimer enthusiastically talk on the huge influence by Disney’s masterpiece FANTASIA in the dancing broom/mop scene from the upcoming THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE.

“This is crazy… but, it is fun!” Hellz ya it is! The fact that Disney is selling the film by focusing on the FANTASIA comparison will help those still on the fence about it.

The film’s synopsis:

Walt Disney Studios, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Jon Turteltaub, the creators of the “National Treasure” franchise, present THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE — an innovative and epic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the center of an ancient conflict between good and evil. Balthazar Blake (NICOLAS CAGE) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (ALFRED MOLINA). Balthazar can’t do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (JAY BARUCHEL), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It’ll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE.

From Jerry Bruckheimer Films and Walt Disney Pictures, THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE, rated PG, materializes in theaters on July 14, 2010. Be sure to checkout the film’s official site here & on Facebook and Twitter.
