Disney Completes Dali Animation
jbottero writes "Wired News has an interesting piece on a Salvador Dali animation coming out of Disney Studios. It seems that in 1946, Walt Disney and Dali teamed up on a short film called Destino. The film was shelved for money reason, and now, 57 years later, Disney animators has finished what Dali started. The six minute film will be shown in theaters next year before a Disney feature film. The remnants of the aborted film include 150 storyboards, drawings and paintings, which have sat for the last half-century in the Disney vaults. Notably, some of the project was modeled on the animation program Maya. An interesting quote from the article, Dali describes Walt Disney as one of America's greatest surrealists."

That would be cool.
I hate to burst your modern, surrealistic bubble, but Dali's inspirations came from his dreams, not from drugs. Taking acid to obtain Dali's inspiration is like kicking yourself in the nuts to get as pissed off as George Carlin.
It goes from God, to Jerry, to me.
That's like a minute per decade, almost.
