      Teddy B A pitch-perfect adaptation of the Hans Christian Anderson story with an ending that will bring most anyone to tears. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/24 Full Review Rasmus K It was a great watch. It only lasts 7 minutes so it is not very long. The music is good and is the only audio in the short. Reminds me of the snowman. Suprisingly heartbreaking for a disney short. Stays true to the source material. Only bad thing is that there are a few 3d animated things in the short which while good do not stand the test of time really well, but they are small and dont take away from the short. Recommend Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/23 Full Review Audience Member It looks great as always but that doesn't do much to change the fact that The Little Matchgirl remains one of Disney's most heartbreaking shorts to date. Good Lord, this one didn't pull its punches. Makes me wonder if Fantasia 2006 could've reached the same level of critical acclaim as the original that 2000 never really achieved, despite being the only sequel Walt Disney had approved of in his lifetime.
