review:
'Fantasia' by Jane Turley is a short story taking place in the not too distant future where Walt Disney is revived from his cryogenic suspension. He wakes to find a world changed by global warming.

In the year 2031, Walt Disney is brought back. He immediately wants to know how the Winnie The Pooh movie did at the box office (which results in jokes about poo). He also learns about how life is now on Earth. There are amazing breakthroughs in movies, but the Earth is also suffering because of climate change. During the story, he catches up on movies he hasn't seen (like Toy Story), and he makes some interesting choices.

The story is a short enough story at 23 pages. I know a bit about Walt Disney, so it was weird to have him be so grouchy, and to alse be using British slang. I thought the climate change aspect would be more heavy-handed but it wasn't too bad. It wasn't a badly written story, but overall, just kind of average.

I received a review copy of this short story from Sweet and Salty Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this short story.
