3: unnecessary musical numbers

There are maybe three necessary musical numbers in the entirety of Don Bluth's work, and I think two of them are in Anastasia.

And I'm seriously on the fence about that one in An American Tail.

Characters have to sing for it to be a musical number

Polevaults back to work hell but when Don Bluth goes for Disneyesque stories, it gets weird. And Rock-a-Doodle happened

Rock-a-Doodle baffles me to this day because it exists, was made, and actually did fairly well at the time, considering it's nightmare fuel wrapped in some weird subtext

I don't think I ever saw Rockadoodle, but Don Bluth in general is good at ratcheting up pure nightmare fuel.

Thumbelina was my fave don bluth film. Jacquimo's wings always seemed weird to me but I could never pinpoint why

there's a belief that the sun won't rise unless the rooster crows
Mica
@Micabean

but then there's a dumb rooster fight right at dawn bc the bad guys wanna usurp and crush the good guy elvis rooster

and he misses sunrise and the sun rises without him crowing

so the cult is shattered and he becomes disillusioned and must go on a journey of self-discovery in order to come back and kick that guy's ass
