Wow! Such a good movie.

Too much of everything

Brilliant and touching

Best movie ever!

I'm not much on magicians, but Thistle is pretty adorable. I love this film next to Disney's Bongo because of the animated romance. It's just so "O.M.G." warm. Too bad this never came out in the U.S.. But for the record, I'm glad this is the only version known to exist because, seriously, if this was dubbed is English, it would be really crappy and clumsy, like the English dubbed version "The Elm-Chanted Forest". It wasn't nearly as good as the original Croatian version. Especially "Hurray for Betty Boop", which was actually animated Betty Boop shorts combined together into a full length movie with poorly written script and it was totally badly criticized, in which it was never released on newer VHS. and DVDs (it was only released once on VHS back in the mid 1980s), possibly never seen again when the 1980s died. Even the Super Mario Bros. anime movie is better left in Japanese. The original is always best, even if I don't understand foreign language.

I have seen this cartoon at the age of 6 or 7. It is a sequel to Cudesna Suma (English Title: The Elm Chanted Forest). Despite the popularity of the first one, the sequel never became quite so recognized by audiences. However, despite the better production, The Magician's Hat is and always will be my favorite. It is a movie I grew up with and I know it by heart. It wonderfully portrays the lives of the mystical and imaginary characters - the inhabitants of the Magic/Enchanted Forest which is under attack. Now, the creatures of the forest must fight the evil forces. It is something I would recommend to all regardless of their age and whereabouts for it is a cartoon worth seeing.
