Top 10 Moments from The Sword and The Stone (1963)
After deciding to go with Arthur back to the castle and become his new teacher Merlin packs up all his stuff using magic while singing Higitus Figitus as he shrinks all his furniture into a small bag, possibly of the funniest moments is the sugar cup cuts the line and starts swatting the tea pot and Merlin puts a halt to the song and scolds it, and as the song is about to end Merlin really goes all out singing faster and faster until the stool he was standing on also gets shrunk and is put into the suitcase.
For a movie called The Sword in the Stone,the movie barely has anything to do with the actual sword in the stone its only mentioned in the beginning of the story and is only brought up at the end of the movie.
I feel bad for saying this but this is the only part of the movie I can remember. : /
Merlin basically convinces Arthur to play hookey from his dish washing duties in order to teach him about gravity by having them both turned into squirrels, while on this adventure Arthur runs into a female squirrel who instantly falls in love with him as she chases him all around the tree and even Merlin finds himself in the same situation, as Arthur repeatedly tries to tell her he's a human boy but she still doesn't understand which makes it all the more sadder when Arthur reverts back to human form as the girl squirrel is left heartbroken.
Merlin turns him and Arthur into fish and swim in the castle moat to teach him about using brains over bronze during their lesson Arthur gets chased by a giant fish who looks to devour him while Merlin is left incapacitated as Arthur is forced to use his wits to outsmart the bigger fish.
The opening song as the singer sets up the story with the tale of the sword in the stone.
