Disney's much-hyped 50-day limited release of Fantasia is certainly paying off for the studio, as the animated classic holds the top sales spot its second week out and debuts at No. 15 on the rentals chart. Not bad for a 51-year-old movie. Another fast- selling oldie: 1960's Spartacus, which debuts at No. 12. The rest of the sales top 10 continues to look a lot like Christmas, while the rentals chart looks a lot like this past May. Megahits The Silence of the Lambs and Robin Hood are joined by newcomer Backdraft, while the remainder of the top 10 is crowded with box office also-rans from last spring: Switch, One Good Cop, The Marrying Man, and the Brian Bosworth actioner Stone Cold.
