-->I know that this is all pure speculation, but it explains a LOT. Like the weird scene continuity, why the instruments take away screentime from leads, the blinking stained-glass window (who I'm guessing was the character who controlled the front doors in the original draft), the random audio dip, and why they keep reusing the day dimension bat footage. Seriously--there's something fishy about this movie..."

This is suggested in a comment on Phelous's review, but someone put forth a plausible theory that something must have happened during the production of this movie, whether it be behind-the-scenes drama, a writer's strike, etc, that resulted in the final movie being particularly bad, even when compared to the rest of the Golden Films collection. They theorized that the staff maybe had a somewhat passable script written and about half of the animation done when who knows what happened and they had to try and salvage the film the best they could. This could somewhat explain all the strange technical things wrong with this movie; why the sidekicks take up so much time when compared to the main characters, why there's so much reused animation, so many onscreen continuity errors, weird audio dips, etc.
Possibly, Melody was a bigger character originally but whatever happened happened and they were unable to get her voice across to come back to read the new lines, so they had to rewrite the script or lessen her character's presence to accommodate this. The commenter also guessed that the stained-glass window character could have been a bigger part of the movie originally (Their theory was that they originally controlled the door instead of the bats).

They theorized scenes drama. I can easily imagine that the staff maybe they had a somewhat passable script written and about half of the animation done when who knows what happened and they had to try and salvage the film the best they could.

up, and they were unable halfway through animating it before they suddenly had to rewrite it. Then they couldn't get her voice across the actress who voiced Esmermelody to come back to and read the new lines, so they had to rewrite the script or lessen her character's presence again to accommodate this. The commenter also guessed for that...only for animators to go on strike or something. Thus, the mad scientists--I mean "editors" behind this "movie" had to cobble something together with what little they ended up with.
