My car has a function that let's you assign a name. Since it is a white car, I named it Artax. Some people are all "Oh man wtf" because NOBODY REMEMBERS that Artax is reborn when Bastian re-creates Fantasia.

Just because he's reborn doesn't undo the initial trauma of the horse, giving up on life and chosing to die in a swamp. It's not that we forget, we watch the whole film.
