Rosenberg is either a liar or a lunatic. I'm hoping for the latter since I've never seen people at studios be this pathetic.
From what I can find, Gulliver's Travels is owned by Republic, so it's in the package currently licensed to Lionsgate by Republic's parent company Paramount (or Viacom, whichever is the official one).
UCLA holds original film materials, along with tons of other elements to the Fleischer library owned by Republic. This includes original negatives, positives, soundtrack negatives, original nitrate prints, etc. Not just Fleischer, either. It's funny how studios like Warner are proud to mention they were able to restore films from the camera negative, yet even when those prime materials are available they're left on the shelf. I'm fairly sure UCLA restored The Quiet Man years ago, despite the same elderly transfer from the 1980s is all that appears on TV and video. (or was it only preserved?)
