Really scary now. When they can release what was a pretty major Hayley Mills title in pan and scan (as well as ABSENT-MINDED PROFESSOR), not much is sacred. That slew of Touchstone/Hollywood movies announced for this year (including THE DOCTOR and a few other really good ones)...guess we can't be too hopeful that we'll be getting OAR. I'm so-o-o-o glad Disney has already released a good percentage of their best titles in letterbox. In order to avoid a flipper disc, so that J6P can have his precious label art, Disney refuses to put OAR on one side and 1.33:1 on the other of these bare-bones releases. I find new reasons to daily praise Wal-Mart and Blockbuster and all supermarket chains which sell p&s DVD's. As has been mentioned by many, Disney has the deepest dichotomy of any studio when it comes to releasing superlative vs. worthless product. Guess we should be grateful the superlatives are still being squeezed out... but for how long?
