What is the OAR of Lady and the Tramp? Is it 2.35:1 or 2.55:1? It seems that since it was made in the early days of Cinemascope that it would be the latter.
Yeah, to this day I don't understand why Disney made the DVD 2.35 non-anamorphic and did not also include the 1.33 version of the film.That was the early days when Disney was into supporting DIVX and was shafting movie fans on a regular basis with their sub-par DVD transfers. Heck...they didn't even give us a 16x9 version of A Bug's Life until the SE was released at a later date!!!
Other (some horrid) early Disney DVDs that recycled laserdisc masters (some of which were "ok" 4x3 lbx transfers and some of which were HORRIBLE!!!)
Pocohontas
Little Mermaid
Mulan
Hurcules
Lady and the Tramp
Black Caulron
Black Hole
Nightmare before Christmas
James and the Giant Peach

because they just rehashed their LD masters on all of themHmmm. Flippant, but also misleading and inaccurate in the context of the entire question. The last release of Lady & the Tramp on laserdisc was available in both 2.35:1 (separate CLV and CAV SE editions) and the recomposed 4:3 (CLV only) aspect ratios. The DVD was a rehash of neither in at least one respect. The 5.1 track on the DVD corrected a handful of errors on the audio remix of the laserdiscs including bits of missing dialog and music.
