Sometimes this is all we get from the studio. More details to follow as we receive them.

So true! Looking forward to this one!Originally Posted by Johnny Angell /t/324076/bvhe-announcement-peter-pan-diamond-edition-blu-ray#post_3981304
I like that cover art.
Sigh. The older I get, it seems the more kids movies I buy.
If Peter Pan is a kid movie, put me done as a kid. Magical story-telling never gets old.Johnny Angell said:The older I get, it seems the more kids movies I buy.

MatthewA said:I like the artwork, too. It's light years above and beyond the hideously cluttered ones they've been doing.
Agreed. I think "kid's movies" is a pretty limiting definition for most films that bear it. It's an arbitrary, marketing-driven distinction that says nothing about a film's age-appropriateness.
Perhaps I should have said...the older I get the more I buy movies from my childhood. Of course Disney almost always delivers for the kids and the adults in one package.rich_d said:If Peter Pan is a kid movie, put me done as a kid. Magical story-telling never gets old.
If we get those compilation films (and I hope we do because they are enjoyable), I'd almost be willing to bet the changes will still be present. They didn't restore Fantasia's infamous censored sequence (they did clean it up a little so it was less jarring than the DVD and laserdisc renditions), and I suspect they'll let these edits remain, too, as wrongheaded as they are.Originally Posted by t1g3r5fan /t/324076/bvhe-announcement-peter-pan-diamond-edition-blu-ray#post_3981811
I'm hoping that next year we can get some of the package films from the 1940s out on Blu; tops on my list are Make Mine Music and Melody Time fully restored to their original theatrical exhibition (the former had The Martins and the Coys sequence removed from home video and the latter had some edits to the Pecos Bill segment). But then again, this is Disney we're talking about.
I think they can put MMM, Melody Time and F&FF on one big boxed set. That'd be fine with me. Also, 3 Caballeros and Saludos Amigos would make a decent double-disc. They really do need to restore the "smoking" scenes to Pecos Bill and the Goofy segment from Saludos. Nowadays they get around those things by putting on that little PSA with Pinocchio coughing up a fit from the cigar; done deal.t1g3r5fan said:I'm hoping that next year we can get some of the package films from the 1940s out on Blu; tops on my list are Make Mine Music and Melody Time fully restored to their original theatrical exhibition (the former had The Martins and the Coys sequence removed from home video and the latter had some edits to the Pecos Bill segment).

The fact that they'd already dropped about a minute from an already short feature (Saludos Amigos) due to a shot of Goofy smoking, is the sole reason I've absolutely never purchased that title on home video. I think times have moved on, and the film deserves to be seen in its entirety.MatthewA said:They don't need to alter their movies. I think an anti-tobacco PSA should be sufficient, along with a reminder that Walt died of lung cancer.
Three Caballeros would make a stunning Blu-ray.
