NOTE: I've received confirmation from a trusted and respected Disney Historian ;) that no human figures in Cinderella were "traced" -- the mention of this in the bonus material must be in error. I've removed the incorrect remarks from the review content...and I hope that every rests easier...

Thank YOU Paul for not taking offense at my suggestion that the calibration of the viewing chain might have played a part in your impressions...I'm thrilled to hear that upon viewing this masterpiece on your front projection system (details...do give!) you concur that the integrity of the...

Firstly, Let's assure everyone that they are fully entitled (encouraged) to keep their laserdsic box sets. Consider the new DVD a companion to the laserdisc...the LD has some more extras and the DVD has the best movie transfer. Put your DVD inside your laserdisc box if you need to in order to...

What type of display do you have? Is it properly calibrated for grayscale and contrast? Reason I ask is that I was particularly impressed with how NOT over-blown the colors were. If anything...they tended to be less saturated than other modern cartoons (pocahontas, Aladin etc.) and most...

I can attest that the colors on the DVD when projected feel absolutely "right"...not a case of pumped colors for the "home video" market...I think that the LDI folks took great care to match colors to the intended originals...and very often they are quite subdued. It feels right. My bet is...

I've updated the special features to inlcude (some) play-time info. This was more-or-less taken by faith from the "hover time" that displays when you highlight the feature in the menu...a nice menu touch I appreciate Disney offering. The 9 old men feature clocks around 22 minutes. Also, I...

Mark, thanks for posting. Just the kind of discussion I love to see in these HTF review threads. If anyone out there has any "Ernest-esque" inside knowlege of what the deal is with the "tracing" I heard tale of in the special features do let us know...let's get to the bottom of this...

I'd love to hear Ernest's comments too, though my understanding is that he's no longer posting at HTF. I'll check on that, as well as get play-times for the special features tonight and update tomorrow. BTW, the "tracing" I brought up in the review was actually mentioned in the bonus...

Jefferson, so you have the laserdisc box set? Those of you with that set...I'd love to hear a report from you about the special features that appear on LD but are not on the DVD, on the DVD only, or on both. That would be great to hear. Of course, I'm sure some of the LD bonus material had...

Hey Jeff, My bad for not being more disciplined about recording the play-time...I had set out to do that with pen in hand and then ended up getting so into the bonus stuff that when I was done (hours later) I realized I hadn't recorded any of the run-times! Doh! I want to say that most of...

Oh no problem Reagan, I just wanted to make sure that you weren't misunderstanding anything from the quote that I took the liberty to post on the topic. I'm glad to have some healthy discussion on the matter and have different points-of-view expressed so please don't view my comments as an...

P.S. the RKO logo is missing (replaced with the modern Disney logo) but the original musical intro score is fully intact and overlays the new Disney logo leading into the title credits in the same manner...

Please be sure to read the whole article...he's not being extreme in the context of the larger discussion...and he's only saying that he doesn't side with those who *are* extreme in their view. In the next paragraph (which I just added to the quote) it goes on to say how in the case of the...
