I haven't yet. Anyone have comments?
Most of the time I have little concern over the changing of them, usually it's an issue for home release. In this case I agree with you. The chants are the first thing the audience should hear.MatthewA said:I saw it Monday, to celebrate finally finding a new apartment. It was great to see the film on the big screen, and the 3-D wasn't terrible, and parts of it worked well, but it never transcended its 2D origins.
What I did dislike was the addition of the current Walt Disney Pictures logo with music. Originally, it was silent, so that the loud Swahili chants of "Circle of Life" are supposed to be the first thing you hear. It mars the effectiveness of that moment somewhat.

It's strange how The Great Mouse Detective and Oliver & Company have their original WDP logos replaced, but The Black Cauldron keeps them. I wonder if it's because the first two had theatrical re-releases and TBC didn't?MatthewA said:This isn't the first time. They removed Pixar's custom logo from all movies that had it, including Toy Story, where it was supposed to fade straight from the blue background to the wall of Andy's room. The 1980s and 1990s Walt Disney Pictures logo seems to be the only one that gets targeted for replacement.
Thank you! I've actually had a difficult time finding out which version of the film this was and was just about to ask this very question.Greg Kettell said:BTW, It wasn't the special edition version of the film - no "Morning Report" song.
I thought the same thing at first but I kinda doubt that the number of people with 3-D capable TVs will really make a big dent in its grosses.MatthewA said:I doubt Beauty and the Beast will do all that well since the 3D Blu-Ray has just come out.
