  • The Little Mermaid: The first version came out in 1990 and was released on VHS one year later. The new version has been made for the re-release in 1998 and people always hated it. After only releasing the 98-version for 15 years Disney finally had a heart (or Dollar-signs in their eyes) and put both versions on the Diamond Edition again. Today they also use the old version for TV-airings etc.

That is actually interesting - that they put BOTH version on the Diamond Edition - I wouldn’t mind them reducing every year if only we had the luxury of being able to choose which dub we wanted. I know it’s a question of many - and in the Danish dubbing world they say it’s because quality of the recordings is bad, but I’d rather have my VHS extracted soundtrack with hisses and pops than the new dubs - any day! 😄
