Are you the same guy who created (or posted in) this thread?:

EDIT: Wait, you’re talking about the post-'97 versions, not the '97 ones. I assume the same thing would apply to those, where it would be publication (i.e., alteration) + 95 years. Assuming that what other people have said is accurate; I’m a bit skeptical if the +95 policy would still apply even after life+70 was enacted, but then again, I’m no expert. But if +95 applies to the '97 versions, it would necessarily apply to the other versions as well if the credits haven’t been changed.

Not sure about dubs, unfortunately. I’m guessing that they’d have the same copyright status as the original version provided that the end credits haven’t been changed. Though again, I’m not an expert on this matter.
