We really need someone like Roger Ebert though. He once called Disney out on their practice of cropping Snow White and other pre-widescreen classics to fit modern theater screens, and they listened. Subsequent reissues were pillarboxed.
Has he ever weighed in on the special editions? I can't recall if he ever reviewed them...
Contact him too. Try to get a hold of Andrew Sarris, Elvis Mitchell, Robert Osbourne, the people at TCM interested in film preservation, Kenneth Turan, celebs who Facebook and Twitter, ANYONE you can.
