So… Even though a ton of movies from Disney Animation (primarly the one’s released from 1937-1997) are easily accessible nowadays via Blu-ray, 4K, and streaming, many of these movies have numerous alterations and/or revisions over the years that have stuck on without an option to see these movies as how they were originally seen in theaters (at least, as close as you can).
For some of these movies, there’s more then one major version with extra changes to them that are a pain to do and should be acknowledged more than you probably think they need to.
This is why I plan on hunting out several versions of these movies either on home media or through higher quality and/or HDTV airings of them to provide definitive (at least in your guys’ eyes) versions along with additional versions for people to decide on their preferred version of these movies.
Here’s a rundown on the one’s that need to be looked for:
~ Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs (either the 1994 Laserdisc release or any decent quality release official or unofficial pre-2001)
~ Bambi (any pre-2011 Diamond Edition release or TV airing is appreciated)
~ Alice in Wonderland (any pre-2011 Blu-ray release or airing or any materials are appreciated if found and sent over via PM)
~ Peter Pan (same applies from the predecessor)
~ Lady and The Tramp (This one’s tricky as any non-widescreen release has been either in pan-and-scan or reframed and edited for the academy ratio. Just in case, any and all pre-2011 Diamond releases regardless of the aspect ratio they’re in are welcomed as long as you clarify which release or version they’re in)
~ Sleeping Beauty (Any pre-2008 DVD or Blu-ray release or airing is appreciated)
~ The Jungle Book (Any pre-2007 Platinum Edition DVD release is appreciated)
~ The Aristocrats (Any pre-2012 release is appreciated
~ Robin Hood (Any home media release or TV airing pre-2012 is appreciated)
~ The Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh
• individually as it’s a packed film of previously released shorts, “Winnie The Pooh and The Hunny Tree”, Winnie The Pooh and The Blustery Day", and “Winnie The Pooh and Tigger Too” (any pre-2013 release or airing is appreciated)
~ The Little Mermaid (any and all home media releases or airings, aside from the 2019 4K Edition, are appreciated
~ Beauty and The Beast (this one is an entire beast of itself, no pun intended, but any and all non-4K releases and their extra cuts are appreciated)
~ Aladdin (same as the last two)
~ Lion King (same as follows)
~ Hercules (any pre-2013 release or airing is appreciated)
