    Big News for Disney DVD

    BTW, I'm happy for people that they're going to be getting their DVDs, but I'm thoroughly disgusted with Disney for their reasoning: they want to soak people dry for money now and then make them buy the discs in 5 years all over again when a new format comes out.

    Big News for Disney DVD

    Ol' Buddy Bert: (Gosh, that's fun to write. I feel like I'm Ernie now!): Thanks for telling me WHERE the cuts were. What were the cuts specifically OF? Wolfy: I thought I remembered seeing the film uncut in 1990. But I may just be hallucinating again. ;) But I don't think McCarthyism was the...

    Matt and Danny, It sounds like he's going to make me a copy, and then I can trade directly with you guys. I'll be in touch when he sends it to me. Croonchy!

    Big News for Disney DVD

    Ahh. Sorry. I jumped ahead to the Ultimate Disney thread, didn't read the Termite Terrace thread all the way through for the first time. That's irritating. I certainly don't wish to offend or degrade anyone, but since DVDs in particular are supposed to be preserved historical copies of the...

    Disney's Widescreen "for Dummies"

    See, now THIS is what I'm talking about. :) If you want to please fans of both formats, release it in widescreen and then EDUCATE people on how to zoom in if they prefer that the whole screen be filled. We were talking about this in another thread (Roger Rabbit, perhaps?) and I could never...

    Everyone keeps talking about Fantasia being edited on DVD. What's been edited?

    OK. While Daffyfan takes a few minutes to catch his breath... ;) A friend of mine has a couple of these on tape, maybe more. (I remember the one Dr. Tooth described.) There's also one (maybe it's the same one) where the Chef does his usual juggling of the spoons while singing his song, and...

    The Complete History of Mahna Mahna and his alter ego Bip Bipadotta

    Yep, Scott, that's the guy I'm talking about. Didn't know that was an actual sketch on the show, though. Thanks, guys! Every other version of this character seems to make sense, except for that one creepy guy from Sesame Street. He's just way out of left field. In other words, three (or...

    Muppety Capitalism: Muppet Monopoly coming soon

    I don't think Piggy was originally intended as a metaphorical representation of a woman. The notion of a glamorous female pig was supposed to be funny in the same way that the completely ungraceful ostriches were when they did the ballet in Fantasia. Now she's more of a female icon, which is...

    The Complete History of Mahna Mahna and his alter ego Bip Bipadotta

    Thanks for starting this thread, Scott. I've wondered about this for some time. They often credit the first appearance of Mahna Mahna as being on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1968, with the wild orange hair and everything. But then why wouldn't they have just used the same puppet the following year...

    National Day of Puppetry Menu

    No prob, Jamie. I think most of us can relate. I've been doing an ongoing temp job for the past month, which is the most steady check I've had since moving out to LA. I'm still struggling to make ends meet, but I had to turn down another part-time job offer anyway, because I'd have been working...

    Remembering Fred Rogers...

    Name-calling was perhaps the inappropriate term -- I meant the comment about Wolfy's parenting skills seemed a bit much. Anyway, I think she's left the thread, and I'm not mad at you, just concerned that we get along. So let's just drop the whole thing.

    Remembering Fred Rogers...

    Well, this was SUPPOSED to be a thread honoring a great man's memory. Rowlf, I don't see why there was a need for name calling. And while I disagree with Wolfy's opinion about Mr. Rogers, it is her opinion and she is entitled to it. It's not a fact as you keep insisting it is. Wolfy, I was...
