Thanks. I still can't believe "Mickey and the Beanstalk" is on here because it might make people not want "Fun and Fancy Free." That's the best part.

I agree, already own fun and fancy free so a bit of a waste but maybe they have improved the cover.

Wave 3 is by far the best issue, Top-to-Bottom.
Thanks for posting all of these, Luke

Aren't there two versions of Mickey & the Beanstalk, one with the live action parts and the one withouth those scenes. I'm not sure but I know my dvd of FAFF has some live action mixed in. Is the short on this dvd the same?

Patrick -

Those live-action parts are the frame story of Fun and Fancy Free and therefore part of the FaFF version of Mickey & the Beanstalk. In the video (and TV?) version of M&tB without the rest of FaFF the live-action pieces have been edited out and replaced with animated segments with Ludwig von Drake and a Beetle character. I'd expect this version on this new DVD set, but I really don't know.

It is so awesome that they are including "Mickey and the Beanstalk" and "Sorcerer's Apprentice" on this set!

Man, I am very excited for this, even though I don't have the first volume. I don't view it as a waste for Beanstalk & Apprentice to be on here, as it just makes the set more complete, regardless of whether they are available elsewhere. They are still Mickey shorts. Smile

What really angers me is that Disney has completely folded to political correctness, and roughtly half, yes HALF of these cartoons have introductions to make sure the stereotypes and/or perceived "offensiveness" in the cartoons is addressed. They did this with only 2 or 3 cartoons on the Goofy set, but this is completely out of hand and annoying. What kids want to sit through an introduction before half the cartoons every time they watch them? I know I don't want to. And if the truth were known this stuff isn't even offensive! What I'm totally miffed about though is there's an introduction for Symphony Hour, now what in the world could possibly be taken the wrong way with that cartoon? Does anyone have any info on that, or the other ones for that matter?

p.s. I like this board alot, can't believe I found one just for Disney stuff. Sorry this had to be my first post. Smile

Sir Hawkins - I totally disagree with you.

Some of the cartoons present images that are totally wrong and kids can not tell the difference always. In fact, they may understand wrong to be right if they see Mickey Mouse performing.

The alternative of course is too edit the cartoons. The cartoons are art and I believe it is wrong to edit them.

Therefore, the introductions are the best way to go.

As far as I am concerned I just want to see Song of the South no matter how badly it offends somebody. If the answer is to allow the NCAAP to give a 20 minute discertation on why they dont like it so be it.

Just because someone else might be offended by it doesn't mean that Disney has to acknowledge it as offensive... I don't think any of it is, and it should be left alone and the offended parties can get over it. And the last I heard, the NAACP's official stance on SOTS is now "no position," so they wouldn't push for anything like that.

Sir Hawkins- welcome aboard. I felt the same way when I found UD.com. Smile

I think we are way too oversensetive a society right now. When I was a little kid back in the early 80's I watched these cartoons every day, and I don't think one tiny bit less of minorities or people of a different culture as an adult, nor can I ever remember feeling that way. And let's just say I did, I don't think Leanard Malton talking in my face for 30 seconds would have helped matters, I most likely wouldn't have even known what he was talking about. By Disney having those introductions they're not only admitting that the content is "offensive" (which it isn't) but they're also putting the idea that they're "offensive" into the minds of people and kids who wouldn't have even thought twice about it had the introductions not been there. Sorry but they're shooting themselves in the foot with this one. I'm going to have to rip and re-burn the DVD without the commentaries, what an unfortunate waste.
