All I’m hoping for this release is that it includes the original Deems Taylor monologues, which I hope has been re-discovered by now. It doesn’t matter if the Pastoral Symphony segment is censored, as I plan to do my own reconstruction of the original roadshow version of the movie. Author UncutIsSuperior Time 5:45 PM Post linkįantasia is scheduled to be released on DVD and Blu-Ray as part of Disney’s Signature Collection sometime this year. So, a new book came out and we learned so much, and it is called, "Anguilosaurus, Killer of the Living". OFDb also says the Australian DVD has a 114 minute runtime (117 NTSC): The Deems Taylor intro, as per most foreign, versions is not included, however. It’s worth noting that foreign releases like the original German DVD appear to be built around the 1990 restoration and have the 1947 interstitial footage in 576i (the animated footage coming from the 2000 master). – Mushu Author Space Hunter M Time 2 7:39 PM (Edited) Post link “You missed!

It had some pretty bad vinegar syndrome, almost all of the color was gone, and it was most certainly not a “1940 print.” It was a reprint of the general release version from the late 40s. I happened to be the one who bought this print much earlier this year. UncutIsSuperior Author TonyWDA Time 2 8:50 AM Post link Do you know if there are any other versions of this item? The item you provided the link for is unavailable now. Well it does seem to have the RKO Radio Pictures logo so that dates it somewhat early.Īuthor UncutIsSuperior Time 2 9:51 PM Post link The 1990 version is fine for that purpose, even if it is still censored Really, all I would like is an HD copy of the film that hasn’t been DNRd to heck and back and without crappy Deems Taylor overdubs. If the seller had been aware of the many different versions of the movie, he would have pointed out in the listing which version he’s selling.Īuthor Strevlac Time 1 12:07 AM (Edited) Post linkįantasia got a huge theatrical rerelease in 1990, I would think some of those prints would be in “circulation.” _ Author Moiisty Time 1 8:36 AM Post linkĪctual 1940 version according to the seller but only 2 reelsĭoes the seller actually claim it’s a 1940 print? To me it looks like “1940” refers to the original theatrical release of Fantasia.

_ Author Moiisty Time 1 8:16 AM Post link How about an upscaled version of the restored 1990 LD/VHS release? I still have the LD but no longer have anything to play it on.Īuthor RU.08 Time 1 1:25 AM (Edited) Post link _ Author Strevlac Time 11:27 PM Post link It’d be very hard to find a print of that version in private hands, and it would be nitrate. Does such a thing exist in reasonable quality and if so could anyone PM me with a link as where to obtain it? I am looking for a scan of the original 1940 general release version of Fantasia (NOT the “restored” reconstructed censored roadshow version with contemporary overdubs that is available on bluray).
