Myself and the rest of the forum are going to pretend to understand this question, and I will reply with the help of Mr. 8ball...
"My sources say no." |

+1 Can't have old Rufus soft-shoeing like some old Uncle Tom........................ |

Song of the South was made after history was made. Oh, you are right. History was rewritten in the 90's. |
|
|
Funny....my folks bought me the record when I was a kid...(They are both Black)
|
|
|
I loved Brrr Rabbit and the Tar Baby. |
|
|
Now that you mention it, my kids have never seen Speedy Gonzalas.... They know Bugs & the Road Runner but Speedy is not seen on TV anymore.
|
|
30-35 years later I can remember playing the hell out of that record |

Can you speak for the quality of this product? I have a DVD that a friend burned for me a year ago that seems to be the same thing that they are selling. My DVD has the old cartoons as well as the main film. The quality of my DVD is not as good as my aunts VHS copy of the movie though. |

Somebody here tonight is watching SNL..... thats why this question was asked...
|
|

Shhh. |

I remember seeing "Song of the South" in the movie theater's.
|
|
I dunno - but I LOVED it when my dad would read me Uncle Remus. He used to live in Louisianna for a bit - but have picked up a bit of them "dats" and "ders" one needs to read uncle remus.
No, brar bear - not the briar patch! |
|
|
Mickey was great! 96Ag |
|
|
Speaking of Speedy...does anyone know where to get copies of the un-PC Bugs & friends cartoons? I've got the DVDs that were released not too long ago...but they are only the PC cartoons.

When was the last time you saw a Heckle and Jeckle cartoon? Almost ANY WWII era Bugs Bunny or Three Stooges shorts, or 40's Abbot and Costello movies?
|
|
Now that you mention it. Darn all the fun stuff is being erased from our cultural history. |
|
|
Funny thing is that when in Mexico a year ago my kids were watching Speedy and Pepe Le pew on Mexican TV. Funny as hell when you have a few two many beers and Speedy is speaking fully in Spanish |
|
|
I used to have a Uncle Remus game. Board game race to get to the briar patch.
|
|
Is that a copyright sting operation or is it good to go? Jim |

Don't forget all the Tom & Jerry's with the kindly African-American woman.
"ThomAAAAAAAAassss! OUT! Oh-Doubleyou-Tee OUT!" It's been re-dubbed. By a very clear-speaking Phylicia Rashad. The maid now sounds like a corporate attorney. |

I saw it in the theatre in 1986 or 1987. My wife and i ask tjhis of each other every now and again-heck, thunder mountain RR is Br'er Rabbit themed. Poor kids don't know where it came from.
|

I have the DVD. You can get the bootleg pretty easy on the internet. Disney still sells the dvd and tape in Asia markets. Its a different format but lots of people are recording it to our fromat and selling it for 15 to 20 bucks a pop.
Its a great movie. I grew up with it and so will my kids and their kids. |

A little Song of the South info via Snopes
You can find DVDs on Ebay all the time.(You pay your money and take your chance) I took a chance on a disk from "over there in the East" some time ago just so I'd have it. IIRC the cost was less than $ 20. Luckily the quality was quite good, the only odd thing is the subtitles (if turned on) are in Chinese. |
|
B'rer Londo, why I'se do declare he haff a copy.
Sho 'nuff. Hit's dem boot-lagg dub de dub 'un, but hits a copy fo sho. |

Disney routinely pulls certain movies from circulation to create a demand for the movie til they reissue it. remember how Disney would only re-release a movie only every few years in the pre-video era?
The other factor is that the company may see no commercial demand for that particular movie. I am sure there are many other low-performing Disney movies that are not regularly marketed. |
|
Thats the first thing I thought of too. Goddamn goat-rapers where I work blast that shit all the time. |
|
|
Yep, I saw it with my folks when I was a kid. My Mom wanted me to see it because it was a classic. ( I liked it too ) IIRC the controversy was Uncle Remus was a slave and was portrayed as being a very happy cheerful slave. (That might tend to piss a lot of people off.) Disney has made a business decision not to release the film to avoid the inevitable boycotts and having to pay off Rainbow -Push types. |
|
|
That was (apparently) the first movie my Mom took me to when I was toddler.
|
|
Read Uncle Remus stories to my kids all the time. Until this thread, I had forgotten all about Song of the South! Shame on me!!! I remember my parents taking me to see it, and now I just gots ta haff me a copy of it sho 'nuff!
|
|
I saw it in 81... reckon I was about 11. All of these PC people kill me.
Buggs, Speedy, Peppy, Heckle and Jeckle, Abbott & Costello... It's just a shame. I bought a 4 Best of Abbott & Costello sets cause you never see them on TV anymore. Just a shame. David |
