Sorry, that was a song from Pete's Dragon.

 

[Fantasmic23]

I bought it a few years ago as it is one of my all-time favorites. Think I'll watch it tonight!

I bought it a few months ago at Costco! $8.99 or something ... I would've paid $18.99! I love all of the Special Features, especially "The Pollyanna Collector"!

I watched that film way too many times as a kid. Annoyed people a lot.

I'm not sure how well presented they are in the parks, never been able to afford to go but I find Basil the Great Mouse Detective, Oliver and Company as well as Rescuers Down Under as not much under the limelight or discussed in general. But I was pleasantly surprised to see Bruce Broughton's awesome music from Rescuers Down Under on the Epcot Fountain of Nations fountain/light show via Youtube.

Oh, so that WAS Pete's Dragon! It was so big, that I really couldn't tell if it was Pete's Dragon or just an ordinary giant dragon.

At first I didn't care for MSEP, I REALLY love Spectro Magic... and I don't like change.... but its growing on me... just can't stand that syntho voice at the beginning!

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I miss it so much. It was just pure genius!

I put that on the list in post #1. Its not totally forgotten by Disney though, because at the Pop Century Resort, at one of the 80's buildings, they have a giant Roger Rabbit.

I snapped this last month!

I'll admit, Roger Rabbit is not a comptely forgotten film, Roger and Jessica still appear on collectable Merch like pins, and their is rumors of a sequel finally getting off the ground.

How about that! I didn't know he was part of the theme at the Pop Century, I've never stayed there. Thanks for sharing.

That's funny, my daughter said that voice at the beginning gave her nightmares. I love that intro!

Escape from Witch Mountain was one of my old favorites. Wasn't there a 2nd one originally too... Return from Witch Mountain with the original cast? The Cat from Outer Space is a new one for our list. The Fox and the Hound has got to be at least 20 years old or more.

update: Fox & Hound Release date July 10th 1981
release dates for Escape to Witch Mountain 1975
Return From Witch Mountain 1978

The Rescuers and the Rescuers down under (not so old, I think)

I just found this thread, but the Rescuers Down Under has always been my favorite Disney film (perhaps because of tradition... my father and I used to watch it together). But to all those who mentioned it, I found this picture in someone's trip report and it made me so happy!...

I had never noticed these guys before. They are on the front of the Cinderella float.

If you're a little rusty that's Bernard and Miss Bianca, the rescuers themselves! Small but not forgotten

I have never noticed that either. I think I have that movie on VHS.

For the late joiners, I've got a running list on post 1. I think I now have a good reason to join Netflix!


Hey!! Did you know that Kimberly Richards who stared as Tia the girl in both Escape To Witch Mountain, Return from Witch Mountain and No Deposit No Return, is Paris and Nicky Hilton's aunt? I just learned that. Kathy Richards, Paris's mom is Kimberly's sister. Interesting

THE APPLE DUMPLING GANG AND HERBIE.
I really like THE FOX AND THE HOUND, too.

The Three Lives of Thomasina

Used to watch that one at my aunt's house when I was little. Somewhere along the way my favorite stuffed cat was named Thomasina in honor of the film.
