If you have access to a Laserdisc player, there is a disc that was released in Japan. It will play in English and only subtitles the songs. Otherwise, it is available on the PAL format in the UK. I got mine off of eBay, of course.
I read somewhere that "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" was Disney's most recognized or famous song. I don't know if that is still the case, but it's funny that the movie it came from can't be found in the country it was made in.
Even though the movie itself is not PC, the stories about Brer Rabbit and company are wonderful.
So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

Well imponderabublers, I gotta go home. Feel a bit like a little kid fighting his sleep. So much left to do today. Catch y'all tomorrow.

Tristan...How come the name reverted back to an old thread??? I'm seeing "Male and Female Imponderables--The course of true love never did run smooth" on the front page...

There's a ride in both Disneyland and Disney World (and possibly in France and Tokyo as well, honestly don't know) based entirely on the Brer Rabbit stories, complete with quite a bit of "Zippidy Doo Dah" being sung. It's called Splash Mountain, one of the more popular rides in my experience. It is a bit odd that you can't get Song of the South anymore, but the song and the stories seem to be living on in a new form.
Btw, where did you get the Tom and Jerry episodes? Hubby is a huge fan of the old (non PC) T&Js.

I see the Birnam wood title....I had a bit of a problem with it earlier, but it seems ok now.

MisterG, I will pay rent and my part of the utilities if y'all will let me move in with you and eat your wife's cooking. I'll even bring some Top O' The River catfish with me.

He's my husband.

CK, I got most of my discs off of eBay. The Tom and Jerry ones are unedited (in other words, sometimes the ladies legs are brown and she talks with an exaggerated dialect). Set one is on eBay more often than set two, and I have only seen Set three out there when I bought it.
When Ted Turner bought the rights to the cartoons, they went through them and recolored the legs Caucasian and dubbed over the dialogue. Of course, this is the same group of people who won't show "Speedy Gonzales" cartoons, either.

Ms G is going to have a baby? 
I can't think of anyone who would make a better mommy!
More smart people should have babies. And good mommies should also have babies. Like NVG said, it gives me hope 
Um, what about this Song of the South? I know Uncle Remus, I know the song, but I can't say I've seen anything about "Song of the South"...
Oh wait; it bothered people because of the portrayal of slavery not being so bad, right? Or something.
Yes, I've always known the song, never knew what it was from. And I have a book of Uncle Remus stories and I've seen animated versions of them somewhere or other.
