Re: song of the south
It was one of my fav's too...but that was YEARS ago, and I saw it thru a child's eyes...I've read numerous articles that it will never be released here...
You're from Del Mar? I was raised in La Jolla...and spent many-a-day at Del Mar and Solana Beaches! I was just out there in May, and ate and drank WAY to much at Fish Market. (Sorry for the aside...that has nothing to do with Disney.)

Re: song of the south
my heart is in del mar ...the track so I know of the fish market very well....good stuff ..I live due east of del mar with out getting specific....if you want do a search for song of the south and I believe you will be surprised at what you find ...I watched it recently and still cannot get my arms around why disney is sensitive to its release....maybe I am wrong but if you can release it in UK and I have heard canada...then ??????....maybe the same reason dixie landings was changed to POR...

Re: song of the south
I bought the DVD on ebay and watched it. I agree....I don't understand the sensitivity issue. I know Disney is probably going out of their way to not offend anyone. They have to fight negative publicity from so many fronts that they don't want to knowingly give any ammunition. I just enjoyed the movie as a very clean, pure family musical.

Re: song of the south
One of our favorite songs to sing on long family car trips was "Zippidee Doo Dah"...I think I can still come up with all the words...
Our communal sense of political correct-ness is a bit imbalanced.

Re: song of the south
yep it was released in the UK in the '80s or early 90s.
my kids love it, i love it  history is history! the thing we should do is move on and not hide it. for the most part I can not recall anything to disgustingly evil in the film (but I'm white and may of missed somethings that would deeply offend people) but if Disney are ashamed of it why do they have splash mountain ride?
