Why No Title Card?


Walt Disney Home Video has had a rather weird habit of editing the opening title cards out of feature films, and in fact they still somewhat do this to this day. Yes, this kind of ties in with their recent egregious logo plastering (basically, replacing the original logo with a more current one), but as far back as the good ol' days, you didn't get all of Disney's films in 100% complete form. I mean, yes, it's only a logo… But the absence of the logo means you're missing a tiny portion of the complete film.

The Dumbo Anomalies


Walt Disney's Dumbo was theatrically re-released four times prior to its home video debut in 1981. Its first theatrical re-release was in 1949, which was the first part of a double-bill with the 42-minute Saludos Amigos. Then Walt Disney showed an edited version of the film on the Disneyland television series in 1955, but the film was still theatrically re-released after that. One notable re-release was in 1976, as the film was on a double-bill with Australian live-action Disney production Ride a Wild Pony. (The film had been released in its home country a year earlier.)
