Celebrate 100 years of storytelling. Buy the Disney Legacy Animated Film Collection featuring 100 curated animated movies on Blu-ray from Disney and Pixar. …
I already own every cel animated Walt Disney Animation Studios feature on 4K or Blu-ray. It’s a lot fewer than 100 and cost a lot less than $1,500. I can live without the CGI films.
I’m glad Disney hasn’t given up on physical media entirely, but I’d like to see more 4K remasters over gilded sets of 15-year-old releases.
Would be nice if they had included Song of the South with all the appropriate cultural sensitivity warnings.
People forget that was the source of the classic song Zip A Dee Doo Dah.
I think it’s time to move on. People have been complaining about this for 20 years. It’s not happening, and if you want to watch it it’s available right now on the Internet Archive.
There are over 40 Disney animated movies that already have Blu-ray releases that I’d rather have on 4K before Song of the South on Blu-ray. Setting aside the question of race (which for this movie is a more nuanced topic than a simple warning allows for), I think it’s just a rather dull movie.
I see both sides. Haven’t seen the movie but it’s not so good that we’re exactly missing an artistic masterpiece here. But I don’t like the idea of art being hidden due to political correctness either.
But it being on Internet Archive is a good middle ground; if you want it, watch it there. Although if one would want a remaster of it I’d understand.
Also, the set doesn’t include Pete’s Dragon, Mary Poppins, Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang… other mixed live action animation Disney films.
I encourage you to go watch it.

Will only cost $10,000
It’s actually $1500 which is still too much
All joking aside, if you’re into Disneyana it’s actually not bad. Yes, the immediate outlay seems much (I personally don’t have $1500 to blow on this collection) but it’s $15 a movie (slightly less than a regular Disney Blu-Ray or around the price of one movie ticket), plus for the collectors there’s all that pretty packaging. I’ve seen
people waste their moneycollectors spending their money on worse things.An aside: where’s the official written movie list? Please don’t say “watch the linked
commercialvideo”, please.The video didn’t even include the list which is a crime. I found it in another article where I also found the price. The movie list is solid. I own very few Disney movies on disc but with Disney+ this isn’t all that attractive to me outside the collector value. They’ll be another better physical format at some point that I can’t justify the purchase especially not at that price.

You’re as bad as they are! 😁 Don’t be stingy, what’s the list link? Please?
Ta!
Yeah, but it comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. That alone makes it worth the price.
As long as I get the original, VHS clamshell boxes, I’m happy!
Billed annually.
That’s an upgrade from monthly!
