Four words:  Song Of The South



OK, notwithstanding things that will never come to DVD (and those that 
might as well be in that category, such as Let It Be), note that there is 
as much attention being paid to second-gen DVDs (Casablanca, the LotR and 
Kubrick films, Animal House, Amadeus, Cuckoo's Nest, West Side Story, 
etc.) as to filling in holes (everything from more recent stuff like 
Schindler's List and Scorcese's After Hours to the Marx Brothers and 
nearly the entire RKO catalog).  Of course there are some DVDs that NEED 
second gen releases because they're only P&S (such as Purple Rain).

And of course Eps 4/5/6 will NOT be the original theatrical versions.
