You're forgetting the essential part of myth (after all, that's what these essentially are, myths). Myths have changed vastly through many years. The main strength of myth is that it is fluid and changes with each telling. Whether that change comes with ones understanding, or an actual physical change in the movie, the experience is different every time you watch the movie, therefore there is no way one can recapture the "original theatrical feeling" of the movie, and those looking to do so are on an impossible journey. I don't mean to sound harsh or anything, but it is the truth. Thus, a few minor changes (changed colours and a few redesigned characters (that only appear once in the whole movie)) are not that huge of a deal (at least in my opinion).I wouldn't mind alterations if they included the original versions too. But apart from artistic/historical reasons ("Art should not be modified" "History should not be rewitten" etc) there is also a personal reason component. Maybe someone saw it that way and grew to love it that way and now he/she/it can't get it back
In your opinion, what Disney movies really need restoring?

i think sleeping beauty needs another level of restoration to give it the cel look. and the films from the 70s definitely need a high restoration.they look too old and dull. the fox and the hound yes...and the black cauldron.
somehow..i wish pocahontas could b restored to match the colors on the screensaver and trading cards which were more vibrant,less blueish and more towards green.i dont see that happening to the 10th anniversary edition.
