I just got the SO DEAR TO MY HEART R2 PAL DVD and it is great! I put off getting it because I was waiting for the US release, but the R2 DVD has a beautiful image and 5.1 DD sound - and 25 minutes of outtakes! I made an NTSC version on DVD by demuxing the DVD, decoding the MPEG stream, and then re-encoding into NTSC - far better results that using a crappy stand-alone DVD Recorder
ANYWAY - I wonder if the US release never happened because maybe SO DEAR and SONG OF THE SOUTH will be released together in a Treasures set or something. They would make for a natural double feature, and they could bump up the price for including an extra film on another DVD - one that isn't as widely known as SOTS.
Can anyone buy me the Mexican dual region (R1/R4) version and mail it to me for...$15 + shipping? (I know this should be in the Trade section but still...)
I'm guessing the US release never happened because of SOTS. They probably figured that the public would figure "Hey, they released the sister movie! Maybe SOTS is next!", so they decided instead to not release it at all in the US which sucks cause I wanna see it.
