I would love to see the Monkey's Uncle finally released, it's my favorite of the Merlin Jones movies.  I figured it would be on the way w/the first release, but nothing so far.  I would even double-dip and buy a two-pack combined w/the prequel the Misadventures of Merlin Jones.

Same here. I'd like to see all those released, of course, but Monkey's Uncle more than any. I also have fond memories of Superdad. The other two are among the Disney movies I haven't seen yet. But, I don't see how anyone here can answer the question of "will they be released anytime soon."chadhobbick wrote:I would love to see the Monkey's Uncle finally released, it's my favorite of the Merlin Jones movies.

Of course they won't.  Except for new theatrical releases the only thing Di$ney releases now are Baby Einstein & Hannah Montana.  If you aren't a toddler or a tween you DON'T COUNT!  :

So Dear to My Heart
Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow
The Incredible Journey

Sammy, the Way-Out Seal
Charley and the Angel
Superdad
Kidnapped
The Light in the Forest
The Sword and the Rose
Child of Glass
- - and of course,
Song of the South

Without hijacking the thread, I just wanted everyone to know that "Light in the Forest", is a wonderful movie.  If you know of a video store that still rents VHS, give it a try.  Fess Parker, James McArthur.  It's a high quality movie with the high production levels that Disney had in the late 50''s/early 60's.

Echo my vote for these movies, too!!
I bought "Westward Ho, the Wagons" on VHS, but haven't seen the whole thing yet. It stars Fess Parker, various of the Mouseketeers, and Sebastian Cabot.
I don't understand why the movies -- catalog titles in general -- have ceased to be released....
A week or so ago, I called The Disney Co. (Burbank) to see if anyone had any idea when a new batch of Disney cartoons would be released on iTunes. The person I spoke to (I don't know what department the switchboard connected me to.) said she'd try to find someone who might know the answer to such a question, but she also pointed out the Treasure DVDs to me, plus the smaller mainstream DVDs of the Fab Five. She said a duty of hers was to keep her boss' Disney DVD collection up-to-date.
I thanked her and told her I already had the Treasures, and was glad they were available. Then I also mentioned it would sure be nice to speak with someone about titles that hadn't been released yet.
She wondered what ones I was talking about, so I only mentioned "So Dear to My Heart," and "Song of the South."
She said that SOTS would NEVER be released, and she was pretty sure SDTMH wouldn't be either -- although she didn't even know what that movie was.
I have to say, there is NOTHING racist about SDTMH! And, is NOT a sequal to SOTS. Whoever says it is a sequel has never seen it. And how could it racist? Surely this Disney staffer was just unclear about it, since she didn't know what the movie was.
I mean, what, do people connote the black ram, Jeremiah, as representing African-Americans?

Surely this Disney staffer was just unsure about any embargo, since she didn't know what the movie was.
