Treasures: MICKEY MOUSE IN LIVING COLOR VOL. 2 Discussion

[Ludwig Von Drake]

Also is there any reason for Pluto cartoons in the MMLC II DVD. Could there not be enough room on a seperate Pluto DVD?

[Mayhem]

I think, as somebody touched on earlier, they are going by the character picture on the opening sequence. Those ones in question still had a Mouse face to open with. Still didn't explain why Squatter's Rights wasn't on the volume, but perhaps that one had a Pluto opening instead. It's been so long since I've seen it, I can't remember.

Russi Taylor said that, at the time they, they didn't know Minnie could talk ( ), so that's why she is silent during "Mickey's Christmas Carol".

Well, a few low points in the Mickey set:
-I thought "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" would look exactly as it does on the "Fantasia" DVD, but they made a new transfer and the source material is not in very good condition - almost VHS quality. "Mickey And The Beanstalk" looks exactly like it does on the "Fun and Fancy Free" DVD, though.
-The "Mouse Mania" short is incomplete. According to a friend of mine, the short started in the man's house, before the scene of the psychologist. He says a minute or two of the short are missing from the DVD.
-The end credits of "The Prince of the Pauper" are incomplete. The original version was longer and had more music.
-The audio of "Runaway Brain" is slightly out-of-syn.

Plutopia started with just a picture of Pluto.

This DVD was awesome I really enjoyed seeing these old classic shorts.
I remember on television that they showed these shorts but later took them off television.
I'm glad to have this collection.

Plutopia is counted as both a Mickey and a Pluto cartoon, so we will propably have that cartoon on next years Pluto Treasure as well.

And "Donald and Pluto" started with a picture of Mickey Mouse, so it's all over the shop

As said, I'm guessing Pluto's set will have Squatter's Rights, along with the Figaro cartoons. Plus Butch and Dinah. And other such creatures that were pitted against him. And plenty of them there were. Though we saw Milton in Plutopia already, look forward to his other short "Cold Turkey".
