Jodi Benson recording Part of Your World footage?

[mikemgmve]

I was floored to see Jodi recording one of my all-time favorite Disney songs in the featurette on the new DVD, but I was sad that they just didn't include the whole thing. They talk about her emotion and how she really felt it, but yet, they didn't show us all but 10 seconds of it.

Does anyone know if it exists anywhere on the net? I checked youtube on the offchange.. but nada

[disneystarsfan]

does anyone remember when they showed jodi singing part of your world on a beach after the end credits of the limited issue? i was surprised they didn't include that on the platinum edition.

Those are two of my big complaints about the extra features. Another is that they showed 2 seconds of a McDonald's commercial that should have been showed in its entirety. But, my biggest complaint was that there was not A BIG of the live-action reference footage of Sherri Stoner acting out scenes for Ariel! I had such a crush on her after seeing that footage as a kid during a behind the scenes special! I wanted that special, but would have been satisfied with the footage! Crushes aside, I find live-action reference material VERY interesting!

I absolutely love bonus footage like that, even with commentary explaining what was going on during those segments.

I really enjoyed "Treasures Untold" featurette - but honestly it seemed like 75% of it was more about Disney studios at the time of the movie. That in itself, is also important, as it shows how the studios were launched into the Renaissance at the time, but there seems to be very little about the movie, and making of itself.

As for the footage of Jodi singing on a beach, was that on a VHS, or a DVD? I have the limited issue, but it's not there.

That's what was so sad about that Jodi video. It was only on the VHS (which I no longer have, assuming it would be on a future DVD release). I have the first DVD too, but it's just bare bones. I'm only keeping it because it has the unedited version of the film (the minister's knee, ha).

It's on the rereleased VHS from 1998 and plays during the credits.

On that VHS, Jodi is also the host of all the previews before the movie starts.

i have the vhs, but i have to wait until my sister gets back from the philippines because she took it with her.

someone should really try to capture that vhs footage for all of us.

That's what disappointed me the most, too. I would've liked to have seen the live-action footage. Beauty and the Beast got a whole gallery devoted to the press release and footage behind promoting it, and I was kind of annoyed that neither Aladdin nor The Little Mermaid got it, either.

I don't know if Beauty and the Beast got the press release gallery because it got such high accolades and spawned the Broadway musical, but The Little Mermaid could've gotten more.

is there a way to to transfer footage from a copyrighted vhs to a dvd using a dvd recorder? i would if could since i have it on the vhs version. but there's just one problem:
i don't have a dvd recorder.

[Kyle]

what you need is a capture device such as this.

[disneystarsfan]

is that available in stores?

[Kyle]

I'm not sure about this one specifically, but yes capture devices are available in stores. you get better deals online though.

OMG I am so upset with this release it is not even funny! The bonus features were really short and edit! There was nothing on Disc 2! It is just so plan IMO. I would have loved more on Disc 2.

The picture was fine though IMO. I love how they restored the movie for the DVD so that is a plus.

Well, I don't have my copy yet. But I DO remember Jodie on the beach. They should have her instead of tisdale

Thanks Amy, for posting that!

Gosh... I just adore Jodi, I love listening to her sing, and she's still got it, too. I think my favorite thing about Jodi is that you can tell she truly loves her role as Ariel, and that she loves every minute of it.

Oooh! I'm watching that again!

The footage shows up in "Waking Sleeping Beauty," but I don't remember if it shows more of it than the LM DVD does.

For the DVD, I was hoping for a Music & More section showing unused/alternate/deleted songs. Yeah, I know they had an alternate "Fathoms Below" and extended "Poor Unfortunate Souls" as deleted scenes and they put in "Silence Is Golden," but there are earlier versions of "Fathoms Below," "Under the Sea," "Part of That World," "Part of Your World" reprise, "Les Poissons," and "Happy Ending".
