Eh, as enigmawing points out, there's really only so much you can do when one of your characters is tied to a pole. Yeah, it's a little uncreative, but I've never heard a better suggestion. And no, I don't want to see a spinning shot of two people at a stake for three minutes.
"Ta ta ta taaaa! Look at me... I'm a snowman! I'm gonna go stand on someone's lawn if I don't get something to do around here pretty soon!"

According to a trivia book I read about Disney films once (I don't remember its name, but it was written by David Koenig), Disney had some real worries about the sequence. They added the flashbacks because they thought the scene would be boring to the kids. Which was the reason they cut it out in the first place.DancingCrab wrote:Actually, the flashback footage did bother me a little at first, but I'm forgiving of it, seeing as the song was added back into the film for dvd. I would actually prefer some fresh animation of them singing in the tent throughout the whole thing, as it seem a little silly to be having a flashback to what feels like the day before.
But still, the song is one of my favorites and really catapults the drama WAY above where it was in the theatrical edition. I still think it was one of the stupidest editing decisions ever done for any movie, taking the song out.

Pocahontas
Video: 5/5
Audio: 5/5
Extras: 3,5/5
Pocahontas's transfer is spotless. Compared to the HDTV-rip that's been floating around, this release has been "colour-corrected", but don't expect tremendous differences. The extras are ok, a lot has been ported over but there was no audio commentary for example.
Comparison
Gold Collection DVD ------ HDTV Rip ---------- Blu-ray

pocahontas 2 movie collection is now available in Malaysia. in a commendable move it puts the sequel title much much smaller below the original movie on the cover. the bonus contains everything including the virtual vault. everything seems great tho due to the 'color correction' some scenes look oversaturated and less contrasty while several problematic scenes such as the blue nights have been fixed. IINKY is still a separate bonus. the menu is loverly
do you still wait for me Dream Giver?
you have a virtual vault???? which extras are includedakhenaten wrote:pocahontas 2 movie collection is now available in Malaysia. in a commendable move it puts the sequel title much much smaller below the original movie on the cover. the bonus contains everything including the virtual vault. everything seems great tho due to the 'color correction' some scenes look oversaturated and less contrasty while several problematic scenes such as the blue nights have been fixed.

the audio commentary
drawing inspiration: the lost story of hiawatha
"if i never knew you" deleted song

you don't know what you're talking about, the BD looks phenomenal!!Kyle wrote:Lame. Im sick of them doing this crap to their movies. Their completely flattening the picture when they remove the contrast like that. It looks so muted now. Nothing pops anymore.
