For O&C fans, a spot of good news:

At 16:34 into the Dave Lee Down Under video I just posted, you can make out the O&C DVD/Blu-ray cover between those for Peter Pan and Star Wars: The Force Awakens (under Free Solo and above Avengers: Infinity War).

I didn't know that was why Netflix removes content sometimes. Thanks for the info.

oh that's good to know! I guess they didn't have space for all the titles in the other image.

the bold text code never seems to work for me

Oh well, another win for DVD/Blu-ray then!

Oh, hell no! What's next? Are they going to remove the Siamese cats from Lady and the Tramp and the Natives from Peter Pan? If everything that's considered offensive were to be removed most of classics would end up butchered. I hope they don't pull this crap with any subsequent home video releases.

The last thing Dumbo needs is to be even shorter in length.

I hope so too. It seems my worst nightmares are coming true.


It's a shame Song of the South won't being included, though as you said it's not a surprise, but removing the Jim Crow scene from Dumbo is crazy. It's a key moment in the film, if they remove it, the rest of the movie after it won't make sense. Not to mention it includes one of Disney's most famous songs.

So... what's going to happen? Does this mean it's going to go straight from The Pink Elephants to the part where he shows everyone he can fly without any explanation on he got that feather? In fact, let's just say one of those over protective parents was showing this version to their kids and something like this came up:

Kid: "Mommy? How did he get that black feather?"
Parent: "Uhhhhhh....well, honey...."

Seriously, they cut out this scene, they cut out one of the most pivotal parts of the film.

The Dumbo news seems dubious to me.

Oh wow, if that's really true, then I'm shocked. To think that some people thought Disney might bring back Song of the South in this service or even add Sunflower back to Fantasia. This is just another reason why physical media is so important because in a few generations from now, films like The Little Mermaid or Pocahontas might be similarly censored for "objectionable" material. So glad I've got my Blu-Ray for Dumbo and never bothered with a digital copy.

Honestly, if Disney had to pick a film from their animated catalog to censor, I'd have gone with Peter Pan and the Red Indian scene first. That song is as useless as Fixer-Upper from Frozen.

I hope it's fake news.

I'm not sure I buy the crows thing.
I was in the Disney Store today in the mall and they played "When I see an Elephant Fly" on the screen in the store alongside a bunch of the Dumbo featurettes for the live action movie.

The "news" about Dumbo sounds similar to the same "news" about "Be Prepared" being cut from The Lion King re-make or the talk about "Kiss the Girl" possibly being cut from TLM remake. There's a thirst among fake news sites to stir people up into a hysteria over things that will never happen, to incite a fear of progress. I'll be very surprised if this has any truth to it.

I agree with those of you who feel the Dumbo news is dubious.

Don't panic guys. I feel Disney would have gotten rid of the Jim Crow scene long ago had that been their intention. Such a move would cripple the film.

In the worst possible scenario, if this does happen it means our blu-ray copies will be worth millions!

Still not buying it. What somebody "heard" could still be just unsubstantiated rumor.

Okay, now I’m getting worried.

The article is merely reporting on what the initial report says. It is not independent.

Except it’s popping up on more places like comicbook.com

I don't consider comicbook.com to be a reputable news website. The trades like The Hollywood Reporter, Deadline and Variety are more reliable, as they get their information directly from the studios and interview multiple sources.

I think there are too many clickbait news blogs and "scoopers" out there that seem to constantly report false information, just for easy clicks and to get a rise out of people. If something is fishy about the original source reporting the story, don't immediately believe it.
