I know I am probably in a minority here, but I'm really hyped for the Pocahontas 10th Anniversary DVD due out on Tuesday May 3, 2005. Not only will the film be sporting a brand new digital transfer that will blow the previous DVD out of the water, but finally the long unseen "If I Never Knew You" sequence will finally be restored to the movie! Finally Pocahontas and John Smith's love will be given the screen time it so rightly deserves. The scene, though short, makes all the difference in believing that Pocahontas would risk her life and socail standing for this Englishman. If that was all the set offered, I'd be more than happy enough but it will also include an entire second disc of bonus features.
Personally, I don't see Pocahontas as being anywhere near Disney's best work, but it's speaks to me on a very deep and meaningful way nontheless.
I'd like this thread to be a positive one for people to post reminicenses of their first viewing, expectations for the DVD and just generally thouhgts on the movie. Remember one of it's central themes is learning to deal with and accept others differences. Let's try to emulate that value and avoid the negativity that seems to alwys crop up when talking about Disney's Pocahontas.
