LonesomePolecat Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Did anyone else enjoy those treasures from the Disney vault last night? Those just made my day! How have I never seen THIRD MAN ON THE MOUNTAIN? What incredible photography AND mountaineering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SansFin Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The treasures for me were: The Reluctant Dragon (1941), the clip of Mickey Mouse as: The Sorcerer's Apprentice, and the Chip'n'Dale animation. It is easy to draw me in with innocence with mischievous bent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredCDobbs Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The shadows and lighting effects in THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE were amazing and very realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonesomePolecat Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 I also especially loved the ghost hunter cartoon with Mickey, Goofy, and Donald-- one of my childhood favorites! "I'm brave! ... but I'm careful!" Twas crazy for me to see what Disneyland was supposed to look like. I've been there so many times it trips me out to see, for example, the Penny Arcade on the wrong side of Main Street, or how small the park used to be (4 lands?!), or all those orange trees that used to be there.

Janet0312 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I didn't get home til a quarter to ten, but I did enjoy The Reluctant Dragon and did not know that Fess Parker got the role of Dan'l Boone right after his part in Them! Good stuff, TCM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMadness Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 It was very nice to see these, Davy Crockett at the Alamo was interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dargo Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 --one of my childhood favorites! "I'm brave! ... but I'm careful!" Hmmmmmm...sounds a lot like some lyrics Alanis Morrisette once wrote. I wonder perhaps if just like John Lennon, who was inspired by some lines in Disney's "Snow White" to write "Do You Want To Know A Secret", if Morrisette might have seen this other Disney piece and been likewise inspired?

lavenderblue19 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I was so looking forward to Chip'an Dale. They were my favorites as a child. I even had the little Golden books of Chip'an Dale. Someone called during the airing last night, I had to take the call and missed it. I really hope TCM shows this Disney presentation again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well lavender, as I've said before, I always preferred the fellas at Warner Brothers' Termite Terrace's "gay" version of Chip and Dale...Mac and Tosh, when it comes to a pair of funny little rodents! (...and probably 'cause THEY never seemed to lose their temper like those little Disney chipmunks often seemed to!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dargo Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Yep! As I recall from my history classes, Daniel Boone didn't kill HIS first "bar" until around the age of 7. (...not quite the prodigy that Crockett was, I guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeem Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Yes. I meant Davy Crockett. That's what working the graveyard shift will do to ya. It's easily explained. It was a genius move for Fess Parker to go from Davy Crockett to Daniel Boone and continue wearing coonskin caps on television. NBC's "Daniel Boone" aired for six seasons -- most of them in glorious color -- and remains a television staple thanks to MeTV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't forget James Mac Arthur's first movie assignment at Disney, THE LIGHT IN THE FOREST. That one would be a premiere showing on TCM.
