I wonder how audiences reacted in 1941 to "Bambi" when it was shown in front of an audience on a large screen in a movie theater? I can only imagine that younger kids were just as emotionally involved with the characters regardless of the pacing (i.e., even older kids, if you recall Robert Stack's performance in the movie "1941" - Note: I forget, was that "Bambi" or "Dumbo"?).
We should continue this discussion after this comes out on DVD (i.e., I'm assuming that you'll be buying this one) and you and your daughter have the opportunity to watch them back to back; that shouild be quite interesting.

I ain't DVD, yet. - tinear 11:44:21 06/17/03 (2)
I'm waiting for the dusk to settle with formats and multi-players' prices to come down; and for Hi-Def to be more widespread. Still going along with VHS and my old Sony 27-"er.
- No DVD at all? Well, the wife & I may have gone the "overkill" route, but we love DVD! - Audiophilander 16:14:59 06/17/03 (1)
  We decided that the dust wasn't going to settle soon enough and now we own 4 progressive scan DVD players (Panasonic, SONY, JVC & Akai), two of which, the JVC & Akai units, were purchased because they perform PAL/NTSC conversion and the Panasonic because it also has DVD-A. LOL! Well, perhaps it is overkill and a bit nuts to own four DVD players, but after all, this is the "Asylum" isn't it? :o) FTR, as "committed" as we are, we'll probably auction off the SONY on eBay, eventually. Originally we bought as a back-up player, but we don't use it that often. As for High-Def, well, it's already here, bud! Nearly all of the Prime time shows are in HD, some of the movie channels too, and the sporting events are killer, that is, if you like sports.
  Cheers,

    thinks you are! 4!!!
    I very much enjoy watching the end of sporting events, i.e. NBA finals, last rounds of US Open, finals of Wimbledon, etc.
    Do you know if ESPN has HD or is it just the big (old) three?
    BTW, I do have an Accuphase which I understand will decode DVD...so I won't have to buy a very expensive player, just something to act as a transport.
    Now, as soon as plasma comes down a bit...(is it considered the equal of conventional tubes, now?).
