Another classic that isn't available in the US, at least not legally, is "Song of the South".  Disney released it overseas but not in the US on DVD.

I read an article just the other day about the black guy that starred in The Song of the South.....he died at a very early age....forty something....and he actually sang Zippity-do-dah-zippity-a.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I loved that movie.  Had no clue you couldn't find it.  Guess I have been living under a rock.  I have all the Uncle Remus books, and Little Black Sambo too.  I figgered my SIL wouldn't like me giving those to my niece and nephew.  Call it a hunch.
R.I.P. LC and Crockspot.  Miss you guys.

You can buy Song of the South outside of America. However, the DVD will not work in American DVD player though. I have not seen it myself, but I have read it is good.

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

This was clearly rigged.

This should be top five at least.

Got that right... (see snubbed)
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

- Ayn Rand

You ar e welcome. Have you seen the one clip from the movie "Love ,Honour and Obey" where Sean Pertwee sing the theme song?

[youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xZAul3PfLs[/youtube]


Its not as much fun though as watching the opening credits where a few Sci Fi stars are singing the song "Avenues and Alleyways" One is even famous for being an intergalactic bounty hunter from some movie franchise.
