Originally Posted By mickhyperion I just checked my 80's era VHS release and the dialogue is the same. Cinderella actually says "Another one?" in both. The word "one" is a little hard to hear, but it's there. I listened to the VHS first and thought that was what she said. I checked the DVD afterward and, not only did it sound the same, but turning on the subtitles reveals that she is fact saying "Another one?" not "Another horse?" Hope that helps!

When we used to conjur up the ORIGINAL movie in our crystal ball, the sleeves on Cinderella's rag dress used to be a pale blue. This NEWEST version we conjured up has her sleeves more a pale green. ORDDU: Plus her ball gown kept changing colors--even when she was still in the light--from silver white to pale blue. In the past, her ball gown only turned blue when she was shown in deep shadow--like when she was out in the courtyard with the prince. ORWEN: Even the colorings of Jaq and Gus's clothing has changed slightly. We will say, though, that the changes aren't necessarily bad ones. Just different from what we're used to. ORDDU: Perhaps these subtle changes are made in the restoration process. We noticed similar changes in SNOW WHITE after it was restored.

It happened during the 'Once Upon a Dream' segment with Brian Rose dancing with her mock prince. At one point Briar Rose's voice drops in volume very dramatically--just when Prince Phillip shows up to discover her in the clearing. ORDDU: The original film had no such lowering of volume. But, apparently, the powers that had been in charge of the particular video re-release, wanted to change things to THEIR liking. The drop in volume of Briar Rose's lovely singing made 3 witches from Morva more than a little angry. ORWEN: But they restored the volume back to its former level--in the dvd release. (Thank goodness they did that.) ORDDU: And let this be a lesson for those hidden 'powers that be' to never again tamper like that with our classics!

I liked it.
Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORWEN: Oh, it sounded natural, to be sure. It's just that they didn't do it that way in the original movie. Plus, Once Upon a Dream is so beautiful to hear when Briar Rose sings it that we don't want the volume being tampered with--just to suit the tastes of a few.
