The supplemental material is the best part, and I'd encourage people to settle in and listen to every single minute of the interviews that didn't make it to the final cut. In some ways they're better than the documentary itself.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN The price is worth the DVD. The extras are just fantastic. If you love everything that Walt stood for, you MUST have it. Warning though: keep your kleenex box handy!! Very weepy moments at times. Since this was made for TV, it deserves a Grammy in the documentary categoty if there is one! KUDOS way UP HIGH to Walt's grandson for bringing us this gem of a program.

But please don't take this as a plug, I just want everyone to be able to see this DVD because it really is very special and I think all Disney fans should be able to own it. Otherwise, though, PLEASE, PLEASE, I beg of you, go to the LaughingPlace Store and support this incredibly wonderful site which provides reviews like this one every single day! I've only had wonderful experiences purchasing from the LP Store and think anyone who has the money to support LP should. Just wanted to make sure everyone has the opportunity to experience this truly wonderful DVD.

Originally Posted By nic_wd_03 I want it badly! I have it on my christmas list. I love walt! I love everything he stood for and more! I would love to have him on my DVD shelf next to his masterpieces! Someone in my math class once called Walt Disney an old pervert, becasue of that stuff they say is in aladdin and the lion king! That really made me mad! first of all he had nothing to do with these movies. You would be surprised how many people think hes stil alive or frozen! anyways I want this DVD!
