    I bought this because I remember seeing some of these films in school when I was little, and I wanted to show them to my child. However, I was disappointed by the terrible color in the Johnny Appleseed film. Compare it to the limited clip on YouTube and you'll see what I mean. The tree leaves are blue. It's missing a lot of yellow hues, so it comes off as blue and cold -- just missing something. It might be the same with some of the other films, but after that disappointment, I didn't care enough to check. Also, they edited out part of the introduction from the original film, and you know, if you like the original Disney films like I do, you want them to give you all of it.
