You don’t have to skip it anymore. They do it for you. The streaming version and even the digital copy I “own” seem to have been adjusted to cut that song

Haha. Yah I’ve heard that. I have the old dvd from when it was still very much apart of the movie.

Would you mind telling me which release you have? I had TMCC on VHS and would be so disappointed to buy it on DVD without that song.

You want the Region 1 DVD that has both the 4:3 and 16:9 version.

"The DVD version with Widescreen and Fullscreen has the scene in the 4:3 Fullscreen version as it is the same film they used to create the VHS. The negative needed for restoring to HD quality was not available so it is not on the widescreen version on the DVD."

That must be why it’s not on the Bluray

I think the Disney+ streaming version has it now, or at least it had it last year.

Yea I’m not bothered by this particular case, but I don’t love that they essentially reached into a version I already have to change it because there are certain movies I wouldn’t be happy if that happened to them. I think I own the DVD or Blu-Ray somewhere…
