Cinderella and The Jungle Book are coming to Turner stations (http://deadline.com/2014/10/disney-cinderella-the-jungle-book-head-turner-networks-licensing-rights-855687) in the next few years.
Classic Disney movies on CN? :zonk: :joy:
Well this is only for the live-action movies Disney is doing so far. Whether or not Turner will get any of Disney's classics remains to be seen.
Although TCM did use to air a decent selection of their older live-action movies, and they've shown some of the studio's movies, animated or not, at their annual Film Festival as well.
The Three Caballeros and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad are coming to TCM (http://www.cartoonbrew.com/disney/disney-will-air-its-classic-cartoons-on-time-warners-tcm-106279.html) on December 21.
Also, a bunch of classic Disney shorts.
Actually, those movies aren't airing yet. They're only mentioned as airing in the future.
I posted the schedule for the 21st elsewhere, and it's this
8pm: Santa's Workshop (1932)/On Ice (1935)/Chip an' Dale (1947)
8:30pm: The Disneyland Story (1954)/The Reluctant Dragon (1941)
11:00pm: Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier (1955)
12:45am: The Vanishing Prairie (1954)
2am: Third Man on the Mountain (1959)
4am: Perilous Assignment (1959)
Not too much animation, which is why I went to the Live-Action Disney thread.
The next showing will be on March 15th, and will contain the following
Darby O'Gill and the Little People
How I Captured the King of the Leprechauns
Babes in the Wood
The Story of the Animated Drawing
The Three Caballeros
Walt and El Grupo
The Fighting Prince of Donegal
Great! Of course, I'll write a blog post accordingly when the time comes.
I wrote another prep list for this Sunday's Treausres from the Disney Vault selection. (http://avaitorsblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-crash-course-to-treasures-in-disney.html) I can't wait!
