20,000 Leagues, will he be buried at sea was my question?

I'll give him an A+ for variety, but I would never, ever consider
The Jazz Singer (1980) to be on a best list of any sort.

The Narrow Margin is a GREAT film!

She of the snooty film snobs

If you have the 20,000 leagues DVD, there's an interesting interview with him in the bonus features section. The dvd also shows how much impact Harper Goff had on the film, and the development of Disneyland.

Hmmmm, I really should start watching ALL of the extras on the DVDs I have. I mean, I buy them for that purpose, don't I?

And, welcome to LoT, Mr. Dread.
