I too wish to express my passionate request about this Disney Western of Westward Ho the Wagons to have it's fair share of being released on Blu ray in it's original Widescreen aka Letterbox format and it's original running time 94 minutes longer. Please instruct me to participate to contact anyone that's willing to assist me with this Classic that way too great to go to waste. Yours Truly D.

Because Westward,Ho the wagons is originated in the 2.35aspect ratio. I spoke with a technician that's a castmember with Buena Vista ent. And he assured me that he wrote it down as a important memo to express it with the rest of staff & management. If u like please contact me @ Dextr_Cooper@Yahoo.com just make sure that you got my message.

It's a damn shame that "Westward Ho The Wagons" hasn't been released on DVD in it's original CinemaScope format, as so much of the beauty of the film is missing on the dreadful 4 x 3 pan and scan transfer, as well as the fact that the song "Wringle Wrangle", sung by Fess Parker, is missing from the pan and scan version. Disney should be ashamed of themselves for not releasing this on DVD properly. I went to see the film in 1958, when I was eleven years old and never saw it in CinemaScope again. As I'm now 64, I reckon I'll be six feet under before Disney releases it properly. After all, we post war babyboomers aren't getting any younger. Is there any way to contact Disney with a view to getting this film released properly on a wide screen DVD? <br /><br />David Rayner, Stoke-on-Trent, UK.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4947269113979870914.post-68220505075121647642010-01-25T11:57:18.704-05:002010-01-25T11:57:18.704-05:00I had never heard of this Disney movie till I read...I had never heard of this Disney movie till I read your blog Alex.
