I believe that even though I haven't watched it. It's just sad studios like Sony don't licence these docs out.
It's both a blessing and a curse for a fan documentary to picked up by the franchise's studio. They tend to want things to be light, breezy, and short, and therefore, you lose a lot of the more in depth, dramatic, interesting material.

Yeah I know but you saw how Disney treated the film on it's recent anniversary. A screening and a barebones blu-ray release and that was for celebrating 20 years!
Disney was once good for producing great special features for their greatest animated classics and some of their live action films, but even then, they'd cheap on many of their other films (including their package films, The Rescuers, Robin Hood, and The Great Mouse Detective). But now, I'm starting to doubt their effort in their most beloved films, since most of the new special features of their Walt Disney Signature Collection are Sing Alongs and things like "How to Make Meatballs," while classic, interesting bonus features are being thrown to the "Digital Only" bin.

They need to start focusing on providing docs for movies that never got anything on DVD like The Black Cauldron. Now THAT would be a behind the scenes doc worth watching.

Better yet, I want the deleted footage restored. Although, I'm not sure how possible that is for The Black Cauldron. I'd like Universal to do the same with The Land Before Time, which also had post-animation footage cut from the film.

Yeah I believe you'll find a lot of people who want The Black Cauldron restored. I think Disney should also just throw their hands up and release Song of the South on blu-ray. I never understood the reason for banning the film from DVD and blu-ray. Remus is a friendly black main character in the film. How is Remus not a positive role model??? It's of it's time but that doesn't mean the characters do not have value. Generosity and kindness are never outdated.
