They lost the original so they can't scale it to look good with the rest of the movie. The love is gone is only on the original vhs. It has nothing to do with shielding kids.

Just don't watch the Disney+ version, they cut out, "when the love is gone" song. Which I would argue is a pivotal moment for Scrooge's past. It's asinine to think that you have to shield kids from a sad scene in a movie. Life is tragic and these kids will learn sooner or later when reality hits them like a brick. It's essentially removing the universal humanity from a story which is what people really connect to. /rant

"lost"

So I had seen the theatrical version a couple years ago. Evidently they remedied this last year by adding the full version as an option.

So maybe I just woke up today and wanted to b*tch about something and miss my childhood.

We always fast forwarded though that part when we watched on the VCR. But it should be in the movie since it makes a lot more sense when they bring the song back at the end of the movie.

They should cut her completely. Business was down, and that ***** wanted to have a wedding?

This came across my feed this morning. Really good read and it touches on the missing musical number.
