Okay. So a few years back I bought this for $15 at Costco. Was super excited. I remember first watching it rented from blockbuster. The comic relief of the Dola Gang....the spine chilling scene of the ending scene when they use the spell of distruction while musca is screaming about his eyes....BEST PART OF THE MOVIE.. Anyways, I was super excited to finally own it. Mind you, this was the Studio Ghibli and Disney Vault version with the gold trim at the top of the cover for Disney to flaunt it's lies. Let me tell you how incredibly disappointed I was when I sat down to watch it and comic relief lines were sensored out entirely. I don't know why. Maybe because it was a form of promoting violence and everyone's too sensitive these days with the nwo's agenda being pushed hard on us (and it's flippin Disney!) I don't know. It made me so disappointed that while in the middle of shit falling apart on Laputa, THEY CUT THE MUSIC OFF ENTIRELY. LITERALLY MUSCA RUNNING AROUND WITH THINGS FALLING APART SCREAMING ABOUT HIS EYES AND THERE'S NO BLOODY MUSIC PLAYING ANYMORE. And it wasnt even a smooth fade transition for the music to stop..it was just suddenly and abruptly stopped once they said the spell. Facepalm! No! That was not the movie at all. Anyways, after searching high and low for a different version, I found this one. The original looking one..I was hesitant to buy thinking maybe I was crazy and double buying something only for the same outcome. I finally ordered it. And I watched it and I'm so happy this version is how I remembered it! I was very ready to get rid of this copy, too, if the music cut out in the end but it didn't! Super thrilled!
