Re-watching TREASURE ISLAND

Surprisingly nuanced. Seen best as a melodrama. Entire phrases entered the English language thanks to this movie.

Oh yeah, and this one as well has huge nostalgia value for me. Although my primary memory of Treasure Island will always be the Fisher Price comic book edition with the accompanying read-along cassette tape!

The Disney movie I don't think I've seen since the 1980s! Yet another movie I'm overdue to re-watch.

But speaking of Disney, Treasure Island, and the 1980s, did you ever see Disney's Return to Treasure Island miniseries? I loved that as a kid. Not sure how it would hold up to a rewatch now though.

I didn't remember it better, actually.
