Where did you purchase it from?
Could you post the UPC code?
Any chance something on my trade list interests you for it?

A few things:
1) Song of the South is NOT available through the Disney Club or anywhere else (legally). I wish it was.
2) There is no legal R1 Widescreen release of Rocketman (US or Canada). There is a widescreen European dvd (released in the UK, Germany, and I believe Australia). It is 1.85:1 Anamorphic Widescreen, DD 5.1 (English, German, Italian); Subtitles: English, German & Italian.
The Disney Club version is FULLSCREEN and is the ONLY Region 1 release.
3) I don't mind helping out those that are looking for copies of Rocketman from the Disney Club. I did however just order 2 of them for others online as a favor. I'm not sure if Disney will limit how many someone can purchase. So, if you are interested in one, the price is 19.99 ($23.90 with shipping). Then an additional $2.50 for me to ship it to you. I may help 1 or two others out, but I don't want to throw up a red flag with the Disney Club by ordering too many.

The Wonderful World Of Disney: The Bluegrass Special
The Wonderful World of Disney: Yellowstone Cubs

DuckTales The Movie: Treasure Of The Lost Lamp

The Rocketeer DVD I have was in a used DVD's for sale bin but I don't remember which of the major rental chains I got it from??? It's Canadian because the languages are in English and French only. It's in its original theatrical aspect ratio (2.35.1) and there is a number "1" in a small square which I assume means Region 1.

That explains it...we are not talking about the Rocketeer, we are talking about Rocketman.

Ducktales The Movie is Disney Movie Club exclusive too. I've been waiting for it to go main stream, but it hasn't. I might be joining just to get that.
How exactly does it work? Does it work like Columbia House?

I think I will be doing that next month when I have some more money.
