Now in 50fps! As I said in the original upload of this back in July 2013, "IT KEEPS HAPPENING. (The uploads, I mean)". Indeed, past-me. Indeed...
...oh yeah and for those in the back and just plain didn't know, yes, this IS the 1996 adaptation directed by Henry Selick. It was released in most of the world by Disney (and Disney still gets an in-writing credit at the start as you can see) but because one of the production companies behind it were owned by Pathe (who essentially owned Guild at the time and were in the process of winding it down), Guild were the ones to release it over here. There's barely been any new re-release of this film in the UK since an early DVD release in the early-2000's from Pathe, so the film might as well be in copyright limbo here somehow. But here, there we go, there's that confusion covered. xD

This is ridiculous and certainly not the way this stuff should be preserved given the Very, Very Obvious but...as soon as I plugged my TiVo box into my VCR to see how itd look, I got a temptation I couldnt stop myself from doing. So this is absolutely going to mess with people if this is still up online in a decade or so buuuuut, yep! First VHS recording of broadcast TV I or anyone in my family has done in 19 years. My god, what have I done? WHY have I done?
As much as this IS indeed an experiment, figured itd be a kick to someone other than myself if I uploaded how this turned out anyway...heck, this may not be the only upload like this but dont feel like its going to be a significant habit, as again...an advertisement on how to preserve stuff from this media era this is *not*... xD
