Treasure Island (1973)
Blast from the past

Just saw this after almost two decades. Had an old copy on VHS that I used to watch regularly as a kid, and this brought back tons of memories.
Not as great as I remember but few movies live upto childhood expectations. Certain things I picked up now were all the clear digs at being utterly British.
Also amazed at how sanitized and goody-goody modern-day animated flicks have become. My 4 year old son would be might confused at mice getting drunk from Rum or pirates dying from multiple stab wounds, etc
Couldn't help thinking that Yoda was inspired by the portrayal of Ben Gunn in this movie -- short, speaks backwards, bit nuts...you get the picture!
