Cool. I remember hearing about The Treasure of Matecumbe when I was young, but never actually saw it. Rascal stars Billy Mumy (of Lost in Space and Twilight Zone fame). The Living Desert was, I believe, an award-winning True-Life-Adventure series film.

And, of course, I always like the Walt Disney intros on the "Disneyland" series.

I might have to DVR some of them.

The Great Locomotive Chase was one of the few Disney movies filmed in CinemaScope. While the Anchor Bay and Disney DVDs show the original aspect ratio, neither disc is encoded for 16:9 displays.

If there's really a new HD transfer for the movie, that will be exciting to see.

EDIT: My only thought about July's program is that they should have included either one of the Tomorrowland episodes or Walt Disney Goes to the World's Fair to tie into the new Brad Bird movie.

Based on the 3 schedules they've done up so far, I think it's a forgone conclusion they'll do one around Halloween. With that in mind, here would be my suggested list of titles to show:

8:00 - 8:30pm (Cartoon Shorts)

Trick or Treat (1953)
Lonesome Ghosts (1937)
The Skeleton Dance (1929)

Others they could do: Donald and the Gorilla, The Mad Doctor

8:30pm - 10:00pm

The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949)

10:00pm - 11:00pm

Disneyland Showtime (1970)

11:00pm - 12:30pm

Child of Glass (1977)

12:30pm - 2:30am

Blackbeard's Ghost (1968)

2:30am - 4:15am

The Black Hole (1979)

Be careful if you download the PDF version of the schedule (which is linked from the page). The PDF is incorrect in the time for Johnny Tremain. It says 9:30, but that other schedule (on the page itself) says 8:30, which of course fits the time constraints and has to be right.
