Its Intermission time folks! From cinema to home cinema

[Dolby CP-200]

Over the years I’ve noticed the intermission fading away from cinemas but has been reintroduced back into the home cinema with laserdisc followed by DVD which keeps the nostalgia of it all alive here in the home cinema.

Over the years I’ve slowly picked up a few likable classics with intermission re-introduced back into the films program for nostalgic reasons I guess.

Films on laserdisc and region 2 DVD with intermissions.

The King and I region 2 DVD
Ben-Her region 2 DVD
The Sound of Music region 2 DVD
South Pacific region 2 DVD
Doctor Zhivago region 2 DVD
Ice Station Zebra region 2 DVD
West Side Story laserdisc, region 2 DVD
Spartacus region 2 DVD
Lawrence of Arabia region 2 DVD
My Fair Lady region 2 DVD
2001: A Space Odyssey laserdisc, DVD

I can’t figure why Born on the Fourth of July and The Towering Inferno on laserdisc and the later editions of DVD doesn’t include the intermission?

Films on laserdisc and DVD with the missing intermission?

The Towering Inferno
Born on the Fourth of July

I was looking at this above Intermission and remember seeing parts of this being played in the background of the drive-in in the film Grease 1977.

So how many films have you’ve seen with the intermission?

The Region 1 Superbit Edition of Lawrence of Arabia has the full length intermission also not just the Region 2 version.

Disney included one in the 3 disc set for Fantasia/Fantasia 2000, on the original cut of Fantasia.

I believe there's an intermission in 2001 and Sound of Music right?
