Q: I have a tradition that I watch all of the Disney animated films on the day they came out in theaters. I am a little confused about what day to see Fantasia/2000. I can’t decide whether to see it on the day it premiered on December 17, the day it came out in IMAX theaters on January 1, or on the day it came out in general theaters on June 16. So please tell me which one of those dates should I see Fantasia/2000 for my tradition?

A: The December 1999 screenings were preliminary screenings (the premiere was actually at Carnegie Hall in New York City on December 15); I would go with July 1, 2000, when the general public could first pay to see the film.
