The Walt Disney Company has not released a complete version of the film in the United States on home video given the film's controversial reputation. Over the years, Disney has made a variety of statements about whether and when the film would be re-released. From 1984–2005, Disney CEO Michael Eisner stated that the film would not be receiving a home video release in the US, due to not wanting to have to have a viewing disclaimer and fearing backlash and accusations of racism. However he favored its release in Europe and Asia where "slavery is a lesser controversial subject". At Eisner's request Uncle Remus was not featured at the Disneyland, Disney World, and/or Tokyo Disneyland Splash Mountain attractions, instead replacing him with Brer Frog as the narrator. Quotes of Uncle Remus from the film are still carved along the wall of the ride at all three locations. In March 2010, new Disney CEO Bob Iger stated that there are currently no plans at this time to release the movie on DVD yet, calling the film "antiquated" and "fairly offensive". On November 15, 2010, Disney creative director Dave Bossert stated in an interview, "I can say there's been a lot of internal discussion about Song of the South. And at some point we're going to do something about it. I don't know when, but we will.
