Now, all attention seems to be turned toward another Walt Disney all-animated classic that's leaving video's Never, Never Land better known as the studio's hallowed vaults and coming out soon on tapes and laser videodiscs. Disney's 1953 animated version of "Peter Pan," which last appeared in theaters in July 1989 and has amassed nearly $150 million (at current dollar value) from its six theatrical releases, is scheduled to hit stores on Sept. 21, 1990. It will arrive on discs shortly thereafter. Although the announcement of its video arrival had been expected, "Peter Pan" nonetheless has video insiders abuzz.

That's $2 less than its price for Discounts on the retail price for "Peter Pan" start with a $5 rebate, which purchasers receive by mail- ing in a coupon. This brings the tape's actual suggested retail price to $19.99.

Half-morbid or not, Allen's most ambitious film is best taken as part of a jester's total work; viewed on this level, a la Chaplin and "Monsieur the emotional kick of the unifying final scene really packs a wallop. "The Fabulous Baker Boys" (1989, IVE, Frank Baker (Beau Bridges) supervises ivory tickling and attendant patter for one of the most cornball sibling piano-bar routines on record.

Jack Baker (Jeff Bridges), who coasts while Frank busts his behind, is a smug, demon-filled, no-doubt necessary censor of the act's worst material. For 15 years they've tempered each other's excesses. Of Then the equation is upset by the worn-but-beautiful escort-service vet (Michelle Pfeiffer) hired as the act's first-ever singer. Though Pfeiffer took every major best actress award but the Oscar, this is an ensemble effort all the way.

Games people might play Speaking of casino games, state legislators are mulling over a bill that would allow casinos to offer a game called Red Dog. Red Dog is the name Nevada casinos have given to the old kitchen-table game Acey-Deucey. It's played by dealing two cards face up. The player then wagers whether the next card's value will fall between the first two (e.g.

if the first two cards are a 6 and a jack, the bet is on whether the next one will be a 7, 8, 9 or 10).
