For anyone in the Orlando area, Jodi Benson's going to be at a special D23 screening of The Little Mermaid at AMC Disney Springs next Wednesday, May 28. She'll have a pre-show panel before the film, followed by a screening of the film itself. D23 Screening of The Little Mermaid with Disney Legend Jo...

Farerb , is that the bonus feature from the Diamond Edition? Popping in here because you DM'ed me on IG so I thought I'd check out how the forums are doing. Found a discussion about physical media bonus features so naturally I have to chime in, haha. Based on the running time, I'm assuming it's all...

Happy 24th, UD! I'm barely on here these days, but I still try to remember/recognize the UD-versary.

Were there any home media announcements at D23 this year? I haven’t heard anything. Before the expo, there was speculation on this forum that a Sleeping Beauty 4K might be announced and similarly, I was hoping a Mary Poppins 4K might be announced at that movie’s panel. Any announcements or any rumb...

Finalized my schedule for the weekend, these are the panels I will be attending for the Expo. Thanks to overlap with other family/friends' reservations, have guaranteed seating for panels in bold italic . I'll try to get in line for the others, but if I miss them, then it's more show foor time for m...

Wow, a thread after my own heart. I remember the heydays of this forum, when Disney Home Media was pumping out new releases every month and that’s what all the discussion was about, all the time. I miss those days, honestly. The long threads anticipating what might be included as bonus features on a...

Which short and which classic feature would you pair together? Cinderella (1950) - Chino Shorts - the classic, clean-cut look that's endured for ages and never goes out of style. Sleeping Beauty (1959) - Chambray Shorts - it's all in how you wear them, they can be casual for a frolic in the woods, ...

While the schedule sounds exciting, why already have another panel for both Toy Story and A Goofy Movie ? Don`t get me wrong, while I think both movies deserves their panel, they already been celebrated at Disney D23 Expo before. So why have panels for them again? Why not having new panels for movi...

See ... I'm actually kind of furious that they didn't keep the steamboat finale. It might have been the perfect connective line between the two attractions, and it still would have been perfectly thematically consistent in this new storyline. While I'd love to have seen the show boat in the finale,...

Jodi Benson is performing the title role in Hello, Dolly! for a limited engagement in Orlando this summer https://playbill.com/article/put-on-your-sunday-clothes-check-out-photos-of-jodi-benson-in-hello-dolly I've got a ticket for one of the shows, will report back here again to share my review aft...

Darn... I would have loved to have seen the 2016 DCP in 2023... though there are no Cinemarks nearby. Hey, if you ever know of another reissue where they'll use that DCP, PLEASE let me/us know!! Where do you find all this super detailed info about the sources of the reissues?? I mean, if there's ev...

I did a cast member preview for the ride last week. It was a lot of fun, although the heat was terrible and a woman a few switchbacks behind us passed out. The theming in the queue is great, especially towards the end when we get to see Tiana's kitchen and it smells exactly like beignets fresh out o...

Is it possible for Disney to come out of grave they dug themselves in or will they continue failing and possibly end up being forced to shut down their animation department (I highly doubt that it will happen since Disney is too big to fail, but considering they shut down the 2d department cause th...

At this point it's more hearsay than anything else, but I remember back in 2010 when The Black Cauldron came out in its 25th Anniversary Edition DVD, Les Perkins (the disc producer) either tweeted or made a Facebook status that clarified while he had access to the Animation Research Library to put t...

I don't know how I've ended up with as many copies of B&tB as I have since it's more in the #12-15 range for me as far as DACs. I don't regret it though, since the film is a masterpiece after all, I just think it's sort of funny it almost competes with TLM for how many copies I have. And it was...

I hate that I missed out on Locales and Outfits during my first go-round, so I'm going to add an entry here for them, but also add two more rankings: Location: 1. Beauty and the Beast : Rural France 2. The Lion King : Pride Lands of Africa 3. The Little Mermaid : Atlantica & Denmark 4. Aladdin :...

I remember a lot of the online discourse on this very forum twenty years ago when it was widely accepted that the Disney Renaissance was over with Tarzan and we were in a new age that clearly was not living up to its predecessor. Folks were calling it a second dark age because all we had to compare ...

Meanwhile, I was thinking, do you guys think that maybe Disney will do another restoration for Beauty and the Beast as they did with Cinderella? Give it the proper presentation it deserves. Do one for the original theatrical version, keep it the same as in 1991, no changes. They already did back in...

Hero/Heroine - Protagonist: 1. Beauty and the Beast - Belle 2. Aladdin - Aladdin 3. The Little Mermaid - Ariel 4. The Lion King - Simba Belle has long been a character I loved and admired because of her love of books and her longing for adventure. LIkewise, Aladdin will always be my childhood hero....

The "Disney Legends" awards began simply as a promotional push for "Shaggy Dog Month" on Disney Channel . Granted, this was when The Disney Channel was actually invested in celebrating its history while still providing something new (I think Jeff Kurtti dubbed it "the PBS o...
