Re: The Black Cauldron special edition?

I love this movie but if you live in Europe, haven't seen the movie before and have to import the blu-ray from the US I wouldn't recommend getting it. It is always going be expensive.

Re: The Black Cauldron special edition?

I am more than happy with "regular" blu-ray. 4k isn't even that interesting unless you have a very big screen TV (which I have no space for anyway). I have already seen The Black Cauldron in HD once and it looks gorgeous. I do hope that there will be some extra's on the blu-ray. But that i...

Re: The Black Cauldron special edition?

Getting The Black Cauldron in Europe from Ebay is certainly going to be expensive. But for selected titles I feel it is worth it. I recently paid a total of $66.82 (including shipping and duties) to get a copy of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea to The Netherlands. In hindsight that was a bit more than ...

Do they cost more than the regular US releases?
It seems that these releases have gone out of print. And Disney hasn't released any new steelbooks after the initial 3 that where mentioned in the first post.

I received the French DVD of the The Black Cauldron from amazon.fr this week and I must say that it is absolutely gorgeous! The picture quality is easily at the same level as the best of Disney's other restored classics.

Thanks for the advice guys! I'm thinking of maybe investing in a multi-region DVD player . .. .. as I was looking at the price of Snow White on R1 on Amazon.co.uk, and its £18.99 ! ! Thats shocking compared to the R2 ! Multi REgion DVD players cant be that expensive, can they ?? There is a great nu...

I think both formats wil fail. There's allready a succesor in the works of Blu-ray/HD-DVD that is called HVD: Holographic Video Disc. This format has a proposed maximum capacity of 1 Terrabyte! :o

Hi, :roll: That's interesting news for me. Why didn't they include it in the European ed. ??? Don't compare the American and the European editions: they are not the same.

As for grain - grain is not a bad thing. Too much grain is bad, but I personally think no grain is almost as bad. While not Disney, I much prefer the UK restoration of Citizen Kane (done by the BFi) rather than the US Lowry one, which removes all grain and makes the film look like modern video. I a...
