Il sera disponible effectivement en plusieurs package !

Dont une en valise plastique avec une peluche, mais dans celle-ci, ce sera l'édition 2 DVD. En pré-commande jusqu'au 19/11/2003

Alapage ( http://www.alapage.com/mx/?id=308681062 ... &sv=X_F_1L ), le proposait à 39,99 € / 262,32 FRF.

Le coffret prestige avec une peluche livre Simba, une édition prestige exclusive du livre du Roi lion et la Bande originale complète du film.

Quoi qu'il en soit, voilà à quoi il ressemblera :

Quoi qu'il en soit, le "nouveau mixage Disney 5.1" (Enhanced Home Theater en anglais) sera appliqué sur la piste DTS VF de notre zone 2, et de celle-ci uniquement!

Et c'est là un héritage de la version IMAX.

Quant à ce procédé, il doit surbooster l'enveloppe sonore, comme si on lui appliquait un DSP de traitement acoustique supplémentaire. Tant que ça ne ressemble pas à l'Arkamys...

Et en exclusivité, merci à MOZ, voici la preuve, à l'appui:

Voici le visuel haute définition du coffret, prévu en octobre chez nous, avec une VF DTS ainsi que le CD de la bande-originale du film:

Hey, that French edition looks pretty damn groovy...

And is that 1.66:1 I see? Isn't that the correct aspect ratio?

THAT is good, right?

Bonjour!

Yes, 1:66 : 1 is the original aspect ratio. I believe the Imax version was matted to 1.85 : 1.

Au revoir

Well, that alone seems like a worthwhile reason to pick up the French edition...
Looks like I might be getting this in addition to Aladdin...
Oh dear...starting down 2099's dark path of buying multiple copies...

I noticed something on Amazon.fr:


Format image :
Cinémascope - 1.66:1
Full Screen (Standard) - 1.33:1

Will there be two video versions of the film :?

Based on other [admittedly UK] reelases, the 1.33 standard comment is reffering to the aspect ratios of [some of] the supplements.

I'll have a look on my French Sleeping Beauty disc and see if they list 2.35 and 1.33 on the same packaging (the International releases only have the widescreen version of the film)
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

France always gets the best coverarts, and "Lion King" is no exception...
