Sleeping Beauty or Treasure Planet?

Post by Leonia »

I'm thinking of picking up a new DVD (after getting my sister her stupid CD player for her birthday, which leaves me...pretty broke), but I'm not sure whether I should go for Sleeping Beauty (being that I'll have barely $20, maybe $21--after the CD player--for it at my local Pavilions and that it's going to be LTO) or Treasure Planet (Fry's Electronics for lowest price).

Which would be a better deal for a high-schooler-about-to-go-broke-after-the-CD-player-purchase?

I'd say the better deal would be Sleeping Beauty in this case. Reason being that it has alot more special features than Treasure Planet and therefore will last you longer.

I love Treasure Planet, it's one of my favorite Disney movies, but like I said Sleeping Beauty would last you longer because it has more special features.

I'm guessing Sleeping Beauty is the better movie too. I wouldn't know though since I've never seen the movie. :( Though hopefully that'll change soon. :)

Plus Sleeping beauty is going out of print in January (Feb?) I believe, along with a few other discs.

Maybe best to snap that up first. It looks like a great set actually.

I hope that your little mouse is right, disneyfella (not that I am one to doubt :D). At any rate, your secret is safe with me... :wink:

Well, you don't have to be psychic to guess correctly on that one. ;)

SB is the better movie and seems to be the better DVD. :)

Sleeping Beauty all the way! I haven't seen Treasure Planet (not really interested) but I doubt the DVD or movie is better than SB.

I absolutely LOVE Treasure Planet, but even I would say that Sleeping Beauty is the way to go. I caved and got TP through the DMC, otherwise I would NOT have purchased it and awaited an eventual Special Edition release.

I love both films but the Sleeping Beauty DVD is more fun and interesting than the Treasure Planet disc.

sleeping beauty.

since treasure planet only came out on one dvd, it seems likely they will be releasing a two disc special edition or collector's edition within the next few years. sleeping beauty is being put in the vault for seven years.

Don't get me wrong here, I love both of these, but like everybody else I've got to say Sleeping Beauty - easily. This is one of the true classics, it looks better than ever, and it has a really spiffy new DVD with some great extras. Treasure Planet is all that, too, but Sleeping Beauty is the winner. It's the one with two jam packed discs full of excess making of material; it's the one that's on sale right now; and it's the one that is only going to be available a few months longer.

Pick up Sleeping Beauty now and wit until Black Friday for Treasure Planet - nearly every major DVD you could want will be dirt cheap that weekend. (I can't wait.)

I have to say... Sleeping Beauty! :-D
Yeah, both are great movies... both have outstanding picture and sound quality... but "Sleeping Beauty" is the most enchanting and is the one with better bonus features, so it's the one to buy NOW!! But don't miss "Treasure Planet" too! :wink:
