I'm not a big fan of the Incredibles so I would say Bambi.

Are you from the U.K? i saw an ad in college today, on the tv, advertising that disney was doing another 'buy one, get one free' deal, or a 'buy one get one half price' im sorry, im not sure which one it was. Maybe then you could get both! :P

If it was up to me I would save up my money and buy both cuz they're great movies. But if I was forced to choose one, I would without hesitation pick Bambi. Nothing is better than a time-less and price-less classic.

Word!

Also, in a few days, The Incredibles will be cheaper because the market is flooded with DVDs of it.
For example, here the price ofit went from $28 to 20 bucks in just 5 months!

I like The Incredibles much more but it just comes down to this: Bambi will be OOP soon. And it is not just that, but stores will soon (as it happens here already) not be having them in stock.


And don't worry about The Incredibles' slipcover. I was at a mall today and saw TONS of them with it; even at Blockbuster. And if you start saving at least $1 per day, you'll be able to get it with it. And if not, it is not such a big deal since it's nothing special aside from the shiny effect; I've got my A Bug's Life Collector's without it and I don't complain.

I Wouldnt Say That "Bambi" Is Going OOP Soon, They Usually Go OOP January 31 Every Year.

Well Lion King came out in October 2003 and went OOP in January 2005 although there are still some available. Disney just isnt' printing them anymore. That's 15 months. If that's the same with Bambi, it would mean Bambi would go OOP in June 2006.

Bambi - it has more re-watching value than The Incredibles...

I find myself not wanting to watch The Incredibles again, even though I definetely enjoyed it; perhaps it's the length and the fact that it's not that touching.

Bambi is a warm, heart-touching movie that I'd like to watch again soon.

Also it have a signnificative value.
Remember it was the first Disney move to use the system of the moving camera and the painting on crystals.

The scene when Bambi´s mother die, it passed to the history as one of the sadest(I mean sad)scenes on the movies.

At Circuit City The Incredibles will be a incredible price $12.99 from 05/26/05 to 05/30/05.

So maybe you could pick up both before Memorial Day.

As long as they still have it at the store and they decide not to cancel the sale or something stupid like that. I wouldn't wait too long though.

While TI is great (film and DVD), I prefer Bambi on both counts. Throw in the fact that it's part of the limited issue Platinum line and a classic piece of film history, I say get that one. Of course you don't want to pass up a great sale, and even if you decide on TI, you won't have made a bad choice.
