You probably mean the white slipcover, because the case itself is the same as the US (so I've heard). My favourite is Disney's UK Platinum Edition of Beauty and the Beast. Absoloutely stunning!

Ok since we're having the same arguement about farting pigs in 2 different threads, I propose we leave this alone and continue in the other one, or Luke's wrath will be mighty!

Maybe he'll make a nice little board room just for us two to fight? What do you say Luke? Up for the task? :P

I'm sure this has been asked elsewhere.. Anyone know why Disney alternates it's covers for each region? And why is it that the U.S. seems the have the dullest looking covers.. No vibrant glow.. Standard flat colors..

Obviously it depends who the consumers are for each area. I suppose in a country where most buyers are collectors, they'll recieve a fancy and classy cover, where as in another country where the main buyers are families, they'll recieve a more vibrant and colourful cover!

Yeah, I've envied some of the European covers compared to some U.S. ones. But from the looks of it the French covers have the noticeably Disney DVD logo more boldly than the American ones, which isn't a plus for me.

Ichabod reminded me of two other covers I really, really like,

The R1 covers of Fantasia and Fantasia 2000. Both are very classy. :)

I love what they have done with the Treasures line as well. The graphic designer on those should do all of their animated movie covers. If they are the same person/team then I would have to ask, "what happened?!"

Oh and lastly, the Dinosaur CE is a pretty nice cover with the close-up of the eye.

I like that newer Mulan cover. R2 Atlantis CE cover is cool too. And of course Fantasia and The Lion King PE covers are great.
Home on the Range cover is horrible!

I know this is WAY early, but I already know Herbie: Fully Loaded is gonna have an awesome DVD cover! I already own the poster for the movie so I'm sure the cover will resemble that.

Best Disney DVD cover art?

Post by sethn172 »

My favorite Disney DVD cover art?

The Lizzie McGuire Movie (not the Region 1 one; the DVD versions in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Latin America), definately! You have to see that cover to believe it! :jawdrop: I've seen it while surfing around foreign DVD online stores and foreign Disney websites, and you can too! Just go to the sites mentioned above (like a Disney site in a different country, or stores like Amazon.co.uk, etc.).

BTW, in addition to those sites, I've actually seen the cover of that DVD for real - I was at a DVD store at London Gatwick airport :cry: while waiting for my flight back to Dallas. (Living near such a big airport, at least I'm not too far away from seeing that cover in-store! [Mexico would have to be the closest]) :)
