LOL, but it would have been nice if you could tell us. So, if Lady and the Tramp is a 2-disc Special Edition why did the trailer only state that it was a Special Edition, surely they would have said it was a 2-Disc Special Edition if it really was?

I also wondered why they only called it a "Special Edition". But im pretty sure Bod knows what hes on about!

I've just watched some of the first Bionicle film (er. Less said about that the better) but they had a preview for The Lion King on the front, and they only called that Special Edition DVD. They never mentioned it was 2 discs. So they can ignore the disc count if they want to.

Okay, I feel a little more relieved now

I've never really been bothered about the number of discs, as long as it has the same amount of bonus features, but with LATT, i'd be gutted if it wasn't 2 disc lol i don't know why, probably because its a platinum/special edition.

You can compare the one-disk and two-disk releases here (see esp. R2 — Holland):

http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=8142.

It appears that the one-disk release is missing some interesting documentaries, among others the featurette "From Walt's Table — A Tribute to Disney's Nine Old Men", a highly interesting round-table discussion with top animators!

In Scandinavia, Cinderella was released only as a one-disk version. It costs as much as the U.S. edition with postages. I'm happy to own it

Well, the Platinum Editions aren't called that way in Europe, I think. At least not in The Netherlands. They're all called Special Editions. The Netherlands did get two versions of Cinderella, a 1-disc and a 2-disc. The 1-disc doesn't include the ESNP Classic featurette. We did get a 1-disc of Snow White, but the others are all 2-disc.

Same thing happen here with some R4 special editions like Alice in wonderland and Pocahontas

Today the Dutch press release of Lady and the Tramp was released. And we will have next to a 2-disc edition a 1-disc edition again. I'm looking forward to it.

And here is our cover:

(a direct link doesn't work)

I like this cover! Isn't this one a bit different from the R1?
The only thing I don't like about it: The film title in English, Dutch and French.

Yeah that does look a bit weird

, I like the cover over all though, but i think I still prefer the US cover, simply because they're at the table, and not floating over it

, but it's still an ace cover!

I think I know why they do this. This DVD will be sold in Belgium too, and there they speak Dutch and French...

Yeah it'd be easier for Disney if they did that, has it happened much with past releases?

That cover is so much nicer than the R1.

Here's hoping the UK gets it too!

Only releases of the last month or two had more then one title on the cover. Cinderella had one title (but more titles on the disc art).

That cover looks nice, though the black bit underneath tramp spoils it abit.

ichabod · Post by **ichabod** » Thu Dec 22, 2005 10:12 am

Has The UK cover art had a revamp?

HMV certainly seems to think so!

I prefered the older one, I'm not a fan of the close up.
