I belive that Norway and Switzerland should be about the same.

It is now some time since I have ordered and DVD's from America so I do not know the shipping cost.

But if you find out how much it is gone weigh I can look it up on usps.org.

Frank and Ollie

Post by didierghez »

Hi,

Now that Oct. 7th has come, is there any info about whether the DVD will be available at The Disney Stores (I am trying to get a friend from Miami to pick one up for me) ?

It's a shame that this dvd has a limited availability release -disney theme parks and movie club-, so i did it through the movie club. When I get it I'll tell you, guys how it is. I don't know if there is more than the documentary itself, however it's worth it.
Specially since I can show to my students in my WALT DISNEY ANIMATION CLASS,.

Mine arrived last Saturday from the Disney Movie Club. I have not watched it yet but I opened it and it does have an insert. Everyone else who ordered should have theirs, soon.

After watching three discs of Matrix Reloaded to day, I got the chance to see this film. It was very well done and should be seen by any fan of Disney animation. One cool aspect of this film was all the pencil test clips from the various Disney movies, allowing us to see their "real work."

The relationship between Frank & Ollie is discussed here in detail as you'd expect and it was very heartwarming and fun. It starts with some of their early history and then jumps from movie to movie. Watching this film gives one a greater appreciation for the hard work and talent that was pourned into those early films.

In the bonus menu are a good amount of extras dealing with the Guys and with the history of animation in general. This release was well worth the money in my opinion.


:wink: Oh, and this movie was released in the US in October of 1995, you youngin! :lol:

And this part is for Tangela... they have some Rescuers pencil tests and as an extra is an early story reel from the Rescuers, so if you want more Rescuers extras, they are on this disc.
