Explain your edition title names!

Post by danfrandes »

Since The Aristocats is coming out as a New Edition in 2007, I was wondering that the edition title for the movie should be Groovin' Jazz Edition.

I miss the days where it was like "Special Edition" and that was about the extent of things.

Ditto.

There was a time when Special Edition meant the movie and some worthwhile bonus features. Now the name seems to be the more important selling point and features are thrown together to give the name a reason. Honestly, I'd still pick up a title like Ferris Bueller's Day Off regardless if it was "Special Edition", "Bueller...Bueller...Edition" or "We Ate Pancreas Edition".

I'm not sure if we had this topic already but either way. My opinion is that all those banners or labels or whatever they're called its just a name to seel the product, I agree that it should go back to the regular "Special Edition". Even though I don't mind anniversary edition but "New Groove" "Big Top" and "Most Wanted" for me are just labels to sell the dvd even though Disney shouldn't do that. I guess that they were starting to release DVDs as Masterpiece Editions but after Alice in W..I guess they changed their mind and started with these lame names, but in the end all that matters is the quality and the treatment they give to the film regardless of 2 disc, single disc, or labeling.

I think they'll call it the "Purr-fect Edition". Or maybe "Totally Swingin' Edition" unless they want to save that for The Jungle Book.

EDIT: Just read The Jungle Book was called the "40th Anniversary Edition". I liked my edition title for it more. :P

Already taken. See: Garfield the Movie.

I think these weird special edition names are goofy, but not worth getting worked up over.

You're probably thinking of this joke thread, which gives silly edition titles for various Disney films. I joined in, of course. :D

Don't take it that way. It's nothing that big to me, but it just bothers me that he's spreading a title I created is all. :(
