You'll get the lithographs when you pre-order it, you just go up to the cashier and say that you would like to pre-order The Jungle Book. You just pay the 19.99 plus tax and their yours, also they are selling a Jungle Book snowglobe for 4.99 when you pre-order the dvd.

I pre-ordered my copy on monday and the snowglobe is awesome and fitting to the film's theme. The Lithos are so amazing, I like Shere Khan's pic, it proves how much power he has and gives way to a certain tension in the sequence.

I have to wait till my doc's appointment on Oct. 16 to grab it.

oh well maybe I can try and rent it from the libary or video store.

No Blu Ray for The Jungle Book. At least not this year. Maybe 7-10 years from now. It's pretty much known by now that Sleeping Beauty will be the first of the DAC's to be released on Blu Ray which will be October 2008. 101 Dalmatians (coming March 2008) will not have a Blu Ray release as well.

The semantics of a DAC or a regular Animated Feature doesn't really matter anymore to Disney, though it's still a hotbed for debate among fans. I'm in the same boat as netty, and still classify any feature made by Walt Disney Feature Animation to be a Disney Animated Classic (DAC), so Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons fall in that category, as will the forthcoming Bolt, Rapunzel, and The Princess and the Frog, regardless if they're CGI and not 2D animation.

Well, the animation in Enchanted isn't even done by Disney (it's been outsourced to James Baxter Animation, and James Baxter is best known as the supervising animator for Belle, Rafiki, and Quasimodo), so I don't see how it could even fall under something done by Walt Disney Feature Animation.

enchanted and winnie the pooh and tigger too will always remain disney even tho they r outsourced to an outside animation studio. only they r not count as DAC. whatever disney, the DAC lineage still matters to me.
