Best DVD Release of the Animated Classics?

Post by Ric-Mx »

The Best DVD release of the Disney Animated Classics so far is:

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, I like my R4 edition better because it has everything that the R! had, plus a way nicer box...

I guess everyone agree.. isn't it?

I agree, is the only DVD I haven't heard any complaints from. I guess Beauty and the Beast comes second, since they both brought a lot of extra information. But in the term of the film itself, Snow White rules while Beauty and the Beast stinks! :D

Well every Disney film is different than another... but in terms of quality, about extras production and all the work behind the reales Snow White rules...

I think SB is a better film than SW but it's not a better DVD release..

Best 2-Disc: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (My favorite Disney DVD release ever; perfection all around)
Best 1-Disc: Treasure Planet (it's like a cliff notes version of a 2-Discer with commentary, multiple featurettes, abandoned sequences, music video, galleries, and trailers)

As others have said already: Snow White.

Beautiful presentation of the film.
Overabundance of extras.
Cool menus.

It's my favorite DVD set ever.

I think I'm going to go against the grain and say "Atlantis".

Atlantis really is a wonderful 2 disc set, and really tells you about the making of the film. It all depends on what you want from your 2 disc set.

Atlantis is the ultimate "making of"
Snow White is the ultimate "retrospective"
Sleeping Beauty is the ultimate "snapshot" with lots of archive programmes from the time or release.
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

I would have to go with the majority here and say Snow White, followed closely with Beauty and the Beast.

I really enjoyed the Lion King DVD but the fact that it has the "chopped" up featurettes kind of got annoying. I prefer "making of" specials to be longer in length that discuss all aspects of the film making process. Hopefully they will get back to this process with the Platinum Aladdin.

I liked the Sleeping Beauty 2-disc except for that No Secrets music video! A little irritating.

Theme Songs

Not that it has anything to do with Disney but I watched Animal House last night and they also re did Shout with a modern band and it was horrible.

Perhaps they should just leave well enough alone with these things.

Hands down Snow White has been the best DVD release by far. It definitely appeals more to the collector than any other release. None of the other releases (SE's, CE's, and now ME's) just don't live up to the Snow White DVD's content.
