Lilo & Stitch 2-Disc Big Wave Edition 3/24/09

[ajmrowland]

Honestly, I actually would look at the disc art a little bit before popping it in.

Either way, I ordered this from Amazon. Estimated arrival for Thursday. Free shipping!

I agree, the lack of disc art is lame!! Whatever, at least it's two-discs.

While I agree the lack of Disc Art is disappointing....at least the ton of bonus features make up for it....for once

Also I posted this in some other post about Bolt,

The Wal-mart which i purchased Bolt and Lilo said that their higher up employee was told by Disney to release it on Friday....and maybe only certain store chains were given the green light to put them out early I.E Wal-Mart and apparently Target have them while ToysRus does not.....and I am willing to bet that this was done to do something to the effect of compete with the DVD release of Twilight....

I got my Lilo along with Bolt on Blu at Wal-Mart today. They also had the DVD for Bolt for sale.

I picked up Bolt and Lilo at Wal-Mart on Saturday. I work at a Video Rental store, and we were told to put the Bolt out on Friday as well.

Are there any sneak peeks on the Lilo DVD? I couldn't find any.

Nope. Not a one.

Going to Wal Mart later tonight. Fingers crossed that I'll get lucky and they'll both (or even one of the two films) will be on the shelves tonight.

Thanks for the pictures, Aly!

I'm disappointed about the lack of disc art though.

But it looks like you're getting a slipcover, and we did not.

Wanna trade my disc-art for your slipcover?

I have been looking forward to this release since I first saw it advertised in the 2003 Special Edition of Sleeping Beauty. I never purchased this film during its initial release, nor have I ever seen the film until this point. I figured I’d just wait for the upcoming Special Edition. This film was definitely worth the wait. It truly is one of the best Disney films I’ve ever had the pleasure to see. It has that special magic that I’ve felt newer Disney films had lost over the years. It easily made it into my top 5 Disney films.

I was shocked to see the amount of Bonus content; that documentary on disc 2 was better than some of the Platinum Edition material. I find it odd how the disc no ‘special previews’. It leads me to think that Disney has had this release ready and finished for a while. I think the actual discs were created and ready to be burned and packaged for a long time, hence the lack of trailers.

Also, I have not purchased a DVD since The Little Mermaid II Special Edition (I’ve gone completely Blu-Ray), so I’m not sure what to think of the Disc Art. Is this something new Disney’s been doing? It looks terrible.

All the signs point to Disney having prepared this release years ago. That was when they had SEs that did not open with previews. tENG didn't, but oddly enough, Atlantis did.

My copy just shipped from Amazon -- but half of me won't believe it is finally coming out until I hold it in my hands. I can't wait to dig into those bonus features.

It's real, I held it in my hands today. But then put it down and decided to wait until Tuesday to get it at Target for much cheaper.

For those who have not bought the BLU-RAY of Bolt and are planning to do so, the best place to get it at is Toys R Us selling it for 24.99! They list a bunch of other movies you can get (including Lilo and Stitch!) that will save you $10 if you buy both. With the $10 off coupon, your total will come out to around 25...whilst best buy your total is 31.

[dvdjunkie]

If Lilo and Stitch were coming on Blu-Ray that would be a different story, otherwise, I am not double-dipping on this baby. Lilo and Stitch lacks the rewatchability of some other DAC, so I will be happy with the original release, it looks great up-converted on my LG Network Blu-Ray Disc player.

Will pick up "Bedtime Stores" as my next Disney release on Blu-Ray.

So, you're gonna ditch Stitch to watch a bad Adam Sandler movie? Shame on you.

The word "Bad" is a little redundant.
