WOW!

Go Tangled!

Great movie, totally deserves those high sales.

It's great to hear these sales, but......

It's almost like people are encouraging the lack of bonus features on new releases.

And to think the comic adaptation of this movie was printed in the hugely popular 'Donald Duck' weekly magazine, read by approximately 2.5 million people (on a population of 16 million, that's considered a lot) and was presented as a "new Disney movie"! Ironically, while all new Disney Classics used to get comic adaptations in the magazine in the 1970's through 1990's, The Wild is the only one since Emperor's New Groove to have been given that privilige.

Not really... I'm encouraging the movie by buying it, not the special features. If I really like a movie, I'm not going to not buy it just because the special features platter is skimpy. It seems just as likely that Disney's going to be more tempted to force a double dip on us later.

^Oh, I know. I buy a movie for the movie too.

That was just me lamenting the old days when a movie could bomb and still get lavish DVD treatment for the collector's market.

Yeah, those were the days! I love my Tarzan, Dinosaur, Atlantis, and ENG Collector's editions!

I wouldn't be surprised if by the time Christmas comes around Disney wouldn't try pushing some sort of new special edition on us, especially since sales are so good. If not, maybe 5-7 years from now they'll throw it into the Diamond line or something. We all know how Disney likes to throw curves at us like that.

^ I actually think that's not a bad idea, and I would quite like that. The Diamond Editions are supposed to be Disney's iconic films, and I think Tangled is the best thing they've produced in a while,(animated) so it would actually be really fitting.

While I don't like the constant re-releases (cough Star Wars cough!), I would LOVE if they made a special edition of Tangled even within the next year or so. That's probably my favorite Disney movie since Hunchback, and I'd love to hear more about the process of figuring out the story, etc.

I just got the DVD!!!!

My mom went to Target because she had to get some things, so she decided to get my sister "Seveteen" magazine, so she got me the DVD while shes at it and as a bonus, she got me a $15 iTunes gift card!

I was going to finish most of my homework tonight, but hey I think I'm go to snggule up in my bed and watch Tangled on my laptop. I was really exicited when I saw her hiding the movie behind her back.

It was! My friend is sick, so my mom got a copy for her too.

I'll make my mom a "Thank you" card later!

disneyprincess11 · Post by **disneyprincess11** » Sat Apr 16, 2011 8:17 pm

So guys, forgive me a short post. But, I just watched Tangled and I suggest you watch it on your laptop or REALLY close because if you pay attention hard enough, you can really notice (this sounds stupid) how the background and EVEN the characters look like a watercolor painting!

I was surprised how recent the watercolor appearance/feeling appeared.

BTW (putting it in bold, so everyone can read this): My mom got me ONLY the DVD one, not the BLU-RAY/DVD combo pack. Can someone PLEASE POST the 9 theatrical teasers for me? Thanks!

@Sotiris

Oh, those were the teasers???? I never knew that! I thought the teasers would be like the first Tangled trailer, but only they were alternate trailers that would be never used. Sorry, I got confused. Thanks for posting though.

The word "teaser" is a bit misleading when referring to these kind of videos, so it's understandable you got confused.

UD Review of 'Tangled' wrote:Playable individually and collectively, nine Tangled teasers (9:12) stand as one of the more interesting and unusual bonus features. Three "Flynn's Tangled Tales" promote the film with crudely-animated original stories. The other six assume the airs of a perfume commercial, an infomercial, a live news report, a real estate ad, an old educational short, and a prescription drug spot. Some are better than others, but all are more appealing and creative than the film's standard teaser and trailer (which, as usual, are absent here).

Japanese DVD/Blu-ray Combo Packs:

MJW · Post by **MJW** » Wed May 11, 2011 5:45 am

Those are pretty cool, I like the gold-colored border around the Blu-ray 3D combo pack, but what is "e-move?"

Looks like it is a Japan-specific service that allows you to get a digital version of the movie on an SD card that you can watch on a mobile phone.

Auto-translation:

e-move (TM) is a new standard from Japan, SD card using a "mobile devices to easily take with the film" service. (E-move (TM) → Blu-ray playback device for mobile devices such as SD card →) official website http://disney-studio.jp/e-move/

Those are great numbers! The movie and Disney deserve this success:)
