The Little Mermaid: Diamond Edition - Fall 2013

[DisneyJedi]

Well, if that's the case, then hopefully we WILL be able to see Mermaid on the big screen.

At least, I hope that comes to pass...

[disneyboy20022]

Also Perhaps they will release it like they did Beauty & The Beast. I think it would be more profitable for Disney if they released it before the Blu Ray release but hey I would rather see it released in theaters even if it's after the Blu Ray but I'll take it either way.

That is the most classy Disney cover in years! I really hope they'll end up using it. Have they finally got some taste at Disney marketing/home video? All that money and such a huge company, and still the most promo covers and posters they use looks horrible.

And I hope Disney keeps converting the classics from the 90s to 3D. People will go see them in theaters, the Pixar movies are to new to be re-released.

Disney chose a very good cover and still are rereleasing it in the cinemas?
It's just too many good stuff. Disney don't do such a lot of good decisions like that this way. There must be a fail somewhere to bug me.

[GreatGreg]

I don't think they are going to use that cover. That cover is a teaser poster from the original theatrical release and it is used again as a teaser poster for the 3D release.

Sorry to be nitpicking, but it's the teaser poster for the 1997 re-release.

Well as I said before, the image used to announce Peter Pan was the same as the final one used.

[Old Fish Tale]

I'm sure they'll use it for the 3D Blu-Ray.

[Disney_freak]

I don't think it will be identical, Disney can't leave a great cover art alone, they added gargoyles in Hunchbacks cover and tinkerbell peter pan's. They could go crazy with this cover and add a bunch of characters.

[DancingCrab]

I think we may get this as the 3D four disc combo pack cover, as it is similar enough to Brave and Peter Pan, but we'll get a more character heavy cover for the standard 2D combo pack.

I agree though that they will probably add Sebastian, Flounder or both on top of the teaser image.

I don't know if anyone have posted this already, but....

"Not sure if this was posted yet, but I found this on an article about TLM 3D "cancellation"

They haven't CANCELLED it, it's being rescheduled. Sources blew it WAY out of proportion. I can't post on the Huffington Post yet because they won't approve my comment but if you see this.. please spread this around.
The dates are CHANGING and they just haven't given a new one yet. How do I know this?
Because I'm WORKING on this project. Proves that you can't trust everything on the internet.

What are you talking about? It HAS been cancelled! I haven't found ANYTHING on Google talking about a reschedule!

If it was cancelled why have I been on this project still full steam.
You won't find anything on google talking about a reschedule because Disney doesn't have a date yet. The movie is nearly complete, we're about 80% complete. The Disney Execs even called us to let us know that this info was misinterpreted."

[jpanimation]

Not to mention they have a trailer for it on the Peter Pan Blu-ray, which they've had plenty of time to remove.

[DisneyJedi]

I just hope it's not released AFTER the movie hits the Blu-ray market. *glares at the fact that the same happened for Beauty and the Beast*

[Kyle]

Ahh, I had a feeling it was just delayed. Now we patiently wait to hear how much. Hopefully its still this year? I don't care if its before or after the blu ray release really, but the sooner the better.


I love how this random Jimmy guy acts like because he cant find anything saying otherwise on Google that the cancellation reports Have to be true. He sounds like a parody of the type of fan who acts like they know more than people working on it.

[DisneyJedi]

... I kind of care if it's released before or after the Blu-ray.

Mainly because it'll gain more bucks in theaters that way if it comes out before the Blu-ray hits shelves.

[disneyboy20022]

I don't partcularly care if Disney wants to release it before or after the Blu ray, I just want it in theaters even though it would be more wise to release it in theaters BEFORE THE RELEASE OF THE BLU RAY

[REINIER]

In theaters and with the proper bluray cover after cinematic release! All I ask

[Vlad]

Yeah, I also think it would be more wise for them to have a cinematic release before the home video release. It will surely be a big hit, since it's one of the most beloved Disney classics, and who knows, maybe Disney will re-release other animated films in theaters in 3D, just no Pixar, cause those seem to work on their original release only.

[Disney_freak]

I don't think they'll release it before it comes out unless its in August otherwise they would have to move their normal Diamond edition release date.

[Atlantica]

If Disney is still putting this in the cinema, then I have absolutely no doubt they will release it AFTER it has been put out on Bluray....as we all know Disney learns absolutely nothing from their mistakes. I don't have any doubt it would still do better than Monsters, Inc though; it has such a cult following that I'd be willing to bet all the 'Ariel-a-holics' will still go and see it in the cinema, despite purchasing it on Blu.
