Those last two would make excellent Blu-ray covers, in line with the Peter Pan artwork.
A bit more classy.
The Little Mermaid: Diamond Edition - Fall 2013
So I guess we've now seen the first glimpse of the new logo; the same text as before, but now a shimmering gold?
Keep re watching the trailer-evokes so many emotions! I'm ever so glad they used the original music instead of stock like some of the other Diamond trailers too...the worst is poor Cinderellas Diamond trailer.

But Frankenweenie was released in 3D in theaters so it was expected to be released on 3D Blu-ray. As for Mermaid, not only it's not getting a theatrical 3D re-release, we don't even know if the 3D conversion was even completed.Lnds500 wrote:That's what I though as well, but Frankenweenie was the same.

Omg, I spent so much time away I missed a lot of news and now I'm more exciting!
First of all, I love the new Little Mermaid's picture, that animation style it's gorgeous!
And the second thing, I found the trailer of The Little Mermaid in Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... cnAL5yT-38) and metion the "In 3D" almost at the end. So, I think that the 3D version will come next year and the material of the conversion will be use in the Blu.Ray 3D. [/url]

Can someone who's gone through the pictures from this link: http://princess.disney.com/ariels-story give me the links to the different illustrations? Like, when you click on the arrow to go to the next illustration, does the link change to like http://princess.disney.com/ariels-story-2 or something? Thanks for any help.

Not sure, but Jiminy Jaminy! The in-between transformation (Ursula to Vanessa) illustration is quite freaky!! 
Anyhoo, if Mermaid WAS in fact canceled, Disney is going to have to make it up to us big time! Because just a 3D Blu-ray, let alone Blu-ray, isn't going to cut it! There are thousands- MILLIONS- of kids this generation who have yet to see it on anything but a stupid TV screen and for some reason, Disney wants to keep it that way.

The trailer does use the new restoration. I made here a comparison between the HDTV rip of the movie, which uses the 2006 restoration, only remastered in HD, and the new trailer. The colors are warmer in the new restoration. See for yourself:
This is the remastered 2006 transfer in HD
This is from the trailer
The first thing I noticed when I watched the trailer was Flounder's coloring. I didn't remember him being so warm-colored on the Platinum DVD. Anyways, the restoration looks gorgeous, and I cannot wait to see it on Blu-ray.

I hope it ends up looking better than that! For God's sake, 'Alice in Wonderland' or 'Sleeping Beauty' looks a thousand times better than that and they're older films... If I remember correctly, in 2006, 'The Little Mermaid' wasn't restored by Lowry Digital Images and it ended up being the worst looking Platinum release.
