Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
Those covers are a bit bland. If they are supposed to commemorate 20th anniversary of the first film, shouldn't at least the first film be called the "20th Anniversary Edition" or something? I'm assuming it is just going to be the previous editions, repackaged, though. I wouldn't call it a 100% unnecessary release though. The non-3D editions of these movies that are circulating right now don't come with digital copies (I think the TS3 that came with the DC is now out of print), so it makes some sense to re-release them like this with a DC instead of a DVD. I'm sure there are a lot of people who feel there is more value in a digital copy over DVD, so for people who don't own the films yet, it makes sense.
As for the remaining films in the canon, I'm starting to get a little worried. I mean, the catalog films from the canon we got this year were 101 Dalmatians and Aladdin, both of which were Diamonds. I hope at the absolute minimum, they will get released through the DMC.
As for the Diamonds, it would make sense for them to release Pinocchio next, given that it is the only Platinum film to not get the Diamond treatment yet. But that Snow White book posted above is definitely a bit suspect. It would be kinda weird for the film to get re-released within the same collection though. Then again, this Diamond series has been pretty bad with continuity and such anyway.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
I am absolutely disgusted over the past year's home video releases....they have been lackluster, to put it mildly. I dont get why so many films that SHOULD have been released this year have not. BTW, do the package films ever plan to have a legitimated HD releases? what about "The Goofy Movie"..isn't this the 20th anniversary?; and that film definitely seems to have a following. Still no plans for a release of "The Black Cauldron" either. Do not even get me started on the atrocious DMC blu-ray exclusives of the vintage titles; very crummy that none of the extras were ported over for any of those releases.
Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
I'd like to own all the Diamonds but as the UK has stopped them, there isn't a way to do that over here. So I wanted to ask, are Sleeping Beauty and Aladdin worth it ? I have the UK release Sleeping Beauty on blu (I did have the 50th Anniversary, but sadly an old boyfriend took it) and Aladdin DVD from when it was launched as the UK equivalent of Platinum.
Are they worth importing ?

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
So, I was browsing the stores when I found that the Disney animated movies got new covers. Like when they did the Disney villains version.
The thing is that, even though at first glance looked cool and a nice idea, when you look closely to certain ones (like Aladdin) they look awful.
Still...
Except The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh all got new covers; Fantasia, Fantasia 2000 and Lady and the Tramp have but I couldn´t find them. Also, I find odd that they made a cover for Winnie Pooh when it hasn´t been released on BD; the same for The Great Mouse Detective.
One last thing: if The Black Cauldron got a new cover as well...does this mean there´s hope still for the BD release?
These are, I´ll just paste the link so the images don´t saturate the forum. I´m posting the DVD´s since it´s how only they appear on the site but I can assure they´re available on BD.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
I'd just assume it is a re-package of the original release to tie-in with Finding Dory and get the movie back on store shelves.TheSequelOfDisney wrote:Does anybody know what this new Finding Nemo release for May 29th is all about?

That or just the same release in the same packaging with movie cash. See those on Amazon all the time and quite frankly, I'm tired of it.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
They've been re-releasing a lot of their titles with Digital Copies to now say "Digital HD" on the cover, so that very slight change is probably what that is.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
It looks like there'll be different versions of Wall-E and The Incredibles, as well.
I guess it could just be a re-packaging.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
So, I am guessing we still have no word on "Melody Time", "Saludos Amigos", "The Three Caballeros", "Make Mine Music" or "The Black Cauldron" being issued onto blu-ray..........

We are fortunate to live close enough to a Cinemark that offers DisneyScreen. Last week I took my daughter to see Make Mine Music and we were the only two people in the theater. Then at the last second another family shuffled in. But that's it. The Black Cauldron will arrive on Friday. It will be interesting to see if there is much of an audience for it.
We've seen other titles as part of DisneyScreen like The Little Mermaid, The Aristocats, Tangled, Pollyana, Hercules, The Princess and the Frog, etc. which were all decently attended.
I just think that other than diehard Disney fans, most people have never heard of these movies.

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
+ Finding Nemo as well:

They're doing these new "character-zoomed" covers for all the non-3D Pixar reissues, similar to last November's Toy Story releases. Hopefully Ratatouille will follow on a future batch as this is the only Pixar title which never got a DC on any release. 3D would be welcome too but I'm not holding my breath...

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2015
These look like the same covers used in the UK for the Heroes / Villians collection ? Only they were slipcovers with the usual one underneath. Pretty similar anyway if not identical.
