Snow White 80th Anniversary

[Vlad]

Cool! I’ll see if I can find it anywhere else.

Maybe you can buy it online. There is more than one issue going to be made for this comic, so a new issue is coming! I don't know when though.

Do you guys see that animation!?! That is PERFECTION! Thanks for sharing!

[Marce82]

That's so cool.... is there a way to download that video???

Also.... this feels appropriate, since they announced it today, ON the anniversary:

The attraction looks cool! Look at Snow White's cape! I hope the witch parts are still a little scary!

First look revealed for ‘Snow White’s Enchanted Wish’ refurb at Disneyland park

That was unexpected! They've changed everything... But I think it looks great. Can't wait to go!

My husband said that a lot of it looks directly taken from the Mine Train ride @ WDW, but the faces of the dwarfs are obviously different. I think it looks great, too!

Bc85 also posted the news in the Disney Theme Parks section. I’m really surprised the refurb appears to be so extensive! I agree with her husband that a lot of it looks very similar to WDW’s Mine Train ride. I’m a bit sad because I always wanted to experience the notoriously scary attraction, but I think the original still exists in Tokyo? Anyway, what we saw in the video looks great so I can’t complain. As a kid I hated Snow White, but as an adult I think it’s my favorite of Walt’s “Princess” movies.

That piece of animation is perfection. I have always loved that shot of her in the movie, the way her cape and hair flow in the wind, her graceful movements. It's beautiful in color, but to see it in pencil form is just breathtaking.

UmbrellaFish: the ride still exists both in Tokyo and Paris.

The Paris version is almost exactly the same as the 1983-2020 Disneyland version (slightly different ending), the Tokyo version is a blend of the Disneyland and WDW pre-1994 version.

About these changes... they showed very little... most of the changes they showed only apply to the first 20% of the ride.... we don't know if the scary elements in the remainder of the ride will be changed...

But I agree, that most of what they showed is a change for the better.

I would be in heaven if each subsequent Blu-ray rerelease featured the original theater poster art as the cover.

^ So agree! Of course, I can't afford to re-buy the films I already have on Blu-ray, but I hope the ones I don't have yet will receive similar covers next time they're released. The Little Mermaid is the only one I buy every release for, although I might consider it for Hercules if it looks nice enough. Thankfully, I don't have The Sword in the Stone on Blu-ray because of the horrible restoration last time around; hopefully the repaired restoration it got for Disney+ will be released on Blu-ray someday soon. A close-up on the left side of thiswould be nice. Too badthis one is a re-release poster rather than the original, since it would look even better.

The poster of TLM with the main characters all around the palace would be gorgeous as a cover, really hope that happens. Since the John Alvin poster of her swimming to the surface has already happened, the only other one I'd really like a cover version of someday would be the poster of her sitting on the rock in the moonlight (that was the main menu image for several releases). Oh, well, and the '90s re-release poster, too.

I already pre-ordered my copy of Snow White, and I'm super excited to receive it. I'd love to see Blu-ray releases with the original theatrical poster art as the cover, too. For The Little Mermaid, someone posted a fan cover with the original 1989 poster art on the cover, and it looks so beautiful. For Beauty and the Beast, I'd love to see a cover featuring the IMAX re-release poster, with the rose, or the red one by John Alvin, with Belle and the Beast in silhouette dancing. For Cinderella, my favorite poster is the French re-release art from 2005, where she's drawn on model, with the clock behind her. For Sleeping Beauty, I'd chose the art used for the UK DVD in 2003, the Collector's Edition. I think that's my favorite cover for the movie. Aladdin would be the John Alvin poster, with the magic lamp. For Pinocchio, I have two choices - either the poster with the Blue Fairy shining light on Pinocchio, which I think was a teaser, or the poster with him surrounded by characters all over the poster, the really colorful one.

[Disney Duster]

I like the second Sword in the Stone poster best, too, Divinity. I think the original Little Mermaid poster would be a better cover and should be used because the second poster was kind of already used in a re-make of it in the first VHS. I do like that IMAX red rose cover for Beauty and the Beast, but it would be nicer to me to have the one of the couple dancing in red like Vlad suggested. I have never really liked the original Cinderella poster. I would rather the '80s re-release one with Cindy getting her hand kissed by the Prince in front of the castle. I want the John Alvin Sleeping Beauty poster with Maleficent's huge head looming over Phillip about to kiss Aurora in the shaft of light. I want the Blue Fairy shining light on Pinocchio for his film. I own the one of him in the oval completely surrounded by characters and scenes from the film. It hung in my room as a kid and I was always scared of it at night because of Monstro.

I'm confused, are you referring to the John Alvin poster of Ariel swimming to the surface? I would rather have the original version of the image of the four around the palace simply because that John Alvin picture was on some of the exclusive releases. I think it was the Target Diamond release's cover. So selfishly I'd prefer another since I already have one of that.

Either of Hercules' posters (the all-characters one of Hercules holding the title up or the John Alvin one of him riding Pegasus) would be very nice. I was looking through the holes in my collection. Mulan is the last of the Renaissance I don't have on Blu-ray. The holes I have left don't have much to do with preference order so much as what was available on the little DisneyMovieClub packets I was sent to re-start my account with more than anything else. That, and I tried to first prioritize films I didn't even have DVD versions of, like Hunchback and Tarzan. I'd love for a Mulan cover of that red poster of her riding Khan. I still wish I hadn't missed the release that came out timed to the Mulan 2020 "remake" ( ) that was of her in her father's soldier gear with the light through her home window highlighting everything. Atlantis is another I don't have--wouldn't mind if they ever released it with that poster of the A, lightning bolt, and waves.

I have most everything else that would have a good cover waiting in the wings already. (Mostly I lack a couple of the '00s films on Blu-ray like HOTR, TENG, and MtR, or older stuff like Oliver & Company and Robin Hood--besides that, DTV sequels.) That said, I always found Treasure Planet's poster to be gorgeous. A shame that was not the Blu-ray cover.

[Disney Duster]

No, I said the original poster. Remember, the original poster is the one of Ariel on the rock with the moon. You also suggested that, so I was agreeing that one should be done, too.
