I own the first release, but I MIGHT consider buying it again as I've had problems with my current DVD where it wasn't even playing. Before I double dip, I'll clean my disc to make sure.
Cinderella II was cute and when you have a niece who ADORES Cinderella, then this is the type of movie you want to own. Especially when at the time it was the only Cinderella DVD available.
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

Ferret! That's it! It does look like a ferret! But the texture, it looks so foreign and different. Looks like he would be in an interesting animated film if it ever is made. Can you make films on your own, or do you have to pitch the ideas to a big business, or you have your own business...? 'Cause that's crazy cool. You could be the like the guy who did Romeo and Juliet: Sealed with a Kiss?

OH NO...YOU DIDN'T! That is too funny!
If this has a cool cover...and the game is cool...I may succumb. But it really should have gotten a new short. Any chance they...completely re-did the animation?!

Glad you like Fredricks' design. Yes, I can make his film when the time is right, and hope to maintain his current look. However, getting good, affordable voice work will be a challenge.
As for Cinderella II, it's the traditional, standard flat-shaded TOON BOOM production with a little CGI thrown in here and there (act II features a CGI Ferris wheel).
Ahhhh, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I actually prefer Barbie-ized Cindy clipart over that THING. She looks flat-out creepy. Then, of course, we have a Fairy Godmother who seems to have gained a few pounds in her cheeks as well as a brunette Anastasia. I will agree, though, that Jaq looks pretty on-model (both of them). It's also kind of dumb that they didn't use the 80's Cinderella logo that was put on both Cindy 1 and 3's DVDs. I don't even know why I care. I'm not buying the wretched thing, anyway. Still, fans of this film (come on, we know you're out there) deserve better, even if the film itself doesn't.
Well it's not that bad..is it? But Cinderella looks so un Cinderella...She looks like that fake Cinderella that was bumbling around in Cinderella II. And whats with the title? It looks like they accidently spelled it "Cinderela" and so they cheapley added the extra L. What a junky cover
That's a definite downgrade from the old cover art, so I'm glad that I already own the original edition. However, I wouldn't be purchasing this terrible excuse for a film even if I didn't own it. I don't even remember why I bought it in the first place. Oh yes, because I wanted to be a completist, even if I didn't even like the film. Ay yi yi yi yi, I'm glad I've learned to not throw away my money.
i hope that this isn't the final cover art(though it probably is ) her face is all wrong, her expression is worse than the first time it was released on dvd. with that said, i do like the blue background and how there isn't a ridicululous "name" edition.
I think for the first time ever, i'm gonna have to turn this release down. It would've been nice to get some effort in the cover art at least. Well nevermind, It's not that the set up isn't bad it's the characters. I hope it gets redone.
I don't mind the cover art. Yes, I know Cindy is way off model, but who cares? I'm not tearing my hair off because Cinderella looks more like a Trisha than a Cindy.
And by the way, I am utterly disinterested in the possibility of ever owining Cinderella II.
I can see what they have tried to do with the composition etc, but I just dont think it works. It has that 'clip art all plonked together' look about it.
As for Cinderella's face, oh my gosh! It isnt her at all! It's actually from the UK DVD boxset of Cinderella: Special Edition and Cinderella II: Dreams Come True.
Here is the orginal picture:
I'm not sure which of the covers I prefer! The old DVD cover, which I thought was utterly dull with her coming out from the carriage, the UK special edition which practically glowed it was so pink, or the new US special editon! They havnt got it quite right each time.

I'd just like to know what the bonus features are. If the disc includes anything better than what my 2002 copy has, I'm buying it. I love this movie just for the first story. (This does not count as Opinion B. I own Opinion G. in all its entirety, which stands for Opinion of the Grand Weirdness.)

New: set-top game "Race to the Royal Banquet"
Old: featurette "Musical Magic", set-top game "Cinderella's Enchanted Castle", Cinderella DVD storybook, Brooke Allison's "Put it Together" music video.

well at least they market it right this time.im sure they received hate mails over this production.announcing it as 3 short stories of sort is the wisest thing to do, as it wont degrade the original movie as much and just be taken as a sort of enchanted tales' cinderella compilation.
