I'll be happy enough to have it released. Because it's even more underrated and unappreciated than TGMD I'm afraid it won't be treated any better. A good cover with most of the characters and a good transfer would be nice, but a few more bonus features would be good.

Maybe it'll get a weird subtitle like "The Black Cauldron: Legend of Prydain Edition." Really, "The Black Cauldron: 25th Anniversary Edition" would be good enough.

I have the first, but I don't watch it too much. I like it, but it's not one of my top faves of the DACs. Still, I do need to get the newer one if it gives an aspect ratio upgrade.

Then to your delight, the new special edition iis in widescreen instead of full screen which the Gold Collection Edition was. It was also confirmed in the aspect ratio thread that only the Special Edition presents the film in it's Original Aspect Ratio:

"The Aristocats" 1970 Premiere Release Information

"Mr. Exhibitor The Aspect Ratio For "The Aristocats" For Best Screen Quality Is 1.75 To 1."

(NOTE: Only the 'Special Edition' DVD release of "The Aristocats" presents the film in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.75:1)

Thanks. I thought that was one I had on my "need to get" list.

I made a now-ignored thread in the Polls & Games section which discussed possible edition titles for Disney's home video releases as I was inspired by Disney's Un-Anniversary Edition of AiW. I never thought that it would have come this far

So I do not think that it is no longer impossible for us to get

Hercules: Glaring Pectorals Edition
The Hunchback of Notre Dame: True Beauty Shines From Within Edition
Pocahontas: The Floating Leaves Edition



The Black Cauldron: Eilonwy is not from a Don Bluth Movie Edition

Oh boy. Now I'm really excited for "The Black Cauldron: Munchies and Crunchies Editon."

Margos! I had just taken a sip of tea and now look at my computerscreen!

You don't wanna know what that means in Dutch...

The Katzenberg C*nt

What I want to know is: WHY didn't Disney carry over the scrapbook from the previous edition? I mean, "bonus features" are awfully meager as it is, but why not throw it in? I know a *real* art gallery is too much to ask for since this film was not produced between 1937-1967 or 1989-2000, but STILL...! Why not the scrapbook? It's not that I desperatelt *want* it, or need it, or won't buy the dvd without it... It just DOESN'T make sense. There's absolutely NO valid reason to exclude it!...

Okay, I'm done now.

The only things I wanna know is: is picture quality better than the old version? And will it have the same Dutch voices? (The Aristocats new edition unpleasantly surprised me when I discovered, to my shock, that the old voices were replaced with new ones!)

So it's doubly apt, then?

My friend Joey told me about the re-release when he read it of UD. So of course I came straight here to read for it myself lol. I do like "The Great Mouse Detective" a lot and I think deserves a re-release, but I'm still on the bandwagon that's awaiting the re-releases for "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" and "Hercules". I might be double dipping on this one when it comes out, I'll just compare it to the edition I already have and see if it's worth it or not.

Maybe Disney will put them in a back-to-back release entitled

Hercules and The Hunchback of Notre Dame: The Post-Lion King Disappointments Edition

or

These-Movies-Made-Money-That-Other-Animation-Studios-Would-Kill-For-At-That-Time-So-You-Must-Be-Wondering-Why-We-Neglected-These Edition

If "Hercules" does get a lame DVD reissue, I'd bank some decent money on the Zero to Hero Edition. It will include a shiny slipcover and a game that cost more money to make than it would have cost to port over any substantial bonus features. And "The Hunchback of Notre Dame: Topsy Turvy Edition" feels too lame to not be a possibility at some point down the road.

The Black Cauldron: Use More Elbow Grease Edition
The Black Cauldron: Aspiring Pig Keepers' Edition
The Black Cauldron: Don't Stir Cuss Up Edition
The Black Cauldron: Good for Baths, Cooking, and Animating Dead Soldiers Edition

Back on topic, I still need The Great Mouse Detective for my DVD collection so I'll be getting this re-release. Same thing with The Black Cauldron.

The Black Cauldron: Smoking Hot Edition
The Black Cauldron: Legend In The Smoke Edition

Or maybe something better...

The Black Cauldron: Uncut Edition

I'll be EXTREMELY happy if it's released uncut!

I doubt they'd go with Zero to Hero since they had another Hercules release (on VHS), one of those mock sequels that just stitched together TV show episodes with bad connecting animation, by that same title. So, I think it would probably have something to do with the word "Titans" and come out around when Clash of the Titans comes out, ha. "Hercules: Clashing with Titans Edition", or something like that, ha. Or not, but I doubt "Zero to Hero" because of that old release of theirs.

True, though last week had you said "Mystery in the Mist Edition" as a name for TGMD, I would have punched you in the head and told you that was the least probable title ever.

Hercules: The Olympic Hero Edition

Hercules: The Immortal Edition

Hercules: The Edition That Went The Distance, And Then Came Back

Disney are run by a bunch of fools, it'll be something you won't expect, something like Hercules: Buff and Tuff Edition. I think they should sell their library to some other studio if they aren't going to bother making a decent release.
