Hmm... I must admit, the Jonas brothers song is pretty good!

I have to agree. I didn't really think that one could pull off re-recording that song as a rocknumber? But hey, I'm glad to have been wrong ;) It's a good song.

I don't think they ship from USA, but from somewhere in Europe.

I still don't know where to get this from, lol. All the sites that are shipping them out now are a little too expensive.

I'll get the soundtrack when I pick up my copy of the Little Mermaid DVD. That's what I did last fall with CInderella's soundtrack - got it at the same time as my DVD.
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.

I'm a Target shopper, so I sure hope that they'll be carrying the soundtrack. If so, I'll be sure to pick it up the day of release.

It's not fair. Over here (In The Netherlands) we have to wait for two more weeks for The Little Mermaid to come out.
Also, why is this film in 1.78:1 on the dvd, while the original negative ratio was 1.66:1? It's not like our tv's can't handle it, as was the case with movie theatres.

Same here, as I live in a Region 2 country. However, the stores here in Malta get Region 1 DVDs aswell, so until the Region 2 of Mermaid is available, they will have the Region 1 US Platinum Edition, which I'm going to get. I don't have enough patience to wait for the European Edition. Don't the stores in the Netherlands get Region 1 DVDs? If they don't, I suppose you could always order it online aswell.

Everybody has to wait 2 more weeks, dear! TLM doesn't come out in the USA until Oct 3, and aronud the same date in toher European countries (excet the UK that will have to wait until November).

In Germany the TLM PE ( well, actually a crappy 1-Disc release without the first dubbing :evil: ) isn't gonna be released until Nov.2. That's why I'll get the USA one. Although the DVD is Region 1, my player can still play them, since I changed it to Code 0.

Well, there are very few stores that sell region 1 dvd's, and if they do, they're very highly priced. And I still have to make my dvd-player regionfree, so that's not going to help either.

I meant two weeks after Oct 3. Ours is due on Oct 18, so we have to wait two MORE weeks.

Guys the wait is untolerable. I ordered my copy from Amazon in a priority delivery option only so it can arrive here on Oct. 5-10. My dvd player is region free so I hope all goes well. I keep staring at the screen caps lighthousemike posted and I'm mesmerized. But how long can I look at it? I want the real thing!! :(


Anyway, anyone here wants to guess how will TLM measure compared to other platinums in terms of sales? A reminder:

Snow White - 7 million DVD & VHS
Beauty and the Beast - 6 million DVD & VHS
The Lion King - 13 million DVD & VHS
Aladdin - I'm not sure, but wasn't it 3-4 million?
Bambi - 5 million
Cinderella - 7 million DVD

I say somewhere between 7-8 million.

Cheers :P

Preference from the creators to have it in the intended theatrical aspect ratio. Same reason that Beauty and the Beast, Hunchback of Notre Dame, and the Gold Collection version of Mulan were released in their theatrical 1.85:1 aspect ratio as opposed to the fully 1.66:1 animated aspect ratio.

That's the first time I've seen the actual DVD sales. But I agree with you. TLM has the "princess" audience of little girls to appeal to like Cinderella did, but doesn't quite have the general audience like TLK did. I'm surprised BatB didn't do better though.
