What does everyone think of the $29.99 package disney.com is offering? I usually abstained from getting those, but now that I have a little extra cash, I might start getting them. It seems a lot better that the box sets. You get:
1.) The DVD
2.) 4 Lithos
3.) A Lithograph Fame specially for the lithos
4.) A pen
5.) Three plus toys!
Sounds like the perfect mini-collection to me!
Edit: I TAKE THAT BACK! YOU DON"T GET A FRAME! BOO!

It's October the 4th when the Dvd comes out. I am going to get Suzy and Perla to sign my Dvd. They get a lot bigger in the parks, they get all the way up to like 5 feet, but that is still way smaller than me as I am 6'3.
ha ha Suzy and Perla are so tiny that they both can crawl into my size 13 shoe lol. Anyways when it comes to size yes I am a lot bigger than Suzy and Perla, but they are way older than me so I will always be there little baby. They take care of me, you know that 2 tiny little mice that are like an inch taking care of there child who is 6'3 is just so adorable

It looks like France will have a single disc edition available in addition to the 2 disc set.

I wish that's how they did it for region one... release a 2 disc set for the collector or those who really would enjoy it and a one disc for everyone else although if it's a PE release it should get 3 discs... yeah 3 discs! If it's worth being called a PE it should have enough features to fill all that space up. It would be like a feast of bonus material. Mmmm.... extras.

Well, it would be more convenient for those who just want the movie, but for Disney it's an extra & unnecessary cost. Why go through the trouble of creating and selling a cheaper edition for less profit when you don't have to ?

The 2-disc is already priced anyway at no more than $19.99 the first week it's in stores so you're not spending more than you would for a single disc dvd.

As far as I know, they all do, at least upon initial release. That's how it has been in the past.

I don't like the french single disc cover very much...
The two discs cover is a lot better!

I disagree.
What I like about this particular cover is that Cinderella actually looks as she did in the movie. She doesn't look like herself on the 2 disc set.

Long time no see guys.
Wow, less than a month to go, too bad I live in Italy and getting the boxset from amazon is a little complicated.
DO you guys know if they ship overseas and how much they charge for shipping? thanks

Yes they ship overseas. And the postage is the same as a normal single DVD - $6.98 for standard shipping. I don't know what expedited shipping is.
Standard shipping should reach you in 5-10 days.
(Unless the sodding customs officers are too busy searching big ships and confiscating Chinese clothing, in which case your parcels end up being thrown into a room and ignored for over three weeks. Not that I'm bitter. And at least the China crisis is over now. They just have to clear the backlog - and go into the room that they ignore!)

I'm looking forward to get it on DVD. I'm sick and tired of not watching "Cinderella" on VHS anymore. That's just another story. I keep my VHS tape in my closet until I will get the DVD when it comes out. I have the VHS tape since I bought 10 years ago that the quality on the VHS version needed more restoration because of the dirt and particals of the film needed to be clean. The first VHS release was 1988. The first version had a horrible picture quality and the colors are so messy. They needed to recover the whole elements until the 2nd VHS release 8 years later. As for the DVD, the picture is digitaltized, restored and ready to be release on DVD once again. Disney did a nice job. By the way, the digial screening will be held at the El Captain Theatre starting this Thursday from September 15 through September 25th. Just 9 days before the movie will be appearing on DVD. As for the VHS, It's going to be a collectable someday.

It seems Disney is already sending some copies of Cinderella out to the press. Here is an early review from Amazon:
For another of its classic films, Disney delivers another dazzling DVD with a gorgeous, razor-sharp picture and 5.1 sound. (Note: the 1949 film is properly presented in full-screen format, 1.33 aspect ratio, because widescreen films weren't made until the '50s.) The best part of the supplemental features is the archival material, the absolute highlight of which is two unused songs, "Cinderella's Work Song" (in which Cinderella imagines multiplying herself à la the Sorcerer's Apprentice) and "Dancing on a Cloud." Because these numbers were never animated, they're accompanied by stylish illustrations from the Disney artists, and they're simply marvelous to look at. The artist of much of that material, Mary Blair, gets her due in a 15-minute featurette, while the better known "Nine Old Men" are the subject of a round-table discussion among some of today's top animators. In addition, a 38-minute documentary covers their contributions to specific characters of Cinderella as well as the film in general and the vocal cast. Also on the historical side is "The Cinderella That Almost Was," tracking the development of the project through decades of original Disney concepts, characters, and songs, including the 1922 silent "Laugh-o-Gram," which is also included in its entirety.
Additional musical material includes three radio programs and a short promo of the movie by Perry Como, in which he summarizes the plot amid some songs by the Fontaine Sisters, star Ilene Woods, and the host himself. Seven other unused songs (17 minutes total) are available in audio-only. The material for kids is on the sparse side, consisting of two music videos, Disney Channel personality Sally (from "Mike's Super Short Show") learning how to become a princess with the help of the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition crew and others, a minor dancing-princess feature, and a DVD-ROM design studio. Oddest extra: ESPN's "top Cinderella stories," including the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team and Joe Namath's New York Jets, although stories on Mia Hamm and tennis's Williams sisters should appeal to the film's primary target audience of young girls. --David Horiuchi
