If they rework It a little, Change Simba, and the way kovu and kiara are standing, and make the background orange/red/yellow, than I like it more than the orginal boxart :P

I will only be buying it because of the "One By One" short (and because it's a double-discer :P ), so it better have a nice coverart.
From the preview, the One By One short appears to be the african kite flying sequence for Fantasia 2006? Is this right? I suppose there will be no Fantasia 2006 (or whatever) now if it is.

Yep! Unfortunately...

For the record, guys, I know very well this is only an advertisement (since when do Disney DVD covers have "Coming to DVD and video" posted on them?), but I can't see Disney going through all the trouble of making that artwork JUST for an ad. I'm positive that that will be at least the groundwork for The Lion King II's cover; it's too similar to most Disney covers not to be (primary character at the top, minor ones on the bottom).

On its own, this cover sucks.
As part of the orange-themed trilogy, this cover sucks.

I was disappointed when Disney re-used "The Rescuers" cover, but I really hope they re-use The Lion King II cover. It'll match!

I agree, that it's probably not the cover. However, if it were, it's not that bad. On first glance, I like it. Closer scrutiny suggests some needed changed, but I won't complain, AS LONG AS THE SPINES MATCH! It's bad enough that 1 1/2 is yellow and green at the bottom!
