I posted this in the Don Bluth Thread, but I'd figure I'd post it here too

From Amazon.com about Anastasia's Blu Ray and possible Bonus features ( I almost typed Fantasia :oops: )

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004K0 ... ss_product

Also if a mod wants edit my amazon link to support ud feel free...I would do it myself but i'm not sure how 100%


Special Features
Audio Commentary by Directors Don Bluth and Gary Goldman
Sing-A-Longs
Anastasia's Music Box Favorites
Russian Stacking Doll Game
Anastasia's Seek and Find
Bartok the Magnificent
How to Draw with Don Bluth
The Making of Anastasia
Anastasia: A Magical Journey
Making of "Journey to the Past" Music Video
Music Video: "Journey to the Past" by Aaliyah
Trailers and TV Spots

If these Special Features are on the Blu ray...then that will make this 10x more better for me to get it....although I'll wait for an official press release before I start with the Pink Elephant Parade Emote and get even more happy...

Aren't all these bonus features already on the "Family Fun" edition DVD? So they just carried over these to Blu-ray (probably without any restoration either) and we get ZERO new special features? This sucks! :x :evil:

Was "Anastasia: A Magical Journey" on any other edition? Because I don't think it was on any other edition. There also seems to be two new games.

I only ever bought the very first DVD edition, so I'll probably end up getting the Blu-ray.

Does "Bartok the Magnificent" being listed in the special features mean that the "sequel" is included on this disc? I wasn't sure if it was the entire movie or just a preview of it or something...

Is it me, or does the cover for the Family Fun edition make Anya look like Celine Dion? Either way, I voted for the original DVD cover.

The off-model unfinished cover yes, but the final design was changed for the better. Weird that the disc art was not.

None of the covers are really great. It would be nice if the original black/gold poster art was used.

That new cover is a whole lot better than the one before !!!

But still not as good as the original poster. . .

Wouldnt it be cheaper just to plonk the original poster on the Blu release ? So they wouldnt even have to bother making up new cover art ?? Or is that just my crazy logic at work here .... ?

That looks nice, plus they're getting a combo pack. I hope the North American release turns out to be a combo pack, but everywhere I've checked it's listed as a 1 disc release. :( I only own a VHS copy! :lol:

France will be releasing the film on Blu-ray with the same cover as the South American one and as a combo pack too. Why didn't we get a combo pack? :x

Yes, I've searched amazon.co.uk as well and there isn't a Blu-ray listing of Anastasia yet. Perhaps it will get be released there at a later date.

For example, Canada is getting The Secret of NIMH, and All Dogs Go to Heaven 1 & 2 on Blu-ray in March and Germany is also getting The Secret of NIMH on Blu-ray this April while there is still no mention of a U.S (or other countries) Blu-ray release of these films as of yet.

Germany is also releasing Anastasia only on Blu-ray too (no combo pack) but at least they are offering with the Blu-ray an Activity Disc of Rio to promote the new Fox film.

It does seem odd, doesnt it ? Especially as France is getting it as well ....

But, if I recall, Alice on Blu was actually announced / listed in quite a few places before it popped up on play / amazon over here.

If France is getting it, it's a sure bet that the UK isn't too far behind. I actually prefer the French cover to the one that was announced for the American release (but if they had Anya in her opera gown on the French cover I'd love it even more!). :D
