An advice : if you're to rebuy this sets only for their cover, for Brother Bear I'd rather recommand to buy the "Deluxe Edition" already out. As I said before, not for the DVD contents (just 1 disc, with missing bonus features from the R1's and the rest sucks) but for the gorgeous cover art and 'coz it's a digipack and the new CE won't be a digipack. When openned, the Deluxe Edition is really beautiful with on each side of it, 2 removing pieces of the covert (1 for the 4 tracks CD, and the other for the CDRom). When removed, these pieces make indiviudal covers...

But of course, if you don't own the Region 1's 2-Disc Set, buy the new French Collector's Edition for the DVD contents ! :D

Are these new releases all regular cases with slipcovers instead of digipacks? Cause I would love for that Pocahontas one to be a digipack... Nonetheless they still look great. Holland isnt even getting a slicover for Aladdin :roll:

Well, the new "policies" in France result as no more digipacks... On the other hand, after noticing the high prices currently given for this new collector's editions, we might dream it will be digipack....
Personnaly, seeing how look the pictures given above, I'd say it will be non-openned slipcases, just like the CE of Aladdin in France...

My jaw dropped when I saw those covers... they are damn beautiful! Actually, they are gorgeous! Specially "Pocahontas"! I wish I could aford it. :( Instead, I'm going to wait for the American edition. I hope it has a nice cover, but I'm sure it isn't going to be nearly as great as the French one.

The reason the U.S doesn't get cool covers like that is because of the soccer moms and the kiddies. :lol:

That Pocahontas cover SERIOUSLY rocks. One of the best (if not, the best) DVD covers I have ever seen. If the HK version is not that cover, I'm digging the French one.

Looking really good, as it is always the case with the French DVDs.

That cover is SO much better than the U.S. one, really nice colors and stuff. I never got why the U.S. cover was all blue... blue wasn't a big color in the movie, there was more yellow and red and brown.... the blue looked horrible. And all the off-model characters, ugh.

Those are some nice covers but the Pocahontas one is my favourite. I'll add that to my list of DVDs from other regions I want to collect. :)

Holy... that Pocahontas SE cover is gorgeous!!

America needs to take some lessons from the French when it comes to DVD coverart. I mean, honestly, we get such poo.

*drools some more*
Wherever. Whatever. Have a nice day.
