Funny no one mentioned this... Monsters, Inc. and A Bug's Life CEs have been taken out of print in the UK. I have a feeling this will also be the same with the US editions. Maybe they'll rerelease them to promote Cars on home video?

Well it's true that each MP edition goes OOP when a new one comes along, but there's still always been SOME edition of it in print. I bet Disney makes some single-disc edition if they ever put the 40th Anniversary DVD OOP. Or just repackages the DVD as a "Special Edition" with different artwork.

Anyone heard anything yet? I want to join my son in the disney dvd club, but am waiting to hear what's going out of print so that we can get the ones we want when we join.
thanks!

We haven't heard anything yet, but Luke will post news when he gets it.

Disney usually puts items into the vault early in the new year.

Does anyone have any guess which DVD will go into the vault next?

I'm thinking Aladdin, I really need to hurry up and get all these DVD's! I don't have any of the ones listed here, I really need to get Cinderella, Fox and The Hound (one of my favorites), and Aladdin, not to mention AIWonderLand.

Any concrete news as of now? I just ordered many of the titles mentioned in this thread, just in case. What title would surprise you the most if it was put in the vault?

They did quietly discontinue the Vault Disney releases of Old Yeller, Pollyanna, The Parent Trap and Swiss Family Robinson, so these are no longer available ( I know Old Yeller is with Savage Sam on a double set and Parent Trap is with Parent Trap II on a double set). So Pollyanna and Swiss Family Robinson are the only ones you can't get now in stores.

My questions is, would Monsters Inc and Finding Nemo go OOP any time soon? They have been out for a long time. Also, I was thinking about Mary Poppins. Will it stay out long? Just my 2 cents.

I think the one I would be most surprised at if they put in the vault is The Incredibles.

Pollyanna and The Swiss Family Robinson are not in the Vault, but you are correct with the other two. The Parent Trap and Old Yeller Vault Disney editions were put in the Vault, since they were both recently released as double features.

According to DVD Aficionado, Pollyanna and Swiss Family Robinson are OOP. Amazon probably doesn't have it listed yet, because they still have copies in stock. DVD Aficionado releases information on discontinuations and releases before Amazon does.

I'm going off of the Disney Movie Club, and Pollyanna and The Swiss Family Robinson are both still available. So, your guess is as good as mine.

No, they are still in print. Visit this page for more information:

That's interesting. I guess now's a good time for people to get them if not already, just in case. DVD Aficionado is usually right, but there's always a first!

Likely, DVDaf is just speculating, unless they know something we don't know. I remember for months wondering why their entry for the Studio Classics edition of "The Mark of Zorro" was always marked as Out of Print, and come October, the abhorrent colorized version came out, which made sense to discontinue the SC version.

If Pollyanna and Swiss Family Robinson were vaulted, quietly, does that mean they intend to do some kind of different re-release with it? They already missed 45th Anniversary with this year, so they may possibily re-release it with their re-makes.

And if we're still speculating on other titles, with the early news we got about a month ago about a Bedknobs and Broomsticks remake on the way, methinks that the current Gold Collection/30th Anniversary Edition will quietly go out of print in order for a newer edition to come out concurrent with a theatrical release of the remake. But that's only possible if Disney is indeed going to do a remake.

OK, I think we should be hearing soon...unless Disney has changed its practices and is retiring titles at some other point in the year. Aladdin is the best bet for a title going OOP, along with its sequels.

My completely random guess- if titles are being placed in the vault on January 31st, we will hear about it next week. That's a random guess, though, so take it with a few grains of salt.

Hi everyone.

I'm finding that Aladdin is getting harder to find. I had to go to three places until I found a copy for my nephew for Christmas. According to the OOP list it isn't in the vault, but it sure seems that way since none of the 2 major retailers didn't have any?

Just want to know if I should pick some more copies (just in case) for my future nieces and nephews

It isn't in the Vault as of right now. However, Disney hasn't announced what is going into the Vault this year, so you never know! You'll just have to wait and see like the resy of us.

When do they usually make the official announcement? Is there a disney section of the website that i can find such announcements?

Trust me whenever they make the annoucement Luke will know and there will be a nice large post about it here on the board. We just have to be patient I guess. Though it does seem to be taking them a bit longer than last year to let us know.

Yes, "be patient". Meanwhile, if you intend to buy it, get it while you can.
