Oh, I'm sorry, Netty. I'm just now closing in on catching up with General Discussion. Off Topic is next up, so I hadn't read that yet. Vacations are killer, lol.

It's great to see that we're getting featurettes on the voice casting as well as trailers (things sorely lacking with The Lion King's DVD). It all sounds quite good, though I'm assuming (and hoping) that there's still more to be listed for Disc Two. Either way, this release sounds better than The Lion King's and about on-par with Beauty and the Beast's (possibly better since we'll also be getting the two commentaries and pop up fact track).

As Disneykid said, this release seems to be much on par with the "Beauty and the Beast" release as far as bonus features go. It seems to have similar navigation system (no "Lion King" disorganization) and similar bonus. Some of the featurettes seem somewhat short, but others look pretty good. So, in the end, I think we'll be getting a very comprehensive look on the production of the film (and you can't go wrong with two audio commentaries plus pop-up tracks).
By the way, I do think we got a pretty good look on the production of "Lion King" on its DVD. What really marred it was the crappy navigation system.

No, I predict that this will be it (the rest being games, music videos and commentaries).

I think the other bonuses will be passed along with the bonus from the first disc. At least I hope so... Otherwise, it doesn't look that promissing. :P

Now that's more like it! :up:

I don't want to be the pickiest guy in the world, but it is a shame Disney isn't going to include all the deleted songs. Still, I'm happy with what they are including.

Nick and Jessica doing "Whole New World"? Awesome!

Glad they're including trailers this time.

Agreed! Now this truly sounds like a great release. Like I said before, this could possibly be better than Beauty and the Beast's DVD since Aladdin has the advantage of not only the commentary and fact tracks, but it also has deleted scenes (and songs), which Beauty and the Beast only had one of (the original version of "Human Again"). Nice to see the Platinum line moving back up again! :up: :D

Who are Nick and Jessica? :D

By the way, are there going to be 3 video clips of the same song? The original with Peabo Brison and Regina Belle, this one with Jessica and Nick and the one with the Disney Channel "stars".

Looks like it, Joe, which is great news in my book. Nick & Jessica? Sounds awesome. I would rather have seen Ruben Studdard (surely they remember his amazing Whole New World performance on American Idol), but this sounds great, too.

I think Kelvin's right, this release should fall somewhere in between BATB and Snow White, which is more than I had originally expected.

You can now see the final "Aladdin: Platinum Edition gift set" package here on the Disney Database! No more theatrical poster cover art, so it seems.

Gorgeous box, but one oddity: Aladdin's now on the spine instead of Genie. I hope this is a permanent change because I'd much prefer the TITLE CHARACTER to be on the spine of his own movie's DVD.

Hmm, that film frame is curious.... It seems it is a frame from a real piece of film.
