Disney's Aladdin DVD Press Release (Real One)

Disneykid · Post by **Disneykid** » Thu Jul 29, 2004 10:29 pm

There are a lot more menus than that, definitely. Disney never releases all of their menus before a DVD's out; just a few of them. What I find curious is how the Backstage Disney portion of disc two is laid out. It seems that many of the non-documentary video clips will either be in "The Art of Aladdin", in a separate portion of the documentary's menu, or both. Also, it bugs me that Disney still insists on putting deleted scenes on disc 1 and (some) games on disc two when they should be reversed, but that's just picking nits.

Hey everyone

I was wondering, does anyone know if the release date will be the same for all countries? I hope so!

The release date for The Netherlands is October 20.

According to the "Official site" the cover art looks more like the one on the US DVD release.

I have another question...

Is there any news on what languages and subtitles will be on the DVD? If it's been posted before, sorry

Disneykid · Post by **Disneykid** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 9:14 am

The press release doesn't say, but I would suspect there'll be English and French audio tracks and subtitles since that's what the previous Platinums had. Then again, I don't know if Australia follows the same pattern as the U.S. does...

One more question (sorry

)

I think that most of you would know about the "Good teenages, take off your clothes" thing in Aladdin (if you don't, go to http://www.snopes.com/disney/films/aladdin.htm to see it, and to hear it), do you think Disney will edit that part out of the DVD? I also think they might edit the priest in The Little Mermaid (when the new DVD comes out), that caused some controversy

Disneykid · Post by **Disneykid** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:52 am

Well, even though both rumors are false, I think Disney will probably change the line since they edited the sfx/sex cloud thing out of The Lion King. Got any MORE questions?

sCArs · Post by **sCArs** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:59 am

Nah, I think I'm all questioned out

Thanks for replying!

Those games look very interesting. Disney's games are more entertaining when they're all big and elaborate, which has been the case with all the platinums and seems to continue on with Aladdin. It seems the Genie's living space isn't so itty bitty afterall. Heck, I'd even like to live there.

The CGI Jafar creeps me out, though. Thanks for posting the pics!

Thanks a lot for posting, Luke!
Even though I'm not too keen on the games (hence I'm not the target public) I must admit I find the ones on the Platinum editions to be quite entertaining (at least the "virtual" ones). They really show that some effort is put on these DVDs. As Disneykid noted, it's nice that "Aladdin" is continuing this trend (but I still think there are too many games on this DVD).

The games look cooler this time around - particularly Inside Genie's Lamp & 3 Wishes. Cool to see some snippets of the deleted scenes, it's really geting me excited to see them in full. Thanks once again, Luke!

Thanks Luke for the preview! These games are always a lil' fun to play, especially being on Platinums, but I must agree with Joe Carioca that these DVDs are becoming way too packed with them. I think one or two virtual games would be fine for any movie. Although it's rather ironic how Dreamworks SpielbergKatzenbergGeffen is gonna have it's own games section on the Shrek 2 DVD, even as it's separated and twisted from the Disney method into it's own way of doing things. But I guess ya just have to learn to love games when animatied films are even today viewed as "kiddie fare"
