This wouldn't be the first time that cover art has been posted and then changed by Disney before it's released.

I've never liked when a character appears on a cover more than once, and I think the queen as hag looks kind of out of place and not on model.

Its interesting to me that they are planning a 2-disc DVD release with a 1-disc Blu-Ray, but its a pretty smart idea. So many people complain that if they buy the Platinum Blu-Ray, they only get the first disc on DVD and can't watch the bonus features elsewhere. This way, they have the film in HD, but can watch everything else on any player in their house.

yay for the DVD cover

Oh, so in October, will the 1-disc Blu-ray/2-disc DVD combo be released? If so, that makes sense and sales will be a lot better, I think, thank if only the Blu-ray combo with the 1-disc disc DVD were released in October.

I like the new Blu Ray cover art marginally better than the first attempt , but it's still far away from the perfect cover for Disney's first full length animated motion picture.
Snow White herself is better than in the first attempt ! The Prince looks rather more "butch" than in the movie! But the
Wicked Queen is poorly represented and the face of the Witch is covered by the Poisoned Apple! Doc and Grumpy are poorly drawn , in fact all in all , the rather too busy cover is a mess!

I like the DVD art better(much more "sophisticated", but I don't think there will be a one-disc blu-ray. If Pinocchio(the film) alone takes up 23 gigabytes, then there won't be nearly as much ported from the previous platinum edition.

I actually think it's a rather dumb idea (unless I am just confused, which I probably am, and thinking that Disney is no longer doing 2-disc BDs and the first disc DVD). Since I've been with BD for a couple of years, I would really like everything to be in HD. I think I'm just confused. So if this makes no sense, just ignore it.

Let's not jump to any conclusions. That link doesn't say anything about the release being 1 Blu-Ray and 2 DVDs. But I understand why you think it would be a good idea.

It actually does. It says 3pc, and Wbr. 3 piece with Blu-Ray.

Irregardless, I think that would be a good idea. Keep the same casing while adding a Blu-ray for the movie. I would definitely buy that.

Well, whether they do it as 2 DVDs with a Blu-Ray, or 2 Blu-Rays with a DVD, I'll be buying it, since I missed out on the first release (I didn't start collecting the Disney Classics on DVD until Jungle Book came out).

I think they are still doing both. My guess is that on October 6th, the 2-disc Blu-Ray with the 1-disc DVD will be released alongside the 2-disc DVD with the 1-disc Blu-Ray. In November, my guess is the 2-disc DVD by itself will come out.

The reason is that many people want all of the features on Blu-Ray to be in high definition, but there are others that only really care about the film in HD and would rather have everything else on DVD for the convenience of watching it anywhere (since most homes that have Blu-Ray have one player, but multiple DVD players).This also satisfies consumers who want the 2-disc DVD early because now you have access to it, but you are forced to buy it with a Blu-Ray disc whether you want it or not. Chances are you may have a player someday or you know somebody with one that you could give the disc to if you have no use for it. If you would rather save a little bit of money, then you have to wait until November.

If Snow White comes out in....

1. 2 Disc Blu-ray and 1 Disc Dvd

2. 1 Disc Dvd and 2 Disc Blu-ray

3. 2 Disc Dvd

This means that I will be getting 3 different Snow White editions

I hope there will also be just a 2 disc DVD set available, without the BluRay-disc. Otherwise I'll have to go through the trouble of ritually burning it.

This debate's pointless.

When it actually starts being announced, then I'll listen.

I wonder what the price difference would be between the 2-Disc DVD and 1 disc Blu-ray and the Blu-ray only set.. Would it be the price be the same as a 3-disc DVD with one disc being a digital copy? As much as I don't like Blu-ray, I'd rather them give me that then a digital copy. (Though preferably neither.)

@ajmrowland: I agree. There's no point debating this until it's announced. Otherwise we are just wasting our times arguing over "What ifs?"

Amazon has posted new cover art for the Blu-ray, and in my opinion, it looks even worse.

The DVD Artwork is still the same... Lucky DVD.

Horrible! Now the Prince is staring dreamily up at the witch!

Rather crowded. The Witch seems to be giving me the finger.
