I'm a little dissapointed that R2 are only getting a "Special Edition" of Lady and the Tramp and R1 are getting a "2 Disc Special Edition", the same thing happened with Alice in Wonderland. It's not fair! :roll:

Yeah, it wouldn't make any sense if they released a 1 disc platinum, then all the other UK platinums have been 2 disc.

Where did you hear this from Nick? :?

Im guessing just because they called it a special edition and didnt say 2 disc, he got confused perhaps? :)

I wouldn't be surprised if there are two releases.

A 1-disc with the film in Fullscreen format and 2-disc with Widescreen format since the film is in Cinemascope.

Lady in the tramp will be issued in the UK as a 2 disc special edition on February 13th 2006.

let all 1 disc rumours be laid to rest.

Once again Super Ichabod flies to the rescue! ;)

Well, all the platinum editions in Norway has been 2-discs, except Cinderella, which looks like it will be a 1-disc release.

That's a shame as the only bonus you'll probably get is how Cinderella influenced American Sports.

Even though I hated the fact of Cinderella being only 1-disc I've to slightly take my words back, because it seems to have most of the important extras as included in the 2-disc version. Of course, I don't feel happy that this is the only choice since all of the previous PE's been 2-disc (except Beauty and The Beast which did actually get the beautiful red covered DVD digipack, but it wasn't sold everywhere in Finland). I can live with this, but please BV say this is an exception and that the upcoming PE's will stay as 2-discs (I couldn't stand the idea of Lady and the Tramp or the Little Mermaid being only one disc, really).

I don't understand how Disney can release a 1-disc platinum? I mean Rolkie you said you got 'most' of the important features that the US 2 disc had, but i think thats nasty....you should've gotten the exact same as the US version, in the end your money is just as valuable as the dollar or pound so why are Disney trying to get away with it? :evil:

Well, the Platinum Editions aren't called that way in Europe, I think. At least not in The Netherlands. They're all called Special Editions. The Netherlands did get two versions of Cinderella, a 1-disc and a 2-disc. The 1-disc doesn't include the ESNP Classic featurette. We did get a 1-disc of Snow White, but the others are all 2-disc.

Yeah, i live in the UK, and we get Special edition as well, but i said Platinum, because there are also other special edition titles, so i thought it'd stop some confusion. :oops: It'd be okay if, like you said, there are 1 and 2 disc editions, but i just can't see why America would, like with the UK AIW, leave off features for no reason at all. :?

The release is a half-way release so that's why I would like to put my money on the 100% release instead of this, but my options to that are small and I find the extras in the 1-disc PE good enough to make me buy it. If someone knows why they release a 2-disc release in a European country but not in the other, and some countries have even got both versions, then please tell me.

No, that feature has been axed. Appearantly, the disc contains the movie, some games and some brief making-of features.

It's definitely a 2 disc in the UK, but as for the other countries, nobody knows at present.

I hope we get a 2-disc in Holland too... we had a 2-disc with Cinderella, so there is hope!
