This is also welcome news. The current DVD stinks. I will be so happy to dispose of (or sell) it when this comes out.
Now bring on El Dorado, Sinbad, Over the Hedge and
Shark Tale.

I want a Blu-ray release of The Road to El Dorado, Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, and Joseph: King of Dreams.

Oh! I forgot Joseph because it was DTV and I haven’t yet seen it. Sotiris, do you know whether it was animated in-house at DreamWorks or whether they outsourced the animation, as the film was, I expect, a lower budget production?
In any case, if it ever comes out on blu I will get it.

I don't understand what's the hold-up with those titles. They have already remastered them in HD. They were included in the
33-film Blu-ray box set they gave to their staff on the occasion of their acquisition by Comcast.

How come you never watched it? I recommend it, if you care about my opinion. Even though it's obviously not as good as The Prince of Egypt, its production values are higher than the average Disney DTV. The animation was outsourced to Bardel Animation (now Bardel Entertainment) in Canada.
