If this is right I wont be buying anymore Disney DVDs ever again! I hate when they start a collection and stop it half way! My whole disney collection is so uneven! it's starting to make me mad to the point where i wont purchase them anymore till the management at the place keeps their movies consistant! Platinum Ed. and 2 Disc Set have nothing to do with the Alamo bombing. what Tea Party fiasco?

Is this some kind of prank?
I don't want Diseny to push back the Platium Edition.
Chaning Aladdin to 2-Disc Limited Collector's Special Edition.
What the @#$^& Michael Eisner!!!
What do you think you are doing to DVD collectors!!!
At least I have most on VHS. :roll:

Is this a joke Luke? :?
"You fell for it didn't you?" :?
Like what Timon said in The Lion King " What's going on here?"

Could Jack and SnackPack be the same :roll:

I was a little mad when I read what Jack wrote, but then I got so many error messages opening the page that the first thing I checked out was the url.

You are lucky that Luke did not see this yet, then you would be baned for life. :lol: (just kidding)

AHHH!! The pop-ups of DOOM!! O_O

Yeesh - I got more annoyed with the pop-ups at that site than the hoax article. Bleah... >:-P

But otherwise, good one, Jack! ^_^

:roll: It didn't get me nor entertain me. When it said Welcome, SnackPack at the top, I knew it was a trick. I am glad I didn't get duped into believing this silly hoax. It would have been more entertaining if it were favorable news, such as "Disney plans to release all Platinum Editions by March 2005". So when the hoax was revealed, it would be more funny and less irritating. Just my $0.02

Well I realized it was fake when I saw that the URL was for an Angelfire page. Now I'm going to actually read the article. :P
