Disney's Beauty & The Beast: New DVD AND possible 3D screening.

Lovely packaging! I quickly tested them out (in a bid of hope that the blu-ray MIGHT work in my standard old DVD player but no)..the normal DVD is slightly more HQ and has been restored for sure.

The extras look great, i'll review properly later! :)
 
I LOVE this film. Easily my favourite Disney.

I do hope when they re-release it they include the song "Human Again" as they did with the DVD. It fits in pefectly with the original film and it was a tribute to one of the makers of the film, who died just before they released the DVD.
 
Until Up (2009), it was the only animation EVER to be nominated for Best Picture, and I suppose still is the only hand-drawn animated film to be nominated.
Now that's special.

I wonder how much my Lion King DVD is worth?
 
my favourite film of all time. still have the video from when i was like 2 years old lol. the packaging is very damaged but the video still works. so cant wait to get the blu ray. that will be my first blu ray purchase and it is definately worth it
 
It was meant to be out on Bluray this year, but I checked in the local Disney Store and he said it's been postponed till next year. But Amazon says differently?
 
Yeah i think they will include 'human again'- i loved that. Also the movie is only 70 minutes so i think they should keep it in to long it out. I love that song and of course the classic we all know and love.

I hope there are lots of special features too (which i'm sure there will be) because i'd love to see stuff like original trailers etc.

BTW does anyone remember the show in london? the musical? I saw it twice (from what i can remember) that was so magical.
 
No it's the UK edition :) If you pre-order a week or more in advance from Amazon/Woolworths (the two best ones I find) they dispatch it on the Thursday or something..usually means you get it by Saturday :)
 
It's my favourite disney film by a mile. Good meaning and lovely animation :)

Plus, anyone notice in 'hunchback of notre dame' Belle walking past reading her book?
 
Yeah, also the US versions are all available now too so it's good that they made them region free. I still best wait for the UK one though, as it's on pre-order :D
 
I'm not interested in seeing B&TB in 3D at all. If that delays the blu-ray release I'm going to be a bit angry really.

The Lion King trailer looks lovely too. HD seems to be doing even more for picture quality then it does for digital films.
 
Disney's best feature film IMO. I have the special edition DVD they released in 2002 (?), but I'll definitely be getting the Blu-ray.
 
Just watched it. Loved it loved it loved it. Obviously i've seen it countless times when i was younger but it's such a classic-you cannot get bored of it.

I absoloutly love the ending scene (known as 'transformation') the ending image of the stained glass window of the Prince & Belle is stunning, always have loved that.

Unfortunatly I cannot comment on the 'blu-ray experience' as I still don't have a blu-ray player! The 'special features' disc is for blu-ray play only so I can't watch them (yet) unfortunatly! I'm not too gutted as I half expected that. The diamond edition comes with 3 discs, One of the movie in blu ray, the other disc titled 'feature' (which is for normal DVD players) and the final disc being the special features. The special features on the DVD for standard DVD players doesn't include nothing special sadly (well, sadly for me) just a sing-a-long and some other things...the blu-ray contains so much more.

Overall, despite the fact I am slightly let down at the fact the DVD is practically screaming 'buy a blu-ray player' I am now disappointed one bit. I loved the movie when I was young and am glad to have it for keeps now. I love the scene ('human again') where the big wardrobe does a dive off the castle and into the fountain :p

Also, according to someone on the net (various other sites have said this too) 'the enchanted christmas' (which is released later this month) is set inbetween 'something there' and 'human again' scenes. :) Hope i helped! :)
