I will be buying all of the Platinum Edition Blu-rays this time around... I made the mistake of not doing this with the DVDs, and am still missing Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, and Lady & the Tramp.

This looks like a nice release. I haven't seen Pinocchio in at least a decade.

Re: Pinocchio 70th Anniversary Platinum Edition - Spring 2009
on the scene captures - what's that on the side of the image?!? "wood" borders?
I was busy looking at the images, here's the explanation:
"A double wow i must give to the special art designed to fill the black bars on the right and left side of the screen, as this movie 's ratio is 4:3 - it adds so much and fits amazingly with the film (its a choice to view the art, you can play the film with the black bars as well if you wish) "

One of the posters on ultimate disney said it was 1978 when it was released then, and that has to be when I saw it. I never owned the vhs or the gold collection DVD. So it will be 31 years since I have seen it. Can't wait to watch this with my son.
