Yeah, the promo is in there.

Undoubtedly a double-dip for me.

Terrific news ... and a very sharp looking cover.

Slowpc · 10-05-06, 11:21 AM

Now I have a date to give to everyone looking for that release. Thank you

FantasticVSDoom · 10-05-06, 11:32 AM

Aww, Disney my heroin.. Of course I will double dip on this, and hopefully there will be the announcement that Disney will also release on HD-DVD...

ceeece · 10-05-06, 11:40 AM

Looking forward to picking this up. I have never seen it all the way through. I have been picking up all the Platinum editions.

Disney will only release this on Bluray. HD-DVD will be dead by then.

HD-DVD will be dead by 3/6/2007? You should let the folks in HD Talk know this. I'm sure Toshiba and Microsoft would also be very interested in your analysis of the market.

I just saw a story on CNN about Barrie's Peter Pan going into the public domain next year (and the adverse effect that may have on a children's hospital which has been supported for years by its royalties.) I'm wondering if that is why Disney moved this title up on their Platinum release schedule...

Not likely, this is a cross-promotion with some CG Tinkerbell movie they're doing.

Sabrett · 10-05-06, 05:25 PM

Not my favorite Disney movie, but I have all the other Platinum Editions, so I'll pick this one up too

dpz301 · 10-05-06, 07:32 PM

starting to collect the platinum editions and really like this movie. probably one of my favorites.

I sense a Blurryray fanboy here, but that is okay. We'll forgive your misgivings.

Regardless, I welcome this as a Platinum release....

Wick · 10-05-06, 07:57 PM

This is one of my favourite Disney movies. I will definitely be getting it.

I know they do this for every PE, but I don't see it being discussed, so...

I was at the Disney Store yesterday and I preordered Peter Pan for $19.99 and got four (really nice) lithographs. I didn't see it on their website yet, but if you don't want to pay shipping, stop in your local Disney Store...

Cameron · 01-14-07, 09:14 PM

no ill will meant, just seems that it should all go in the main thread as opposed to starting a new one just for the lithographs.

Fok · 01-14-07, 10:56 PM

Even if this was released on HD or BR, would it really make a difference as the film is quite old

Well, some of the best HD-DVDs out there are of older films...I've watched Casablanca twice already since getting it and it looks outstanding in HD.

LorenzoL · 01-15-07, 07:54 AM

Since I don't have the previous versions, this is a must buy for me.
