Thanks for the amazon coupon. Went ahead and cancelled my old order and re-ordered it. $15, not bad at all!

Since you already paid $7 for the Steelbook wouldn't we better off trying to use the $10 Disney coupon at Best Buy?

Anyone interested in packaging pictures?

Lame.
This means that the Snow White Blu-ray omits components from the original 2001 DVD - lots of components, as a matter of fact. We lose a documentary called “Still the Fairest of Them All: The Making of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”, a version of “Someday My Prince Will Come” from Barbra Streisand, storyboard to film comparisons, text production notes, additional deleted scenes, vintage radio programs and a few other elements.
Why did the Blu-ray – touted as the definitive Snow White - drop so much material? I have no idea. These aren’t minor cuts; it’s not like the Blu-ray just cut out some silly games or ads. The 2001 DVD offered a treasure trove of information, and the Blu-ray – while packed with good material - doesn’t equal the same level.
That’s a shame. This Blu-ray could have offered the Snow White to beat all other Snow Whites, but the absence of so much pre-existing bonus materials means it falls short of expectations.

Ouch. Well, I guess it insures Disney there will be less used copies of the 2001 DVD floating around because fans of the film would have to keep it.

You're right, the Blu-ray only has 85 hours of supplements, when it clearly should have 85 1/2 hours of supplements. This is unnaceptable!!!!1!!11!!!1!!! Everybody, grab your pitchforks and follow me!!!

No shit. I doubt I'll go over every extra, much less be able to really tell what got left out. But damn, I thought people would be happy it's not tainted with Barbara Streisand. Bummer about the documentary though.

Okay I am confused, this came in at work today, but it was in two packages, one in a bluray case with 2 blurays and the 1 dvd. Then in a dvd case saying the exact same thing. 1 dvd, and 2 blurays. Both sets have the exact same features. Could someone explain this to me?

Forgive my stupidity because I missed that discussion. Is the issue that there's only one disc configuration but they're selling some in standard DVD cases to not scare off non-BD users with a blue case? But they're still charging the same amount?

Disney likes money. Is this new to anyone?
