ABC Family Disney Animation Marathon

Right now, they're showing Hercules, and on ABC Family HD, it's in Hi-Def. It looks beautiful. I'm hoping we get non-Diamond Blu releases next year. Up next is Aladdin, which has been rumored for February release, and then Pinocchio, which is out.

Anyone else watching?

Not me, watching a blu, you're making me want to watch Pinocchio again though.

This was the first time that Hercules was broadcast in full HD.

Disney Channel HD's broadcasts of Hercules were the 1.33:1 modifed version upconverted to 720p.

Aladdin looked amazing in 1080, wow can't wait for the 90's movies to get released,(Beauty and the beast, Aladdin, Lion King, Tarzan) I think Beauty and the Beast is set for a release next year.

It was actually 720p HD.

ABC HD, ABC Family HD, ESPN HD, ESPN 2 HD, Disney Channel HD, and Disney XD HD all broadcast at 720p.

Hercules looked excellent in 720p. I only wished that Fox created a new HD master for The Sound of Music. The one being used now looks like a 480p upconverted to 720p.

Agree, but I'd still rather watch a HD broadcast than DVD upconvert. Too bad I don't get this channel in HD.
