Anyone Noticed the Sleeping Beauty Trailer on Blu - Blu-ray Forum

With the Rattatouille. I must say it looks amazing, yes it is old school, but i was really impressed on good it looked. Cant wait for next year.

The specific title-related one, or the one with Merriweather wanding "Make it Blu!"?

(Seen the latter; it's for all their disks, and it's been out since the Cars SD.)

The specific title-related one is on the beginning of Ratatouille, and it looks spectacular.

Can't wait to see it. Thought I'd at least pop the Rat disc in for a few minutes last night but it ended up being all about Cars.

fall 2008 is a long wait... looks good though

My wife and I thought it looked like it needed cleaned up some more. I'm sure it will look great by the release date.

I am thinking that the reason this is the first title to be released on Blu-ray is because of its detail. The argument that upscaled DVD is just as good as Hi Def will not work for this title. I stole this from IMDB.

The elaborate background paintings usually took seven to ten days to paint. By contrast, a typical animation background takes one workday to complete.

For anyone who has seen this movie knows what I am talking about. the backgrounds were inspired by medieval tapestries.

Hopefully Disney will release another Pixar movie on BD before the fall of 08, but we will probably be lucky to get another with the release of wall E next fall.

This was painstakingly computer restored just a few years ago. I don't think they are going to do any more restoration on the film. Personally I thought the DVD looked great.

The trailer was so impressive to my father in-law (I got him a PS3 for his birthday) he asked me what the resolution for BR was... I was like, uh, I think it's 6 times better than a DVD. Then screen text pops up 6 TIMES THE RESOLUTION OF DVD or something. At that point he was ready to replace his movie collection

Nemo is scheduled i believe to come out next year also!!

BLackie · 11-07-2007, 06:56 PM

I had the same reaction. I need to watch it again. There was one point where they had a side-by-side comparison of restoration and original and the restoration looked good, but the rest of the scenes looked disappointing.

Watch the trailer again. There are scenes with noticeable blemishes on the film. I guess it just didn't look like it was on par with Snow White and other platinum releases. Do you think its possible the increased resolution is making these blemishes more noticeable?

I realize this is an old film and its bound to have some rough spots. We were probably both being extra picky because our jaws were still on the floor after seeing Cars!

I'm still looking forward to this release.

I was a little confused by that also. The right side (the restored side) was very stable in that shot and I was trying to figure out if the other stuff they were showing us was all pretty much as it will look, or if they were saying they were going to do more work on it like the side-by-side.

Also, I noticed they mentioned something called Tinkerbell coming to DVD and Blu-ray next fall. Looked like it was a straight to video thing.

I was confused as in some scenes, the color looked off (the red fairy had no color to her)

There was a featurette on Warner restoring the Bugs Bunny SD shorts, where they pointed out that the transfers were now so good, you could see dust specks on the original cels...
Which brought up the ethical question--Would it be "restoration" to remove them, or leave them in?

Yup. They've said next fall but...well, the date I see has it in March, so here's hoping.

rjg · 11-07-2007, 09:23 PM

If Disney has a good marketing campaign for Nemo, it will probably sell has big has Ratattouille.

ryoohki · 11-07-2007, 10:23 PM

When you can see paint brush stroke, it mean then done their job.

I mean on Transformers BluRay (Anime 1986) you can see every single dust trapped agaisnt the multiple layer of cel actually moves in some scenes. YOu can see brush stokes on Background art...

Interesting, I thought Lassetter scuttled that.

Though since Disney has spent 45million on it, they must've wanted to salvage SOMETHING . Apparently it was beyond abysmal
