Which Disney Animated Features are you waiting for the most? - Blu-ray Forum

cinemaphile · 11-09-2010, 05:48 PM

With The Incredibles announced, all the Pixar films except Nemo have been released, so it's safe to assume that one will be along by 2012 at the latest.

Disney's traditional animated classics are slowly, slooooooowwwly getting released on Blu, but at this rate I'm afraid by the time they get to many of the ones I want, BD will be dead. We know of Bambi, Lion King, Alice in Wonderland, and Dumbo for 2011. But which ones yet to be announced/released are you most anticipating?

For me, in order of most wanted, it's:

Aladdin
Mulan (and Mulan II for that matter, a pretty decent DTV sequel)
Tarzan
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Little Mermaid
Hercules

Mulan, Tarzan, and Hunchback I think are 3 of the most underrated of the classics. IMHO they are FAR better than the old boring ones like Cinderella, Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, etc...

Dumbo
Cinderella (1950)
Peter Pan (1953)
Lady and the Tramp (1955)
101 Dalmatians (1961)
The Jungle Book (1967)
The Little Mermaid (1989)
Aladdin

All of them, there's no most for me.

I don't mind the way Disney release their films, because I think it all adds to the excitment of collecting each one as they come and it means you want to buy them as soon as they come out.

Dumbo, Aladdin, Lion King, and all the Pixar films.

Deadset · 11-09-2010, 06:10 PM

Give me:

The Black Cauldron
Sword in the Stone
Aladdin

and I'll be

That would be fine, if there weren't 30-odd films waiting for release. At their current rate of around 4 a year, we're looking at 8 years to get to them all. Who knows if blu will still be around and going strong in 8 years?!

planetkori · 11-09-2010, 06:26 PM

Song of the South
Cinderella
Peter Pan
Great Mouse Detective
Little Mermaid
Aladdin
Tarzan
Hercules
Hunchback of notre dame

I'm waiting for Lilo & Stitch, I don't understand why they didn't release it on Blu when it was re-released on DVD alongside Bolt.

bookcase · 11-09-2010, 06:37 PM

Aladdin and Little Mermaid are my two favorites I can't wait to see on Blu.

HD Goofnut · 11-09-2010, 06:39 PM

Robin Hood
Alice in Wonderland (coming in February)
Aladdin

Those are definitely my top 3.

They should have piggybacked that when Dreamworks released How To Train Your Dragon. Not only is it by the same creator, but there are definite similarites between Toothless and Stitch.
(Of course, by this same rationale, I wish WB would release The Iron Giant to coincide with Brad Bird's The Incredibles)

Batman1980 · 11-11-2010, 07:05 PM

Pretty much all of the 80s, 90s and 2000s animated films, really. I guess I have a particular attachment to them because I was growing up during those years.

awamichael · 11-12-2010, 02:13 PM

I'm eagerly awaiting them all, but..........

Pocahontas
Cinderella
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Mulan
Jungle Book
101 Dalmatians
Song of the South
Aladdin
Dumbo
Lady and the Tramp
Mary Poppins (i know, live action..but...)
Lilo and Stitch
Peter Pan...
okay, okay...all the rest.....

So what? Doesn't mean we get less enjoyment out of them just because they are so different from the original stories.

It's all about Adaptation Decay. Same goes for the ONLY anime I want to own on Blu-ray.
