great news for Love Bug fans.
still waiting impatiently forThe Parent Trap (original) and Pollyanna, but it seems like there may indeed be reason to believe they will indeed make it to bd soon.

They're not officially announced yet/ info released by DMC, that's why

Can't understand this Disney Club thing!!
Don't they want to get more money by more customers?

OneWayFilms · 11-07-2014, 11:53 PM

I'm sure they are wanting to draw more people into their exclusive club by making exclusive offers for club members only. Since they are doing this, I'm actually considering becoming a member now. I would HATE for them to do this for The Parent Trap and the Witch Mountain movies and me not be able to buy them.

Yet, I wonder if they will be made available to the general public later?

This is basically their own Warner Archive/Twilight Time etc. model.

They realize that the customer base is too small to bother selling via third parties.

You're a member of BD.com. Make a friend with an American who is a Club Member.
