That's some nice artwork there.

The time has come!

Agent Kay · 10-06-2018, 09:24 AM

Why hide the artwork?

Hope it's better than the BD

Paul.R.S · 10-06-2018, 09:32 AM

Is The Lion King really gonna hit UHD BD before The Force Awakens?

Wonder how (much) long(er) it will take for them to get to Hollywood Pictures, Touchstone and Bruckheimer stuff. 20th anni for Enemy Of the State next month!

Omg that cover is gorgeous.

mysticwaterfall · 10-06-2018, 11:30 AM

I think that's the best cover TLK has ever had. Only thing that could make it better was if it were embossed and/or a motion cover where mufasa appears out of the clouds.

Definitely getting this, it would be a quadruple dip, but whatever. I'll probably sell my 3d version as I want really impressed with that. (Its better then TLM, but nowhere near as good as BB)

Have not watched this since a long, long time. Steelbook that I bought last year has not been utilized. Depends on my mood, whether I'll get this. Not one of the best animation, I've watched.

Already up for pre-order on Best Buy Canada. The cover picture in the first post is also the Canadian one. The US cover has a little bit different MA-banner.

I’ll be picking this up for the wife at Christmas.

Malagant · 10-06-2018, 12:51 PM

Lovely artwork. Possibly my favourite animated movie of all time. This 4K BD will definitely be mine.

Grain for a digitally animated movie?

Matt Murdock · 10-06-2018, 01:25 PM

That is probably my favorite cover from Disney since the Platinum Editions.

Isn't it shot on film?
Disney's animation is notorious for their excessive use of DNR on the BDs.

Lion King was digitally rendered with the CAPS System at 2K Resolution
