New Disney titles for 2012 (Rescuers Aristocats Pocahontas etc.) !

[mmcvey]

The only thing I don't like about the combo pack for the the two Rescuers movies is that I have all the Disney animated features (no direct to video) lined up on a shelf chronologically and a combo pack just messes me all up.

I actually replaced my Fantasia combo pack with seperate Italian releases for this reason. Hopefully I'll be able to get seperate releases for the Rescuers films as well.

[bookcase]

I loved both Rescuers movies, which were both released theatrically if I recall correctly. The sequel definitely kept the quality of an original release. I couldn't care less for the other sequels. And although I'm glad Aladdin is finally slated for release, I'm disappointed that it's so far off.

snow white/ batb
Bambi/ The Lion King
Latt/ Cindy
Peter Pan/ Aladdin
The Jungle Book / The Little Mermaid
etc.
etc.

Cinderella and LatT are only 5 years apart man
so you're assuming the Little Mermaid will make its debut on BD (at least) 18 months after its theatrical run? it doesn't make sense, from a business' standpoint

I'm glad to get confirmation of Aladdin and VERY pleasantly surprised to see it back in the Diamond Collection series, even if I do wish they'd scheduled it for this year.

I'm not a fan of the other films confirmed, which to me vary from 'meh' (The Rescuers) to true dislike (Aristocats). However, I've yet to watch The Rescuers Down Under again to form an opinion. Didn't see many times when I was a kid.

Gotta say, my only disappointment with this list of titles is the lack of Mulan in the foreseeable future. Hopefully 2013 will see it (and perhaps The Emperor's New Groove too?) released at some point.

This is great news!

Aladdin, Aristocats and Rescuers (both of them) for sure!

Pocahontas too, I just wish I didn't have to get the crappy sequel (just like with Fox and the Hound).

true. 2013-2014 are shaping up to be the "leftover" BD releases

[Caesar Will Rise]

I'll admit it. I much prefer Rescuers Down Under to The Rescuers. I also prefer Pocahontas to Pocahontas II. However, it can't be bad thing to get both in one convenient package. Now, what's the bet that Disney ends up delaying some of these like they did with Dumbo?

[Donat96]

Definitely getting The Rescuers

[punkguy03]

Sweet Aladdin! I hope they also release the sequels as well.

Wonder when The Little Mermaid will come out, it comes out in 3d in theaters Sept. 2013 (I believe). So, hopefully around there.

Haha I noticed that was the only flaw, but i didn't mean what part of the year they would be released, so TLM could get a release as the spring of the following year. It seems they changed the new movie from October to spring. Maybe the pattern is just silly but i thought it was kind of true, and to that i know they like releasing the FAB 4 seperately and not so close together.

EDIT. At this point i feel like this is all of disney's releases this year besides nov. and dec.

[Coveragentcov]

great list! Would love to get almost all of them. However not a fan of Pocahontas 2 and Aristocats.

[roxyv]

Pocahontas should have a stand alone release, just like The Fox and the Hound...it's an insult to these 2 movies that are considered classics. If they have to do these they should have it as a bonus feature and not put it in the cover. imho

Just like the Lion King sequels, they're separate...

[disneyfreak]

Does that mean that we can see a release of Aladdin in other countrys potentially this year?

I agree, however The Lion King was much bigger overall. They know they can make more money off of it, so they did. I am assuming it also has something to do with being part of the Diamond Collection as to why it was individually released.

For some reason, I am most anticipating The Great Mouse Detective out of ALL potential Disney Blu-ray releases! I'm afraid it might be a year or two before we see it, though.

Every single Diamond Edition has had seperate releases and my assumption would be they will all have a individual release.

would make sense for it to be the winter 2013 BR release months after the cinema release, like they did with The Lion King

[P@t_Mtl]

I will be getting Aladdin and The Rescuers double set. The rest I have no interest in them. I would buy the double set of Mulan if they were to make one however

[zackisthewalrus]

WOW! This is also coming off of a post last night that "The Tigger Movie" might be coming (hopefully with "The Many Adventures..." alongside it). My wallet is gonna be empty! Haha

[Pyoko]

I don't mind the Rescuers and Fantasia combo packs that much since with those both movies are classics. But bundling them up with cheapquels...
