FRY: Why couldn't she be the other kind of mermaid, with the fish part on the top, and the lady part on the bottom...?!

Same here. Hopefully that will be the final cover art with a lenticular/embossed slipcover

It's Disney, if it doesn't then you know something's wrong!

Well this 3D is going to be tricky to make because there are no CAPS files to work with. instead they will have to use the original Camera Negative even though a few scenes were done in CAPS.

SwaggerJagger · 01-07-2013, 02:17 AM

that Disney Movie Rewards logo is ruining the cover, wish it wasn't there.

Fortunately they tested CAPS on this movie. I have little doubt because this was Disney's last animated negative on "film"

I have to agree on that as well. As of now Im thinking of going with the 2D Standard version for two big reasons:

First, title is centered and not vertically to the left. Second, there is no zoom done unlike with the 3D cover.

2D cover: FTW!

3D cover:

FYI. It's just a fanart from 2010 that someone upload to the database, not official at all.

Serch83 · 01-07-2013, 06:07 AM

that 3D cover in lenticular would be amazing!

Disney used the same artwork for the Japanese Laserdisc release of The Little Mermaid back in 1998. Disney usually creates new covers for the Diamond Edition Blu-Ray Releases, for this one I think it is nice that they are using the artwork from one of the theatrical posters.

Not to go off topic, Lady And The Tramp is the only other Diamond Edition Blu-Ray to use existing artwork. Disney made that Cover by copying and pasting from the 2006 Platinum Edition DVD Cover.

I thought it was just one shot, not "scenes".

all i know is that Mermaid was the last animated Film to Use Cels.

solarrdadd · 01-07-2013, 02:38 PM

well, since we probably wong be seeing a metal pack case for this perhaps we'll be seeing a steelbook case for it. i just hope they continue the collectors cases be it metal or steel as well as a lunchbox. oh yeah, and a target digibook too!

SpaceDog · 01-07-2013, 02:46 PM

Definitely in my top 5 for Disney films. I can't wait to get it.

[Show spoiler]

If its not official its very close to what Disney already has planned for the 2D cover. Which should be a duplicate of the 3D except without the word "3D" and without a lenticular front cover.
