a) Song of the South is not an animated feature any more than Mary Poppins was b) I keep telling you all it SUCKS (and not because of the Happy Slaves shit) and c) Nope, not in a million years will they release it and have the NAACP up in arms

Yesterday was my birthday, it would've been awesome if Aladdin was in Jungle Book's place as it's my favorite Disney movie but oh well lol.

But in addition to Aladdin, the one I'm looking forward to the most is Hercules. ESPECIALLY because the DVD is so awful in a letterboxed widescreen ratio.

I imported both from Germany on region free Blu-ray, and think they look/sound really nice. Bring on the package films/Black Cauldron, I say.

Until we get the blu for this every collection is incomplete.

The region free UK releases of both look and sound excellent on Blu-Ray.

My assumption is that, with the exception of Pinnochio, we will see the rest of them released this year. There aren't that many animated films left as you noted that have yet to be released, and at the rate Disney has been putting them out, we will easily see them this year.

There also isn't any Pixar film being released this year, so thats another title that Disney's films won't be competing for for customer's money.

What I can see though is Disney holding off for one more Diamond edition after Sleeping Beauty, in which they'd have to choose between Pinnochio, 101 Dalmatians, or Aladdin. Of those, I see Pinnochio getting a Diamond release.

I predict that the package films will be released in August (Make Mine Music, etc.) and a couple of the regular films will be released in June (Hercules, Tarzan, etc.)

The black Cauldron is a tricky one, and one I have no idea where they would place. Its one of the few titles I can see carrying over to the next year. If it comes out this year though, probably late september/early october.

Fun and Fancy free will probably be released on its own, due to Mickey being the draw. Ichabod and Mr. Toad will probably be its own release, around Halloween.

I've noted before that when you combine the U.S. & Europe, the only DACs not yet on BD either place are the six "package films" (Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Fun & Fancy Free, Melody Time, The Adventures of Ichabod & Mr. Toad) and The Black Cauldron, and some of those are available as HD downloads. I'm sure all those, plus the ones out in Europe but not here (101 Dalmatians, Aladdin, Hercules, Tarzan), will come out no later than spring 2016, even if there's three Diamonds to go after Sleeping Beauty (101, Aladdin, Pinocchio).

Apparently, a few years back Iger held a private screening to review it (if I recall, he hadn't ever actually seen it), and decided that it stays in the vault. I do give the guy credit for at least checking it out as a possibility, though.

As much as I feel it should be available, I do get why they don't and what a precarious situation it puts them in. Disney uses the characters in every theme park they have as walk-arounds, Splash Mountain (which is based on the film) is one of the headliner attractions in the three flagship parks (Disneyland, WDW, and Tokyo), and the only way Disney wouldn't get crucified by parents who pick it up for their kids is if they didn't put any of the characters on the cover and put it in a brown paper label that said Adults Only, LOL - which ain't never gunna happen. ;-)

It is a shame, it does have historical value - but I shu' nuff can't see no way 'round it.

Including international releases, there are only 6 movies from Walt Disney Animation Studio that haven't been released (or isn't confirmed)

Saludos Amigos
The Three Caballeros
Make Mine Music
Fun and Fancy Free
Melody Time
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad

Of those, I can only see Ichabod and Mr. Toad getting a BD release. All the ones released overseas (Tarzan, 101 dalmatians, Hercules, etc..) will eventually make their way here. It'll just take several years. They're all region free though so there's little point playing the waiting game with Disney.

Not surprising; as I said before, they all should be on BD no later than early 2016. I've suggested before that the package films could be bundled together for BD: Amigos/Caballeros (they've been bundled for DVD before), MMM/F&FF/MT, and Ichabod & Toad either alone or with TBC.

Yeah, I think that would be ideal, and an easier sell too.

I take it by "bundled together" you mean packaged in one unit for retail, right? If that's the case, I understand SA/TTC and MMM/F&FF/MT completely, but I&T/TBC?? If anything, the bundling could be broken further into simply MMM/F&FF and MT/I&T, with TBC standalone.

Do you think there's any chance we'll get more extras on Hercules than the UK did, or should I go ahead and import it? It might be my favorite Disney movie.

Just remembered 2 other classics, Honny I Shrunk/Blew Up The Kid,

Almost forgot bout it til I saw a preview of it on an old Vhs that I watched while on vacation, rather have Honey I Shrunk/Blew Up in a 2 Movie pack while We Shrunk Ourselves is released but most likely we'll get a 3 movie set *rolls eyes*


If we did receive a 2 movie collection of the Honey flims, I'd like to see a behind the scenes feature, Deleted Concept/Scenes and Audio Commentary for both films and (regrettably) toss in 2 episodes of Honey I Shrunk The TV Series
