Disney's "Earth"

[BluLuzzo]

I was watching the new Narnia and seen a preview for Disney-nature Earth film. This looks absolutely fantastic. Set for an Earth Day release.. 4/22/09

I normally don't like Documentaries but this is a must, both in Theaters and Blu-Ray.

It would be, if I hadn't already seen all the footage in the BBC Planet Earth series...

It does look similar but maybe Disney has something more up its sleeve for this release. It looks spectacular though.

I think it's just cobbled together out of footage from the Planet Earth series. If you've got the Planet Earth Blu-Ray, you've seen this already...sort of.

It's just a pared-down version of Planet Earth. The elephants, the polar bears and the whales are the central "characters" of this film, all of whose stories we've already seen in Planet Earth.

I seriously doubt there's anything new to be had from this release. I commend Disney for bringing something like this to the big-screen, I just wish it had been original footage.

who knows. it's not out yet so we can't say what it is exactly. we'll just have to wait and see.

Earth has already been released outside the US, and indeed is available on DVD in the UK (but not on Blu-ray IIRC). I believe that it does have some "new" footage, but nothing major and the bulk if footage already used in Planet Earth.

It does however had new narration and (in the UK at least) a slightly different edit.

Correction: I see Lionsgate have released Earth on Blu-ray in the UK, and according to Liesinc, it's region free too.

this will be released 9/1, is this the only post for it or Galdiator/Braveheart gets all attention

or having BBC Planet Earth will downgrade this one as not worth it??

but UK pics do not show Disney logo, UK title is £ 6.98 Euros and Disney title @ amz is $26.99 USD

yes this does look like it going to be good.

I'm looking forward to Disneynature's future projects:

Crews will spend three years in the Ivory Coast jungle to prepare “Chimpanzee,” to be released in 2012. “Oceans,” set for a 2010 release, will rely on new technology to film underwater drama with precision.
