Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Looks like they removed a handful of enrollment titles as well. I noticed that Castle in the Sky and Whisper of the Heart are now DVD only for enrollment, whereas the Blu-rays were also available previously. (Nausicaa still has both available, however.)

If anyone else like me was waitng for the Tigger Movie, Pocahontas 2 Pack, Rescuers 2-Pack, and Aristocats to become enrollments since Disney made the ridiculous decision to release them all on the same date, they're all available now. Time to cycle.

Great Mouse Detective, too. Wasn't showing up in their general blu-ray section, but showed up when I searched. I just opened a new account with most of these titles in the last 4-5 days.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Here is a link to a great post explaining the deal. Inside this is another link to a spreadsheet that has the BDs with enrollment numbers.

FYI, I got Bolt 3D and Pirates 4 3D as enrollments through a phone enrollment. Others are reporting Brave 3D and Up 3D Definitely YMMV.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
So Disney charged me for the Cinderella 2/3 and Secret Of The Wings monthly selection which I had declined, when I saw the charge I called them and told them to take it off and cancel the order. They did no problem, until today when the titles showed up. I haven't been charged again for them. Did I just get them for free or am I going to get charged again?

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
I just signed up for the first time, did it over the phone, and they processed my order and charged me the correct $21 and I have now logged into the site seeing the order listed and everything. If it ships and I actually receive what is listed here, how do you think I did?
Here are my initial selections...
-Brave 3D
-Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
-The Nightmare Before Christmas 3D
-The Rescuers: 35th Anniversary Edition
-The Secret World of Arrietty
-UP 3D
-Whisper of the Heart
I tried placing an order like this on the phone two different times last night, and while it seemed like they were going to process it for me each time, in the end right before the end they would give me the spiel about how 3D titles and things like that weren't allowed, and I would just tell them no thank you and that I'd have to call back later. Today I called one single time while here at work, and it worked out just fine.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
I have reading over at BD.com about ppl having success in getting the 3D titles as part of their enrollment. I have been thinking about signing up again myself. Most of the titles I want I can order online, but there are a couple that are either dvd only online or not available online yet.
Would love to get in on the 3D enrollments, but I think I own everything currently available.

Woohoo! My order just switched over from "On Hold" to "Processing" and I just got the "Welcome To Disney Movie Club!" email as well, and it has all of my titles listed as I ordered them, including my 3D selections!

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
The above has shipped, and I'll complete the membership terms getting 9 Blus for around $85 or so, and then do the membership a few more times to get everything else I want that I've missed out on.[/QUOTE]
My order showed up today!
In addition to the BDs, I got 8 DMR codes - one in each of the seven BDs of course, and then one tossed in with the other paperwork. I have no clue if that is normal or not. It also came with a cool Fantasia 3D lenticular card. I also bought Peter Pan at Walmart today for $11 with the figure, and got yet another DMR code in that.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Just to followup on my experience, if any of you are interested...
I completed my first membership today. My average price per BD was higher than what it could have been, but only because I decided to buy 3D titles as my commitments. In the end, I got the following for a total of $91.24, or an average of $10.14 a BD...
-Brave 3D
-Monsters Inc. 3D
-Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
-The Nightmare Before Christmas 3D
-The Rescuers: 35th Anniversary Edition
-The Secret World of Arrietty
-UP 3D
-Whisper of the Heart
-Wreck-It-Ralph 3D
In addition to the above, I also got this exclusive Dumbo plush for free for ordering two combo packs at the same time (MI3D and WIR3D, my commitment titles)...
So in the end I got five Disney 3DBD titles, three Studio Ghibli BDs, another Disney BD combo pack that goes for up to $30 on Amazon depending on the day, and the Dumbo plush for $91.24. Heck, if you count the plush in the average it ended up being $9.12 an item.
You can't beat that anywhere! I'll be canceling my membership once WIR shows up in the mail later this week, then signing up once again for another round.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Hell of a deal there with all those 3D titles considering the premium they charge at retail. I know it is extremely ymmv, but you got a steal getting those included in the first seven.
I re-signed up again last night. I put in an order for the following...
Aristocats
Pixar Short Films vol. 1
Pixar Short Films vol. 2
Treasure Planet
Pocahontas
Cinderella 2 & 3
Great Mouse Detective
Then ordered Monsters Inc 3D as my first selection.
I'll probably get the Studio Ghibli BDs with the next sign up. Forgot about the free Dumbo plush. I was contemplating adding Wreck It Ralph 3D as the other commitment but was holding off to see if BBY had any exclusives. have yet to see next weeks ad, but once I do I may call back and either add on WIR 3D or cancel MI3D and reorder both to try for the free plush. Not that big of a deal, but free is free and I plan on getting both of these 3D titles anyway.
I did not try to get in on any of the 3D titles in my first seven as I believe I own everything Disney 3D except Chicken Little. Not a lot of interest in that one so I did not try it.

I started a new membership several weeks ago with the idea of picking up a couple of preorder copies of Mulan as my commitments. No dice, they don't have it available in the club at all even though the release date is March 12th.
I suppose it will eventually become a "featured selection" at a much higher price. But last Fall every new release was available for pre-order for $24.95. Go figure.

Mulan is a second tier title, which is why it gets pushed out the door with Hunchback and Brother Bear. Last year when they released Aristocats, Rescuers, Pocohontas, etc. all on the same date, none of them were even in the club until months after they had been released.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Has anyone cycled an account recently? I cancelled a week ago Friday (2/22), and as of today, I can still log into the site (so presumably I can't start a new membership). Last time I cancelled, my account was gone the next day.

I signed back up on Monday and got a shipping notice for both orders(sign-up titles & a separate commitment title) on Thursday.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
They've been leaving accounts open for a while recently. They seem to go through cycles where they shut down every canceled account. I have one I canceled back in December that I can still log into.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Ok, so I was mistaken, but Were any of them offered at 24.95? I don't think they were. In my experience, only new from theaters releases and the teir 1 "From the Vault" titles get the 24.95 pre-order treatment.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Pocahontas was. Rescuers and Aristocats was a double feature, both for $39.95, but I think they were $29.95 each. So I would probably agree that their bigger titles tend to get the discount. Of course, Wreck-It Ralph only got discounted for the 3D version, which is kind of odd.

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
In theory, if you get the right CSR and if you have the item numbers, is is possible to get anything as an enrollment unless it's something blatant like a huge box set (including this latest batch of new releases), correct?

Re: Disney Blu-ray Club!
Yes. I feel you have the right to ask for anything as long as you understand they have the right to refuse. Have a long list ready in case they deny you anything.
