Hnngh. Well, I guess I'll be getting that as opposed to getting it from the Amazon.

The B&B "Ironpack" looks nice but when did Steelbook become Ironpack?

NiCK Crush

They are two different things. Disney decided to go with IronPaks this year rather than SteelBooks.

Here is a thread explaining the difference.

So basically it's the same goddamn thing.

NiCK Crush

Extremely similar, yes. Kind of a Coke/Pepsi, Burger King/McDonald's thing.

Kory

They're very similar, but not the same. The insert inside is designed differently, the spine is smaller from top to bottom, and they seem to be made of cheaper materials. I may pick this up, but I'm not sold on it yet.

$7.50 deposit. Was Up that pricey as well? It would be nice to just drop $5 for the IP.

interestingly a sing along version of 'Beauty and the Beast' is being presented in theaters as a Fathom Event September 29th and October 2nd:

Looks great.

If I remember correctly UP was $7.50 even though the ad said in the fine print it was $5

Snow white was $7.50

Lord of the Rings was $5

This is it... I wanna say $5 but maybe it was $7.50 also

iNCREDiPiNOY

All disney pre-orders was $7.50, non-disney was $5. plain and simple.

Michael Corvin

Cool. Thanks guys.

oops

The Monkees

That Fantasia BD set sounds pretty lackluster. What happened to the 1 hour making of on the first film? And all the special features from the 2nd film? This sounds pretty disappointing to me.

Anubis2005X

It all got moved to BD Live or something...

horroru

...and the third disc of extras from the original box set? As seems to be a trend, I'll need to hold on to the original DVD set and pick this Blu set up only for the HD transfer. Would have been nice just to replace my DVD set.....

E Unit

Now this is interesting. According to digitabits, all of the extras on the previous DVD's will be included. Here's his breakdown:

Fantasia DVD Bonus Features:

-New Audio Commentary with Disney historian Brian Sibley

-Disney Family Museum (running time: approx. 5 minutes) - Walt's daughter Diane Disney-Miller takes viewers on a tour of the new Disney Family Museum in San Francisco, California featuring a very large exhibit on Fantasia and most importantly, the Schultheis notebook with long lost Fantasia production notes found in more recent years in the walls of a convent.

Fantasia Blu-ray Bonus Features:

Everything on the DVD plus:

-Disney View - This viewing mode maximizes the Blu-ray viewing experience with a 16 x 9 aspect ratio. Original artwork created by a Disney artist, in a style that complements the beauty of the film.

-The Shultheis Notebook: A Disney Treasure (running time: approx. 14 minutes) - An in depth look at the recently discovered Schultheis Notebook. The detailed log was created by Herman Schultheis, an effects man on Fantasia, and intricately breaks down the film from a technical view. Many of the special effects used in Fantasia were a mystery to modern day animators until this notebook was recovered.

-Interactive Art Gallery and Screensavers - Viewers can explore the artwork of Fantasia as never before, in HD resolution with unique Blu-ray interactivity and programming.

-Audio Commentaries from Fantasia Legacy Collection: With executive producer Roy E. Disney, conductor James Levine, animation historian John Canemaker, and Scott McQueen, manager of film restoration. Audio commentary with interviews and story note recreations by Walt Disney, hosted by John Canemaker.

Fantasia 2000 DVD Bonus Features:

-Musicana: Walt's Inspiration for a Sequel (running time: approx. 10 minutes) - This documentary reveals rarely-seen art created for Musicana, a late 1970's project intended as a Fantasia sequel with a focus on exploring other cultures via their greatest musical compositions. Viewers are offered a look at the origins of pieces that were started by Walt, such as "The Emperor and the Nightingale" which was then taken over by a very young John Lasseter. Ultimately, Musicana was stopped to begin production on Mickey's Christmas Carol, but the memories of this piece still live on with the animators who conceived it.

Fantasia 2000 Blu-ray Bonus Features:

Everything on the DVD plus:

-Dali & Disney: A Date With Destino (running time: 82 minutes) - This feature length documentary explores the collaborative relationship between Walt Disney and Salvador Dali, revealing how and why the Destino short came to fruition under the lead of Roy E. Disney in 2003 so many years after its inception in 1946.

-Destino (running time: approx. 7 minutes) - The legacy of Walt Disney and Salvador Dali lives on in this highly anticipated short film.

-Disney's Virtual Vault -- BD-Live Feature

-Original DVD Bonus Features from Legacy Collection

-Audio Commentaries from Fantasia Legacy Collection (total running time: 84 minutes): With executive producer Roy E. Disney, conductor James Levine, and producer Don Ernst. Audio commentary with the directors and art directors for each segment.

Or use 10% coupon for $6.75 deposit to make it sweeter. I've done it last year with the UP steelbook.

Skoobooz

I don't think it was formatted correctly...here's what that listing looks like at The Digital Fix:

# Disney’s Virtual Vault -- BD-Live Feature

* Original DVD Bonus Features from Legacy Collection

So the Original DVD Bonus Features are still a subset of the Virtual Vault via BD-Live.

The Valeyard

I think when it says "Everything on the DVD plus," they're talking about the DVD that comes with the Blu-Ray.

Giles

not implementing 'Cine-explore' on the Fantasia films/blus seems like a lost opportunity
