You know, that sucks. I bought that movie just a year ago and (I know, not one of Disney's best but) I don't like that it's non-anamorphic.zackisthewalrus wrote:Beginning in October Disney will release Hocus Pocus

The only concern I have with these releases, and a reason I ultimately don't see myself rushing out to buy many, is that Disney will put little if any effort into them. Granted, a film like Treasure Planet, which is digital and had a huge slew of bonus features on a previous release, isn't much cause for concern. However, I think it's safe to say few if any bonus features will be newly produced for these (or newly sourced from the vault, i.e. Disney anthology series material), and I predict ithe likes of Babes in Toyland will probably look pretty mediocre. I can also imagine Brother Bear II and even Atlantis: Milo's Return being bundled with the first movies. Will Disney realise the sequels are well worth burying?
None the less, it's good to know that Disney really is putting out a lot of their back catalogue in HD, especially with regards to the live-action back catalogue and the lesser or mid-range animated films. With regards to the types of films they're reissuing, and in light of the fact that so many are "anniversary editions", I predict that the policy will make Robin Hood and The Sword in the Stone shoe-ins for next year at least.

I've continued to say 2012 was going to be a good year for Disney DVD/ Blu-ray releases. When you think about how on top of this list there may be some animated shows released later (Gargoyles, The Tick) and of course more Generations Collection and DMC Exclusives released, there will be plenty of titles for Disney fans to go after.
