Now, Disney, let's release Mary Poppins on Blu and the world will be complete again.

FRICK YES!
And I was just posting on Blu-ray.com's forums today how I hoped we'd get this. Those caps are gorgeous. I'm perfectly happy with Lowry's restoration from 2004, so if they're merely putting that onto this (it was done in HD to begin with), I'll be happy. Alice doesn't need re-tweaking the way Cinderella (and possibly Peter Pan) do.
Now, Disney, please please PLEASE give us the following:
* Cine-Explore with Kathryn Beaumont and several Disney animators and/or historians showcasing lots of production artwork missing on DVD
* ALL of the song demos from the laserdisc
* Both missing BBC radio broadcasts from the laserdisc
* The storyboard-to-film comparison from the laserdisc
* Extend "Reflections on Alice" by at least 17 minutes
* The missing 1974 re-issue trailer that was on the Gold Classic DVD
* Every feature from the Masterpiece and Un-Anniversary DVD
Do this, and you'll have a perfect release. Please, Disney. Don't screw this one up. Snow White (missing PE features aside), Pinocchio, and Sleeping Beauty (missing SE commentary aside) were outstanding releases. The only genuine effort it takes from you is to create a commentary and gallery presentation for Cine Explore and re-edit "Reflections on Alice." Everything else is a simple matter of transferring already-created materials. You can do this, Disney. I believe in you!

It kind of aggravated me to see the Alice in Wonderland Special Un-Anniversary Edition commercial in HD on Disney Channel but being advertised as DVD only. The PQ just looked so great in HD that is was cruel of them to tease us but it looks like they were holding back for the 60th Anniversary (and the other one was just to cash in on the Tim Burton movie).

Yeah- I just bought the "Un-Anniversary" last month. I'll feel better if this 60th Anniversary is Blu-Ray specific but be a little p-o'ed if they have a bunch of new bonus features.Avaitor wrote:Yay, now I don't have to buy the recent rerelease.
I feel sorry for those who did, though, especially if you already have the previous release.

Hopefully they'll dig out the original masters of the TV commercials and restore those too.Disneykid wrote: Now, Disney, please please PLEASE give us the following:
