I know, right? I was really pissed off as well. The only way to really listen to it, is through an LaserDisc, but they are impossible to buy. Especially since I live in Norway.Marce82 wrote:Oh, Disneyfan... I know about the original commentary! And i was so pissed off when I found out about it!
Why couldnt have they included that in the 10th anniversary as well? It was so close to being a perfect release (to my taste)...
Well, except for the audio synch issue...

Are you kidding me?Sotiris wrote:It's bonus feature. Singular. Not features. Yes, Disney went all out on extras again. Lnds500 answered you. That's the one.DisneyFan09 wrote:According to the trailer, the Blu-ray will have never-before-seen bonus features. I wonder what it would be.

Are you. Freakin'. Kidding me?! Thanks a lot, Disney.

I still don't know whether or not I should get this or not. I love Pocahontas, but the sequel is dreadful, and the excision of If I Never Knew You leaves me really confused. Disney could have at least made it a four disc set (one BD/DVD for each film) to make it seem like they tried with this release instead of sticking a not-so-great sequel with the superior original. I guess I could just pre-order it with the coupon and then decide later if I want to cancel the order or not.

Sure: the coupon from Amazon (I think it's $8). I have no idea how long it's good for, though.Khonnor wrote:Can I ask what coupon you're referring to?TheSequelOfDisney wrote:I guess I could just pre-order it with the coupon and then decide later if I want to cancel the order or not.

I should have just collected the blu-ray packages from the start...suits me...*sigh*

As dumb as most of the sequels (including this one) are, I see it as a nice consolation in a way... if for whatever reason I become a super-duper completist later on, I'm glad I would always have the option to watch this. That said, though, I wish the sequel were more of a special feature than receiving equal billing to Pocahontas. The "2-Movie Collection" banner should only apply to sequels that were also DACs (Fantasia, Rescuers series).

I have absolutely no complaint with the sequels being included in a set with the originals, but to promote them as equals is just flat out wrong. The set could still tout itself as a two-film set, but just mark it as Pocahontas and have a tag on the bottom or something that says that it also includes the sequel. Are there really people out there more conserned with getting this releases as a 2-film set than getting the original?
^yes, people who buy these movies for their children and don't watch them for themselves - aka the biggest consumer demographic of Disney DVDs. Clearly labeled 2-Movie Collection = value for money.
I don't know why Disney doesn't simply cater for both parents and disney enthuiastics as they have in the past. Release a 2MC alongside a collectors edition. Argue that a collector could even be tempted to buy both editions. Suggest parents wouldn't get confused and annoyed, as the 2MC would be the obvious choice over the collectors edition.
Thats what they do here in Australia/overseas. We get Bambi/Bambi II combo sets alongside standalone releases. That way people have options!

I really hope that the audio commentary will be the one from the LaserDisc, although I doubt it.Sotiris wrote:Specifications for 'Pocahontas 2-Movie Collection' Blu-ray combo pack (North America)
