Seems a bit silly to put these titles on bluray...the originals have degraded so much that even with digital reapairs, the DVD versions look very poor.

Just another ploy to rake in more cash from old titles. Slapping a new name on it like "diamond" doesn't make it any better than before. Besides how much bonus matrial can they come up with considering most of the films released were long before dvd's existed. Sorry Big D try again somewhere else!

marketing eh.

sell you the same old films all over again on the "new improved" format, this one comes with bells whistles and even go fast racing stripes u know.

the beauty of re-releasing the same stuff is you dont have to pay to make it again, pure profit.

extended editions, directors cuts, double dipping ect is a scam.

I'd be interested to see how Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King look with 1080p transfers. I actually bought the special edition B&TB DVD but haven't watched it yet.

I've got an Alladin rip (1080p) and it definitely looks very superior to any DVD I've seen of Alladin. All of the character's and main buildings ect. are drawn in HD while all of the backgrounds still look like dvd quality. It does look considerably better on bluray though.

I did not think that Alladin Bluray had come out yet. I think is saw where it was comming out in 2010.

I have the same thing. FANTASTIC quality. I'd be very interested in seeing Alice in Wonderland and Beauty and the Beast.
