This is what just came in the mail for me (with Little Mermaid) and I thought it was a tad skimpy on the extras compared to other Pixar releases. Of course, I wanted more Edna Mode in the Incredibles DVD as well. Didn't get that, too bad.

Like GD, I'm more interested in a fine quality print and in widescreen than you very much.

That is a bit disappointing, the widescreen/fullscreen. A lot of
Disney movies only have full.

The Little Maid, I thought it said something about a game? I never saw it. Did I misunderstand or just not find it?

Just to let anyone who is interested know;

At Target they have it for $15.99 or $19.99 with a bonus DVD. Not sure what is on it but darn I didn't get it.

Has anyone besides me stopped purchasing DVD's all together?

I figure I'll jump to one of the two hi-resolution formats in a couple of years so I just can't see the point in purchasing the now old dvd format.

It makes me wonder if we are going to see a slowdown in DVD sales or if it's just me.

It's just you.

And a few other early adopters. Certainly, no one is going to buy into HD heavily until either BluRay or HD-DVD come out the winner. Even then, to most folks ... they increased picture quality is really not all that worthwhile a goal. DVD is just too new for most people to abandon, and it is foolish of media corporations to think everyone's just going to throw away the DVDs they've amassed over the past measley 6 years or so.

I won't be able to afford a hi-def TV till 2012 or so, so I really could care less about hi-def movies.

I know my son would love to switch over.

If he does, I shall amass a wonderful DVD collection!! Muahaahaaa!!

{for a tidy sum, to be sure}

I'm not sure I'm going to buy Cars. I liked it, but not incredibly much. I think it's the only Pixar film I liked that I saw only once in theaters. So I'm clearly not enthusiastic about it, and I think it will be only the second Pixar that I don't end up owning.

I got a two DVD set at Walmart- the main Cars fullscreen DVD and a second disc with the video of Life is a Highway, the making of the song, and a couple specials- one on the music and on on the movie.

It was $20

Cars is not my favorite of the Pixar releases. But, I did enjoy it enough to want to add it to my collection.

After seeing the trailer for Meet the Robinsons, I'm not sure how well that will go. Disney, non-Pixar CGI. I do love the look of Todayland in the preview.

Back to Cars, I do wish there had been a little more to the DVD extras. I wonder if that had anything to do with the Disney/Pixar rift in the last days of Eisner that caused less to be put into this? I'm not sure how far in advance any of this stuff is planned for the DVD releases.

I'm just glad that now there's a chance we may actually see it.
