Snow White Blu-ray Out Seven Weeks Before DVD


Posted April 3, 2009 09:23 AM by Josh Dreuth

Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment has announced that the upcoming Platinum Edition Blu-ray release of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs', which is due to hit store shelves on October 6th, will precede the DVD release by seven weeks. Those DVD fans who don't wish to wait until November 24th will be happy to hear that the Blu-ray release will include the DVD version as well, so you get both formats in one release!

Bob Chapek, president of Disney, commented that the Blu-ray/DVD combo format would provide owners "another opportunity to maximize their viewing options. With today's technological breakthroughs found in Blu-ray, we are confident that this version of 'Snow White' will easily become the reference point for high-definition home entertainment libraries and family collections all over the world."

When initially released on DVD in 2001, 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' became the first Disney animated classic to sell 1 Million copies in a single day. Hopes are high at the house of mouse that a similar record will be witnessed with this new Platnium release, except this time on the Blu-ray format.

The new release will feature several all-new bonus features that weren't included on the 2001 release.

Thanks goes to bluflu for submitting the news.

'Snow White' headed to Blu-ray

Disney classic will make high-definition debut in October

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," the first Walt Disney animated classic and the first DVD to sell a million copies in a single day, will make its Blu-ray Disc debut Oct. 6 in a special combo pack ($39.99) that includes a DVD. A two-disc standard DVD release ($29.99) will follow the combo pack by seven weeks, arriving in stores Nov. 24.

Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment is hoping the early Blu-ray Disc release will drive consumers to the new format. The classic retelling of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale has never before been seen in high-definition.

The combo pack, according to division worldwide president Bob Chapek, will give consumers "another opportunity to maximize their viewing options. With today's technological breakthroughs found in Blu-ray, we are confident that this version of 'Snow White' will easily become the reference point for high-definition home entertainment libraries and family collections all over the world."

"Snow White" hasn't been available in any form since its first, and only, DVD release in 2001. The new release will include several all-new bonus features not included on the original 2001 edition.

Same as Pinocchio - beautifully!

The DVD extras on the 2001 release remain some of the best Disney have ever produced - I hope the new additions come up to that standard.

I hope that is the final art work for the cover of the DVD & Blue=Ray. I like it.
