Cool! It's been forever since I've seen this, so I'll very likely be picking it up. ^___^


Yeah, I agree that Mim should be on there. Especially since the bottom right corner looks a bit "empty."

Yeah,she and Merlin are the best characters :D their battle was also importent so they should have put her there.
Here's the official website:

Those cheap animations in the site are ugly,I hope they"ll update,Merlin and Madam Mim looks ugly in the site.
This summer and fall have great Disney DVDs,Ariel's Beginning,TinkerBell,Sword In The Stone,Sleeping Beauty PE,Nightmare Before Christmas :D.

I'll be getting this one. The wizard's duel is one of my favorite scenes from any animated film and overall the film is underrated IMO.

Yeah,it is kinda underrated,it should get more attention.
Anyone else think that the cover is beautiful? (Thought Madam Mim should be on it).

I think, simply put, it's splendid! I LOVE the color, and the use of wand dust.

I actually think it works. Merlin is on the top right corner, while Sir Ector and Kay are on the lower left corner; it kind of balances out.

Agree :D it looks magical :D.
Hey,is that Disney Dust? (Where's Dusterian?).
Yeah but still,it feels kinda empty the the Wizard's Duell is one of the importent scenes in the film so she's importent.

Thanks you Once! Yes, that would be Disney dust! The cover looks great but it does feel empty, too. Mim would probably be the best character for the empty space. But like Daniel said, Merlin and the two other guys kind of parallel each other. Maybe there could be more Disney dust or scenery in the empty space?

Yes, I was very tempted to write 'Disney dust' earlier, but thought against it. ;) I think there's more than enough, though.

Seeing as I don't own the previous edition, only VHS, I'll be getting this next month. Hopefully someone offers something cool for a store exclusive. :)

Well Once, I read those magic sparkles were called Disney dust when they first appeared in Cinderella, just for fun I guess. Then Disney had pixie dust in Peter Pan. I think Sleeping Beauty's fairies might have had theirs called Disney dust but on the DVD one artist just calls it fairy dust, the general name for it. The Disney company calls it pixie dust no matter who uses it now because it sounds more magical while also being something the Disney is known for and created (it was called fairy dust in the original Peter Pan play and book).

Yea. But pixie dust should only be for pixies, it makes more sense. And the new Disney Fairies franchise calls Tinker Bell a fairy and her dust fairy dust anyway, so it's even more confusing!

This dust thing is confusing :lol:.
Yeah,I guess that the Fairy Godmother,Flora,Founa,Merlin,Merriweather and etc. have Disney dust and TinkerBell and the other Disney Fairies has Pixie dust.

I got my copy, and I must say, the "extras" are quite disappointing... :?

Ah well. At least it has a pretty slipcover. And it's nice to actually have the movie.
