That's just plain weird!

Disney did pretty much the same thing for the Brother Bear 2 soundtrack.

Yeah, but that wasn't a theatrical release...?

I'd expect a CD to show up at some point, maybe next Christmas for the Blu-Ray/DVD...

Anyone who's a fan of the Santa Clause movies and Elf might want to check out the trailer for Fred Claus, now on MySpace. In my opinion, this project looks like a lot of fun.

Heh. That does look like fun...But because I'm seeing 5,978 different movies next year in theaters, I'll have to wait this one out for the DVD.

5,978 Meg? I know there are a lot, but not that many ;)

I agree, it looks like a lot of fun. The more Christmas films the better, is what I always say :D

I didn't feel the need to start a new topic about this special, so I thought I'd place it in a Christmas-themed thread. The deal I am referring to is this: Kmart is having a sale, in which the purchase of either Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer or Frosty the Snowman will get one a free box of Cap'n Crunch.

I have a feeling I know what you're thinking. "Is that all?" :) Still, I'd say if you were going to buy one of those DVDs anyway, getting a free snack isn't a bad deal at all.

Are they the Rankin/Bass discs? Apparently they're not great quality and even Sony's "remastered" ones are not up to scratch (in the red covers).

So choose wisely... :)

Here's a question... I already own these, but in red collecter box, made to resemble a book. But, I think the quality is superb.

So, I'm uncertain. Do you think I have the original or remastered DVD's?

Hmmm, I remember when that red collectors' set came out and the pricing was awesomely low, I was going to get it but a few people menioned that the quality wasn't much better than the original "blue box" versions, which wa supposedly bad to start with.

So I never got 'em! :(

Aww that's a bummer Ben :(

And, that's the reason I actually got it. It was less than 20 dollars, which was a steal!

I thought the quality was good, what's out there that's better? The before DVD's? Picky people :roll: ;)

If its any concellation, they look better than they do on Tv :)

Just a reminder for those who might be interested, The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause is finally coming to DVD and Blu-Ray this Tuesday. (11/20)

Never got around to seeing it in theatures, so I'll probably give this rental soon, OR I might get the exclusive Target is offering, which is a 3 pack containing all The Santa Clause movies. (For $32.99) I don't have either of the first two (like Spidy, heh) so this would be a great and easy way to get 'em, plus I love box sets! :) Here's a pic:

Btw, here's two similar threads:
