Originally Posted By MouseBear Salutations Lee, Thank you for the wonderful descriptions of this DVD. I also must commend your choice of pictures. Now I have to buy the American version just to see all of the features. ) Of course it helps that Aurora is my daughter's favorite Princess. Lee

(You realize, of course, that the Horned King's Castle was sort of modeled after Maleficent's, don't you?) Anyway, I can't wait to get my sticky fingers on one of those DVD's!!! ORGOCH: Sticky's the word, sure 'nuff! And I'll bet Doobie's half way ta OZ by now, over the idea of gittin' a slobbery kiss from the likes of yerself!

It *still* won't have everything the UK release will. :-\ He mentioned a lotta stuff that's on the UK set, but not quite *every*thing. Unless Disney changes their minds in time!!

Looking forward to the DVD in September, I hope the supplements are at least as extensive as the laserdiskand the kiddie games and sequel trailers are kept to minimum.

Originally Posted By leemac Hi If you need any info about the DVDs, email me at lee.macdonald76@btinternet.com I can get them for you and either post them or (if you live near Disneyland) can collect them when we are there from April 9 thru 11. I don't mind helping people out with this. I would love to share these DVDs with some of our LP readers! Lee.

I *LOVED* your review, and, of course, bein' an SB-*LOVER*, like, TOTALLY agreed with it! I just wanted to BATHE in some o' those words you said! LOL! Really! I did! Thanks for writin' that man, Byron
