There are two competing formats, Advanced Optical Disc (AOD) and Blue-Ray, competing to be the successor of DVD. The discs will allow the storage of over 20GB of data, allowing for either more bonus features or a higher quality presentation. Perhaps the next release of TLK will be in one of these formats.

Yeah, a disk that can hold more information than most personal computers today....except new computers, which now can hold up to 80GBs. I believe DVDs hold about 5 to 6 GBs of info.....so you can either put about 7 or 8 movies on one of those new discs or have one movie with a ton of extras...considering that I believe the Blue-Ray will be using the blue laser technology which makes it possible to store around 40GBs on one disc.

I heard that the Japanese were going to use one of these technologies in conjunction with high definition televisions in order to present full length movies that can take advantage of the higher resolution. Sounds good to me. I'd rather pay to see a better version of TLK than to pay for additional bonus features. (In the latter, case, Disney really ought to release a supplementary disc.)

Granted ... I don't have a high definition TV, nor will I have one for many years. Trip to Sharifu's mom's place? :lol:

Blue-Ray will most likely come installed with the PS3 and Disney has said recently they will support this format. But unless you have an HDTV you really won't see a huge difference in detail, if any.

Also I've read most animated movies won't look significantly different in HD than DVD because they don't contain as much detail as a real-life filmed image.

So if you don't have one of these movies, just get it now!

Vidan
December 23rd, 2004, 05:27 AM
Good point! Ties in with how they had to clean up the animation and add additional effects for the IMAX version of TLK, since the screen is so huge.

All I want is for that annoying layer change after The Morning Report to go away. :lol:

According to lionking.org, TLK was available on VHS and laserdisc up until 1997-1998, and was 'vaulted' until the release of the special edition DVD and VHS in 2003.

Yoinked from another site:



Q:What is the Disney vault?

A: Disney has a marketing strategy in which they release an animated movie and leave it on the market for a set period of time. After this time period, Disney takes them off the market and puts them in the Disney Vault. This means that the consumer is unable to obtain them for ten years. This method allows for movies to cycle, build up anticipation, and target the next generation.



So you see, it does serve a purpose and I think that it serves that purpose quite well. If you have a movie sitting on the shelf for over a year or so, it makes it difficult to promote that movie and sooner or later the retail value will plummet...I've seen movies go from valued at $25.99 down to $12.99 in a matter of months. By cycling through which movies are available and which aren't, it allows Disney to keep both promotion and prices up...and there's other stuff involved too, but I don't have time to explain right now. ;)

At any rate, it doesn't concern me since I have my copies already...

Thanks for the info. When will the movies be released again? In 7 years? I forgot.

I alread have all three films. It'll be interesting to see if Disney adds new features or documentaries to the new releases in 7 years. Aren't the DVDs going to be released in High Definition DVD too? I keep forgeting the technical details. I hope Disney Shows The Lion King in Imax Theaters too and starts a new line of toys and merchandise in 7 years. :)

The Laserdisc version comes close, I think, not DVD quality, but it has a lot of stuff that didn't get on the DVD.

I just got mine yesterday. I bought the 4-disc collector's edition for about 40 bucks and you cannot tell anyone ever opened it. Look on Ebay if you want one. Just make sure your laserdisc player does AC-3 Dolby Digital audio!

Vidan
December 27th, 2004, 03:20 AM
I don't like the 'vaulting' per se, but what Disney's doing makes good business sense.

If the end result of vaulting keeps Disney afloat and their stock price high, Disney will keep producing original material. They're already losing momentum because their core market (original movie and TV animation) is floundering, and they (from what I've read) have to re-release their older works to keep the positive cash flow going. If the market is flooded with Disney DVD's, they will be forced to lower the price point of a particular title in order to keep sales going. That has an unfortunate negative effect of saturating the market with that title, and less people will be receptive to a re-release.

The other method they can (and do) employ to capitalize on their previous successes is through cross-marketing of toys, games, etc. related to their hot sellers in hope of enticing consumers to spend more per movie. While it might be good for collectors, this can only go on for so long -- usually until the sales of the movie itself start falling or until, again, the market is saturated with related merchandise that consumers will become apathetic or even hostile to more of it.

Honestly, I'd rather see the company profit by commanding a higher price for its movies rather than fill the world with more of what most people (hard-core collectors aside) would call junk.

lion_roog
December 27th, 2004, 06:22 AM
It might be more simple for Disney to profit off of merchandise because all they do is sell the rights to their product to a manufacturer....very low over head. Where as making and selling DVDs and such creates a much larger over head.

Vidan
December 27th, 2004, 07:01 AM
That's true. I don't imagine that they'd make nearly as much per unit on the licensing fees alone for toys and such., but they'll do it anyway, probably because of the reason you mentioned (little or no overhead).

It's also true that it doesn't take a whole lot of money to produce a DVD, including its packaging. Somewhere on the order of $1-2 USD. Anything above those initial few bucks is cash on hand for them. That's why it behooves them to keep the retail price of their DVD's high by limiting supply. :cheese:

As far as a marketing strategy goes, i think 'the vault' is a good idea. I've already got all of the movies so it won't affect me, unless one of my discs get damaged, but then there's Ebay.

Prices of the movies have dropped quite a lot over here anyway. They were originally about $36, now you can get each one for $19.95.

It still seems strange that TLK is going to dissappear again though. Oh well, i'm sure the re-release in 10 years will spaw a whole new generation of fans :cheese:

I know i'll be buying the next SE they bring out, assuming i'm still alive in 10 years :gasp: ;)

Yes, at least that's what we were told. You see, since my Lion King disc is a bit battered and old (it magicallly disappeared for a few months and turned up in my cousin's room), and our DVD player is too sensitive to handle it. Thus, I'm not allowed to watch it at home. Well, my mom was out with a friend to buy a new one for me to indulge in my obsession...well, anyways, the lady at the store went to go check in the back. A man came out, and he announced that it'd been vaulted.

I'll try to be sure this is accurate, but until then, "To eBAY and Pawn Shops I go! Ride!"

I've got all three TLK movies on DVD, as well as the original VHSs of Sp & TLK.

I don't know why Disney even does that vaulting thing. :p

My DVD trilogy is sitting unopposed atop a bookshelf. I'm not certain about the fate of my TLK VHS.

eBay and Half.com has lots of Lion King DVDs. I bought the 1999 version of Simba's Pride from eBay.

Amazon.com also sells The Lion King on DVD.

Well that would certainly explain why it took me so long to find one in Finland. I can see their reason for doing it in most stores, but there are always like discount movie stores where you can get them. I know at my video rental place you can buy preowned movies as well as ex-rentals. If I remember correctly too, you can still rent the TLK DVD from there, I know you can rent SP still. But I've noticed that when I was looking round the record shops in Leeds, I never found a copy, I didn't ask or anything, but there weren't any on the shelves, and that was in both HMV and Virgin Megastore, 2 of the biggest record shops in the UK. So yeah, it may well have been vaulted, I guess they thought that everyone who wanted one has now got one, blah. And yes, Ebay totally pwns, it's like a second home to me, you will definately get one on there, the only thing to watch out for when buying DVDs from there is that they're not totally decked and scratched from misuse, as I've had a lot of problems with that when buying DVDs/CDs from Ebay.

:eek: What a mistake I made ... I have 4 TLK 1 DVD's o_O
(French "Edition Exlusive")

Haha :lol:


Eventually, all Disney movies on DVD/VHS dissapear from the shelves, because they aren't made anymore (or something) or by that vauling thing.

Not to worry, another 8-9-10 years, and they will release it again, hehe :cheese:

S'ok, reviving a dead thread here, but tis for a good (imo) reason. The DVD's have been vaulted, hence why it took me so long to find TLK in Finnish.

But can anyone either provide me with or show me to where I can get the TLK1 DVD's in; Polish (Kr?l Lew), Swedish (Lejonkungen), Dutch (De Leeuwekoning) and Spanish (El Rey Le?n)? Help much appreciated ^^ Thankies.

EDIT: One has already checked Ebay and found nowt :[

I can't buy anything anymore this month :s So I have to wait till the beginning of April.

Maybe I can just keep it with me then, and give it to you on the meeting(s) ?

That way you don't have to worry about how to pay back, you just need some extra Euro's then, hehe

I have no idea what it cost though :confused: Can't be too much, since it's already an "old" DVD.


Ow, and if you wanna know, the Dutch DVD only has English + Dutch audio on it :grrr:
