The Signature Edition BluRay

[KanuTGL]

I thought we might have a thread for this :p To post heads-up or discuss things!

I'm getting more and more inclined to pick up this edition, actually. I think it's a little silly how they're releasing a special-special-special edition, but from what I'm seeing of the promotional stuff it looks like there still is some new information to reveal!

I'd never heard about this before, for example 8O

SIMBA WAS ORIGINALLY SUPPOSED TO BE RAISED BY SCAR IN THE LION KING
Wait.... WHAAAT!!? :gasp:

Whoa! I knew there would be new previously unreleased material, but this is one hell of a new piece of information! And it's also interesting how is was supposed to have a Ferris Bueller influence, which explains Mathew Broderick's casting!

Ok, I'm excited to find out what else is in there! :D

I plan on getting it when it comes out on the 29th

It will be released outside north America? Here we will not get it...

I'm looking for it, is the bonus features worth (as the movie is the same of the old blu-ray) I may end up importing it.

I saw Leor share this on Twitter, and I think it belongs here too: http://hellogiggles.com/lion-king-scar-mufasa-brothers

All I have to say is... no. way. 8O 8O 8O

Now, that is intriguing. Let the fanfictions begin!:haha:

Is there any point to this why they say this 23 years later? Just leave it alone.

It appears that the story was false after all :\ Rob Minkoff just refuted it:

But I don't know if this means that the interview didn't happen, or if it did happen but it was widely taken out of context ><

....still an interesting idea though :p

[KanuTGL]

Ah, fair enough :p It gives some credit to the fan fiction writers that make them half-brothers though :D

This print that they revealed today is gorgeous: https://ohmy.disney.com/news/2017/08/29/be-prepared-youre-gonna-love-this-limited-edition-lion-king-serigraph-from-cyclops-print-works/?cmp=smc%7C1053656781

...but who else thought "Lava Scar!" when you first saw the upper half? :lol:

So, anyone received your signature edition blu-ray? The new bonus features worth the purchase for who have the old blast? Screen caps of it would be very welcomed.

I don't have a copy yet. I'm rather confused with all those different covers... does anyone know which one is worth the money?

[Kossu]

Not sure if this fits in this thread, but since there are some comments regarding the signature edition...

Who has this edition?
I need to know what extra's are on the blu-ray. Same as we've seen before, or many new things?

UK has gotten a "big sleeve" edition for Lion King since last week.
The packaging is LP-size. From what I could tell, from looking at a picture on ebay, the extra's seem to be the same as the US signature edition.
