http://www.blu-ray.com/images/ces2008/lion1.jpg
no official word on the release date but it has been confirmed that they are now working on TLK in BLU! :cheese:!!!!!!!!!!
edit:
found this preview that also mentions TLK coming to Blu, it is at the very end and is kind of fuzzy

evidently I was wrong about this clip for TLK, it could possibly be 1080p TLK

YAY!!! going in to my collection!! xP
if only i had a blue ray player....
Ok, how is TLK any better on blu-ray than on normal DVD? Comparision plz.
Sigh, blu-ray is taking over Lea.
well if ya dont know its baseclyt just this,
better sound,qualety can be seen on big screens without getting pixelish so to speak...
so really its nothing to get a blue ray for, but if ya already have one :3
Blu ray works for new movies to have very good picture. But TLK has more thare than 15 years. It was already recorded (for theese days) bad. Don't expect much from it.
I'll take a look if i decide to download blu ray version. I expect a diference. But not big enough it will be worth pay it.
I'll most likely buy it, not because I like Blu-Ray or have a Blu-Ray machine....but just for the sake of owning it :P
preety mutch the same here xP collectors item ya know hehe
sure. the same here... if it's for free! I'm no so big fan of it. We have quite large disney collection here. But on the end i can already see it wont end well.
What can I say...well nothing because it's already been said. :pQuote:

Dang. I have no blu ray, and the only Lion King I have is on my computer and VHS. No longer have a VHS either.
ebay ;) helped me find the TLK collectors set for like $20, I still have the dvd sealed in the package :cheese:
^ Ohh.. Shiny, post a picture :cheese:
Yeah. Will probably try ebay. Its the best bet.
Mmmk. No actual physical proof infront of me though. :confused:Quote:

I don't see the point of getting a blu-ray player. From a bit of research I've done, I can see there is so little difference between HD DVD and blu-ray. The two true differences are the storage space (blu-ray superior space) and the price (DVD cheaper). How does the TLK HD DVD movie comapre to the blu-ray version?
Some Blu-ray players have no ethernet ports for accessing upgrades and interactive disc features via broadband, and you can get HD movies, sport, drama and documentaries from satellite and cable TV.
Blu-ray seems ridiculus for the price you have to pay for it. Yes, if you have a PS3 you're sorted for the "next-gen", but I would consider it stupid to have a more expensive piece of equipment that has very few exclusive games (and most of which can be bought for the Xbox 360) and done by a very arrogant company seemingly only supported by their fanboys.
Don't get me wrong, I'll admit that blu-ray might be good if I get some good facts about it. So someome, show me evidence of blu-rays/PS3s awesomeness. I'm curious to know more about it. Prove it to me that its a worthwhile investment!! :D
it rules? :idiot:
fyi...it costs the same to produce a HD-DVD as a Blu-Ray disk ;)
the only difference in price between blu-ray and hd-dvd is the stand alone systems. The cheapest HD-DVD player on the market is $149.99 and from what I have heard, it has been discontinued. The cheapest blu-ray player is still around $289. So yes up front you will spend more for blu-ray but in the long run it will cost the same but with blu-ray you are getting 4 times the storage capacity. Plus Blu-Ray has a much more versatile laser, the way it reads a disk is completely different from any other player as in it can read even a warped disk if you wanted vs a HD-DVD would not even register in the player and would come up with an error. All Blu-Ray disks are scratch and finger proof, a bunch of hd-dvd fanboys cry saying that blu disks scratch easily and are cheap, well they are just saying that to make themselves feel better. Blu-Ray disks are actually cheaper to produce than a dvd and because of that, Sony decided to go ahead and add the extra protective layers and the end result makes the blu disk cost the same to produce as a dvd. The codecs are better on a blu-ray disk. blu-ray players can handle more codecs and a higher bit rate producing a better image. ALL Blu movies are 1080P and so are all the players vs hd-dvd movies require a higher priced player to support 1080P. HD-DVD players do not support full java, just the scripts I believe it is vs blu-ray players support full java for full interactivity in the movies. currently hd-dvds can only go to a "in theory" 50gb limit vs blu-ray has already been tested and proven that it can handle 200gbs on a single disk. blu-ray holds pretty much over 90% of the HD world with more companies going exclusive daily. Paramount is already in talks to going to blu-ray exclusive this summer but will not make the announcement until toshiba has been able to sell off all of their players, Universal I heard yesterday is negotiating with Sony as we speak.
probably my biggest reason to why I back up blu-ray more than ever is because this year I fould out that Spielberg is backing blu which means I get to see Jp in HD and he is already prepping Indiana Jones IV for a blu-ray release this year :cheese:
HD is not for everyone, for those who have the money, it is money well spent. The signals you receive over HD channels on tv are in 1080i, as in you are not getting the full picture you deserve. The HD downloads are not streaming in 1080p either and with our current broadband technology it is not possible to stream 1080P unless you have a T3 connection.
So far the PS3 is the best HD player on the market and the most future proof. You can expand the hard drive to w/e you want giving you tons of storage for your media like movies, pictures, and music...basically it is your media center. The 360 if you wanted it to play high def it would be a minimum of $460 and that is without the hard drive, to have the 20gb hard drive it would be a total of at least $560 and that is with half of the memory that the PS3 has. Plus the PS3 this year will be getting a ton of new exclusive games and we will finally be able to see the PS3 graphics running at their max...I can't wait for GT5!!!!!!!!! Plus the PS3 will be doing a price drop within the next few months making it have even more of a bang for your buck. Want more info? just ask, I read up on this stuff hourly pretty much :idiot: :lol:

lol a pure statment of one who do not know a thing or two abut situations "lol i didnt mean to offend with that comment even if it sounds like it i appolgise i just have a bad way with words" xP
right so there really isent any machine that is "best" it is all in what kind of position your in.
dont have a big *** HD screen suround sound etc etc and cant get the fullest out of your ps3 and that you dont have that mutch money buying a ps3 is prob the worst ya can do xP
however lets say ya do have a big *** screen suroundsound "etc etc etc" and can afford a ps3 ..why not buy it? twist and turn all you like but "as far as i know" the ps3 is better "grapical/space wise jadi jadi jadi jadi etc" so if ya want the best machine FOR FOR FOR FOR "just making sure ya see it xP" FOR high blue ray movies AND games then ps3 is prob the best buy,
HOWEVER ^^ if ya want quite the resoponsebul price "note ps3 has been lowerd quite drasticly now" the 360 is prob the best buy,
dont cost insanly alot "witch ps3 did just accept it fan ps3 boys xP" has a huge selection of game, etc,
however i cant say i agree with you that all the games of the ps3 comes to 360 and all i see now a days is the games being realised on both consuls ,
example of qualety,
new gta game ps3 version: "wow we got alot of space left on the ps3 hmmm what should we place in...more content..animations..grapics..."etc etc etc"
360 version: crap we dont have enough space we gota cut down on some stuff a little,
NOW iv read this but natruealy i dont buy up everything i read but still.
but frankly i couldent care less xP as i stated upove its all abut what situation your inand when i meet a guy who has a 360 or Wii insted of going "god you waste your money ps3 is better" i say
dang dude thats azomse id love to play dead rising on the 360 or Super smach brawl on the wii!
personly i just find consul wars idiotic and stuped whana hear the reason i get a ps3? here is the real reason.
ps3 will have
Final fantasy, Resident evil, Kingdom hearts, Devil may cry, GTA, The agency,Afrika, Metal gear solid yadi yadi yadi the list goes on xP
there really is no suprime machine...ya get what suits you best economecly and taste in games and thats simply dot in that ^^,
however...i am a little tencho freak if i buy stuff like this i prob will always pay the extra price to get that 1% better grapics or something xP i dunno why lol
When this is released, I'm going to buy a PS3 just so I can watch this. Can't wait.
Simba '04 - That was an interesting reply, thanks for your input. ^_^ I think I'll convert to blu-ray when it has completely taken over the market. Most films and games come in DVD format so I'll stick with that for a while. Thank you though, you have put forward interesting points for me.
shadow - The main point of my post was to say "convince me!" not "PS3 sux u all waste ur monies" or summate. And btw the games you said to be exclusive to PS3 (Final fantasy, Resident evil, Kingdom hearts, Devil may cry, GTA, The agency,Afrika, Metal gear solid) well lets go through the list.
Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts are owned by the same company (Square Enix) and they have considered going multi-format for all of their games, XI being the pioneer in MMO multi-format gaming. Square Enix is only allowing exclusivity for XIII to Sony as long as they get a lot of sales. If not its easy enough to say they'll go multi-format for their games.
Resident Evil 5 is on both systems. Devil May Cry 4 is also on both systems, as is GTA. The Agency is done by Sony so yeah.. of course it would be exclusive but its still on PC. Afrika is again by Sony. MGS is the only one there that is exclusive to Sony to any degree.
Most of the games are going to be multi-format.
aye but just becouse there multi realised dont mean the games are just the same
as with the example of GTA prove you am afried i cannot sense i already told ya its all in what position your in:bleen:
and am no pro in "proving stuff" becouse am not that tecnikal of myself and sense i couldent care less what everone else is getting i rarley need to know the "prossesing power and what the ps3 contains and etc etc" i myself trust my father who is very tencikal and then i trust the other 80% "ish" that says the ps3 has better grapics/qualety etc etc
but ofcurse its not saying alot if they dont use its full capacity,
they compare Resistence fall of man to Gears of war,
by that time the 360 had been out for a year and there compareing it with a first realise off a ps3 game and the ps3 hold strong.
belive me when they learn to use all of the power in the ps3 it will prob kick away 360s butt "thats what i think am not saying it will"
and if you want to judge this thing upon exluvies heres al ist of whats exlusive and whats not.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...tation_3_games
and lets not forget that most 360 games will hit the pcs...not very exlusive if ya ask me sense almost everyone ps3 owners or not has a pc
"caugh gears of war caugh caugh"
:cheese: peace and love to the gaming world!
Fair enough, if theres games in that list people actually want to play fair enough. Good Japanese games badly converted into english aren't my thing, same with subbed Naruto over dubbed. FFXIII would be the only thing there thats actually slightly appealing to me.
Yeah, and most PS3 games will also hit PCs. So... yeah, both PS3 and XBox360 games (some of them) will hit PCs. Why not just spec out the PC than get a consul at all? Apart from the (very) few exclusive games to both, the PC gets the best of both worlds.Quote:

Eh, one can't say "PS3 is better than 360" without knowing the facts about the PS3 in the first place. Its like saying "My TV is better than your TV" without knowing the pixel count or dimensions or whatever. You can't compare without knowing specifics.
Simba '04 - If you have more specific details about the PS3 that you know through playing it (or simply knowing a hell of a lot about it) poke me!
I personally own a Halo 3 Edition Xbox 360 and the 40GB PS3, so I have a taste of both worlds :idiot:
from personal game play to be honest with you I really have not compared them as much as I thought I would have. If you are looking for a gaming system right now, I say 360 all the way, if you are looking for a gaming system in like 3 months from now, PS3 would be the way to go. The price drop should be happening soon as if it was not cheap enough as it is.
ehh, lets see...hmmm.......*thinking* well I can put it this way, Halo 3 rules and it is exclusive to 360 all though that will no longer be true by the end of the year now that Bungie broke off from Microsoft. Comparing a racing game side by side, PS3 wins hands down graphic wise, controller wise I would have to put 360 at top just because the controller is soooo easy to use, but Sony is releasing its new PS3 controller which should be much better. idk...you will have to give me a couple months before I can give you some really good reviews between the two. PS3 I don't even own any games for it but I have downloaded a TON of demos on it and that is how I know how the system plays. GT HD is a lot of fun :cheese:. 360 I own a few games and it is a really good system. My main and really only reason for purchasing the PS3 was for the blu-ray capability, no other reason at the time convinced me to buy something else. But with the new games coming out this year I definitely will be buying some for it, particulary GT5 Prologue. I can't beleive it is coming out next month, if you want to see what the PS3 can do at its full potential, that is the game to get. The PS3 is using 7 processors vs 360 is using 3, PS3 uses a SATA HDD vs 360 uses a solid state HDD (cool but too expensive). The life span of a PS3 is far greater than a 360 and if anything happened to it, the PS3 has a quicker warranty return rate. PS3 has bluetooth built into it so you don't have to buy some special adapter to have a wireless headset. The controller feels like a feather it is sooo light. You can choose your own operating system for the PS3 and use it as a computer ( I used it to watch youtube videos one night, hahaha ). Does not cost anything to play online vs 360 you have to have a subscription. The 40GB version is not backwards compatible with PS2 games, you have to get the new 120gb one for that, at least I think the new one is 120, might be 160gb. umm....I haven't used the media controls on it yet but I will be shortly considering that I just put a ton of my movies and tv shows onto my pc hard drive. 360 when you play a zune movie through the 360 on the tv it looks horrible, I'm dissapointed :(.
sorry I can not give you much details, my new job really doesn't allow me to have the free time to play video games anymore, at least not for now until the busy season is over.
edit: I just saw that you also mentioned about what I knew of the system besides playing it (sorry I worked a 13 hour shift today)
give me some questions and I'll be more than happy to answer them, right now my mind is kind of "bla" and I don't know what else to say other than going off for a few pages about the system...best part about what I know of the PS3 is that a Sony PS3 rep came into a gamestop one night while I was there (when I worked at RadioShack right next door I would always go over to gamestop and was good friends with the employees there) he started going off about the PS3 and what not and so of course with the personality that I have, I asked him some blunt questions about the system and he couldn't answer even one of them :cheese:, sooooo much fun messing with reps from a company, they think I'm stupid because I work(ed) at a retail store, hahahahahahahaha!!! best one was when I saw a Canon rep. at Circuit City, did the same with her asking her questions about the new 40D and she couldn't answer any of my questions and I had to brief her on the camera :evilgrin:
I'm such a technology nerd ;)
I bought a 40gb PS3 for the occasion. Now all I need is a HD-TV, and of course, the actual DVD itself.
March will be a good time to get a TV and the TLK blu-ray does not have a release date yet
For those who are interested, there seems to be almost an accurate release date for TLK on Blu-Ray. It was speculated that the Brazilian branch of Buena Vista has released some information on the future of the Platinum editions. I don't know if anyone knows, but this fall, the very first Platinum Blu-Ray release will be available alongside a regular DVD -> Sleeping Beauty. It will mark the first appereance of the popular line of Platinums of the hi-def format; which will include a pristine hi-def transfer and up to 7.1 surround sound.
Originally Disney released planned a Platinum line...which consists of 10 titles (their 10 greatest animated titles [this was changed..I'll explain later])..and all would be Blu-Ray releases. So Here we have the current Platinum line that was released on DVD starting in 2001 with..
1- Snow White and the Seven Dwarves (Fall 2001)
2- Beauty and the Beast (Fall 2002)
3- Lion King (Fall 2003)
4- Aladdin (Fall 2004)
5- Bambi (March 2005)--> Bambi was the first Platinum to be released during the spring...due to the fact that Disney thought they should speed up their platinum line... decided on releasing 2 Platinums per year starting this year.
6- Cinderella (Fall 2005)
7- Lady and the Tramp (Spring 2006)
9- Little Mermaid (Fall 2006)
10- Peter Pan (Spring 2007) <--was added to the Platinum line, this release was a last minute shocker.
11- Jungle Book (Fall 2007)
12- 101 Dalmatians (Spring 2006)
13- Sleeping Beauty (Fall 2008)
Now with the release of 101 Dalmatians around the corner, people have gotten copies of it early, and like every Platinum, it confirms one or two future titles for the platinum line. Confirmimg the first ever Blu-Ray Sleeping Beauty and Pinocchio for Spring 2009.
Now, let's back track and take a look at what the Brazilian branch Buena Vista leaked as the future Platinum line..
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5.../platinuns.jpg
So, after "Sleeping Beauty" we're getting "Pinocchio" and "Snow White" in 2009, "Fantasia" and "Beauty and the Beast" in 2010 and "Alice" and "The Lion King" in 2011.
Mind you, this was leaked last year, therefore there was no real proof of a release for Pinocchio until the Spring Platinum in 2008. So far so good, the image is accurate... Pinocchio was confirmed..take a look at the 101 Dalmation booklet ...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...sc04486ev4.jpg
(Sorry, it's brazilian..but it's readable lol, don't worry the Platinum line doesn't change according to region is all the same.)
According to Buena Vista...Aladdin is not as popular as they thought (it was its poorest performer out of the who line) so it's being replaced by Alice in Wonderland...and apparently Pinocchio, Fantasia, and Sleeping Beauty were added last minute along with Peter Pan since 101 Dalmatians was supposed to be the last Platinum... making a total of 14 titles. =)
Now this is just speculation, and it seems pretty accurate...and it makes sense. Notice the Fall release pattern (matching the current DVDs released before) starting with Snow White, B&TB, TLK etc.... with the March releases being added.
So Folks.... Lion King seems to be coming to you in its Blu-Ray hi-def glory in Fall 2011...I know seems pretty far...but I'd bet it'll be worth it =)))).
I'm impressed, you have done your homework :idiot:
you might be right, I've heard it is coming out this fall on Blu, but with the war over and there isn't any competition anymore we will just have to wait and see
Alright, I may just be persuaded over to the blu side if I see The Little Mermaid in blu and its good.
The most artistic movie eva.
disney sided with Blu-Ray anyway, so it was pretty damn clear it was gonna be released on Blu-Ray anyway
i just want the damn release date now! :(
I have already e-mailed them and they sent me an e-mail back saying that there is no date for it yet. I'm hoping this year but it could still be a few years as lolopimp pointed out ;)
