Monsters Inc. Delayed?

[taygan315]

This question has probably been answered as well, but why have pixar ben dragging their feet releasing their older library titles to bluray? Animation + hidef == win!

They cant release them fast enough for me. Totally agree with you. I have a avchd copy of 'The Incredibles' and it is just !!

Both Fantasia and Fantasia/2000 are scheduled for spring 2010 as Platinum Editions. According to dvdaf.com, they are listed as March 2nd, 2010 and their dates seem to be pretty accurate.

thanks!!!!

Disney could of also realized that releasing Bug's Life and Monsters Inc on the same day was a bad idea. Better to spread things out a bit so at least we aren't having to buy them all at once.

Especially, as you know, "in this economy."*



*Don't you love that excuse by now.

I just recieved an e-mail back from Buena Vista Home Entertainment (the distributor of all Disney releases), and they had this to say:

"Thank you for your email regarding MONSTERS INC. We value your interest in Walt Disney Home Entertainment.

At this time, we do not have a Blu-ray release date for MONSTERS INC. We will forward your request for release to our Marketing Department for consideration."

So, I think it's safe to say that we won't see this release this year unless it's released along with the release of "Up" on home video, just as many others have been saying.

It's mostly funny that according to a Bug's Life, Monsters Inc. is available now. It's even one of those trailers before the film starts, advertised as now available on Blu-ray high-def.

Well I can say that it should be out SHORTLY very Shortly

[Blu-News.com]

Chance of Region B lock...

Cars - region free
Wall-E - locked
Ratatouille - locked
Pinocchio - locked

Doesn't look good, if you ask me.

Because they have a huge slate of movies for the theaters in the future, and each catalog BD release will sell more if tied to a theatrical new release.

The BD releases are money in the bank, and Disney doesn't want to blow Pixar's whole stock at once.

Same reason why Spielberg movies aren't out, save one.

There are two Spielberg movies out: Close Encounters and Crystal Skull.

All Pixar catalog titles have been region free and the Japanese release is also region free.

Based off of the Amazon UK site it looks more and more that the USA release will be late June. Then again I didn't see any UK Region B release for Bug's Life.... did that get delayed there or just not released over in the UK as of yet on Blu?

BVA (British Video Association) web page says that ABL was "Pulled From Schedule". Monsters, Inc. had same status but got an official date about a week ago.
