They stick their good movies in the "vault" and stop making them for awhile then release them again under some guise of "remade" "enhanced" and so on and rake in the money by doing essentially nothing. Little Mermaid 1 all the way!!!!!!!!

A company that periodically rehashes older titles... why does that sound so familiar?

What are we complaining about again?

I just recently bought the lion king for 22 pounds, fucking expensive but the movie so worth it. I was thinking of getting beauty and the beast i have never seen it, but its bloody expensive on every site they sell for over 30 pounds.

All because of Disney why the fuck do they always delete their best titles, but that's allright Disney no longer makes any good movies step aside for Pixar. Pixar is running the show!

Discuss privately lol

They never have all their movies out at one time for 3 reasons.

1: people will spend more for a movie that hasn't been on sale for a long time due to the unavilability effect, shown somewhat by Wii shortages, ps3 shortages and so forth. (as in, in doesn't matter the price, get it while you can)

2: because of the rarity of these things, many become collectors items which then have an even greater potential audience among duplicate buyers, enhanced releases, specialty stores.

3: production cost of every disney movie in existence is limited as is space to store them all. Producing every movie all the time would result in waste and higher production costs.

For the $$$.

The Lion King sucks by the way. Beauty and the Beast is my favorite, along with Peter Pan and The Jungle Book. Aladdin is pretty good too.

 

I half agree with your post. Peter Pan is awesome, but Lion King is my 2nd fav disney flick . Never cared for the princess based stories - Cinderella, Beauty & the Beast, etc



Beauty in the Beast won two Oscars for best original song and score and was also nominated for Best Picture along with best sound along with two more nominations for best song.

Lion King won the same two Oscars, but was not nominated for Oscars in any other category besides best song.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I like Pixar better, I still have to see Wall-E.

*snicker*

Pixar's movies are definitely more original, but there are a lot of damn good animated Disney movies.

To make way for their shitty Hannah Montana and Camp Rock movies.



Lemme guess... Cex?



Where is the Aladdin love? No I'm not talking about the second or third. The original awesomeness!! Robin Hood is good also. You really can't go wrong with Lion King.
We actually have most Disney movies on VHS hah.
