from thedigitalbits:
The big one is Disney's revelation that The Little Mermaid is due to be their next classic animated title to receive Platinum Edition treatment. Look for the 2-disc set to hit stores on 10/3 (SRP $29.99). This is the first time in 7 years that the film will be available on DVD. Expect deleted scenes, audio commentaries and behind-the-scenes featurettes, along with archived art materials and musical-based features as well. Both the film and its soundtrack are being digitally restored for the release. There's no word yet on a possible Blu-ray Disc version of the film, but we consider it very possible.

This one must be included in my dvd shelves. "Platinum release portion"

But I still don't have Snow White platinum :'(

I will buy this DVD even if I already have the limited release version (na walang extras, bwisit!). I consider this film to be one of my all-time favorites, and I'll make sure to get the most complete version kahit gaano kamahal.

seph1018 · « **Reply #12 on:** Feb 07, 2006 at 12:09 PM »

I already wanna see what the Gift Set would look like. Disney better give this one a Gift Set treatment because of it's classic status.

classicman · « **Reply #13 on:** Feb 07, 2006 at 06:47 PM »

will just settle for the ordinary platinum release as usual, mahal ang gift set eh

seph1018 · « **Reply #14 on:** Feb 08, 2006 at 12:05 PM »

I usually go for the ordinary PE release also...but I'll make an exception for this one.

Among the Disney DVD news it bears is that the fall's two-disc The Little Mermaid: Platinum Edition will offer "behind the scenes, all-new games, secrets and more" (who'd have guessed?!), the upcoming Chicken Little will contain at least one Easter Egg (access instructions are offered), and June's Dumbo: Special Edition will include (not unlike the 60th Anniversary Edition) "an all-new rendition of 'Baby Mine,' sing along songs, two bonus cartoons, and much more."

from Ultimatedisney:

While Disney has yet to formally announce the contents of this October's Platinum Edition re-release of The Little Mermaid, they have passed on a few details to retailers, which naturally went public very quickly. Those details confirmed a Collector's Gift Set will be offered for the 1989 hit and revealed that the two-disc set will include an all-new digital restoration, an all-new Disney Enhanced Home Theater Dolby 5.1 soundtrack, "FastPlay", deleted scenes, "The Story Behind the Story" on Hans Christian Andersen, "The Making of The Little Mermaid", the Imagineer-spawned Little Mermaid Virtual Ride, an all-new music video, a sneak peek at The Little Mermaid III, and "much, much more." That last part remains to be announced.
