    Description
    Product Description:
      Awaken your senses to the majesty of SLEEPING BEAUTY, Walt Disney's classic fairy tale. See more than you've ever seen before through the magic of state-of-the-art technology, and experience this groundbreaking film restored beyond its original brilliance, in the way Walt envisioned it pristine, beautiful, utterly breathtaking. SLEEPING BEAUTY will transform your home into a fantastic world your family will want to experience again and again.
    Bonus Features In the original story, Princess Aurora sleeps for 100 years before being awakened by a prince's kiss. In the Disney version, Prince Philip comes to her rescue much sooner.
    George Brun's orchestral score, which was nominated for an Academy Award, expertly blended famous themes from Tchaikovsky's ballet.
    With a budget that exceeded $6 million in 1959, this was Walt Disney's most lavish and expensive animated feature to date.
    Determined to make the characters as realistic as possible, Disney had a live action film shot with actors posing as Sleeping Beauty, the Prince, and Maleficent, for the animators to use.
    New York Times critic Bosley Crowther called the fight between Prince Philip and Maleficent the noisiest and scariest go-round he (Disney) has ever put into one of his films.

    From Amazon.com:
      Disney's 1959 animated effort was the studio's most ambitious to date, a widescreen spectacle boasting a gorgeous waltz-filled score adapting Tchaikovsky. In the 14th century, the malevolent Maleficent (not dissimilar to the wicked Queen in Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs) taunts a king that his infant Aurora will fatally prick her finger on a spinning wheel before sundown on her 16th birthday. This, of course, would deny her a happily-ever-after with her true love. Things almost but not quite turn out that way, thanks to the assistance of some bubbly, bumbling fairies named Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. It's not really all that much about the title character--how interesting can someone in the middle of a long nap be, anyway? Instead, those fairies carry the day, as well as, of course, good Prince Phillip, whose battle with the malevolent Maleficent in the guise of a dragon has been co-opted by any number of animated films since. See it in its original glory here. And Malificent's castle, filled with warthogs and demonic imps in a macabre dance celebrating their evil ways, manages a certain creepy grandeur. --David Kronke

    Sleeping Beauty [Blu-ray] DVD Review
    Sleeping Beauty was a childhood favorite of mine and still is! I just love this fairytale classic. I used to watch this film over and over again, I wore out my VHS copy many years ago and can't wait for this to be released in the fall. I highly recommend this gorgeous fable, enjoy future and past generations!!

    Sleeping Beauty [Blu-ray] DVD Review
    everything about my purchase was great. i recieved the vhs tape promptly. the seller even wrote me personally and thanked me for my purchase and taking the time to give him a rating. i thought that was nice, since ordering online can be so impersonal.
    Should be a great addition to the disney BLU-RAY store - 5 stars
    Sleeping Beauty [Blu-ray] DVD Review
    So, this has always been a great movie. I know that this will look spectacular on BLU-RAY.

    I just have one question: Does any body know when the other original disney movies will be released on BLU-RAY??

    Not one of my fave Disney films - 3 stars
    Sleeping Beauty [Blu-ray] DVD Review
    For some reason, and I can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm really not into Sleeping Beauty. I adore Disney movies and have seen pretty much every one, with the exception of a couple. This does not rank high on my list. The story never really interested me, the music was just OK. It came as a bit old fashioned for me.
    That said, It's certainly not a bad movie by any means, just not as enjoyable as some of the other brilliant ones out there.

    Bogus Reviews on a Disc Not Yet Released But... - 5 stars
    Sleeping Beauty [Blu-ray] DVD Review
    I am in the Sleeping Beauty camp. This is the first film I remember seeing in a movie theater in 1959, I was all of three years-old but the imagery has remained with me and this is my favorite of all the "Fairy Tales" Walt put out.

    I can't wait for the Blu-ray release (and this coming from a former HD DVD fan.) But you go with the flow with high def. Anyone who gets a prescreen copy let me know, I don't have a lot of patience.

    I am looking forward to real reviews once the discs are out.
