Not very impresive, but met expectations
This review is for the Trilogy packaging only- not a review of the movies themselves.
I'm a big Disney collectors, and typically pre-order every upcoming title. I was very excited to see the Cinderella Trilogy being release in a collectable box just as the Lion King was recently. For anyone who can remember, many years back Disney release Aladdin, Cinderella, and The Lion King (all linked below for reference) in collectable boxed platinum editions with a story book, lithographs, and nice keepsake package. I thought that these trilogies were going to be released again in a similar fashion, all the boxes would be similar, similar materials related to the films, etc. Instead, the Lion King set with a drum shaped box inner box which was essentially useless beyond a collectors point of view, but also included the 3D copy of the original feature, and lacked blu-ray copies of the sequels. For this Cinderella release, there is no 3D release, period, but the blu-ray copies of both...
Dissappointed
Cinderella is a classic movie - I have yet to watch the other two, but Being Disney animation, Im sure they're great... I bought this set for the 3 movies - 3 Disney movies in DVD and Bluray for $65 is a pretty good price, but I got my hopes up with the rest of the set... I was expecting a small story book, not a DVD case with 6 pictures. And for the Jewelry box, I was expecting a cheaply made wood/fiber board box, what I got was a paperboard bow with drawers - defiantly not something I would give a kid to play with. Overall I got what I wanted, but was very disappointed with the extra stuff
What really upset me was that this set was released on the 5 October... I preordered it in May, but it took over a week to even ship and then 5 days shipping when I pay for Amazon Prime... in the end, this was the first Amazon order that I was really disappointed with
Rating for misleading advertisement not the movies themselves
I am very disappointed with the Amazon title for this purchase. It let me to believe that I was buying the bluray, DVD and Digital Copy for all 3 Cinderella movies. What you get is Cinderella 1 as digital, the rest are disk format. As a grandmother, I prefer the digital copy. We play the digital versions on our Apple TV, but more importantly, we use them in the car on our IPOD connected to the car DVD player. We can control the iPod up front and change out movies for our grandchildren without having to stop the car. I already owned Cinerella 2&3 on DVD, so this needlessly duplicated my inventory and the cardboard jewelry box was throwaway junk. Very disappointed in Amazon.
