Disney Classics Complete 55 Disk Movie Box Set 1937-2018 [Blu-ray]

I can see what most of you are thinking, "wow that's a lot of money for this set."I get why you would think that. I've been a Disney fan my entire life, my parents always bought the VHS tapes for me so I basically had them all when I was a kid. Later on, I tried to collect all of them on DVD. I got most of them, but it was extremely hard and expensive. After I upgraded to Blu Ray later in life, I only bought the new releases on Blu Ray and didn't have the need to upgrade all of my DVD's.But this value is AMAZING. If you were to buy all of these movies seperately, you could easily end up spending 700 to 800 pounds. With this set however, you get all the amazing classics in an extremely beautiful box set.There's also a 80 page book included with stellar pages and photographs.I should note that most of these Blu Rays are seperate releases, they are just put together in a huge box. That means that some Blu Rays don't have much special features (looking at you Pinocchio) because that Blu Ray was released with a seperate blu ray disc with all those special features. Since it's only the main feature, it lacks bonus features.However, other brilliant movies like Cinderella, are basically the diamond edition releases so they have all the goodies and the extras.If you're still doubting to buy this. DON'T !! If you are a Disney fan, it's really worth it.[Sidenote: There are 5 dvd's included that never got a Blu Ray release, but your blu ray player automatically upgrades them to better quality so you hardly notice the difference since those particular movies are a little bit older and lesser known.]

Have had this a few days now and I absolutely love this collection. Ever since they started releasing the classics line on blu ray I wished and hoped that there would be a box set and this has truly met that wish. If you get the magic of Disney films and have the same passion as I do for them you’ll love this.Let me just tell you what you get. There are 50 blu rays and 5 DVDs. The blu rays are in each case the most recently released versions. There are special features included for nearly every film. For the films that had a diamond edition release only you get disc 1 but this is replaced in the case of the films that were released with the newer cases so the likes of Frozen has more. This also contains a slot for Ralph Breaks the Internet when that is released in the spring. You also get a Dorling Kindersley produced book detailing the history of the Walt Disney animation studios that would probably be worth £20-30 in itself. Despite the high price this is an absolute bargain when you work out the price of each film separately and what the diamond edition releases go for now. Needless to say it carries the usual incredibly high quality standard we have come to expect from Disney animation releases down the years.

Some people argue because there are 5 movies which aren't Blu-Ray and because Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018) is not included. Jeez man just be greatful that Disney actually put lots of time and effort for this to happen, if you own this, you should be lucky because this is a special, limited edition collection and is worth every little cent/penny. Great gift, made my girlfriend cry, so I guess that should be enough to say, that it really does make people happy, also myself actually haha!

Absolutely stunning Disney set. The set contains over 50 Disney films from their “classic” collection. The book that comes with it is what really makes it though. Lovely facts and Disney history accompanied by beautiful drawings. I know it’s a lot of money but this would make a lovely gift for a Disney fanatic! Think of it this way - if you watch one film a week that’s over a year of entertainment!

Utterly amazing. Beautiful presentation in a solid construction to appear as though it is a hardback back - note that Rescuers Down Under is present. The Rescuers Down Under disk includes and defaults to the first film at playback. Simply press top menu on remote, select play for the firm and you can then select either film. It appears blu-Ray is only generally available to include both films. This also means you have the first film twice as that has its own dedicated disk and merely both first films and rescuers down under are both on the same rescuers down under disk.

This is a true masterpiece. All the animated features together in one box set. Most are Blu Ray and the accompanying book is a nice touch. My one criticism is the lack of the animated feature Dinosaur which I thought was in the line up instead of The Wild. Still, a collection of great films at an appropriate price

To give some perspective of my existing Disney Classics collection, I owned 17 of these titles on DVD and 15 on Blu-ray. Having worked out it would cost in the region of £140 to upgrade the DVDs - and taking into account the 20+ titles not yet in my possession - I considered £250 a reasonable amount for a complete collection. If you already own each title on one format or another, this may be an unnecessary purchase, but I am not disappointed.The presentation is simply stunning. The discs are contained in a hardback, cardboard page, book format. The pages are not slight and it oozes quality. Combined with the delightful book that gives a brief history on various aspects of Walt Disney and the animated classics his studio created, this truly is a collector's item. Given the size (31cm x 31cm x 6cm) this will have to live on my bookshelf, rather than with my movies, but it does have the overall appearance of a beautiful book.The reason for deducting a star is that I am always dubious about the longevity of disc condition when having to slide in and out of a cardboard slip case rather than 'popping' out of a plastic jewel case. Also, it is a slight shame the studio didn't see fit to create a Blu-ray transfer for the listed five films. However, having all of the Classics (to date) is what I wanted and what I now have. I am thoroughly looking forward to viewing them all from the beginning.
