- Pinocchio Walt Disney's Second Greatest Masterpiece!
Whoopee!! At long last Disney is re-releasing this classic animated motion picture on Platinum Edition DVD! This is a marvellous treat for all animation fans everywhere !!

Disney's second full length animated feature is full to the brim with delights , and marvellous characters , such as Jiminy Cricket , Gepetto, the Blue Fairy , Pinocchio himself , Figaro the Cat , and Cleo the Mae Westian Fish , plus of course the darker elements of the story , namely the Fox John Worthington Foulfellow and his mute sidekick the Cat , the excitable Stromboli, the bad influence Lampwick , the chilling Coachman "Oh they never come back as Boys!! The sequence of Lampwick's transformation ( and not to spoil things I'll say no more ! ) is terrifying!

The film is full of exquisite detail , and through the extensive use of the - at the time - State of the Art Multiplane Camera* gives hitherto unseen effects of ... Read More

- Finally, one of Disney's very best!
I am so excited that this title is finally being released first time Platinum Edition. This movie is one of Disney's very best. The animation is so beautiful and detailed. The character development is wonderful and the soundtrack is fantastic. It is amazing to think that at the time it was released in the theaters it was a financial failure. Walt wanted to make sure that the quality of the animation and the movie did not suffer, even if it meant losing money on it, which it did. BUT, through the years the obvious magic of this movie captured so many hearts, that eventually it came on top and made movie making history. So here is to all of us that dare to dream and wish upon a star. Pinoke.... you will forever be in my heart!

- MAY JUST BE WALT'S VERY BEST
Everybody has a different Disney favorite but Pinoccio is surely mine. This is the stuff of childhood dreams (and nightmares also). Personally I think this is the one animated movie with the biggest heart of all. My only complaint: having to wait over 10 years of the DVD revolution before finally getting a decent edition, anyway, that will only make this release more of an event.
