    Default Sleeping Beauty

    The Platinum Edition DVD of Sleeping Beauty will be released next month!

    Are any of you fans of Sleeping Beauty?

    I will get it for my collection's sake, but I don't like Sleeping Beauty. This summer I watched it for the first time (basically), and I thought it was boring. I think its soundtrack isn't memorable/impressive/good; it irks me that "sleeping beauty" is sung again and again by a chorus throughout the movie. Also, if I'm not mistaken, some of the dialogue in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is reused in Sleeping Beauty, and one might say that Sleeping Beauty is nothing more than a bad rendition of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. \(" 0 " /)

    Aurora is cute, but she's absent during most of her movie and replaced by rabble.

    I adore Sleeping Beauty. I love the music (being that its taken from the original ballet), the detail of the animation is awesome, and Maleficent is the coolest Disney villian ever. Walt Disney even refered to Sleeping Beauty as "his masterpiece".
    I do own it on DVD, but will be buying the new edition..

    Isn't it the first Disney Classic to be released on Blu Ray? Whee. ^__^

    Personally, while I enjoy it to some degree, it's not one of my favorites. It's rather bland and drags out a bit. But it does have a great villain.

    Also, the arranged married couple finding and falling in love to fulfill their arranged marriage is a bit creepy.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    As a kid I watched all of Disney's classics. We had like 50 video tapes with that stuff. xD

    I like Robin hood better. It had an fox in it! xD

    Or the Aristocats! :O Those were awsome.

    Aah, that brings me back. I did enjoy them back then.

    But even Cinderella was better than Sleeping beauty.

    I liked it a lot. I remember being surprised a long time ago because Maleficent says the word "hell".

    Mondachan, have you read the fairy tales of sleeping beauty and snow white?

    Snow White had a sister Rose Red and they lived out in the forest and got attacked by creepy gnome-dudes and were saved by a prince in a bear-guise. That's pretty cool. Disney thing pales in comparison, but maybe I'm just biased because I hate her shirley temple voice in the movie xD

    Sleeping beauty is pretty much about how the disney movie was portrayed! Plus the atmosphere is gooooooorgeous. It's got that macabre twist to it with the grey gloomy atmosphere, Malificent, etc~~~~ Plus Briar Rose is by and large a well-adjusted young female without being annoying like Belle ("books!? OH I LOVE BOOKS! I WOULD HAVE SEX WITH THEM IF I COULD"). She has a mischievous streak with those she's familiar with (the forest animals, flora fauna and merryweather)

    anyways I just really like it because phillip's horse is funny and I love the outfit she wears as briar rose and because it's GREAT

    Still, the best version of sleeping beauty is seen in Shrek. xD

    I haven't!

    I might like Sleeping Beauty, if Aurora sang more than one song and had a longer presence in the movie! Also, I like the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5ape4k9MxM" target="_blank">evil queen</a> more than <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCV0hy6ex1c" target="_blank">Maleficent</a>, but Maleficent is pretty cool. :kaohappy:

    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0niwn2pOEno" target="_blank">I'm surprised that you don't like Snow White's voice; I think it's adorable and incomparable!</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQZ6zzLpoNQ" target="_blank">Her songs are perfect!</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBHQtfsB42s" target="_blank">I can't think of a Disney movie that's more perfect than Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, even though it isn't my favorite.</a> :kaohappy2
