Burbank, California, October 17, 2008—The film that taught the world to “Wish Upon a Star” shines brighter than ever when Walt Disney’s original classic, Pinocchio: 70th Anniversary Platinum Edition is released from the Disney vault on March 10, 2009.  Available for the first time in high-definition and 2-Disc DVD, Pinocchio is brilliantly restored with enhanced picture and sound unlike anything you’ve ever seen or heard before. This classic story of magic, adventure and loyalty will be available for a limited time only and comes loaded with bonus features that unlock the doors to the magical world of Pinocchio.

Walt Disney’s second animated feature, Pinocchio debuted 70 years ago with vibrant hand drawn animation, universally loved music like the Academy Award® winning original song “When You Wish upon a Star,” and a touching story that made it an instant classic. Introducing audiences to the magical favorites of Pinocchio, Geppetto the puppet maker and the Blue Fairy, Pinocchio also marks the screen debut of a character who became one of Disney’s signatures: the fast-talking, wisecracking Jiminy Cricket.
    
The special 2-Disc Blu-ray release not only includes a bonus standard definition DVD of the classic animated film in the same package, allowing viewers the opportunity to enjoy Pinocchio on a standard def DVD while they are preparing to upgrade to a 1080p Hi-Def Blu-ray experience in the near to present future, but provides viewers accessibility to Disney’s popular BD-Live Network, a backstage pass for Blu-ray Disc owners to chat, video stream, participate in communal games and download exclusive content unavailable to general DVD owners.

I received a name book eventhough my husband and I had our baby names for 4 boys and girls before we even got pregnant.

By Lily,   From Las Vegas
a diaper warmer, because I didn't need it

By Louise,   From Dayton
What a great classic!

By Ryan,   From Stow
We received a bear that plays heartbeat sounds. It always freaked our kids out.

By Gus,   From El Paso
We were given jewelry (necklaces, bracelets) for our newborn girls. They were literally tiny to fit them as newborns.

By Kathy,   From Richmond
the baby food spinner

By Connie,   From Renton
A toy that turned out to be a dog toy! Never did understand why.

Thanks for the contest!

Connie

By Timothy,   From Aventura
The thing that's a harness but looks like a dog leash!!!

By Linda,   From Cincinnati
Umm, the thing that's a harness but looks like a dog leash!!!

By Devon,   From Richmond
a scottie dog sweater that she wouldn't grow into for a decade or more

By Paul,   From Omaha
I received two giant baby bottles (full of equally useless stuff) at a dad-baby shower at work. Embarassing to walk through the building carrying those! Big, goofy looking, and a complete waste of space. I think we gave them to Goodwill at some point.

By Jamie,   From Erie
Old fashion diaper pins (and they smelled like cigarettes).

By Vincent,   From New Milford
A subscription to a cloth diaper service. Although very green, also very stinky

By Amy,   From Hillsboro
I hated the diaper genie. Couldn't use it easily with one hand, and who wants to pay for their special bags?

By Kathleen,   From State College
I would have to say a wipes warmer. I never used it because I felt it was very dumb. Thanks!

By Casey,   From Overland Park
I got a diaper warmer with an adapter to plug it into the cigarette lighter in your car.

By Debbie,   From Carthage
I think it was a hand holder -
but it looked more like a dog leash

By Buddy,   From Jefferson
A baby wipe warmer Oh really

By Rose,   From Covington
We had trouble with our Diaper Genie, too. One time, somehow I cut the bag inside and I had a huge mess!

By Peggy,   From Preston
My son recieved a doll that was anitomically correct. Too funny ,a boy doll,we had many laughts with that doll and everyone wanted to see the peepee


By Don,   From Richmond
a baby bath robe

By MARSHA,   From NATICK
A BABY WIPE WARMER

By Landy,   From Gilroy
Diaper Genie. We got two used ones as gifts, never used them. Had no bags in them. Replacements were expensive. Takes up space. Just used plastic bags and if the smell was bad dumped them in to the garage. We finally gave them to someone else.

By Robert,   From Panama City
We received a video monitor as a gift. It really was a ridiculous gift and expensive when a regular voice monitor will do the trick.We would rather not watch pur child all night long o a closed circuit tv. We returned it for a gift card.

By Shelly,   From Tempe
A blanket with a piece of foam inserted in it in case you thought you would let the baby's head flop....

By Tammy,   From SD
We received a teddy bear that had a hole in it's head to put a baby bottle. ???? Like I was going to hold a teddy bear while feeding my baby? And by the time baby was old enough to hold the bottle herself, the bear was way to unwieldy to hold for her anyway.

By Ed,   From Skokie
A baby headband; they are so unnecessary and unbecoming!

By Holly,   From Butner
That Mommy Bear that has the fake heartbeat.

By cathleen,   From streamwood
I'm laughing hysterically at these entries!! The dress for a boy and belly bands are making me crack up as I type this!! I really don't have anything to top those posts!!! Toys that are corny like that do the chicken dance or sing oldies songs -yeah, broken and mute. Those are VERY popular (obviously g-sale or thrift store) re-gifted er, "gifts" Thanks for the entry! Pinocchio is such a sweet movie :)

By Katie,   From gilberts
A "diaper champ" just a glorified garbage pail.

By LisaM,   From Nacogdoches
A changing table which I never used. I always changed the baby on the bed or couch

By christopher,   From elk grove
ear plugs, its not like i could use them

By Sue,   From Crocker
baby wipe warmer

By Jerry,   From Middleton
Diaper Genie, no matter what we did it never worked right and have you ever smelled a day (or longer) old diaper? When you open this thing it was like being slapped in the face with a landfill! How hard really is it to step outside your door and dispose of the diaper in 1 minute or less? I think I spent more time trying to get this thing to work then in a year of walking out to the trash can outside. Waste of money and time.

By Wei,   From Houston
Wow, and I thought I was the only one who got the car adapter bottle warmer and thought it was dumb.

By James,   From Anaheim
Mine was the sterling silver spoon, like I'm really going to use that or try to keep it clean from tarnish. It's in a drawer somewhere.

By Sara,   From Richmond
a baby bathrobe

By Timothy,   From Lexington
I liked my diaper genie. A weird baby tub shaped like a bear, however, was not used by us.

By Dallan,   From norcross
The car bottle warmer was gimpy. Thanks for the cahnce

By Christine,   From Milwaukee
Has to be the diaper genie...could not figure out how to use it and in about a week it broke anyway. Thanks for the chance!!!

By Gloria,   From Virginia Beach
a used Monopoly Game , note said he will grow into it

By Jennifer,   From Thayer
enter me

By Tim,   From Chico
Enter me into the contest please!

By Sonya,   From San Jose
I got a baby food spinner (for storing) and a wipes warmer. I know some people use these things but not me!

By Mary,   From Sullivan
While I appreciated the thought behind the gift, probably the Diaper Genie was about the most stupid, useless gift we ever received! Overpriced, one-more-space-wasting item, just plain silly! But, the givee meant well and that was what was important :)Thanks for another great giveaway!

By Molly,   From Citrus Heights
I personally think the diaper wipe warmer is a waste of money & space.

By joshua,   From poplar bluff
a stainless steel sippee cup.

By Rosanne,   From Rockford
Probably crocheted blankets. Thought they were itchy and didn't want baby throwing up on them

By joni,   From Erie
a needle point w/y baby's wrong D.O.B. and the wrong weight. The thought was nice and the effort that it took to make but it just didn't mean anything since the info was wrong.

By Gayle,   From Parma
The car adapter bottle warmer. Never used it, and wouldn't think to use it.

By William,   From Prescott Valley
A bottle holder that ties the bottle to the baby.

By Pamela,   From Carmel
Well I don't know if it was the dumbest, but the ugliest (hence dumbest) was some God awful knitted dress thing that someone made for my daughter when she was born. I know it's supposed to be the thought that counts, but MAN that thing was ugly!!!

By Geri,   From Boca Raton
It doesn't really apply to me, but I've had relatives and friends who've mentioned the uselessness of the diaper genie.

By Jill,   From Hendersonville
For me it was definitely the Diaper Genie.
I could never get it to work properly or get the refills in properly.
Thank you so much for offering this wonderful giveaway :)

By Angela,   From Miramar
I don't remember anything stupid. I actually liked the diaper genie. They didn't have the wipe warmers then. That seems pretty stupid to me.

By Vergie,   From New Site
Don't tell the truth and see what happens.

By Britton,   From Bellingham
cloth diapers...

By Karen,   From Bridgeport
I can't recall any dumb baby gifts, but I remember getting alot of certain items and not enough of others. With my second child I was much more prepared, I really knew what I would need !!

By Ashley,   From Austin
I think being given a baby robe was pretty unnecessary. Getting a wet, wiggly baby into a bathrobe is not an easy task!

By Belenda,   From Springfield
I have no children so I've never been given any baby products.

By Ken,   From Keyport NJ
Probably a set of elephant ears. Please accept my entry. Thank you.

By Steve,   From Hailey
Please and thank you.

By Monique,   From PUyallup
The bottle prop up thing. I would never leave my baby unattended while she eats!! Thanks for the chance.

By Donna,   From sharpsville

By Robert,   From Castro Valley
portable toilet

By Jim,   From Nashua

By Mike,   From Holiday

By Kathy,   From Westerly
I've never gotten a silly or dumb baby gift, but I did have a baby wipe warmer....it was completely useless.

By Karen,   From Wingdale
I have never gotten a silly baby gift. If you can't use it personally, give it to someone who can!

By Sonia,   From Newman
Dress for a boy.

By Susan,   From Olathe
diaper wipe warmer sounds like a waste of money

By Toby,   From Brooklyn
Great prize!

By Angela,   From Lakeport
I don't know about "dumb" but for my older children, they used to sell "belly bands" you'd snug around the baby to keep the belly button an "innie"

By Rose,   From Jackson
I have to go with the diaper wipe warmer as well. It's a waste of space when they are little, and a danger when they are toddlers (one more plug in the house...which we all know toddlers love).

By leloni,   From Madison
I can't wait to see this again..

By Sheila,   From Kansas City
Diaper genie, they dont work for nothing! You can use a plastic bag, and it does better than those things!

By Tom,   From Auburn
Hope I win!

By Carol,   From Wayne
I got a thing to warm baby wipes. It was ridiculous.

By Denyse,   From Seminole
The diaper genie. I couldn't set it up correctly and the refills were so expensive and added more plastic to the environment. I never did buy any refills and couldn't even give it away for free.

By marge,   From prescott
my grandson would love this

By Marcia,   From Manahawkin
I can't remember any dumb baby gifts but I do have a pet peeve about baby/toddler stuffed animals that aren't washable

By Andrew,   From reminderville
we never received any silly baby gifts

By Tammy,   From Cocoa
Please enter me--my grandson would love this--

By Janna,   From Columbus
