Pinocchio 2-Disc Blu-Ray Giveaway

March 5, 2009 by GreatDad Writers 87 Comments

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.

    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.

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 🙂

    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.

    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.
