No New Features, Mar 1 2011
By Paul Jackson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: DINOSAUR - 2-DISC BD COMBO PACK (BD+DVD) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
This copy of Dinosaur is just a reprint of the 2007 Blu Ray and 2001 DVD. Same features as before. If you like the movie get it. If you wanted to see brand new bonus material. You may be disappointed.

Early reports say no new extras., Jan 27 2011

This review is from: DINOSAUR - 2-DISC BD COMBO PACK (BD+DVD) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand the visual execution of Dinosaur is superb and is a work of art all its own. On the other hand even for a PG movie the story and writing often times fall to the extremely predictable Disney formula of animated feature films. Dinosaur does give a lot of unexpected pleasure all things considered.First off the computer animation is excellent. The mix of live action backgrounds with the CGI are practically flawless and very well done. As far as the animation is concerned I was very impressed. It goes a few steps beyond what I saw in the Toy Story series. The first ten minutes of the movie are completely breathtaking, and it happens to have absolutely no dialog. If only the script followed suit.
The story flows just like every other Disney animated film. As if the scripts of your standard Disney animated feature film were not disappointing enough they go and make great pains to say this is a unique and more adult oriented movie yet stick with the same tired and overused Disney formula. And if that's not bad enough they go with the same premise as Don Bluth's The Land Before Time. Why is it you can't make an animated dinosaur movie that takes a LONG time before the cataclysmic meteor hits the earth. Dinosaurs were around for millions of years yet everyone is fixated with making movies with that moment in mind alone. I mean come on guys! Think outside the box for once.
This release seems to be essentially a repackaging of the single disk Blu-Ray and possibly the single disk DVD. I know the Blu-Ray will have the exact same features as the one released back in 2006. I cannot yet confirm if the DVD is also going to just be the single disk released a while back. Either way if you are into special features it appears the original Two Disk Collector's Edition DVD is still the way to go. If you already have the Blu-Ray then you're really not getting anything special here. This is only for those who missed out on the standard edition disks previously and want the flexibility of having both disks.
In spite of the utterly predictable plot Dinosaur is still a real treat for the eyes. I am still debating whether or not I would have preferred the movie if it had no dialog. That would have at least reduced some of the pains I felt enduring a plotline I must have seen dozens of times over the past 20 years. I wouldn't recommend this to little kids, so parents watch out and be prepared. The older kid crowd might get a kick out of it and you adults who can appreciate beautiful visuals and forgive the rest will like it too.

Ive always loved this movie when I had it on VHS and this was the first time I bought it on DVD so I was glad to find its on both blu ray and dvd. Going from remembering the vhs to blu ray color was amazing beautiful color and really great movie.
