Celebrate 100 magical years of Disney with this collectible compilation of animated shorts! Mickey and Minnie share their memories in new introductions to these 10 wonderful stories, which have entertained generations of children and adults alike.

Also included are "Brave Little Tailor," featuring Mickey as a medieval tailor given a daunting task. In "Mickey’s Delayed Date," the tardy mouse relies on his faithful pup Pluto to get him to a dance with Minnie. "Hawaiian Holiday" finds Mickey and his pals vacationing on a beautiful island. Then along with friends, Mickey and Minnie glide through a romantic date on a frozen river in "On Ice." And catch five more delightful stories in this legacy collection.

That sounds so Mickey Mouse

Sorry about my reference switching from Disney to Hanna-Barbara, but maybe Scooby and the gang can find out what those meddling kids at Disney are doing to the aspect ratio of these older cartoons.

 

[Lord Dalek]

Its 1.78:1 when you include the black matte.

Contains at least a few duplicates from the 2018 release Celebrating Mickey.

As for the aspect ratio, I am pretty sure each film will be in its OAR, most will be 1.33:1 while a few may be 1.85 or wider (there were a few CinemaScope releases I believe that may be included but not listed).

My major complaint with Celebrating Mickey was that Get a Horse! was stereo rather than 5.1 (or Atmos, but we know what Disney's position is on Atmos and Blu-ray). And yes, it wasn't 3D as well...

At 10 shorts per volume, Mickey will be 200 before they get them all released.

 

[Patrick McCart]

Good thing they went with lossy audio since 83 minutes of video on a Blu-ray is really pushing the limits of how much content you can fit on a BD-25.
