| Peter Pan / Platinum Edition DVD : 5 of 5 | |

 Being the Disney fan I am, it's essential for me to buy any new Platinum Edition DVD on the release date, even though the Peter Pan Special Edition still seems fresh on my mind (I can't believe it was back in 2002!). Peter Pan is such a fantastic Disney classic, and I've always loved the story, filled with adventure, excitement, pirates, indians, and the cutest pixie hips in the business. As usual, it's the bonus features that make the Platinum Editions worth buying, and there's some good stuff here! Unfortunately, the traditional Making Of segment is a mere 15 minutes (boo!), but there's a nice segment called The Peter Pan that Almost Was that does a great job of revealing several discarded story concepts (the alternate opening in Never Land was especially interesting). I also really enjoyed Why I Made Peter Pan, which has an incredible Walt Disney sound-alike reading an old magazine article, accompanied by rare photos. Speaking of photos, the galleries are pretty nice, especially the live-action reference shots. One of the best features is a new song, written by Richard Sherman using old lyrics dug out of the Disney archives (and Paige O'Hara does a wonderful job singing it). Finally, I even got a kick out of the games - Tink's Fantasy Flight is pretty exciting, but I'm amazed they put a kiddie version of Sudoku on the DVD (it takes so long just to explain the concept!). I had a great time watching the movie, and it definitely rekindled that wonderful Disney feeling just in time for my trip!
