Grandmath posts on DCP that a new souvenire DVD is coming to the resort boutiques in March 2006.
Most of the footage has been filmed past summer. Buzz Lightyear Laserblast will feature also on the dvd (probably footage from California).
Bonus on the dvd will be The making of... the dvd...
Discuss :D
You know - I'd totally forgotten about this DVD! What a nice surprise! haha :D
I can't wait to see what the finished product looks like, they seem to have put a lot of effort into making it. The bonus feature "making of" is perhaps a little bit disappointing (they could have put something about the resort's history in there, some archive footage, old tv ads... would have linked in nicely with the 15th anniversary), but it will still be nice to see how they made the video. We might even spot a few fans taking photos of the cameras! :lol:
The March release date is perfect to - just in time to catch those crowds for Buzz!
ooh i want it! how can you buy it?
Woohooo!! Great news!!! :D
Guess i really should start planning a trip then sometime this year.....
Is there any new news for this DVD? It seems to have dropped off the radar completely... :(
Still nothing on the DVD... they must either be waiting until this Summer or holding it back completely and releasing a 15th Anniversary DVD next year, perhaps.
With three new attractions opening next year along with at least one new parade, it does seem a bit stupid to release a DVD right now.
Apparently the DVD is now available and is titled "Une Aventure Magique". dlrp.co.uk says: "The DVD has just been released at the price of €20.00. It includes loads of characters in the parks as a woman remembers her visit. Bonus mini-videos - Disney Cinema Parade, Wonderful World Of Disney Parade and seasons/hotels."
:?
Oh forgoodness sake why they release it now, a bit later than March isn't it? Also I've just been and they were selling off the old ones actually believe they were stocking more on the shelves if Storybook store was anything to go by :lol: . I just hope it includes decent videos and not rubbish used time and time again official footage like the brochure dvd is.
I really hope this one is better then the old one. The old one was dissapointing in my opinion. But sure I will ´buy the new one on my next trip in september.
A friend has send me this URL, I don't know yet what the source is.

Any idea how you can buy it from the UK??
Thanks for the image, Raptor! Is that a new guide book next to the DVD? You wait for a cool new DLRP souvenir and then two come at once! :lol:
The cover of the DVD looks a little bit cheap, but it sounds like they've put a lot of effort into the actual content of the DVD this time, which is good. :) I'm looking forward to hearing more about this soon...

Yay, I'm really looking forward to the DVD--will it also be in English or only in French?
I think they should have designed the cover like the new ones of the brochures! But it's the extras that make a good DVD, not the cover ;)

Yes! That would have looked fantastic! :o But you're right it's the actual video that counts - I always get worked up about DVD covers and things, sorry. :lol:
I hadn't thought about the languages... The first DVD featured 6 (i think) languages, which could be cycled through using the normal "Audio" button on your DVD remote, so it was the same video for all. It was a good system, because the dubbing wasn't too good to start with. :wink:
Hopefully someone who has the DVD can let us know how it works on the new DVD. It'll definitely be in French
and English at least, I'm sure of that...
The extras sound very good. I'm now really looking forward to buy it. Yes the cover isn't that great. And I would like to know too if this is a new Souvenirbook. The cover of the book is beautiful, although yellow isn't the right colour to fit with the photo. :?
I've just read on DCP that the old floats (Pinocchio, Princesses Staircase, Jungle Book, ...) are include on the bonus WWODP video as well! 8)
More info from DCP:
- The menus are in the same style as the new DLRP branding (the new brochures, "believe in your dreams" stuff, etc.), it's just the cover that's in a different style. Obviously just to attract kids with the characters?
- The main feature uses a story to guide you around the parks. If I understand correctly, a boy is taking photos of practically everything that moves within the park, before Chip & Dale steal his camera and he has to go in search of it across both parks. It seems there's a little bit of humour in there, and the starring family is much less unbearable than the one on the first DVD! Apparently, the style is quite similar to those Kelloggs promotional DVDs which were released in France a couple of years ago.
- The DVD costs 19.90€, the new souvenir book costs 7.50€ The DVD has been spotted at Star Traders and the Boutique du Chateau so far.
Here's a screen capture of a scene from Agrabah Café:

Sounds pretty nice what you said about the DVD, doesn't it? :) I've never had a Souvenir DVD or Video, but I guess this one I'll buy next year. I think you could be right, the cover shall surely set the focus on the kids' attention ;) Nice to hear that the menu is held in the style of the brochures!
Does anyone of you already possess the DVD? Or isn't it out yet?
Sorry to be offtopic now, bur I always wanted to go to the Agrabah Café and it was always closed :(! Is it possible we can go there next year in June (Monday/Tuesday f.e.)?
Edit: Another question ;) What about this Souvenir book? Does anyone have something like this? What's in there, all the souvenirs of the parks? I've never seen something like this before :oops:
Quote from: "Nala_84"Does anyone of you already possess the DVD? Or isn't it out yet?
It's available now, but perhaps only from certain stores in the parks - it sometimes take a little while for it to reach all of them. Obviously it is being talked about much more on the French forums because members on there can visit more often and so are more likely to have bought a copy already!

It's very very unlikely, but you never know! It has been closed years now, and is usually used as an area to take press photos during press events. With even large restaurants such as Hakuna Matata closed a lot of the time, it's unlikely they'll reopen this one. :(

It's basically a photo guide book of the resort. There have been many others in the past, the most recent was released in 2002, so that's quite a few years ago now. It just gives you some short descriptions of the attractions and lots of photos. I guess the french name "Souvenirs de Disneyland Resort Paris" would be better translated to "Memories of Disneyland Resort Paris" or something in English. :wink:
I'll definetly buy the DVD. It sounds much better than the last one. How long is the film and the extras on the DVD ? And is it only available in the named two shops ? Or is there a chance that till September it will be available in the other shops too ?

From what I've read, it seems the runtime of the DVD is 1hour. I can't work out whether that includes the bonus features or not, but I
think it does.
It should be available in many more shops across the resort very soon, it's usually the case that new merchandise pops up in one boutique and then gradually appears in others. I guess they just get products in and stock their shelves on different rotas. :wink:
The first one was worth its money because of the extra documentary about the Main Street Electrical Parade (it even lasted longer than the main film!).
I guess the new dvd looks alright, and I'm going to buy it, but it seems to lack something that is new and interesting for the regular Resort visitors (except of course footage of a restaurant that is never open...!).
The DVD includes around 26mins of footage from the parks and 28mins of bonus extras... if I remember correctly
Wow, that ain't much.
I was hoping that the extras weren't included.
This sucks! I guess I won't buy it after all (it least not at full price).
Uh, that's really pretty expensive for so less material :( But maybe I'll buy it anyways--if you tell me whether it's worth the money :P
Here's a large scan of the full sleeve, by Raptor1982:

Can anyone who has the DVD give us a review? It seems like quite a good disc really, if the main feature really is as good as we'd all like it to be...
A woman (who you'll never see) is telling a story about her visit to DLRP. She lost her camera which got passed on to several Disney Characters throughout the movie. It shows off the resort really well, with nice camera shots and great interaction from the characters. I loved the old Donald Duck/Chip & Dale vendetta!
The DVD uses a lot of "new" footage, without using the same old B-Roll images over and over again.
There are also a few special effects, like the dragon breathing fire and magical Pocahontas leafs.
If you're a fan, you'll love this DVD because it has:
- Footage inside Agrabah Café
- Old parade floats (including the Staircase, Jungle Book, Pinocchio,...)
- Most of the bonus (like the construction of the castle)
What I didn't like:
- The Dutch translation refers to Chip and Dale as Tic et Tac (while it's Knabbel en Babbel) and Goofy as Dingo (in Dutch it's just Goofy).
- The use of certain music, especially during the footage of Mission 2 which was not the original soundtrack.
If you have specific questions, just ask. 8)
Sounds great, raptor! And the image is awesome--Concerning to what I've read in German, I'll surely buy the DVD :) I hope it won't be sold out next June ;)
I'm watching the English version now. No woman narrating now, instead it's a boy!
i'ts a really good Feature. Not too sure about the Bonus' though :?:
