Disney Singalong Video

[jillrobinson]

I spotted this on Amazon last night "Disney Singalong - Let's go to Disneyland Paris" - I just had to order it for my niece for Christmas, obviously I'll have to watch it myself first just to make sure it plays OK.

It is old - 1996 and has been deleted and is only available on video, I think I had the only new one available but there's quite a few secondhand ones for sale as well.

I too got this on eBay a few months ago too - we haven't watched it yet, I got it more for the sake of owning another piece of DLRP merchandise than anything else!

Wow, I still use our video to record everything off the TV! We've got a DVD player now and are slowly starting to buy DVD's rather than videos, although I find we do not buy so many now that the girls are getting older.

I got rid of our videos, especially the Disney ones 2/3 years ago while they were still worth something. After that the machine was just taking up space.

I use mostly DVDs and record things with a DVD recorder but as I have 1000+ videos in the loft it'll be a while before I convert them or get them rid of them! Big problem is when Blu-ray takes over - it's not backwardly compatible with DVDs so I'll have to get them all again! Now that all the big electronics comapnies and film studios have agreed on Blu-ray as the next big thing it's inevitable too.

I just didn't have the skill and inclination to convert to DVD. Mind you I'm not sure the conversion would have been as good as full blown digital

When I look at the DVD collection it scares me to think about the next media format

I think I have that video, it's adorable!
During our first trip to Disneyland Paris in 1993, my sister was in her minnie mouse ears and playing by the Emporium -- a group of American filmmakers making a Disneyland video got my mum to sign a pile of stuff and filmed her to use in it -- so since then, we've bought every sing-a-long video etc to see if she's on it!!

If anyone's interested there IS a copy of this video on ebay at present.

Watched it tonight along with DS's 11 and 6, it's a great fun video, lots of characters and smiling kids singing well known Disney songs all set in the Park. It gives you a taster of what the park is like rather than a tour, but it's got that Disney "feel-good" quality to it.
I didn't think the boys would like it being so grown up, but the verdict was "Can we watch it again".
I'm going to try and find somebody willing to put it onto DVD otherwise I'm on the lookout for another copy for my niece.
