Hey guys I recently tried playing Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs on my Blu-ray player and the disc wouldnt load. I tried getting the latest firmware and that didnt help, having a quick check around on other forums Ive noticed others had a similar problem. What should I do?

If it's my Blu-ray player does that mean that newer titles released after Snow White such as Alice in Wonderland wont work on my player either?

the Blu-ray player I currently have is the LG BD370

I think I have a similar player and had the same problem with Unstoppable. Your memory stick for BD Live may be corrupted so reformat it and everything should then be fine.

Thanks for the help, I tried playing this disc a few minutes ago and it worked, last time I tried it was after I installed the latest firmware, I guess I should have given the firmware a chance get started before shoving the disc in the player, looking forward to getting Fantasia, Bambi and Alice in Wonderland now.

Cool no problem. The Fantasia/Fantasia 2000 Blu Ray pack is great.

I just got Tangled Blu Ray by redeeming 850 Disney Movie Reward points. I have 500 left... i'll put them towards Tron Legacy.

Yeah, the prizes have been pretty drab but it seems they've given the people want they want and you can now get the likes of Beauty and the Beast, Tangled, Bambi, Tron and other decent titles besides the likes of Snow Dogs....

The Lion King in 3D is more immersive than in your face, but it is absolutely stunning! :) The colours in the remaster are gorgeous too!

I know there was a screening of it in Edinburgh on Saturday, because I saw a competition to win tickets to it.

Hope it will be shown in more locations. I want to see this. I prefer the old hand drawn animated cartoons to the new rendered cartoons.

Just bought the Tron boxset with Tron and Tron Legacy. It came with two reward codes but it only allowed me to redeem one. Only 150 points for buying two movies. Beware!

Try contacting customer services. They've added points directly to my account on the two occasions I had problems. It took a while to get a reply but once I did it was sorted in less than a day.

October 4th in the US, so the UK will probably follow soon, probably late Oct/early November. In other news Cinderella is coming out on Blu-ray next year: http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=7196

Blu Ray Trilogy Collection - Not sure what's included but I think it at least contains Blu Ray and DVD copies of all the films and a 3D Blu Ray of Lion King.

So what's the Lion King like in 3D? Is it like looking at a picture book with 2D images overlapping on a 3D plane (if I'm making sense)?

It might seem obvious to everyone else but I'm wondering how 3D works with a 2D film. I might have to see it for myself.

No idea. My only point of reference would be Clash of the Titans, which was shot in 2D and converted for release to 3D. It was ok but not as convincing as a true 3D film. Of course, that was live action and may not be representative of a converted animated film. Looks like Beauty and the Beast will be the first classic Disney animation film to be released in 3D - 3rd October. That will give us our first glimpse of what they're doing to make it 3D.

It's like watching a colourised version of Citizen Kane.

Also, I noticed I did another survey worth 50points on August the 13th. I think it's still there so if you haven't done it then it's worth taking five minutes and getting the 50pnts.

As YFU said - BOGOF starts on Monday. Do we know who usually does the cheapest price?

On an unrelated note, do new releases go onto Disney Rewards straight away? I don't know if I should wait until Lion King is released to use my points.
