Picture this, chestnuts roasting on an open fire, a huge christmas tree covered in beautiful decorations, presents dotted here, there and everywhere and brightly coloured stockings hung with care. A toy train snakes its way through the brightly coloured present mountains and so it is that the scene is set, ready for the festivities to begin! So this is how the scene is set for the Disney dvd, Winter Wonderland.
This dvd is in effect a compilation dvd of new and old Disney clips, featured on this single disc is:
" jingle bells", "deck the halls" and "we wish you a merry christmas", three classic carols sung in the Disney way by all the old characters(Mickey, Donald,Goofy, Minnie, Daisy and Pluto). This clip is taken from Mickeys once upon a christmas, another wonderful feel good christmas film.
"Once upon a wintertime", which is taken from melodytime, a beautifully classic cartoon, animated simply, and portraying the love and upheaval between a young couple ( he effectively just acts like a lad, he smooches, he agrevates her, she falls out with him and finally he creeps and gets back in her good books, all done with lovely background music of course!!!)
"Bambi on ice", movie clip, which is taken from Bambi and features the funny scene where Bambi trys (unsuccesfully!!) to skate on a frozen pond, being egged on (and shown up, due to the the other character having got larger feet!), by his new friend Thumper the rabbit.
"Pablo the cold blooded penguin", which is taken from the film "the three caballeros", is a delightful full length cartoon about the only penguin at the north pole who craves the sun on his back and warmth in his bones, and his journey to warmer climats and his eventual journey back to his family and friends.
"Wart pulls sword from the stone" movie clip, which is taken from "The sword in the stone", is the moment when Wart (Arthur) pulls the sword from the stone and realises his life will never be the same again, and the enevitable squabbeling for the sword when everyone realises that whomever pulls the sword becomes king!!!
The final clip is by far my favourite,it is "As long as theres christmas", which is from the follow on film from beauty and the beast called "The enchanted christmas", which tells the story of the first christmas with beauty and the beast BEFORE they fall in love ( i know confusing!!!), the song is sung by Belle to all the enchanted people in the castle to lift there spirits as the prince has banned christmas, due to him being turned into the Beast at the same time the previous year.
The only extras on this dvd are 2 interactive games Snowball madness game and santas helper game.
Running times : 47 minutes approx.
Price: I actually brought this dvd on special offer from woolworths last christmas for my daughter it only cost me £5. I have seen it on sale for £9.99, but as with all Disney films the price variates dramatically depending on where you go.I think the best place to check out for Disney is www.ebay.co.uk or for any of the films already mentioned in this review visit www.disney.co.uk/disneydvds.
This is not THE best christmas dvd i have ever seen, but if you are old enough to remember the Disney compilation programme they used to show years ago on bbc1, sunday tea time, and enjoyed it, this is definatley the dvd for you.
