I also want to point out the main menu for the first disc, at this point. Kudos Disney! In "Music & More", the obligatory music video for a contemporary pop-band cover of a classic Disney song (in this case "Once Upon a Dream" as performed by Emily Osment) is included, as well as the "Disney Song Selection" that lets you jump to the five different songs in the film, with lyrics shown on screen so you can sing along.

The Oscar-winning short film "Grand Canyon" (29-min) is included here, in full HD, and it looks great - much better than the old 2003 DVD version that had been included. The remaining extras on the first disc include a "Dragon Encounter Audio Sensory Experience" (4.5- minutes), which is a new 3D animated "first person" short film that will take advantage of your home theater setup to immerse you in a small adventure But just in case there was no stone left unturned, the "Princess Fun Facts" trivia track will likely fill in the remaining gaps.

Using the "Cine-Explore" feature, this commentary is transformed into a visual one, with an array of pop-up windows featuring stills and archival video - you\'ll learn pretty much everything you didn\'t know about the movie in this process. First up is a new feature length commentary track, featuring film historian Leonard Maltin, Pixar director John Lassetter, and Walt Disney animator Andreas Deja.
Last released on DVD back in 2003, Walt Disney Home Video has gone back into the vault to not only bring us all of the extras from that release, but a whole bunch of new exclusive and exploratory extras. It\'s the best this film is ever going to sound, and kudos to the folks at Disney for putting the original mix on there as well as the new enhanced home theater one. On the Blu-ray, audio is presented in DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 English (the new home theater mix) as well as the original four-channel soundtrack, fully restored and delivered in 4.0 Dolby Digital English. The original scoring sessions for the music was found, and then all of the dialogue/effects were restored and cleaned up. I can\'t even say there is grain - it\'s a truly amazing image considering it came from a film source that is nearly 50 years old. Colors are pure, the framing is rock solid, and there is no compression or dirt at all. Now released on Blu-ray disc (and Special Edition DVD), Sleeping Beauty can be seen not only as it was originally intended to be presented, but with a restored and cleaned up image (from the original negative) as well as a new 7.1 home theater mix from the original audio elements.
However, due to Cinemascope standards at the time, the film was generally seen at the projected (cropped) ratio of 2.35:1. With an orchestral underscore and songs adapted and based on Tchaikovsky\'s classic "Sleeping Beauty Ballet", Sleeping Beauty runs a brisk 75-minutes long, and was originally shot in the "Technirama" process, giving the film an effective widescreen aspect ratio of 2.55:1. The last animated film that the Walt Disney Studios hand-inked, Sleeping Beauty tells the classic fairy tale about a young princess who is cursed and falls asleep after pricking her finger on a spinning wheel, only to be rescued by a prince when his true love\'s kiss wakes her and the rest of the kingdom up. Indeed, it would take numerous theatrical re-issues and home video releases before the film would finally break even. Long considered a classic, Walt Disney\'s 1959 animated adaptation of Sleeping Beauty was actually not initially a financial success.
