MUMBAI: Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (WDSHE) has announced more innovations in the Blu-ray format with the studio's first ever platinum Blu-ray release, the Studio's first BD-Live title and full motion picture-in-picture Blu-ray bonus features. The first animated Platinum coming to the Blu-ray format will be Sleeping Beauty.

WDSHE has also announced the special edition release of the action-adventure National Treasure, which will become the studio's first BD-Live Blu-ray Disc title. In addition, it will bring two of its family classics to Blu-ray disc, Disney/Pixar's Finding Nemo and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, both of which will feature full motion picture-in-picture bonus features.

"The Platinum titles are the crown jewels of the Disney Studios and we do not take releasing them lightly on any format. The proven Blu-ray technology has allowed us to take our films to new heights, fully utilizing the larger capacity and interactive capabilities for an incredible all-new consumer experience," said Walt Disney Studios home entertainment president Bob Chapek.

Pinocchio's release on VHS and Snow White's release on DVD marked major growth milestones for both of those formats. The Sleeping Beauty Blu-ray Disc release will also include a virtual castle and multi-player activities - both utilizing the BD-Live technology, states an official announcement.
