Walt Disney plans to release select titles from its film library in the Sony-backed Blu-ray Disc format beginning in September. Interactive features, personalized chapter selections and online capabilities for the Blu-ray formatted movies are in the works, the company said.
Beginning Sept. 19, Buena Vista Home Entertainment will start releasing select titles, including Walt Disney Pictures' "Dinosaur" and "Eight Below," on Blu-ray. Those two movies will feature exclusive high-definition short films, called Blu-Scape, which were inspired by the movies and shot by Louie Schwartzberg, who directed "America's Heart and Soul." Miramax Films' "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" and "The Great Raid" also will be released in September.
