BUENA VISTA HOME ENTERTAINMENT
Buena Vista Home Entertainment (BVHE) achieved its best year in history with numerous titles that were both record-setting and award-winning.

Finding Nemo became the top-selling DVD of all time, and The Lion King 11/2 became the top-selling direct-to-video title of the year. Coupled with the successes of Disney Video Premieres such as Winnie the Pooh: Springtime with Roo and The Three Musketeers, starring Mickey, Donald and Goofy, BVHE released seven of the Top 10 direct-to-video titles of the year.

The Studios' rich library remained strong as The Lion King Platinum Edition became the best selling title ever re-released, while such classics as Alice in Wonderland Special Edition, additional volumes of Walt Disney Treasures and favorites such as the Splash 20th Anniversary Collector's Edition, proved highly successful. In October, the Platinum Edition re-release of Aladdin had strong sales and introduced "a whole new world" to DVD libraries across North America.

Looking ahead, BVHE's line-up features the Platinum Edition re-release of Bambi, The Incredibles and the Disney Video Premiere of Mulan 2.

 

 The Lion King 1 1/2 was the top-selling direct-to-video title of the year, the Aladdin Platinum Edition DVD was released in October and the Bambi Platinum Edition  DVD will be available in March.
