The Incredibles swept industry awards and became the number one selling DVD of 2005, while Mulan II became the top-selling direct-to-video title of the year. With the subsequent DVD release of Disney Video Premieres' Tarzan II and Lilo & Stitch II, Buena Vista Home Entertainment (BVHE) held four of the top five direct-to-video titles of the year.
Buena Vista Home Entertainment successfully expanded its Platinum Edition strategy to two titles per year with timehonored classics Bambi and Cinderella.
Growth of key franchises such as Baby Einstein proved highly successful, including the Disney Video Premiere of Disney's Little Einsteins, which debuted as the number one preschool DVD franchise of the year.
Live-action hits National Treasure, Ladder 49 and The Pacifier sold in large numbers, and the release of the Toy Story 10th Anniversary Edition proved the "toys are back in town" when it became a favorite among DVD collectors across North America.
First season box sets of ABC's hit shows Desperate Housewives and Lost, coupled with Alias Season 4, delivered strong sales for BVHE and ABC.
BVHE continued to lead new technologies by launching its first wave of titles for PlayStation® Portable, which included Kill Bill Vol. 1, Pirates of the Caribbean and Hero. Furthering its efforts, BVHE is actively participating in the development of the next generation high definition DVD.
Looking forward, BVHE's 2006 slate features the Platinum Edition releases of Lady and the Tramp and The Little Mermaid, Chicken Little, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and the Disney Video Premiere of Bambi 2.
