Disney's Vault Releases The Lion King Movie in Digital 3D, Blu-ray and DVD This Fall
But before The Lion King is released on blu-ray disc, it will return to movie theatres for a limited, two-week engagement looking like it has never looked before when Disney releases the film for the first time in 3D.
If you are a fan of 3D you will have two choices, you can make sure you get to the movie theatre during the limited two week release or, shortly afterward, you can buy it on blu-ray 3D.
Whether you choose The Lion King on blu-ray 3D or on regular high-definition blu-ray, you can be sure that Simba, Timon and Pumbaa are going to be sharper and clearer than ever before and the audio, which won 1994 Academy Awards for Best Original Score and Best Song, should be positively amazing.
If you have yet to invest in HDTV and blu-ray, you will be able to buy the DVD a month later. (Although the Platinum Edition is still available from 2003.)
On this page, you will find all of the dates involved as Disney releases The Lion King from The Vault on blu-ray and in 3D and you will learn a bit more about The Lion King 3D.

- I don't know about 3D, but Blu-Ray for sure - my second-favorite Disney film behind Beauty and the Beast. It looks like Disney isn't stopping there, either - Dumbo and The Fox and the Hound are also coming this year per http://www.filmcrave.com/dvd_new.php
