About The Jungle Book 2: It’s 2 times the laughs, 2 times the thrills and 2 times the swingin’ fun when The Jungle Book 2 Special Edition comes to DVD on June 17, 2008 from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment. Available for a limited time only, The Jungle Book 2 Special Edition includes an all-new adventure game, plus enough deleted scenes, music videos, behind the scenes featurettes and games to entertain the entire family.

The Jungle Book 2 Special Edition takes fans on another thrilling, swingin’ adventure with the indomitable man-cub, Mowgli. The popular sequel to one of Disney’s most beloved films, this fun-filled musical safari has the jungle jumping again with a host of original toe-tappin’ tunes and new renditions of old favorites including The Bare Necessities. Boasting a stellar voice cast, including Haley Joel Osment as Mowgli and John Goodman as Baloo the bear, The Jungle Book 2 Special Edition provides a playful mix of music, laughs and thrills that will capture the imagination of both kids and adults for years to come.

Walt Disney’s jumpin’ jungle adventure continues in this special edition of The Jungle Book 2 — with all your favorite characters from the original, toe-tappin’ classic and more swingin’ songs! Mowgli has been living in the man-village with his little stepbrother Ranjan and his best friend Shanti. But the man-cub still has that jungle rhythm in his heart, and he misses his old buddies Baloo and Bagheera. When Mowgli wanders back to the wild for some swingin’ fun, he soon finds Baloo isn’t the only one waiting for him — the man-eating tiger Shere Khan is lurking in the shadows and planning his revenge. If he is to defeat his nemesis, Mowgli will need the help of both his old friends and his new family.

About The Sword in the Stone: Modern animation wizardry meets medieval magic in the legendary classic The Sword in the Stone 45th Anniversary Special Edition, coming to DVD on June 17, 2008 from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment. Filled with adventures, music, magic and a wondrous mixture of bonus features including an all-new game; perfect for the whole family.

Based on T.S. White’s immortal novel The Once and Future King, The Sword in the Stone 45th Anniversary Special Edition brings the legend of King Arthur to spectacular animated life in a dazzling adventure sure to entertain both adults and children. Arthur, a young squire known as “Wart,” encounters his destiny when he meets the magical wizard Merlin. This 1963 musical gem from the Disney vaults features original songs by Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman (Mary Poppins) making The Sword in the Stone 45th Anniversary Special Edition a must-own classic.

Humor, spectacle and magic rule in Walt Disney’s legendary classic tale The Sword In The Stone — now celebrating its 45th Anniversary with exciting new bonus features!

Embark on an adventure-filled quest for an unlikely hero! According to legend, only someone with honor, decency and inner strength can claim the throne of England — by pulling out the enchanted sword that lies locked in a massive stone. Many brave knights have tried, so it seems impossible that a young apprentice known as Wart could succeed. But with the guidance of the wizard Merlin, help from some hilarious friends and true strength of character, Wart just might become England’s greatest king.

There’s even more wizardry fun with marvelous new bonus features including the all-new Merlin’s Magical Academy game, animated shorts, Disney’s song selection and much more! The Sword In The Stone 45th Anniversary Edition DVD is a magical experience your whole family will want to share again and again!
