BURBANK, Calif., October 5, 2006 – Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo! Disney’s original classic continues in the
all-new, animated motion picture, <b>Cinderella III: A Twist In Time</b>, premiering only on Disney DVD.
Featuring all the magic and wondrous spirit of Walt’s original “Cinderella,” this new, spellbinding story
takes a daringly different turn. When the Fairy Godmother’s magic wand falls into the wrong hands,
the glass slipper no longer fits Cinderella! Instead, her evil stepsister Anastasia is slated to marry
Prince Charming! But with her loyal mice friends, Gus and Jaq by her side, Cinderella is determined
to make things right again.

Cinderella and Prince Charming are happily married, but the evil Stepmother steals the Fairy
Godmother’s wand! In her very wrong hands, the Stepmother turns back time, and enchants the glass
slipper so that it fits her jealous daughter Anastasia instead. It’s up to Cinderella and her friends to undo
the Stepmother’s plans and get things back as they should be.

All your favorite characters return in this all-new movie. Cinderella is joined by the delightful mice duo
Gus and Jaq. Lady Tremaine the evil Stepmother once again menaces Cinderella, accompanied by
her deliciously horrible daughters Anastasia and Drizella and their wicked cat Lucifer. Prince
Charming returns with the King, and the Grand Duke, and of course there is the beloved Fairy
Godmother.

Family-friendly bonus features include a “Bibbidi Bobbidi Choose” game, where players can put the
Fairy Godmother’s wand in the hands of different characters from the movie, including Gus and Jaq.
“Cinderella’s Ballroom” DVD Rom invites viewers to enter Cinderella’s ballroom and discover a world
of beautiful gowns, music and dance. There, players can choreograph different ballroom dances, try
out different gowns, import printable photos to turn themselves into a princess or royal court member,
dance to the Princess jukebox, print Princess party invitations for their own Princess Ball and more.

Filled with enchanting new songs, including the end credit song “I Still Believe” by Hayden Panettiere,
and spectacular animation, <b>Cinderella III: A Twist In Time</b> is magical entertainment for the whole
family. Available on February 6, 2007 for U.S. $29.99 (SRP), Canada $36.99 (SRP) from Walt Disney
Home Entertainment.

Written by Steve Bencich, Ron J. Friedman, Eddie Guzman, Margaret Heidenry, Robert Reece,

So i'm still not sure what the story line is for Cinderella 3. Does the Stepmother just get the wand, and mess with Cinderella? It seems kinda strange to me. Well i'll probably just rent it when it comes out. i'm not a huge fan for the sequals.

I don't know though, maybe the cover art will sell it to me. :oops:

The last sentence from that kinda worries me. "More wonder and suspense than the original"? I just watched the making of Cinderella last night and they were talking about how this movie has some of the best suspense sequences that the company had ever made. i think this is a very big claim for this movie. maybe disney should watch their phrasing, because i'd hate to see if people hold disney to that claim. Who knows though, perhaps it'll be the best DTV yet!

Nice find. It's coming out earlier than I expected, although I actually don't care, as I don't like the sequels.

Yes! :D :o :D I can't believe it's coming out so soon. I've said this before, but with the quality of recent Direct To Video disney films, I think this one is going to be great! Following Bambi 2, Brother Bear 2 and other promising future DTV's (eg, TFatH 2) i'm extremely excited for this release.
October 3rd has past, and now I'm looking forward to February 6th! :)

I have a niece who is CRAZY about Disney Princesses. I got her a copy of the Little Mermaid today and I will definitely pick this up for her when I get me own copy. I know that sounds crazy, but she liked watching Cinderella II: Dreams come true.

Great Find!

Hey, at least Disney hasn't butchered Snow White & Sleeping Beauty & Beauty and the Beast with DTV sequels that take place AFTER the movie.
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

Luke added the coverart to the front page. And it is UGLY. The colors don't compliment each other, the big heads are strange, and it looks like the movie is trying to copy the PE release of Cinderella.

What does everyone think?
:pan: Love It.

Cover Art already! :o I'm not sure if I like it. It doesn't really look like a DVD cover, and it looks very 'clip-art'-ish. Cinderella and Lady Tremaine don't really look like themselves, but then again, the original film was over 50 years ago, so I suppose it would be hard to capture an original character from 1950.
Also, I thought the Slipper was meant to fit Drizella, not Anastasia...or maybe I just read that in D. Duster's alternate version of Cinderella 2. :?

I actually really like the cover, but think that Cinderella and Lady Tremaine's heads need to be shrunken (and the latter's face redone; she looks like a man). Based on this cover and a promotional pic we've seen, it seems Tremaine's pushing for Anastasia to be the one to marry the prince. I can only assume this is because she knows this'll prevent the relationship with the baker boy from Cindy II. This sort of leaves Drizella in the "other sister" position. Then again, there's a shot in the trailer of Tremaine shooting off the wand in the palace with Drizella behind her. Perhaps Anastasia moves into the palace and all that jazz, but since she's supposedly a protagonist, now, afer what we saw of her in Cindy II, she can't go through with the charade and quits, leaving Drizella as the favorite again.

I think the cover art looks cheap and rushed. In my opinion, it's one of the worst cover arts I've seen from Disney. I hope it isn't final.

Just answering everyones question. It was really luck finding this site because I was just bored sitting around the other day and figured hey it's got to be up sooner or later since it's suppose to be out early next year. So I just typed in www.cinderella3dvd.com and amazingly it worked! :D

In terms of cover art at least it matches the original films NEW platium edition cover art. However I am irritated it almost looks like a reused rejected design from the platium release. At least this confirms we will see the last scene from film 1 (the famous slipper fitting scene) again from a whole new perspective. That will be really cool.

:D I will keep everyone posted about this upcoming release. The minute I know something- you will to... :D

:o Oh- before I forget- I just tried a few searches for The Little Mermaid 3 but since it's not due out till early 2008 the Disney site isn't updated enough for me to get any results... But I'll keep trying... :D

I can't see the dvd's cover! Where did you actually see that? Anyway, it seems exciting to me, and I like that Tremain's dress colour is altered- I would prefer a black one though, considering that after Cinderella's wedding she is supposed to get even more wicked!
