Tinkerbell DVD Special features
Tinkerbell after many years comes to DVD just in time for
Christmas 2008.
The DVD contains some special features such as
- Pixie Hollow:
- Tinker Trainer - An All-New DVD-ROM Activity
- Magical Guide To Pixie Hollow - Discover The Ancient Realm of Fairies With Tinke
- Ever Wonder - Discover How Fairies Put the "Wonder" In Natural Wonders
- The Mainland:
- Creating Pixie Hollow - See How The Filmmakers Created This Magical Realm
- All-New Music Video - Performed By Disney Channel's Selena Gomez
- Deleted Scenes
As well as the above extra scenes the bonus section contains a 3-level game called
"Tinker Trainer". The game is designed to test the most adept
tinker-in-training.
The first bonus featire is about "Pixie Hollow" and this is a magical
guide and an interactive tour of the film's primary setting courtesy of Tinker Bell and Queen Clarion.
The DVD also contains a rather unusual short called "Ever Wonder" ute
short. Live children run around doing normal childhood activities while computer-animated Tinker Bell and her
fellow fairies fly around performing important tasks like fixing wagon wheels, protecting butterflies from
galloping kid feet, and rescuing kites from trees.
Is a Disney release ever complete without a cheesy music video? "Fly to Your
Heart" (3:15), performed by "Wizards of Waverly Place" star Selena Gomez, fulfills the requirement this time
around. And don't worry; it's just as fluffy and forgettable as it's supposed to be. If you've never found Selena
Gomez annoying before, here is a golden new opportunity!
Access to a surprisingly substantive yet hidden section called "The Mainland" can
be found by exploring the bonus features menu.
Tinker Bell's Deleted
Scenes
There are also 6 deleted scenes. The
first two depict Clarion doing something magical with pixie dust. Then Tink and her friends experience the Mainland
for the first time. These are fully animated, while the rest showcase rough hand-drawn sketches. The scenes run 10
minutes and 45 seconds altogether, but if you would like some insight into them, you should choose to watch them
with on-camera introductions by director Bradley Raymond and producer Jeannine Roussel. The group runs 13 minutes
this way, and they disappear before the scenes start, allowing you to enjoy them in their
fullest.
