Pixar’s classic tales A Bug’s Life (1998) and Monsters, Inc. (2001) will be released back-to-back on Blu-ray presumably in Spring of this year.
The long circulating rumor has now been confirmed by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment in an announcement of their future releases from February to October of this new year. Monsters and ABL will both include a digital copy for viewing on an iPod and will likely feature some sort of new content. An announcement featuring specific details on the two afformentioned releases are expected late this Winter. What a great marketing strategy, think about it: Disney•Pixar’s Up, from the director of Monsters, Inc. (now on Blu-ray)!
Unfortunately, there was no announcement of the long awaited Finding Nemo Blu-ray which has had changing release dates for the past year or two.
Speaking of Blu-rays, IGN has named WALL•E the best BD of the year! Read what they had to say here.

As much as I’m excited about those movies I’m saddened to hear that nothing was said about Finding Nemo 🙁
