planning to watch the Little Mermaid 3D on September 14th?! u can scratch that off as Disney has dropped & cancelled the re-release of the Little Mermaid 3D in theaters due to other Disney 3D poor box office performances excluding the Lion Kings.. on the other note; Pirate of the Caribbean 5 is set release on July 10, 2015.. http://tinyurl.com/buwh799
Good that they are holding back on making stuff 3D. Hopefully 3d has run its course and continue on it's down fall. - VfxGenie

I hope you are right! - DisneyVacationLover 275.1 #795 1:06PM
They're really missing that there is a huge difference here... Nemo and Monsters were both quite recent movies. Both have been available in merch, easily purchased on DVD, referenced in pop culture, etc. The Little Mermaid, however, is a bit more obscure. I really feel as though there would have been a much larger turn out for it. I'm a little bummed, it would have been fun to see it in 3D. - cynDOLEwhip

Totes agree! - yvetteissogoofy 162.6 #2156 12:55PM
By the way, this is the first movie I remember going to see in theaters. I wish they'd at least rerelease it in theaters, 3D or not... - cynDOLEwhip 745.3 #138 12:59PM
Awe! What sad news. :( - Duchess_SMK

Thanks guys! Can't wait! - IDVandalSkipperCM 1326.3 #61 11:23AM
This makes me sad. I wonder if they had done more advertising with Monsters Inc or Finding Nemo if they would have gotten better numbers. With Monsters Inc I didn't see that many promos on TV except for the two weeks leading up to their re-release. After they opened in box office the commercials were pretty much non existent. - KermitFan13

Disney in general hasnt advertised much on tv and many people have cable/satellite.Disney channels has virtually no commercials and the only commercial I see on tv is for the wdw vacations.Any other commercials for movies or releases are like 10 seconds and ad prints you get on email or in the parks if any.Makes me wonder if they cut back on some ad media and if it would have helped their sales of glow with the show ears as they have tried so many ways to give them out free,buy one get one and small tv screens with some videos on it.As far as 3d movies there are more expensive and with the cost of everything ,it can be a bit to pay for a family to watch it in theaters when you can rent buy at home the regular version but 3d adds to the experience you cant get at home - pikarich 677.6 #158 9:50AM
@pikarich, u know there are 3D TVs now right? - Stitch_Legacy 3645.4 #9 9:54AM
@stitch pss can I borrow $3,000 to get one. lol I forgot about that they are still expensive and the the younhave to have that an a 3d bluray right to be able to see it correctly - pikarich 677.6 #158 10:19AM
get your own $3,000!! lol - Stitch_Legacy 3645.4 #9 11:03AM
Booo - TinkerSchelle

I think a lot of people have the DVD's and an awesome big TV and have seen the movie a million times so the 3D version is not that big of a deal? Or just not worth the $$, maybe
in a better economy the 3D's would of done better? - PrincessDuckie

Oh, that's a shame. And now I feel guilty for missing both Nemo and Monsters Inc in 3D! - meridafan

Sorry to those that were looking forward to it, my daughter can't see 3D so it doesn't really affect us. - Linzee

I just hope this doesn't push back the re-release of The Little Mermaid on Blu-Ray/DVD. When I was working at the Disney Store, EVERYDAY someone would ask about the movie. Sadly, the only place you can get it is Amazon for $60. :( - Nyghtngale

I could care less about 3d, but I'm so bummed because I really wanted to take mads to the theatres to see it. Is little mermaid out on blueray? - madsdad

oh ok, well that will work. That movie is way special to mads so looking forward to seeing it on blueray. - madsdad 1244.5 #65 10:56AM
I will be racing out to the store to get that movie the second it comes out! Little Skipper will be raised watching Little Mermaid! It was my favorite as a kid. - IDVandalSkipperCM 1326.3 #61 10:58AM
3D movies are not friendly for people with glasses. Ever try wearing glasses over glasses? Uncomfortable. 😣 - Waites4DodgerEars

I will super agree with this one! - otilegna 1072.0 #81 12:07PM
All I remember as a kid is them re-releasing the Disney classics in theaters. This was mostly my first experience with them and I loved it. It makes me sad that kids these days are not able to see them in theaters. I was willing to except the 3d version as the new thing, but now I am just sad for this generation. - PrincessDaisy

That is sad! Well, i hope they still re-release it on a restored version.. - otilegna
