Disney's FastPlay is a special feature used on Disney DVDs, introduced in the late summer of 2004.

Infamously, FastPlay will also play all of the trailers and previews featured on the DVD, meaning it can take up to 8 or 10 minutes for your movie to actually start. However, a few releases like the 2018 DVD of ''Incredibles 2'' instead have the previews after the film, meaning that the movie begins right away.

'''Editor's Note:''' While this logo is decently animated, the enhancement remains rather infamous for how it claims to play the movie "fast" and "automatically", when it really just plays the movie after a ton of trailers, as well as the logo's speedy nature making it difficult to immediately hit the main menu option.
