Fox hunting SHOULD be legal! - Blu-ray Forum

Fox frustrate and confuse the hell out of me.

They are so goddamned schizophrenic with their Blu-ray releases!

X-Files: I Want To Believe has BD-Live in the UK but not in the rest of Europe. No other BD-Live titles have been released in the UK before or since "I want to Believe" AFAIK, but other Fox releases in the US do have BD-Live features (that are missing here and on the continent). The X-Men Trilogy in Europe got BonusView and PIP features but the US didn't (they got BD-Live functionality on their Trilogy though when Europe didn't). A whole raft of titles have been released by Fox in the rest of Europe (and of course the US) but not in the UK. Lots of Fox catalog titles released in Europe are missing features that are on the equivalent US release. And on, and on, and on...

I really don't understand you Fox. I'd just like a lttle consistency please!

Rant OVER!

So, are Fox the most inconsistent and annoying studio/distributor when it comes to BD?

Im pretty surr it has to do with legal complications. I think it would cost more to release blu rays with these differences.

I think that's on a different label outside of North America? BV I believe?

I doubt it's anything legal. More likely incompetence and greed on Fox's part.

They do seem to be putting out far better RB versions currently so things might be looking up!
