Default Re: Continental European version of Big Trouble in Little China?

Can anyone who bought Big Trouble in Little China in/from France, Germany, Italy or The Netherlands tell me if their disc has a UK BBFC ratings symbol on it?

Thanks!

They're the film rating symbols used here in the UK.

They look like THIS.

Can you tell me what ratings symbols are on the disc? Any chance you could post a picture of your disc?

There are no rating symbols on the Dutch one at all Just the movie title in English and French.

I may end up doing that but I'd rather buy it locally given a choice.

I just don't get why it hasn't even been announced for release in the UK when it's been released in so many other countries?

Inexplicably, Fox seems to be doing this a lot. There are loads of titles released by Fox in multiple territories with no sign of a release in the UK!

It doesn't make any sense. I can understand it when a title is only released in the US. But for so many titles to get a release in the US, Australia, Japan and several European countries but not the UK makes no sense whatsoever. All these titles I'm talking about are titles that Fox also owns the UK distribution rights to by the way.
