Fox Region Coding - Customer Support?

[Croweyes1121]

Is there a number or email we can contact to ask someone about specific region coding on upcoming titles? I'd love to import "Sunshine" from the UK, for example, but don't want to waste my time if it's not going to work on a US PS3. Anybody know who I could ask about this?

There is a Fox Insider on HighDefDigest.com but I don't know how often he checks his/her messages or if he/she got any answer. I have ordered a copy and will report region coding as soon as I get it.

No, no one on that level will know

Sunshine will be out here soon enough, at the very least you can just wait till someone gets it and figures it out

The "What Region Code Is It?" Thread.

Merlin's Rough Guidelines to Studio Region Coding post (from same thread)

Lies, Inc's Blu-Ray Region Code info

Not that any of that answers your immediate question...

But good to bookmark for future reference.

Do you have a picture of the back cover? Would like to see it. If Fox region coded the disc to region B it would be unusual. They haven't region coded much in region B since February. However, this has no release date in USA yet so it could still be region coded and Fox have no clear plan about region coding in Europe or Australia yet.

Fox have also released region free discs labeled region B.

I only got the scandinavian cover aswell if you want to see that

I don't own any Scandinavian releases yet even if I'm from Sweden but region free is dominating the few Scandinavian releases on http://bluray.liesinc.net/

I have just orderd my two first Scandinavian Blu-rays from www.dvd.se and will keep you all posted about them later:

Children of Men
Revolver

Thanks for the picture! To bad I don't see my avatar on the cover But i can still be region free even if the possibility is much lower with the Region B symbol.

What I find really funny is that the rearranged the crew depending on the region they were selling to. Kaneda is in front on the Asia cover
