Actually a couple of Fox titles you've mentioned have 4k DCPs, at least according to Hollywood Classics:
http://hollywoodclassics.com/pdf/Pri...DCP%20list.pdf

I've narrowed down the list of Fox titles to the ones currently not on our list, though a good number of them haven't been released anywhere yet:
[Show spoiler]BATMAN
BOSTON STRANGLER, THE
BOWERY, THE
BOY ON A DOLPHIN
CALL OF THE WILD (Fox Studio Classics)
CRAZY WORLD OF JULIUS VROODER, THE
CURLY TOP
DIE HARD
DIE HARD 2
FLAMING STAR (TT)
FORTY GUNS (MoC)
GUNFIGHTER, THE
HEAVEN CAN WAIT
HIGH ANXIETY
HISTORY OF THE WORLD: PART 1
HOW TO STEAL A MILLION
JEWEL OF THE NILE
JULIA (TT)
LIEUTENANT WORE SKIRTS, THE
MRS. DOUBTFIRE
OX-BOW INCIDENT, THE (upcoming from Kino)
PAGEMASTER
PEYTON PLACE (upcoming from TT)
PRETTY POISON
PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE (TT)
REVENGE OF THE NERDS II: NERDS IN PARADISE
RIO CONCHOS
ROMANCING THE STONE
SANDLOT, THE
SAY ANYTHING
SON OF ROBIN HOOD, THE
ST. VALENTINE’S DAY MASSACRE (TT)
STORMY WEATHER (TT)
TWO FOR THE ROAD (MoC)
UNFAITHFULLY YOURS
VANISHING POINT
VOLCANO
X-MEN
X-MEN 2


If the list is accurate, it seems evident that for some titles the current BDs may not have been derived from the same source as the DCPs. (The 2 DIE HARDs definitely aren't, strongly doubt MRS. DOUBTFIRE and VOLCANO are and MoC don't seem to specify any tech info for their releases of FORTY GUNS and TWO FOR THE ROAD...)

zakzak, you should check the OP before posting, as some of the titles that you have suggested ARE available from a 4K transfer on Blu.

Oh, I really hope Romancing the Stone comes soon (including the original audio too)!
It was the first film I ever saw at the cinema at the age of 4-5, so this is that started it all!

Is the 2011 Studiocanal "Rambo: The Ultimate Edition" 4k scanned and finished in 2k?
It's much better than the old BD release.

TT's Flaming Star uses a 4k scan?
(it seems there is one according to this:
http://hollywoodclassics.com/pdf/Pri...DCP%20list.pdf)

if yes, then it should be added.
i don't understand though why this film needed it and other more important and famous ones, didn't.

Confirmed from press releases:
