Yes, good call.. it is indeed Warner.

I found a copy of Chain Reaction(1996) a Fox title at a second hand store for 6$. It's selling on Amazon for $40

After that I was going through my wishlist on Amazon and checking which titles are from 20th Century Fox.

Those are the titles of interest for now:
Titanic
Alita: Battle Angel (not sure if I want to buy it)
I Am Legend
I, Robot
Gone Girl
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Maze Runner (1)
The Fault in Our Stars

They are all available for normal prices, although "I Am Legend" and "I, Robot" are a bit higher than normal (~10€ here) and occassionally out of stock since some time.

Which ones would would you say to prioritize buying and which ones are not likely to be unavailable soon (enough supply, re-relase likely without waiting for years)?

Fault in Our Stars and Walter Mitty have been Dollar Tree titles last year or year before. If you have a used media store in your area they may still have some copies. Walter Mitty reappeared in numerous waves.

The poster is from Germany, so retail availability is probably different there.

Yes I don't think there are any dollar trees in germany. Maybe there are Deutschmark Baums?

@James Luckard Thanks, that's helpful and good to hear.

@houseca While I'm not really interested in 3D, that could still be a fallback in case the regular versions are harder to come by.

That one got me chuckling.
Actually buying used is not very appealing to me, I usually want to buy new. First off, with shipping included it's often not much cheaper than buying new for a good deal on Amazon (5-7€ per normal disc) and then there's the lottery of getting it in a condition you're satisfied with. At least when buying online, not sure where we have some shop for used media..

Get the 4K of I am Legend right now. I can see that one drying up and going for big $$

That's good to know, was already thinking of getting the UHD of that title instead, one of the reasons I didn't buy it yet.

@BluTracer Correct.^^ Forgot about that, just wrote down the tabs I opened during the research, and because I planned to buy "I Am Legend" and "I, Robot" at the same time, that was under them.

Is Married to the Mob from Kino Lorber out of print or out of stock? I see only the DVD available.

Yes, it's OOP. If the BD was only Out of Stock, there would still be a button for it, with the product page saying that it was temporarily out of stock.

It's been in Kino's "While Supplies Last" sale I think since that sale began. That sale is for titles that Kino has no plans to renew their licenses for.

It was added as part of the last wave in August.

Extremely underrated movie.... it's a Jonathan Demme gem. I'm so glad I got it dirt cheap during the sale before it went oop. Everyone should visit that list, as well as Shout's, and ask yourself "if this went OOS and disappeared, would I care?" If so, buy it now.

The Pink Panther Film Collection is officially sold out and OOP from Shout Factory, it's listed as such on their site:

Really wish I had gotten into buying blu-rays early enough to snag I Know What You Did Last Summer. It’s probably wishful thinking, but a new 4K release of that movie would be awesome, strictly for the availability.

It's really odd SF hasn't rereleased this.

For the sake of completeness: (not yet known if region-free though)

Fault In Our Stars was huge. Disney has to re-release at some point.

Finally watched Lucas on Starz! and looooved. I want the blu but not for $110.

I wish we could get a re-release.
