I bought several of these "promo" blu-rays and didn't have any issues whatsoever.

Are any of them 20th Century Fox Bd's ?

Blu Jedi Master · 12-25-2013, 08:31 PM

The ones that would not play are

Ice Age Continental Drift
Kung Fu Panda 2
Madagascar 3

Yes to 20th Century Fox. Why?

The Walmart (Promo) Blus & DVDs are the same as any store has it seems some think since Walmart sells them they are inferior or bootleg or something!

The only thing "Promo" about them is the stickers to denote they are part of the Black Friday sales!

You might need to update your Blu-ray player's firmware!

I have a PS3 and have never had a problem playing any Blu-ray.
