The UK doesn't make blockbusters without support from the US, nobody in the UK has that kind of money (except Ingenious Media, but they just secretly co-finance Fox films). The last big British blockbuster was Gravity, and even that provoked massive debates as to whether it was British or not. (It met British government criteria for tax funding, so was deemed British by the BFI and the BAFTAs.)

Yes, but I didn't mean a few mildly successful films or cult movies.

If you wrote that Monty Python or Benny Hill in England or perhaps Amelie in France or any of the great Japanese or Korean horror movies not being available in their countries would be similar.

I received the lamest response from Disney Movies regarding Frozen. They told me to get it from VUDU. I guess they didn't read the part of my e-mail stating that I bought it from the UK.

Or they chose to ignore it, because in their opinion you shouldn't have imported it and you are screwing with the Matrix. (Although Disney UK did tell us to import Marvel's The Avengers (or Marvel Avengers Assemble as it was called over here, because apparently we're intelligent enough to remember the other Avengers, and nobody else is) after they completely buggered up that release, with no intention of fixing it.)
