Are we blindly supporting the executive elite...? - Blu-ray Forum

I don't own a single Fox Blu-ray yet. I've been watching them closely ever since the Robocop release. To me, the only thing they have out there that I deem worth the pennies is I, Robot. I'll get that one someday when it's around $20 and I have the funds.

Seriously, I'm pretty disappointed with them up to this point. $35 ($27 Amazon) price tags on mediocre transfers w/out extras isn't exactly winning me over.

I'm sure that before the Christmas holiday season, prices will drop somehwat and they will have more and more sales.

+1 to the above.

The lesson here is: definitely don't buy any release that either A) Fails to live up to expectations or B) is too expensive to justify. This includes most, if not all Fox titles for me. I will never spend $35 on a Blu-ray unless it's Lord of the Rings.
