Lets give Fox a break for a change. Will we ever see an MGM release this year?

Hmmm, I know WB is distributing the That's Entertainment set but it featured clips from MGM films. And that was postponed without reason, too. I wonder if it is in any way connected?

Great, two more BD exclusive titles I was planning to pick up. I'm really regretting buying that PS3 for $659 back in April. I have about 20 BD titles so far and am really stretching to buy any more. I even bought Pearl Habour and Stargate.

BD+ got cracked and beta of AnyDVD HD lets you rip those movies. I doubt that its any coincidence that the BD+ cracking and MGM cancellation happened in the same week.

No, because all pre 1986 MGM movies, is owned by Warner.

Four, I mean.

Why am I not surprised... I'm completely format neutral, but I think Fox is by far the worst company releasing on HDM out there. I haven't bought a single Fox BD, and my girlfriend's only bought one (Night at the Museum).

Even the Weinsteins, who haven't released a movie in 6 or 7 months now are better than Fox, because they don't announce movies only to pull them a week or two before they're supposed to come out.

Seriously, it's disgusting. Die Hard 1 is the only Fox movie I'll be buying from them before they get their act together, and that's only because I watch it every Christmas Eve.
