I just pulled the trigger on Sunshine for $27.95 at Amazon. This is my first Fox Blu-ray purchase. It's very hard to pull the trigger on the pricey Fox titles. However, I really enjoyed this movie at the theater. This was one of those movies, midway through, I thought to myself "I can't wait to get this on Blu-ray." I told myself the same thing during my theatrical viewing of Transformers. :rolleyes:

There's really no other Fox titles that interest me, that are currently out, except the Die Hard movies. I'm kicking myself for missing that Fox BOGO that had three of the Die Hard movies in that deal. Hopefully they'll run that again.

I'd like to get Mr. and Mrs. Smith, but paying that price and not getting the Director's cut is holding me back.

I'm looking forward to what Fox Blu-ray releases show up in 2008. They have a great library. I want X-Men and X-Men II, among many others. :)

Congrats! The Marine popped my Fox cherry (yeah, I realize how bad of a movie it is, but it has been watched about 3 times since buying it in August!). I was glad to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith as part of the Best Buy BOGO a few weeks ago, bringing the price down to about $17 with another title. Great disc. Deserves a rental at the very least!

My first Fox purchase was Rescue Dawn. Would have bought The Devil Wears Prada if I didn't own it on DVD already. Also own Fantastic 4 for free, currently looking for creative reasons to get rid of it from my collection. LOL

From all the Fox movies that have been released, none of them really interested me except from the ones that I have mentioned. To the future titles, contemplating on Sunshine.

what i love about the marine as it knows its a bad film is mindless fun has some cool action some funny parts the whole rock candy plot line is messed up but silly etc.

i can't wait to get it on bluray when it comes out in Oz.

My first Fox purchase was the Die Hard Collection. Next I'll be getting Man on Fire and probably Sunshine as well.

X-men 3 was my first Fox titles, which I bought shortly after it's release, and I do plan to get Sunshine as well - but I totally agree.

Outside of the last Amazon B1G1 sale, I pretty much avoid Fox titles altogether. I can't fathom why the studio releases BD titles with less content than the counterpart SD-DVD, yet charges more for BD than any other studio.

They may as well stamp "RIP OFF" in big red text on the cover of each release.

I only buy Fox titles when they a B1G1.

..and they they are about equal in price to most other releases.

Fox needs to wake up.

I agree that Fox has some great titles, however they are overpriced compared to other companies titles! Fox needs to bring their prices down!
I purchased Mr & Mrs Smith, as I really enjoyed that movie!
