Films where Fox's release is the pick. How picks are made

Formed in 1935 by the merger of Fox Film Corporation and Twentieth Century Pictures, the Hollywood studio was bought by Disney in 2019 and dropped the Fox name in 2020. Its discs now come out through Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, with Sony handling US and Canadian physical distribution since 2024. Much of the classic Fox catalogue reaches Blu-ray through licensees rather than in-house.

Also known as: 20th Century Studios

Original 4-Track Mix: MGM 1990 LaserDisc

General release mono mix: CBS Fox VHS Hi-Fi but time compressed
5.1 remix of 4-track mix: MGM Blu-ray (a lossless version of the remix from the Ultimate Edition DVD)

Audio Notes:

The 5.1 track on the earlier THX LD/DVD and SE DVDs is not the same as the later remix, and appears to be more faithful the original mix (likely a simple upmix). The UE DVD remix has a lot more surround activity.

Best English-Friendly & Video:

MGM Blu-ray
