Fox steps back in the ring.

[BadAss]

After months of silence, Fox Home Entertainment is planning to issue an announcement later today renewing its support for the Blu-ray format, and outlining the studio's upcoming release plans.

About time, hopefully they will announce some dates for all those cancelled titles and some new ones

Remember last year when Fox rushed out X-Men 3 at the last minute?

This is excellent news...Fox is a 'must have' studio for me (as much as Universal, Paramount, Dreamworks, New Line and Warner are). Fox had some good releases lined up before they abandoned the high def market - lets hope we see some major high profile titles and not just a rehash of DVHS titles though!

It seems as though Paramount have shaken the market back into life

I see their move stalling things rather than shaking things up....... Paramount that is....

Fox may well have been preparing titles for months, so they could just drop a hatfull on the market.

Shocked at paramount, just muddies the already murky waters, and IMHO dooms the HD formats to dvd-a/sacd fate

Looks like we're all benefiting from the Paramount announcement today.
