Dredd was a comic strip WAAAAAAAY before both movie adaptations.
Sure i agree, but certainly the movie as much as the comic have Sci-Fi elements to them right?

Well, yeah... all of the listed movies do. I'm not sure where this is going?
Am I the only one who is excited for this?
I think after the success they had with Marvel, Disney knows pleasing the core audience will print more cash than what Lucas has been doing lately. Also, it really can't get worse at this rate.
Also, I'm more confident than ever my young self will finally see the original unedited trilogy.
Just one thought on my mind:
Pre-Special Edition.
Pretty much ANY sci-fi action flick since Serenity has been better than Serenity. Well okay, that's not true. I guess it's better than Skyline and Battle: LA.
But if you want to get into real examples, off the top of my head:
Children of Men
V for Vendetta
Sunshine
Star Trek (09)
District 9
Avatar
Looper
Dredd
And that's not including comic book movies like Iron Man etc
I think to get the most out of Serenity you have to watch the tv show. I didn't watch the tv show and thought the movie was great but not the most awesome thing ever.
Home alone reboot confirmed.Time for Disney to buy Fox
Box Sets Just Got Complicated: Rights For 'Star Wars: A New Hope' Still Held By Fox
So Fox has home video rights to A New Hope until 2020? Ouch. First X-Men and Fantastic Four, now Star Wars. Fox is always cockblocking Disney.
George Lucas is using Fox to hold the OT hostage to make sure Disney plays ball.
He will NEVER allow the original versions to be released

Actually, ANH is the only SW film which was financed by Fox, since Lucas was an unknown at the time, unlike the other films, which were independently financed by Lucasfilm. This is why Fox controls the home video rights for Episode IV. This is out of Lucas' control.
If that were true then how come Fox never released the original version of ANH?
I think Disney would still have to pay ILM for their services; for tax reasons. SPE does the same thing for Sony Imageworks.

Just as Lucas did when he used ILM. He just got great pricing on their services.
Hopefully they get great discounts and won't have another Iron Man 3 situation.oh right, thanks.
so will owning them provides other benefits? like not having to pay too much or having to put out a bidding process like they did with iron man 3.
I would have thought owning one of the best fx companies would be a massive boon for them in terms of long term costs and such, but then I've never been good at business and how it works.
Ah Internet, so predictable you are...

This means that the SW movies are going into the vault too?

I'm going to pretend that Sculli was banned for badmouthing Serenity.Pretty much ANY sci-fi action flick since Serenity has been better than Serenity. Well okay, that's not true. I guess it's better than Skyline and Battle: LA.

The rights to the first film in the "Star Wars" franchise, retroactively titled "A New Hope," are wholly owned by 20th Century Fox, an individual with knowledge of the deal told TheWrap. And Fox's claim on Luke, Leia and Han Solo doesn't stop there. While Lucasfilm controls the other films in the series, Fox maintains theatrical and home-video distribution rights to those films through May, 2020, historically charging a fee of between 6 percent to 8 percent of receipts.
Paramount, which distributed all four films in the adventure franchise, has an option to distribute any future sequels, an individual with knowledge of the pact told TheWrap. It only earns a distribution fee for its pains, but that will eat into any profits for Disney.
Should another Indy film make it out of the gate, that fee will be on the order of what the studio charged to handle the 2008 rollout of "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull": Roughly 12.5 percent of theatrical, home entertainment and television revenue.
