Star Wars

I think that next year. 20th Century Fox will no more to have Episodes I-VI. Disney will have one instead. TopCashBack2 (talk) 04 December 2012, —Preceding undated comment added 13:10, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

20 th century fox use to have the rights to Star Wars but Disney owns the name. It a former part. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.236.79.4 (talk) 17:43, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

According to this article, Fox has distribution rights for A New Hope in perpetuity, and the other five films until 2020. Trivialist (talk) 22:00, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

It talked about liking that logo in that franchise in audio. 172.58.3.199 (talk) 02:34, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

Time for a new recording of the 20th Century Fox Fanfare?

• Sighs* Am I the only one thinking that it's time to have Fox update its infamous fanfare? I mean it hasn't been updated since 1997 and in my opinion Fox may not be able to update it anymore. --Rod14 (talk) 21:34, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

Anybody? --Rod14 (talk) 13:07, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Colloquial language?

Over the next 20-odd years, the network and owned-stations group expanded to become extremely profitable for News Corp.

Should the phrase "20-odd" be used, as it seems to go against the formal and business-like manner suggested by WP:COLLOQUIAL?

Orphaned references in 20th Century Fox

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 20th Century Fox's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "DisneyFY13":

• From Star Wars (film): "The Walt Disney Company FY 2013 SEC Form 10-K Filing" (PDF). The Walt Disney Company. November 20, 2013. p. 13. Retrieved April 17, 2015. Prior to the Company's acquisition, Lucasfilm produced six Star Wars films (Episodes 1 through 6). Lucasfilm retained the rights to consumer products related to all of the films and the rights related to television and electronic distribution formats for all of the films, with the exception of the rights for Episode 4, which are owned by a third-party studio. All of the films are distributed by a third-party studio in the theatrical and home video markets. The theatrical and home video distribution rights for these films revert to Lucasfilm in May 2020 with the exception of Episode 4, for which these distribution rights are retained in perpetuity by the third-party studio.
• From The Empire Strikes Back: "The Walt Disney Company FY 2013 SEC Form 10-K Filing" (PDF). The Walt Disney Company. November 20, 2013. p. 13. Retrieved April 17, 2015.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:31, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

Infobox: Parent Company

In the infobox it says the parent company is Fox Entertainment Group, while in the infobox of the article of Fox Entertainment Group it is said that 20th Century Fox is the parent of Fox Entertainment Group. Please correct one of the infoboxes please. Thank you!155.56.68.218 (talk) 15:17, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

They are correct. 20th is owned by FEG, which is owned by 21st. Please look at Parent and Owner within this article and FEG article. - FEG is a division of 21st. Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 03:44, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
