We don't profile webpages so what's the point talking about them. Indeed. And as I pointed out earlier the website contradicts itself... Quoting GreyHulk: Quote:
It even states that Prometheus is "©2011 Twentieth Century Fox" on the same page. |

| | Posted: | | | | Can we rule out with 100% certainty that there are a film with 20th Century Fox in the credits? If not, the filter should not be added. | | |

| | Posted: | | | | It usually states at the start of a film 'Twentieth Century Fox presents'. I don't believe I've ever seen a '20th Century Fox presents' version. Can anyone prove otherwise? |

--------------- I too think soo. The rules also state: "Do not abbreviate Studio or Media Company names." Ain't "20th" an abbreviation of "Twentieth" and as such alone not allowed by the rules?   | | | | Last edited: by MakoDeth |

| | Posted: | | | | I have always used "Twentieth Century Fox" myself.
Checking the EDGAR system on www.sec.gov gives hit on "Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp" (CIK 0000356364) and "Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment" (CIK 0000944734). No hit on "20th Century Fox". |

| | Posted: | | | | The reason 20th Century Fox is used in the home page title is probably because that's what people search for first. That, or just Fox. Because we have their logo imprinted in our minds... I blame it on Star Wars. | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 | | | | Last edited: by Nexus the Sixth |

| | Posted: | | | | In the online there are a lot of TV series with 20th Century Fox Television in the studio field (like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and The X-Files). That doesn't seem right to me. Locally I have them all listed as Twentieth Century Fox Television. | | | | Cor |

| | Posted: | | | | I would have sworn that the Contribution Rules used to state that in the case of 20th Century-Fox, "20th" should always be spelled out as "Twentieth" instead. It wasn't too long ago either. Was I imagining it? I can't find that instruction now.
The credit that indicates the copyright studio is always "Twentieth", not "20th", so that's what I always use for the Studio name. |
