20th Century Fox Cinema Classics Collection

[edit] Cinema Classics vs. Studio Classics
The Cinema Classics Collection is a successor to the earlier Fox series Studio Classics. The Cinema Classic line has maintained the high reputation of quality and bonus features enjoyed by its predecessor, but there are differences between the two:
-Collection Makeup and Numbering - While all Studio Classic titles consist of a single disc, many Cinema Classic titles are 2-disc sets or boxed DVD sets. And while all Studio Classics come with a spine number, Cinema Classics do not.
-Artwork and Slipcovers - Single-disc Cinema Classic DVDs come packaged not only with a standard DVD keepcase, but are also enclosed inside a decorative cardstock slipcover. In addition, the artwork on the slipcover and inside the case is more colorful and more closely re-creates movie poster artwork from the time of each film's release; by contrast, the artwork for Studio Classic DVDs is simply a re-coloring of the old VHS release.
-Pricing - The SRPs of most single-disc Cinema Classic titles are a few dollars higher than single-disc Studio Classic ones.
