Chances are pretty good when this deal is finalized about a quarter of our yearly release slate will disappear forever. We are trying to get as much done as we can. Fingers crossed. In the meantime, so many jobs will be lost it breaks my heart...but X Men and Fantastic Four will finally be at Disney...sigh.

This is absolutely ridiculous! No disrespect to Intrada, I've purchased practically every Disney own title they've released, but Disney needs to open it's vaults to the other labels so we can get this stuff out.

Yes, and the Universal Film Heritage Collection should"open its vaults to the other labels so we can get this stuff out."

The 20CF music vaults have been steadily mined over the years and what we've been getting are more re-issues of previously released scores from other labels under the guise of a few more minutes of music or improved sound. What I would like to see is premiere material that has never been available before in any format and that is where Universal has it over 20CF.
We have seen deeper Disney catalog titles since the Intrada deal. Perhaps if a similar deal could be arranged for Fox properties after the sale, a label like LLL could work with what would presumably be the same corporate support.
Intrada have already mentioned they have access to more titles than they can handle
I assume that the bottleneck is with Disney and not with Intrada. Otherwise, Intrada could simply expand operations to handle the workload. "Put more men on the job!"
The other limiting factor would be the customer base. We only have so much disposable income.

As a small, mom-and-pop operation with consistent QC standards, I don't think they'd be in favor of that. They're likely working as quickly as they can.
If that comes to fruition, then presumably LLL will miss out on some Fox titles they were working on. MV has already confirmed The Diary Of Anne Frank is not coming this year. So we won't get that one. Also X-Men and The Towering Inferno. And wasn't there some talk from MV of the music from the Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea TV series coming out?
Also, X-Files Vol 4 must be in the Black Friday batch?
^ LLL confirmed that there would be no X-Files releases this year. Hopefully they get to release the projects they have started working on? Same goes for Angel :/

If you actually read the article you would realise that the deal will not close on Jan 1st.It just means that they will be ready to close the deal.The disney takeover wont be finalised until the middle of next year.
Its such a shame that this deal is going to happen.Now it just means that the X Men are going to be shoved into an already overcrowded MCU and that Deadpool will be made kiddie friendly.
HBO given up the ghost over 40 years broadcasting boxing - no more after 2018 - hopefully Fox sports stay around their old an established, weird doe HBO weren't losing money they had Saul Alvarez under their wing, network - he brings in a mountain of cash.
