I think adding a new field could work and be beneficial, if there was a clear & simple definition.

At the very least the current Rules for Studios/Media Companies needs some work.

I'll agree when I see someone propose such a clear and simple definition. (And not one that is clear only to Skip)

After the clarifying points that were made in the Orion thread, I have no problem with how it works now. The only method that would be simpler and easier and not require additional research would be to list all studios as they appear in credits order.

Trying to get to the bottom of theatrical distibution is outside the scope of profiling home video releases imho. Localisation of movie distributors is another problem. One studio might release another studio's  films abroad and vice versa.

I would like to see 2 sets of unlimited "studios": one listing all of the company names from the credits (beginning or end) and one listing all of the company names from the packaging (eg. media companies).

And if I'm elected, I promise morebingo for everyone!

Is it that I'm expressing myself not precise enough, or is it that you don't want to understand me?


I actually wasn't exactly clear on what you were asking, so it's not that I didn't want to understand you.

Given the example, however, I think I finally grok.  And now I think I understand the question.  Looking at it from that standpoint, perhaps it would be difficult to distinguish where one studio would go over another. 

Perhaps KinoNiki has the right answer, that the simplest, easiest answer would be to list the studios as they appear in credits order.
