While updating info on LDDb, i found these CED's on ebay. CBS/FOX Video releases of Alien and Porky's.

Both films are already in the database released by 20th Century Fox, but it appears they were re-issued by CBS/FOX Video as well, Alien in 1982, Porky's has yet to be determined but i suspect it was released in 1983.

Im amazed no-one has discovered these yet..

They have been submitted to JULIEN.

That is interesting. I have a copy of the CBS/Fox Alien in my collection and thought it was common (per CEDmagic.com). I will have to look up the 20'th Century version to see if the cover art is the same.

The cover art is almost the same for both Alien and Porky's. The main difference is a large CBS/FOX logo at the top instead of the top 20th Century Fox banner. If you have the CBS/FOX version then perhaps you can submit a picture for Julien.

Can you confirm the audio for Alien CBS/FOX CED? I guess it's Stereo. Also can you confirm the UPC?

The sound is stereo as noted by the label and the caddie's blue color.

The UPC is 2454-31090-9.

I will post a picture of the front and back when I get a chance and I get good lighting.

I bought my copy from Columbia House's CED of the Month Club so it has had maybe 2 or 3 playings tops.

The original CED of Porky's started out straight with the movie, but later pressings have the grey CBS/Fox Video intro at the beginning. I have 2 copies with the later "CBS/Fox" cover, one has the intro and the other doesn't.

Other CED titles on that label (like The Entity) have varying intros as well- one copy has the white and blue opening and another has the later grey one.
