You know, if it was a defective disc due to a problem pressing them, I could see it, but that's not the case. This is strictly a software issue. You don't put out software that won't work on machines known to already be out in the field.
Is the BDA so disorganized, that as a group they are functionally retarded?
I am so tired of Blu-fan boys defending this incompetence.
This is clearly a case where the discs were rushed to market before they were ready. It wouldn't have been hard to do some QC on the movies with so few players out there. There is no excuse.

Follow Ups:
It's more likely the fault of the players not being enabled to properly play/process what's on the disc (which implement known Blu-ray format features, security, capabilities, etc) because the hardware manufacturers didn't "turn on" these capabilities early enough. If they weren't known Blu-ray format features, security, capabilities, etc, then neither LG nor Samsung would be providing updates for something that the format isn't supposed to support.

But is it the job of FOX to play nursemaid to Samsung and LG? The fact that LG said they'd have a firmware udate in a few days should tell you something (ie, all manufacturers need to get off of their collective asses and keep their players up-to-date).
FOX has been more willing to give its customers advanced features and use the latest technology than other studios. They're ahead of the curve and because of that some hardware manufacturers are going to have problems.
