Although this headline may not have been the message from the other side you might have expected, a rule set down by the Walt Disney Company back in 1999 means that the only Blu-Ray Plant in the Southern Hemisphere.
The brand new Sony Blu-Ray replicating plant in Huntingwood, Australia, is the only plant of its type down under. It can make up to 12 million discs a year and also makes games for the Playstaion3. However in a recent statement from their spokesperson, they stated "Sony DADC is open to other contracts but would not take on any adult titles or content,". And although they didn’t give an exact reason for not producing any adult titles in their massive Australian factory, it’s believed to be related to a rule set down by Disney 10 years ago.
In 1999, a home video release of the classic Disney movie The Rescuers, the was a brief appearance of a topless woman, which caused Disney to withdraw and recall all copies of the movie. The source of the stray frames has never been identified, however, one of the conspiracy theories is that the images were placed there by the original animators back in 1977. Regardless of who included the semi naked image in the film, the Walt Disney Company immediately made a rule that their movies could never again be replicated in plants that also produce porn titles.
