And streams for free on the show's site: https://southpark.cc.com/

(I'm glad Matt and Trey didn't totally relinquish control with the HBO Max deal, especially since I used to watch it on Hulu before it was recently yanked.)

Just an FYI the fantastic show SouthLAnd is $30 for the complete series. It’s in HD on Vudu but only available on DVD otherwise.

Just want to say that Upgrade is on sale right now. It's a fun, overlooked action flick that I've been waiting to be discounted for a while now. I wish it was cheaper than $7 (obviously), but that's still in my buy range.

It's $4.99 on iTunes and a MA title.

Is it just me, or are Vudu's sale prices not as good as they used to be? There are still great deals - the comedy tv season one now, and the blockbuster one a while ago - but it seems like I'm seeing a lot more movies with sale prices of 6.99 and 7.99 (or more) that 'feel' like they might have been 4.99 or 5.99 a few months ago. Maybe I've already bought all my 'must haves' so I'm into my personal second or third tier. Also, I wish they would do what Steam does for their bundles - if you already own some of the content in the bundle, they lower the bundle price to get the remainder. There are some bundles I would like to get but I already have one or two things in it.

Less movies being made and released on digital. Might as well not drop prices as much to capitalize on the trend.

Fandango bought out VUDU from Walmart during the summer, and has been running a much tighter ship on pricing and deals in general. I'm thinking that VUDU before the sale was mostly concerned about boosting overall revenue numbers and make it more attractive for buyers. Revenue numbers are usually more important in corporate sales of this size.

I've found that iTunes and Fanflix have had the best deals lately especially on 4k UHD digital copies.

I don't think sale prices have gotten worse. I think there's just more sales. A year ago you'd only have maybe 3-4 sales at a time. Right now there's two dozen sales. Around 2,000 titles are on sale. There's 5 Mix & Match sales. And plenty of titles are in the $5-$6 range. Even when movies are sale priced at $7-10, that's still 50%-25% Off the regular price.

I remember the days when we'd only get the monthly $6.99 sale and an occasional holiday sale.

the moviesanywhere app on your phone is a good place to see sales... it will show you how much a title costs throughout all available platforms.

I think Vudu knows that $4.99 is their sweet spot, so they run tests to see how people react at $6.99 and $7.99, or five for $20. I’ll pay more than $4.99 for recent releases, but not for catalog, unless it’s something that I never see on sale.

Fanflix definitely has great deals. I considered them kind of a gimmick, but less so now that they cover more than Lionsgate titles. The Sony deals have been particularly good.

Kinda kicking myself for having paid $9.99 for the new season of B99 about a month ago, especially because I’d already seen it.

I've got a few things from Fanflix. I would have gotten more but I already had some.
Yeah, 4.99 is pretty much my impulse point for a catalog title. MAYBE 5.99.
Obviously I'll go more for newer stuff. 14.99 is sort of my ceiling for new titles (which yes, means I won't get them upon brand new release.) At that point, 19.99 or more, I try to find a physical disc with digital copy.
I haven't really been watching itunes - I don't buy from them much but I've got some credit - are they movies anywhere compatible?

Yes, if it's a Movies Anywhere title (WB, Sony, Disney, Fox, Universal). Not Lionsgate, Paramount, MGM or A24 or other indies.

There's another website similar to this one where you can see iTunes movies that are on sale and if they're Movies Anywhere compatible.

Can anyone confirm that the Hostel bundle is the theatrical versions, which aren't available on disc? The first Hostel movie was one of the first movies I rented on Vudu and it was labeled R but I'm pretty sure it was really the unrated version.

Yeah all 3 are the rated version. I wish they had a bundle for the unrated ones.
