I hate the app on my Android TV. I use the Xbox app so I don’t have to click on stuff to see the price or whether I already own it.

Watched Horror of Dracula which seems to be sourced from a very old master, where it’s follow-up, Brides of Dracula is a beautiful technicolor transfer.

For those who like collecting digital movies. Big sales coming up

I hate it when they don't have the price in the icon, and some aren't even on sale (yet).

I just got an email from Vudu that 24 movies in my library have been upgraded to UHD. Some went from SD to UHD. Cool!

I am curious as to how VUDU arrives at its valuations.
6 seasons of The Flintstones on sale for 39.99 regularly 496 dollars 🤪😵‍💫

I got a UHD upgrade for 24 titles as well. All Sony Pictures.

Mine is mostly Sony and a few WB:

I got an email saying that they upgraded 3 titles, but I already had three titles (So I Married an Axe Murderer, Blade, and As Good As It Gets) in 4K.

These were my upgrades, Sony and Warner

Those are all Sony except the two Denzel films, as far as I know. What's weird is that films that other here have had Upgraded I own and they're not Upgraded for me (Lego Movie 2, Zombieland, Paddington 2). I wonder what's going on with this? If it's not everyone who owns the film in HDX, maybe it's a slow roll out? Maybe they capped it at 24?

I haven't gotten an email yet... either a slow roll out or nothing in my library to qualify (that I hadn't already upgraded).

I only got 2 upgrades
Philadelphia and The Mask of Zorro
but no complaints

Finally got an email with a whopping two upgrades

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Last Action Hero

I got the email last night. Only 6 titles and 5 I had already upgraded thru Vudu (or purchased in 4K via FanFlix) for $4.99/ea. Stripes (Theatrical) is the only one I didn't have in 4K.

4K UHD Upgrade Summary:

• The Lost Boys
• Upgraded from HDX to 4K UHD
• Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
• Upgraded from HDX to 4K UHD

• The Road Warrior (Mad Max II)
• Upgraded from HDX to 4K UHD
• Close Encounters of the Third Kind (Director's Cut)
• Upgraded from HDX to 4K UHD

I got my little 'We miss you!" email from VUDU with a $3 credit. Used it to get the Star Trek Animated Series from the Early Black Friday Sale for $10.99
I'm questioning ALL of my life choices now ...

Also, the only upgraded title in my library was Wonder Woman.

I picked up Trek animated also. Great price.

Watching it right now! When I saw it was on sale I thought "I'll probably bite at $19.99"

Worked out much better than that!

NCIS: Los Angeles is $35 for all 14 seasons. Series ended in May 2023.

https://www.vudu.com/content/browse/...undle-/2384651

That's an excellent deal. At $20 per season on average normally, you're saving a ton.

I missed most of the final season because Paramount + does not have the rights to the entire series and pulls it after the season wraps. So I went ahead and got it.

I know most here don't care for CBS cop shows, but if you are a fan of the series or have only seen it occasionally, I would jump at this.

Got another one

​​​​​Upgraded from SD to 4K UHD.

Are they doing away with SD copies?

Very interesting change here. I often check VUDU when it comes to these Fanflix sales to see if I already had a movie in my collection or not.
Every time I have checked and I do it says "You own HDX" or "You own 4K UHD".
Today I checked about Babylon and it said this instead :


So the choice of words is curious. I have that movie, but I don't own a copy any more?

You never owned the movie. You own a license for the movie. This is why many people don't fully buy into digital collections.

I am aware. It's just curious that they've changed the wording on their site now. Maybe on advice of attorneys, or following a recent lawsuit?
