Thanks! Found the sticker in the trash. This is different than WB's? No access on Flixster? You just log in on uvvu.com. Also noticed you can download HD and SD versions of the film.

Much different than WB's UVDC format. I wonder how Universal will do their UVDC codes.

persianguido · 12-03-2011, 06:09 PM

what is their email because i accidently threw mine away

Saturius · 12-03-2011, 06:13 PM

I'm giving away the code for the ultraviolet. First to PM gets it.

Edit: Given out.

Today i was at walmart getting a ps3 controller and decided to blind buy friends with benefits, but my store had no copies of fwb on blu-ray or dvd, no places on the shelves, no standees, nothing. Has any one else seen no copies at their store?

THALL434 · 12-03-2011, 08:28 PM

One of my Walmarts did and the other didn't.

its a Friday release and someone is not doing their job. I bet it will be there Tuesday. Those guys get in a cycle and forget....you should have mentioned to the manager it was advertised for sale on the Sensormatic antenna at the front door.

vidjunkie · 12-03-2011, 08:40 PM

It was not on the shelf when I went in on Friday, I asked the Lady and she went in back and brought them out, they have the single version and the combo.

Austinrains41 · 12-03-2011, 09:26 PM

Alright, i'll go back tomarrow and ask if they have any in the back.

Yeah, I went to Target yesterday afternoon--and they didn't have any copies on the shelf. When I asked about it, they told me it didn't come out yet! So, after a little confusion/explainin', I finally landed my copy.

It appears more than a few stores were unaware of the Friday release for FWB, but I'll bet they all had The Smurfs out (mine did).

I don't own Friends with Benefits and Smurfs yet but if some of you are interested in complaining about other newer releases like Crazy Stupid Love, The Smurfs, and Friends with Benefits that come with ultraviolet but are not itunes compatible they are now listed on the ultraviolet/flixster page. I don't know if they will send an itunes code with these newer titles since Smurfs and Friends with Benefits are Sony movies, but it doesn't hurt to complain and try right? here is the link again http://support.ultraviolet.flixster....e&folderID=127

you will have to click on "request support" and then fill in the request form.

All the recent combo packs seem to have gone down to $19.99 before release and this one is still $24.99 at Amazon.

Figures.

Unless it gets a relatively quick drop (before the end of the month), I'll probably just wait for the single disc to get really cheap and buy that one.

hardtosayx · 12-05-2011, 08:33 AM

Well they're price matching, no one has this for $19.99

I'd probably only bite at $19.99 for the combo pack, but I'm pretty sure it's at least $22.99 somewhere and Amazon didn't match that.

Hopefully, we'll see a few dollar drop soon, like a lot of new releases that I'm not usually patient enough to wait for, but then again this one probably won't do that, just because I want it.

hardtosayx · 12-05-2011, 06:58 PM

Oh yeah it's $22.99 this week at Target. Amazon doesn't always match

Saturius · 12-05-2011, 09:39 PM

Do people really want the combo pack for this? I could see wanting it if maybe all the extras only existed in the combo pack version(as many studios seem to be doing this nowadays) but all the bonus features are on the standard one disc Blu Ray version. And that includes the UV copy crap too. And if you complain enough to the studio, I hear they'll give you a digital copy as well. I don't know why stores are basically for all intents and purpose charging $5 more for just the extra DVD. Single disc $19.99. Same disc but just an added DVD $24.99? That's crazy.

I would since I could get some use out of the DVD, but I passed on buying this because they priced it too high for this time of the year. I'll rent it and then buy it when this goes on sale because, like you said, $5 extra right now for just the DVD is too high. The Hangover 2 and Cowboys & Aliens combo packs are $19.99 this week, which is more like it.

The dvd by itself is selling for $16.99. You really think $5 more for the added dvd in the combo pack is crazy?
