I pre-ordered all 5 of them on 4K disc. I wanted the vinyl bundles, but that's too rich for my blood.

I watched the 4K disc of Django from Arrow Video yesterday, along with some Death Proof and Reservoir Dogs on BD.

I still have not seen F9 and don't know when I will get to it. The Green Knight opens July 30th and is one my most anticipated releases of the year.

Back trouble can be brutal. Hopefully the orthotics do the trick. Right there with you on the Green Knight as well.

I thought No Sudden Move is a Warner Bros movie but part of their HBO Max deal this year?

Yeah, 4 and 5 weren't listed when I first went to the site. I may have to pre-order all of them as well.

It didn't get a theatrical release so it became an HBO Max original.

Shoppable tv coming to U.K. via ITV. Sigh.

Like something an actor is wearing? A shade of lipstick, Mascara? Maybe a pair of sunglasses? Now you can buy the product direct from your tv with a pop up screen that offers products available in whatever specific screen you are watching.

Oh, just f*** off!

Gladly, it’s a opt in option and can be ignored on smart TVs (for now)

ATV+ shows coming to DISC !

Sorry for quoting my own post but i was reading this has been available on LG smart TVs in the USA for a short while. Just wondered if any of you guys have come across it and if so, how invasive is it? I’m guessing it’s via Web OS?

I own an LG smart TV and have never seen it. I didn't even know it existed until your post. So it must be something well hidden that needs to be activated.

I don’ t think they would be allowed to force it on people, at least I hope not. It’s my idea of hell. They are trying to make up for loss of advertising revenue because of streaming and folk skipping ads via set top boxes.

I technically have a Smart TV but I don't use the apps at all.

It's a start, I suppose, but not on 4K disc. You'll buy the BD but if you want to watch it in 4K/Atmos then you have to stick with the ATV4K.

Defending Jacob is really good. Easily the best thing I've seen on Atv+

Great to see. Plus, nice to see UHD market share over 10% due to the number of blockbusters starting to trickle out.

The controversial Goodbye Uncle Tom 4K disc is coming early next year also.

Do any owners use a wireless keyboard and mouse? If so, which one do you use?

Because the Apple TV 4K requires a Mac to setup Playback HUD I am considering a refurb Mini rather than a Mac virtual on a Windows machine.

As of now the Apple TV 4K (5th Gen) is out of stock at most authorized online stores including Amazon and B&H Photo.

I do not. I have the full size aluminum Mac keyboard with 10-key and I still use a 3-button mouse. I never did like the Mac mouses.
