I haven't checked the 1080p version, but I find that typically the Movies Anywhere App has the latest remaster in 1080p as well, but VUDU tends to use whatever older 1080p version they already had and doesn't upgrade it.

VUDU has actually gotten better about that in the last few years. I use VUDU frequently as I like it better than MA.

Well, we already got a mashup of Showgirls and Hollow Man didn’t we?

The Greatest Show-Man?

Was finally going to get round to buying this from the USA on Amazon.com but they seem they don't seem to be selling it anymore. Saw it on Wow.Hd.co.uk for £16.00 but have read mixed reviews for them. Does anyone recommend them/had good experience for them? Cheers ��

Looks like some kind of big, fat SONY bug sucked the digital copy right out of this listing. Bestbuy and Wal-mart are still offering the DC edition, for interested Citizens.

Can anyone say if the included 1080p disc has the same BD Live glitch as the original release where you have to have a thumb drive inserted in order for the movie to play?

Get the UK region free BD, which has better PQ anyway.

Mumbles22 · 11-17-2020, 02:21 PM

Thanks HD Goofnut, I want the 4k disc though. Was just curious if that glitch was fixed on the new BD, as I have the old one and it's annoying having to use a thumb drive. That would make the 4k release a justifiable purchase for me right now since I still don't have a 4k player.

Just checked, no thumb drive needed.

CROUCHING TIGER is a 4k that gets rave reviews. I happened to rent a copy and didn't like the ants. I have a 80inch Samsung 4k tv. So looks like maybe I should skip this 4k of STARSHIP TROOPERS.

Please do and spare us the tedious bullsh*t.

Just steer clear of anything shot on film and you'll be fine

Herbert's player may have some internal persistent memory rather than needing the thumb drive tho

The old disc still required a thumb drive on my player (Sony X800M2). I guess Sony fixed the issue for the 4K batch.
