As did I (Aliens, Abyss, and True Lies 4K)- FYI they were $11.98 each + tax with a prior full price purchase. I definitely will miss DMC ...I received all three from DMC today. I was, although expecting them Saturday, but that’s ok. I’m going to start with The Abyss tonight.
I believe DMC "drop-ships" from Technicolor.
Technicolor split and disc manufacturing and is now VanitivaPossibly, but I'm not aware of any Technicolor warehouses in WI. All my TC drop ships seem to come from Memphis area. All my DMC packaages originate from Menasha/Neenah, WI. My group went Media Mail and to be delivered today, my friends shipped Priority to Hawaii 2 days after mine dispatched and delivered yesterday. Both went direct to USPS via Oak Creek WI and skipped the OSM (One Stop Shipping) variation when seems to stop in Glendale Hts IL
IndeedI got an Amazon update, now getting Aliens and True Lies on March 27th and The Abyss has a shipping window between April 1st and 10th. It’s getting closer and closer
Courtesy of Mr. Hunt and Digital Bits:
“True Lies, Titanic, and The Abyss were all mastered from 4K scans. Aliens
was mastered from the 2K scan used for the previous Blu-ray release.
Titanic was scanned in 2012. True Lies and The Abyss were done more
recently.
That's all per Geoff Burdick at Lightstorm."
So I finally decided to go with DMC for these. They made me an offer I couldn't refuse. I ordered the latest Featured Title -- The Falcon and the Winter Soldier UHD SteelBook, and added four other titles for 60% off. The Moon Knight UHD SteelBook (for $17.98) and the UHDs of The Abyss, Aliens, and True Lies (for $11.98 each).
Fortunately, they'll ship the 3 Cameron films soon-ish, so I don't have to wait for them with the 2 Marvel titles, which are pre-orders and won't come for another month.
I think they may be having supply issues. My Cameron titles (same as yours) didn't ship until about a week after they were released and I had pre-ordered them.Still haven't gotten any word from DMC about when these will ship. Maybe they'll ship everything in one package (when the two MCU titles come out) despite what they said in the order acknowledgement email.
In the meantime, I popped into a local Bull Moose today, and while they didn't appear to have The Abyss or True Lies, they had a handful of copies of Aliens.
No, I didn't pick up a copy; (a) I'm patient, and (b) I was buying enough other things already.
That, unfortunately, is correct, even if you redeemed thru Movies Anywhere. You can contact Walt Disney Home Entertainment Customer Service to register a complaint. The Abyss has the same issue.Question
I finally got the Aliens 4K, redeemed the digital code via VUDU and only got the theatrical cut. Is that right? What the best redemption method for True Lies and The Abyss?

Anyone disappointed that the digital copies of Aliens and The Abyss did NOT include the Special Edition cuts in 4K can call Disney Home Entertainment customer service at 888-223-4369. Currently, they are only collecting feedback, but if they receive plenty of complaints, they may actually fix the issue retroactively.
