When it's not listed like that it means SD. Not very clear, for sure. It's SD on Vudu as well.

Thank You

Is MTM show only available in SD on Itunes? I didn't see the resolution listed on the Itunes page for the complete series.

yes. It’s sd. I’m selling my dvds as well as blu rays.
maybe they will upgrade to hd in the future. I’m not sure if they have done new mastering for them.

Just so long as you realize the SD listings that are later upgraded to HD require re-purchase. There is currently no “free upgrade” policy on SD purchases.

Ah. Good to know.

 

[Mark-P]

Just being curious why do you think that Mark?

Because of other high-profile MGM-controlled classics getting 4K upgrades such as the James Bond films, Rocky, and West Side Story.

Thank you for explaining your thought process.

And another high-profile MGM title just got a 4K upgrade: Rain Man.

Yeah, I noticed that yesterday, but without any HDR.

Yesterday, I almost bought "Alias" TV series in HD for $24.99 from iTunes then realize I never watched an episode of the DVDs I have of the five seasons. Also, thinking of buying "Black Lightning" Season 3 for $14.99.

Alias is currently Included on Prime.

It will be interesting to see what kind of a holiday sale we get starting tomorrow...

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Mr. Holmes finally dropped to $4.99 on iTunes so I just picked it up.

Also, thinking of buying "Black Lightning" Season 3 for $14.99.

If you enjoyed the first two seasons, I'd say the third season would definitely be worth it at that price. I thought the show really clicked this year.

Cotton Club 4K is $7. That seems good.

It was $4.99 a while back, IIRC.

I debated on (waiting for) this one, but decided I'd rather have it on BD w/ lossless audio instead... and jumped on the disc via Amazon's recent B2G1 deal -- it was ~$13 before applying the deal, and I got it alongside Art of Self-Defense and Color Out of Space (4K) w/ that deal, so final prorated price was ~$9. And of course, it still comes w/ a code for digital HD.

Probably woulda waited til the disc dropped to ~$10 otherwise.

Yeah, you're right Tony. I paid $9.99 for it.

 

[Osato]

I picked up the sound of music and red 2. Both titles are $5.

the recent tomb raider any good? It’s $5 as well.

The Jolie tomb raider film set is $20. I haven’t seen those in years. The first film individually is $5.

 

[Tino]

It’s good. Definitely better than Red 2!

Not sure how common this is for Vudu, but they're running a mix-and-match, 2-for-$8 bundle sale on what seems to be a bunch MGM titles:

Vudu - Watch Movies

www.vudu.com

Most of y'all probably already own all the (digital) titles of interest in this sale or may simply prefer to go (or wait for) 4K -- these all seem to be HDX only on Vudu so far.

There's also a similar sale for 2x 2-to-3-movie bundles (for $15), but that seems far less interesting, except for its inclusion of Silence of the Lambs 4K (bundled w/ Hannibal in HDX). I already recently sprung for SotL 4K on iTunes, so that doesn't interest me... and the other bundles are pretty meh (at least to me)...
