Disney must be getting a lot of orders with the program being discontinued. I ordered a UHD disc to use up my remaining reward points three weeks ago, and the item still hasn't shipped yet. Under normal circumstances, orders would be shipped out in a day or two.

I'll do one better: I ordered two items on August 30...one has arrived, the other has "shipped." Another from September 4 is still in pending status...but I did receive a poster ordered on September 7.

My 2nd order, placed the day after the closing announcement, still hasn't shipped. I got the first, placed the first day, a couple of weeks ago.

And still nothing new, at least with physical media, on the site... I'm about to just burn off my remaining points on a couple of titles I really don't want just to be done with them... of course, if I do that they'll immediately add a dozen titles I'd have rather had...

 

[Doug Wallen]

I am in the same boat, used my points for a film and it still hasn't been shipped. Maybe it'll be a Christmas gift !

 

[Jake Lipson]

I'm also waiting, but I think we need to be patient here. They are probably dealing with more orders at any single time than they've ever had because everyone is trying to use up points. So it makes sense that they would have a large backlog to get through. Previously, they probably didn't have literally everyone who has an account redeeming stuff at exactly the same time.

 

[BobO'Link]

I'm quite patient about the unshipped title. I get it...

I *am* impatient about the total lack of anything truly new being added for point redemption.

I agree that this is a bummer. But I don't really expect them to add much of value at this point. They're clearly just winding down the service and have no real incentive to change the reward selections. I'd love to be wrong about this, but unfortunately I think that's where we are.

I agree - I just kind of hold out a smidgen of hope that they'll come across a "few" copies of previously offered titles I might have need for in my collection... I'm really leaning towards just cashing out on whatever will use the most points and calling it a day.

I have just over 1500 points left after redeeming points for the Oliver & Company/Fox and the Hound 3-movie pack and a Mystery DMC Blu-ray (I'm taking a chance on that since I was never a DMC member, and there were lots of exclusive titles). Both were ordered on the same day. The former has been shipped and arrived yesterday. The latter is still being processed.

I have complained to customer service many times that I have points and nothing to really spend them on. I have even suggested they put up some Movies Anywhere codes, as that would take very little effort to process those once ordered (nearly identical to a e-Gift Card). Doubt that will happen, though.

 

[Todd Erwin]

Oh, and all my Sony movie codes have since expired...

Yet, my Universal codes are still valid.

Disney did add a few new Blu-rays as rewards this week, including Logan, the first two Deadpool films, and Kingsman: The Golden Circle. I think this is the first time I've ever seen them give out R rated movies as rewards.

 

[BobO'Link]

And, of course, I already own BR copies of all the movies they added... At least the *are* adding new things so hopefully some'll come along I don't own and would like to add to the collection.

 

[Todd Erwin]

Be sure to check the SALE tab on DMI, as there are quite a few items, including 3D Blu-rays, that are heavily discounted that are NOT appearing on the Movies At Home tab:

Captain America: Civil War 3D Blu-ray/Blu-ray/Digital - 800 points
Captain America: The Winter Soldier 3D Blu-ray/Blu-ray/Digital - 900 points
Finding Dory Blu-ray/DVD/Digital - 650 points
Avengers: Age of Ultron 3D Blu-ray/Blu-ray/Digital - 800 points
Tangled Blu-ray/DVD - 900 points

These are some of the better deals on the SALE tab, but there are many more, and may change on Wednesday.

Yet, my Universal codes are still valid.

And all my unredeemed Sony codes are operational again... except they are still for the same sucky movies.

 

[Todd Erwin]

Nothing new today, and most if not all of the sale items I noted above look to still be available.

 

[David Norman]

DMI did add a bunch of relisted items starting around Noon throuhg 1-1:15ET
, but most of them seemed to be 1-2 quantity and were often gone almost as fast as they were posted

 

[Jake Lipson]

From a cursory glance this morning, I didn't notice anything new today. The Blu-ray of Logan is the first movie listed and that was there last week too.

 

[Todd Erwin]

Received my "DMC Mystery Blu-ray" today, finally - it was a retail version Blu-ray/DVD version of Brave, which is NOT a DMC exclusive.

I already own two copies of this film - the 3D Blu-ray and the 4K.
