    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    Example from Leon The Professional. Easy to understand versions on UHD and HD but I 50/50 on the HDR version. Not that important but why not state 'Theatrical Version' instead of just 'Movie'.

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    I can confirm this. Downloaded both and double checked. I mailed K about the info that is misleading on the store. The running time is just a difference in 21 seconds so it's correct. Unrated Director's Cut (103:14), the R-Rated Theatrical Cut (102:53) so they both are 103mins UHD = Unrated...

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    Yes. Totally agree. These are on the 'not important' list. I left out those that got stuck on Laserdisc (Ransom and Dead Poets Society)

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    Great investigation! I double checked my Pacific Rim: Uprising cover and it is only one version. I must have misread the cover when I bought it. One more disc to D2D and one less disc to keep. Thank you. I update my post above.

    Change download settings?

    Great. That explains it. I usually add the HD to the download que and if the extras are in a separate file a download that and delete the movie. If it's one file I delete it to save space.

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    Yes, I watched it around Christmas. It was some kind of deal on it back then and my thoughts was exactly like yours. Bought it anyway since the difference is minor and still have the Criterion Laserdisc if I ever would care to see those seconds that they cut. Just checked the few scenes today...

    Change download settings?

    Hmmm... What settings do you have under System Pairing Options? There is a option to choose to download HD and SD to your Encore or Premiere system. I'm not sure if there is another setting as well.

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    I can now 100% confirm that the UHD version available is the Director's Cut of Robocop. The HD is the R-rated version. Running time and info on the Movie Store seems to for the HD version. But it's lite 21 seconds longer version so they probably have the same running time.

    Change download settings?

    Do you have more Premiere zones than the CoStar player? If you do have additional zones the Premiere system will automatically download the HD version since it's compatible with the other zones.

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    For me it’s not that I want to watch the same movie multiple times in different versions. I only want (have time) to watch it once and when I watch it, I want to watch the version I prefer. Not necessarily the longer version. Many movies is very different but some are, as you say, impossible to...

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    Almost Famous is only the longer Bootleg Cut so it's the theatrical version that's missing. I'm 99.9% sure it's the Unrated version of Robocop that's available. But I can be mistaken. Edit 1: Shop states R and not Unrated so I'm down to 99.8% sure. Edit 2: OK. I'm down to 0.01% certainty of...

    Missing Alternative Cuts in 4K HDR

    I planned to start kind of similar thread since I also care for alternate versions of movies. Especially movies that is kind of "working" better dramaturgical. For example Terminator 2, The Abyss, Aliens, Da Vinci Code and the Lord of the Rings movies. But the list can go on. I started thinking...

    Star Trek: TMP- The Director’s Edition request

    I did something like that but completely opposite. I bought them all but waiting for the TMP Director's Edition before I watch them. I was hoping for a quick update. But still waiting.... To bad I got stuck on the first movie.
