Store "Hole" Feedback

The Patriot (2000) is available in 4k but only SDR; HDR is available on disk.

HDR is also on every other digital store. This title is on of K's earliest 4K releases, each of which Sony has updated since for both disc and digital distribution. K's still on the old/original release. This also applies to titles like Lawrence of Arabia, Taxi Driver, The Davinci Code, and another dozen or so.

I would love to get an update for those films.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) only available in HD.

Sony hasn’t distributed the 4K version digitally yet. Sometimes they never do (Stand By Me) so keep checking Apple.
 
Walk Like A Man (1987) starring Howie Mandel.

The film was an independent production produced by Howie Mandel and was originally distributed by MGM. Digitally it was at one time on Amazon Prime Video but is only currently available on Roku and Google Play in DVD quality. Is there any possibility that K will ever pick this up? I’d love for my kids to see it since I remember it being on cable TV frequently when I was a kid. I submitted a request to movies@kaleidescape.com.
 
Was Alexander The Final Cut ever on K? I thought at one point it was on my wish list. I know Shout released a 4K version. Wonder if we’ll get it?

At one point all three were on the K Store. At least two cuts (Director's & The Final Cut) were still on the store in 2024. I'm fairly certain the Theatrical Cut was gone before then as I would have picked up all three if they were available. But, only two? Nope, can't get 'em all. :)

I wouldn't expect the 4K version to hit K anytime soon. Regarding the HD version of the prior cuts? No idea why they aren't available. It's Warner*, nothing has changed regarding rights, and they've been continually and readily available on other digital stores.

*NEVER sleep on Warner. They're completely unpredictable and something can disappear for no reason.

Thanks! I should have purchased when it was on the store. Let’s hope it comes back (in 4K🤞🏻). Good advice about Warner.

Should that be showing up in my Updates list? Or is it shown some other place?

Apocalypto
Fire in the Sky
Lone Survivor

Yesterday is available in 4K, but Atmos is only available in HD.

Welcome to early Universal 4K releases which don’t have object sound available. Abominable, Apollo 13, Blackklansman, Bourne 1-4, Despicable Me trilogy, Glass, How to train your dragon trilogy, Lone Survivor, Oblivion, Pacific Rim Uprising, Shrek 1-4, Sing, The Blues Brothers, The Mummy Trilogy + Mummy 2017, The Prince of Egypt and the list goes on!

As you’ve noticed a lot of them have DTS-X or Atmos on the HD version but Universal can’t/won’t update the digital versions with lossless object mixes. We just have to be thankful that since about 2021/2022 they now always give us the object mixes.
 
Just saw that the Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein' is being release on disc on October 27th. I'm guessing its a longshot for a Kscape release since this is another Criterion release. 😢

Not just that, it’s a Netflix title so no digital except through Netflix,
 
I was going thru Blu-ray.com, but I don’t see any release date for Del Toro’s Frankenstein, there’s a placeholder but no firm release details. The only release date I see is (10/13) for the standard edition of FrankenHooker. 🤣🤣

Edit: the criterion website does have the release dates for October. 11/27 confirmed
