    World War Z Walmart/Vudu Pre-Order

    I really liked the movie and knew I'd want to own it after I saw it in theaters. When I saw Cloverfield was included in the pre-order and I'd get early access to the digital copy of WWZ, I figured, why not? And pulled the trigger. This is my first experience w/ Walmart/Vudu pre-order and I likely will NEVER do it again.

    Of course the pre-order cover art and crappy bundled designs are frustrating for my collection, but this is what really irked me:

    I saw today that my pre-order of WWZ doesn't grant me access to the Digital copy that's included with the ONLY Blu-Ray that will be available for purchase from Walmart on release day (http://www.walmart.com/search/search...h_constraint=0) Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...0z%20blu%20ray) and every other retail outlet which is the Unrated Extended edition.

    I'm seriously disappointed in Vudu for treating their pre-order customers so badly. I expected to get the same physical and digital copy that would be available in stores on release day, by pre-ordering, now I feel like I was given the bait and switch treatment.

    That can't be right. But even if it is, when you receive the Blu-ray you should have an UltraViolet code in it that can be redeemed.

    I just preordered my copy from Amazon.com!

      Your will receive the bluray which will have a digital copy code inside it. Also, hopefully the Icon that allows access to the trailer will become the actual movie soon.

      But FWIW, I am also done with preorders until they offer 3D editions or special exclusive packaging.

        It provided an HDX copy for me via the pre-order offer. Go to the movie http://www.vudu.com/movies/#!content/449022/World-War-Z is the one included with the offer.

          I think the complaint is that we do not have access to the Unrated Directors Cut today of the film, only the Theatrical. That is what I show in my account.

            Re: World War Z Walmart/Vudu Pre-Order

            Ok I think I see what's going on...

            1) Walmart Store Vudu Pre-Order
            • World War Z (Vudu Digital Copy)
            • Cloverfield (Digital Copy)
            • World War Z (Blu-Ray, DVD, UV Digital Copy)

            Released around Aug 1st
            $24.96

            2) Vudu Online Pre-Order
            • World War Z - Unrated (Vudu Digital Copy)
            • Cloverfield (Digital Copy)

            Released around Sep 1st
            $26.99

            So it's another of pre-order things where they are offering (I say) the better version later and some of us may be a bit jaded, especially after already paying for the first one. They should be released at the same time or we should know they are coming. I understand though that maybe this is the studios.

            Another couple facts. The Vudu site states the Unrated is not available on disc. The Walmart page for Blu-Ray agrees. The Amazon page doesn't state it's unrated but the photo has a sticker that say's it contains an unrated version on the Blu-Ray. Who knows.

            Also the Vudu Unrated pre-order IS $2 more and doesn't come with any disc's. Just saying.

              I'm sure they'll revert the artwork to the actual disc art after the title streets on the 17th. The problem with these pre-orders is that they offer them at retail so early (in some cases the same week the movie hits the theaters), that the studios don't even know what they are going to include on the DVD/Blu Ray.

              Suggestion to the VUDU GODS if they are listening...give us an option once the title goes live on the VUDU servers. Sure, not everyone is going to want the "unrated" version. Some might actually prefer what they watched in theaters. But for those of us who want all the bells and whistles, at least give us that choice once the studios determine what content they are going to provide on Ultraviolet. It will help ensure consumer loyalty next summer when all the big tentpole movies hit the theaters and we are given the next big wave of pre-order choices.

                The artwork will not change. Every preorder that I have made still displays the preorder artwork for the "bundle". It's not until you drill down into the bundle that you see the artwork for the movie. So the artwork that we're all complaining about is NOT for the movie, it's the artwork for the "bundle".

                  Re: World War Z Walmart/Vudu Pre-Order

                  I am a bit disappointed as well. Like I stated, I have the preorder and it says I only own the theatrical version. I would always prefer the Directors/Extended/Unrated cuts. Now, even though I have early access to the film, I don't want to watch it because I would rather see the Unrated cut for the first time. So I either have to wait till it maybe gets fixed, buy the Unrated version, or just keep and watch the theatrical.

                    Does anyone know if the UV code that comes with the Bluray will be for the theatrical version or the unrated version?

                      I heard its the theatrical, that's why I just went ahead and bought the unrated yesterday.

                        It looks like rated, because even the Flixster redemption page reflects the Rated artwork. Same with Paramount site. VUDU could add a redeem button on the unrated but we won't know until next week.

                              I don't like how on Vudu in order to get both cuts you have to buy each separately. If you buy the disc, you get everything in one package for one price. This is one thing that makes me hesitant to go all in on digital.

                              Want to watch a theatrical cut of a movie on Vudu? You have to buy the theatrical copy. Want to see the uncut version? Then you have to buy that version too.

                              That's ridiculous when you can pay one price for the Blu-ray version and get all versions. This goes for any title.
