    JAWS 2 UHD?

    Was wondering if anyone knows whether Jaws 2 was getting a UHD upgrade? I don't see where is has yet but thought maybe since there's a sale on the series VUDU was in a holding pattern.

    FelipeF any information on this?

    I believe that it will eventually since it's from Universal Studios.

    873 UHD
    835 HDX

      Street release date was 7/4 for 4k disc...was hoping to get the digital UHD version to go along with the original Jaws here as well.

        Do any other providers have this in 4K UHD? I don't think it's just Vudu.

            It redeems as UHD on Movies Anywhere but not sure it will play there in 4K and not available in 4K from any other streaming vendors.

              If redeemed as UHD on MA, then it will upgrade on all MA retailers to UHD when the retailers get the movie in UHD.

              I have a few movies that redeemed on MA as UHD/4K even though no one, including MA, had it in UHD/4K, and have those in whatever the highest resolution available on the MA retailer (typically HD). As soon as the retailer offered the movie in UHD/4K, my HD copy would upgrade.

                Since no retailer has the upgraded version just yet...I believe I'm going to wait a bit until it shows it has been added before redeeming. So back in the steelbook the redemption slip goes for now!

                  This needs to be enabled on Vudu. I have no idea why it takes so long for Vudu to enable Universal 4K redeems. Have a code from my 4K purchase - would prefer to redeem on Vudu. FelipeF

                    Per customer service at Movies Anywhere:

                    Universal has been re-releasing movies in 4k and including 4K codes even though digital is not available. If you redeem it in your account, you should receive a 4K version, but will only play in HD or the highest format available, until it's released in 4K. I can't find any information specifically on Jaws 2, but Universal has been re-releasing movies in 4k and including 4K codes even though digital is not available. If you redeem it in your account, you should receive a 4K version, but will only play in HD or the highest format available, until it's released in 4K. Once released, you would have access to the 4K version with that code. Once released, you would have access to the 4K version with that code. You could definitely reach out to Universal for more information on a potential release date for Jaws 2 4K though.
                    I have had the same issues with the following Universal titles:

                    12 Monkeys
                    Big Miracle
                    Captain Underpants

                    Although I was granted 4K rights when redeemed on Movies Anywhere, NOT ONE RETAILER INCLUDING VUDU has any of these films in 4K, not even Movies Anywhere. As the rep at Movies Anywhere stated, you might be better off contacting Universal Home Entertainment's customer service dept.

                        I think it has been added? It shows 4k UHD under the title. At the bottom of the page it says UHD 4K, Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 Are you UHD ready?

                        Though, it's not purchasable in 4k yet.

                          Jaws 2 was never remixed in 5.1. The new 4K disc still has mono audio.

                            Vudu has the bad habit of indicating that the audio is 5.1 when only stereo on titles that are upgraded to 4K. They did the same with "Vacation" 4K and I submitted a ticket about it but it has not been corrected.
