    Good spot. Iron Man's back in mine. I've given up guessing as to what the hell is up with these movies. Just glad they're back.

      Can any of the MODs check into whether or not these movies will be added back to D2D now? If they're showing back in people's UV lockers, I certainly hope so. Unfortunately I missed the boat on this one the first time, and would jump at the chance to do it now.

        This happened because Disney owns Marvel now. Apple and Disney have a strong association with each other ever since Steve Jobs, who started Pixar, came back to Apple. This is why Disney is the only one of the big six movie studios that has yet to sign up with UV. They're trying to support Apple's Keychest system through iTunes. I've been a loyal Apple user since 1985 and I like Disney a lot too, but I agree that they need to get on board with UV. They are fighting a losing battle that is only going to hurt them more the longer they hold out.

          I dont know about it hurting them. They always went agains the grain and still held a strong position. Firewire, thunderbolt, ipod aac, expensive macs, no-flash, they even have buttonless mice. Whoops this is about Disney not Apple when you put them together i lost track of what was going on.

          YES, DISNEY needs to get on board!

            The Avengers is going to be available to BUY on vudu, so why won't we get a UV digital copy code when we buy the Blu-ray? At least one that gives us both an iTunes AND UV version...

              Because The Avengers is the first Marvel movie distributed by Disney which is not part of UV at this time.

                Disney is considering UV if enough people use it. They could give both UV and iTunes Store codes in the meantime for a study. Apple could join UV which would shock everyone.

                    It seems Marvel pulled them. Seems only way they'll change their minds is if/when Disney joins UV. We'll see.

                        I started to create one but couldnt think of a good way to explain "why is this important".
                        Now that you mention this, maybe we should petition Vudu to add a sort feature to "My Vudu".

                          Disney is beta testing their own UV style service that expands beyond just movie locker, also rewards, etc. Visit http://disney.go.com/movies-rewards-more/ for info and I doubt they will join UV as a result

                            I have sent a complaint to Disney about this. Maybe if enough people complain they they join Ultra-Violet. I told them should include both Ultra-Violet and iTunes Store codes so that less people would complain.

                              But DisneyMoviesOnline can only be used through a web browser at this time, not other devices, unless they make an app for that. And I don't think they would get much support from manufacturers. And there's no disc to digital for it, you have to purchase a new copy, unless the movie came with a magic code, and out of my 25 Disney movies, only about 4 of them have one. Its also very difficult to add titles and the price is 7 dollars to add a blu-ray to your library. So I think this has a very limited appeal. I think if UV had 30 or 40 million users, they would join. We all need to recruit our friends!

                                The service hasn't launched yet and on Disney forums, albeit rumors they expect it will automatically unlock all of your movies based on Disney Movie Reward redemptions. Unique codes that like UV codes, unlock content including digital copies. Disney doesn't need support, they can develop apps for various Blu-ray players, TVs, consoles, phones, etc. Disney is powerful and big enough to do this alone, but I would rather have them join UV.
