I have a bunch of films with UV codes and no dates but there are a few with actual expiration dates that have passed so they definitely won't work anymore, right? Never tried it.

Amelie
City of God
Cloud Atlas
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy

I also have four Disney distributed Ghibli films with codes but they don't mention digital versions of the film, so I'm guessing they're just online extras. Is that right?

Nausica of the Valley of the Wind
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away
The Wind Rises

The Disney ones didn't come with codes tho.

I'm asking if those are definitely dead since those are the only ones I noticed have expiration dates. edit: That have passed. I have a few with dates that expire in 2018 and a few that don't seem to have a date at all.

Probably not. I gave away a code last week that was almost 4 years expired and it still worked.

The dates aren't exactly set in stone so you won't know until they get redeemed.

Expired codes still work 99% of the time.

The Disney codes with the Ghibli films will be DMR points, but not actual movies. It's a loyalty program. Collect enough points, get Disney freebies.

I'll grab one of those if no one else claims em.

Do they all give the same amount of points?

Do they all give the same amount of points?

DMR codes from DVD = 100 points
DMR codes from Blu = 150 points

Movies that come with a digital copy use one code for both.

So, to use a recent post as an example, the Moana code that androvsky snagged at the top of the page granted him the movie and 150 DMR points. If someone had posted the code from the Moana DVD (which does not include a digital copy), it would have only granted 100 DMR points.

Studio Ghibli films don't include digital copies, so if there is a Disney code in there, it will only grant the DMR points.

Blu-ray redemption values generally start at around 1000 points and go up to 2500 points (to give a general idea of point value).

As long as they're UV codes, they SHOULD still work past expiration. If they're VUDU codes, they probably won't work.

As for the Disney movies, those MAY be DMA codes, which work with a number of services as long as you connect your DMA account to them - but I'm not sure if Ghibli movies come with DMA codes or something else.

Since I'm the one of the only ones who actually answered your question, if you ARE giving these away, I'd love The Wind Rises or TTSS.

:lol

I found two more with expired UV codes, The Road Warrior and Prometheus. The Road Warrior is the only one that mentions Vudu. It says it's redeemable on Vudu or Flixter.

So,

Films with expired UV codes that might still work:

Amelie
City of God
Cloud Atlas
Prometheus
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
The Road Warrior (Vudu)

Disney Movie Rewards points only, no film:

Nausica of the Valley of the Wind
Princess Mononoke
The Wind Rises

Gave the Spirited Away code to Syriel for helping me out.

ModBot them sons of bitches. :p

I'll do the ModBot thing for these.

Edit: can these codes be redeemed at a single site or do you have to go to the specific sites named on the card?

Most UV codes will work on Vudu at least. They're guaranteed to work on the site listed on the card, though (ignoring the possible expiration date issues, of course)

UV Codes can all be redeemed (and checked for validity) here:
https://www.myuv.com/redeem

You can also check the validity of a UV code by entering it on the myuv site without confirming the redemption.

This is because myuv.com is the official UV backend, but not an actual storefront. When you go through the redemption process, it will direct you to a compatible storefront for redemption (like Vudu).

There are a handful of exceptions to this (some Lionsgate titles require you to specifically go through the Lionsgate portal), but it otherwise works for nearly all UV films.

Disney Movie Codes (points + movie) can be redeemed here:
https://redeemdigitalmovie.com/

That will let you select your chosen provider, or you can redeem direct through Disney.

Disney codes that are points only will not work at the RDM site.

Disney Rewards Codes (just points, no movies) can be redeemed here:
http://www.disneymovierewards.go.com/

Oh snap. Okay, let me see if they work.

Edit: Every code but Prometheus works. The Prometheus code is longer than the others so you'll probably have to redeem it here: foxuv.com/prometheus (which now redirects to foxredeem.com)

so is it over?

Modbot isn't always instant.

Sometimes it takes a bit to PM folks.

You can always still enter, as if something wasn't claimed, it goes into first come, first serve mode based on time stamp.

No matter what, thanks to PSY・S for putting on the giveaway.
 

AlteredBeast

Fork 'em, Sparky!
I got the Princess Mononoke Disney Rewards points, Thanks Psy - S!

Always love earning my way towards more Disney Blu-rays. I have gotten 4 from them for free already, already almost have enough points for another.
