Now then… let’s have some recent announcement news…

First, Warner Bros. officially announced the 8/11 4K Ultra HD release of Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks! (1996) in honor of the film’s 30th anniversary. The 4K disc will include a pair of new features: Looking Back on Mars Attacks! and Ack! Ack! Aesthetic.

This is just a quick post here at The Bits this morning to share an amazing piece of news…

Our friends at Lionsgate have finally joined the Movies Anywhere “digital movie locker” service, joining Universal, Disney, Sony, and Warner Bros. who are already there!

In the initial phase of Lionsgate joining, some 225 of their biggest titles will apparently be added, and the studio expects to add as many as 100 additional films per month through the rest of the year and into 2027.

What this means, of course, is that forthcoming Lionsgate 4K releases should finally come with Movies Anywhere Digital codes.

And it’s very likely that if you already own Lionsgate movies on other Movies Anywhere-linked services (like Apple TV and Amazon Prime), they could be upgraded in your Movies Anywhere library as well.

This is great news indeed, and you can read more about it here today at Deadline.

Huzzah!

Back later with more! Stay tuned…
