Elf (2003) [SD] - Free on Google Play - Blu-ray Forum

AZBrowncoat · 12-22-2013, 04:46 AM

Google Play currently has Elf (2003) in [SD] for free.

They are also running some holiday deals on select movies and TV series.

Xena: Seasons 2-4 $4.99/season...oddly enough Season 1 is not available at all though.
Eureka: Seasons 1-5 $9.99/season
Heroes: Seasons 1-4 $9.99/season

I genuinely hate the way Google displays prices on movies and TV series where you have to click on each item to see the 'own' price vs the 'rental' price. Is there a setting to change that behavior?

I am a huge Will Ferrell fan, but Elf was one of the wors movies ever made, utter garbage. Causes actual pain watching it.

Someone's on the naughty list now. The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loudly for all to hear. I can take or leave Will Ferrell, but Elf is a genuine Christmas classic now.

Does google play stuff play on ... anything else?... it's not UV compatable or something is it?...

Just asking (I already have ELf on Blu...) I don't have anything from Google play yet and don't see the need for another service.

It shows up and plays on my iPad's YouTube app under Purchases, you can also use Chromecast ($35 USB TV stick) to watch it.

And no, its not UV enabled.

Tis what I thought... I think google play is bigger (more visable) for android users.

I don't want the chromecast gizmo.... but I'm sure lots of people do.

I didn't like this one the first time I watched it but liked it more with repeated viewing

I bought the Chrome Cast to stream from Xinfinity's website to my tv but the video and audio would skip frames and drop audio a lot. So I returned it to Best Buy since I already have a Roku 3 and PS3's for streaming. It worked fine for Netflix and Google Play since it has native apps for them.

I won't go out of my way to purchase any movies or TV series on Google Play but there is always the possibility that they might go UV at some point so grabbing something that is free can't hurt
