If you have a program like MakeMKV, your rights to obtain a digital version of the film will never expire.

On the Blu-ray.com board, people were saying it only redeems at FUNimation's site. I don't know personally, as I never used mine. I bought the movie on release day @ Walmart, and got a Vudu digital copy (dual language) via their InstaWatch program.

I ended up just buying the digital from Amazon since I had some promo credit. It’s not really what I wanted but it’s ok.

You're out of luck, I'm afraid. The digital copy moved from Funimation to UltraViolet, and UltraViolet shut down. I pinged Funimation about it a while back and basically there's nothing they can do.

Seems to be an option on Vudu.com

just choose "Digital copy". "English language copy" and "dual language bundle" are the redeemable options.

It's genuinely easy to rip a Blu-ray yourself.

Reviving this thread as it seems we will be getting Shin in 4k. Hoping they go the Minus One route and port over as much of the special features as possible.

Now if only Arrow can get permission to release the 4K versions of the Gamera trilogy.

It does deserve a better US release then what it got. And I'm sure companies have noticed that Godzilla fans are a niche that actually buys this stuff.

I've seen a few folks online reporting that GKIDS has applied for an MPAA rating for Shin Godzilla. That certainly seems to bode for them releasing this thing.

I bet if the GKIDS acquisition happened earlier they would've released Minus One.

I hope so. I'd love to see it on the big screen again if possible.
