Check out the Coming soon area of on demand and it should tell you when it will be available. If you just can not wait go to Amazon.com. The movie you are looking for is on there for purchase. Digital purchases are always about six weeks sooner the video rental.
Then the only other option is to rent or buy from Amazon.com or Vudu.com. The movie is available on both services. Rental 5.99 for 2 days or you can buy digital download for 19.95. Or you can purchase it on a DVD from both Amazon and Walmart. If you have a Vudu account if you link your Walmart account to Vudu it will be deposited in your Vudu account within a few hours and available to watch. Redbox has a online service you can rent and buy digital copies of the movie. Also look at Fandango I found it there for the same price a Vudu and Amazon. I do not rent from U verse and have found all of these services to be comparable to U verse. I hope this helps.
i’ve asked y’all twice on customer service and i got a wrong answer both times, here i am 10 days after it’s available for rent on itunes and available for sale in the stores, not just on digital. and lo and behold there’s no star wars in the menu. i’m only upset that twice y’all told me it will be available in a couple days, and that was 10 and 7 days ago, respectively. why don’t y’all know what is in the coming soon menu already? or why don’t know when it’s coming at least? can’t you take 30 sec to find out before answering the question?
Since this is a peer-to-peer forum NO ONE here has any insider information. The best you can hope for is that someone will see something online and post it here.
Don't mess with old people. The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

I actually had the same problem and asked about it. They said the same thing to me and I got the same result. The most recent and straight forward answer I was able to get out of them is that it isn't going to be available... I have no clue why but since both Thor and Star Wars aren't available, I'd assume it is an exclusivity deal with Disney Studios. Maybe U-verse ticked them off or something. I'm disappointed too and hope this gets resolved.
Hope this helped to at least put your mind at ease so you don't keep expecting it to show up.
The worst thing a company can do is keep customers in the dark. They should have the decency to inform their users that blockbuster movies such as Thor and Star Wars will no longer be available. If we need to look for other provider options, then let us know.
