PSN and Movies

Scrublet

This may just be a product of me not knowing how the system works, but earlier tonight I wanted to do something simple:

Watch The Book of Eli on PSN.

I cannot find it on the PSN playstation interface at all. However it's listed in that link clear as day, with the options to rent or own it clearly present (I think?). Just to make sure I'm not completely crazy, I went to Elf, which I saw on the screen, and found its link here. It's listing also lists all rent/own SD/HD options, but in the actual store Owning HD is not an option.

Is the lesson learned here that the PSN website is complete fucking shit and that if you don't see it ON THE SYSTEM it's not reliable, or is there something else here I'm not aware of?

Not under 'Book' or 'The', so yeah, they don't have it.

Right, I'm dead sure it's not on the PSN store.

My question here is whether the site (through a web browser, not the PS3) is just broken/not updated, or if there's something else there that should have indicated to me that the movie isn't available.

Nothing I could find.

The screen you linked looks just like every other movie. Says '2010' for released, the format options were not links on either movie.

Maybe site not updated, which is weird, since it's been out on video awhile.

Here talks about it being a top seller at one point. Is the PSN like NetFlix where movies come and go? I thought once added they stuck around on the PSN.
