I clicked your 2001 link.
quote:

Confirm purchase

Buy 2001: A Space Odyssey UHD $14.99 $0.00

Continue Cancel

The price before discount is the median price for the last 90 days.

Clicking Continue makes the video available, and you agree it will not be refundable if the video is watched or downloaded.

What is this saying, exactly?

Not refundable if the video is watched or DL'd?

Ordinarily, if you purchase a movie, you can't get a refund if you watch or download. Here, the cost is $0, so I don't think it matters.

The receipt Amazon emailed me was for $0.

Holy shite this worked. And the movie is on my Vudu library

Sadly, the only one I want and don't have is NOES...but I apparently own it..for now.

Yeah I just clicked NOES, Fugitive, and 2001 and it says they are all purchased (for $0). I don't have prime video though, so not sure how that works.

I was able to get The Fugitive and 2001 an hour ago but now they're all back to normal.

My bad, I didn't double check the two I got earlier. 2001 is still showing up as free.

edit - Now it's showing up as $14.99

Looks like a bunch of movies I claimed yesterday for free were removed from my Amazon account. I claimed them all, but all I currently have left are:

Ernest Saves Christmas
The Replacements
2001: A Space Odyssey
A Christmas Story
