My guess for the release date is late April, which will put it just before Age of Ultron's UK cinema release. As for artwork I'm guessing a group picture for the cover, Loki and the Sceptre on the back and this shot from the film on the inside.

 

[gaeljet]

any idea /hint on the pre order date and above al things when the art will be revealed?

Seriously. I'm with Forbes on the Avengers (Assemble) when they said - "I sat through two hours and 22 minutes of The Avengers. And when it was over, I wanted my $15 back."

The vast majority of people don't know their blu ray is edited; I'm sure a large number of those that did find out the film was edited didn't care that much.

It's over 30 years now since the BBFC was tasked with rating home video and they used to be pretty severe about it. We are lucky we can (customs willing) buy a DVD or blu ray from anywhere in the world and play it on our region free players. We can find the version with the best picture and sound quality, unedited, and be content.

is this still the kerfuffle over the spear tip ? or is there more that's missing bar joss whedons commentary from the uk disc

So if you didn't like the film, why are you in a thread talking about it?

You'd be surprised.

Of note, the BBFC weren't aware that the film had been edited from it's theatrical release.

Home video releases have to go through the BBFC to get classified. This is because a movie may receive a higher, or indeed lower certificate for viewing at home. There have been cases where a movie was a 15 at the cinema but an 18 on VHS (because viewers could rewind and review scenes of violence etc.) and even 15 at the cinema and 15 on VHS but cut (Eraser) where the option would have been upgrading it to an 18. Also bear in mind that 12A isn't a home viewing certificate, only 12.

The version we have on DVD and Blu-ray was submitted by Disney in that edited version (missing the spear tip but gaining the shwarma scene which the UK didn't have at the cinema). The BBFC rated it 12, and after the issue was raised said they'd have given the unedited version a 12 too.

All of you stop going on about the bloody spear tip! I keep seeing the thread bump to the top thinking it that its gone live or artwork has been released!! [emoji12]

 

[Kizza]

Couldnt of said it better @Steelselecta

Its Avengers and its a Lenti. End of conversation. Instant purchase.

 

[TotteAnnerbrink]

Any updates?

 

[Jb162009]

I reckon this wont be released to approx a week before Avengers 2 gets to cinemas.

Hopefully artwork is revealed soon though

 

[GeekSexy]

The ironic thing about all of this edited movie banter is that half of the people complaining about the cut will NEVER open their Steelbook anyway. I already own the Avengers, I'm just interested in the Steelbook.

Haha . Yeah I'm not remotely bothered about the spear tip tbh - but after the Guardians of the Galaxy art reveal I'm slightly concerned the art for this will end up as Captain America's mouthwash or something...

Exactly, all I'm looking for is the actual steelbook itself.

yes but I can't tell you

LMFAO!![emoji23]

 

[Kashby]

I hope they don't go all iron man 3 and GOTG on us and give us a rubbish design, but got a feeling it will be something like the tessaract briefcase!

Did captain America use mouthwash on screen in this one?

Tastes like freedom?

It'll be interesting to see what direction they go in. I have a feeling it won't be quite as "abstract" as the GotG one though

If the design sux, then it's an easy pass... or wait till later to pick it up for cheap

Couldn't agree more @charleybusko!
