Yes, historically, I'd agree. That was a long time ago though. Last few years not so much. They've done away with 'bossing near enough entirely, and many of their UK/EU steels now have the horrible habit of being matte/zero vs US gloss counterpart.Paramount have always put out steelbooks with great finishes.....
Iron Man, Iron Man 2, The Transformers movies, Pain & Gain, TMNT etc....
What titles are you talking about?many of their UK/EU steels now have the horrible habit of being matte/zero vs US gloss counterpart.
Examples of recent EU paramount steels that have a sh!t finish vs the US?What titles are you talking about?
It did. Both variants were glossy, which tend to be paramounts go to when the steel isn't black. All the recent matte examples I could think of oddly enough were of black steels though hahaDefinitely hit or miss with most studios nowadays. Although, Top Gun Maverick had a decent finish, did it not?
Ugh, black is literally the worst colour for matte too... makes it look super dull and streaky.It did. Both variants were glossy, which tend to be paramounts go to when the steel isn't black. All the recent matte examples I could think of oddly enough were of black steels though haha

Yep. Assuming it’s (hopefully high quality) matte, then it really needs spot gloss on the front and back.Pretty nice but a crappy finish will kill it
Yeah, matte over a gloss base with spot gloss elements will be nice, as would full gloss. Basic matte on bare metal will suck.Yep. Assuming it’s (hopefully high quality) matte, then it really needs spot gloss on the front and back.
I think all of paramounts recent "new" releases have been £35. As was cloverfield, which was completely ridiculous.It's still £35
Sorry. Not worth it. Obvs trying to recoop lost box office revenue.
No mass market steel should be over £30 UK.
Maybe it'll drop?
Probably not.
Cloverfield was 32.99 with a PET slip. Still way overpriced as is thisI think all of paramounts recent "new" releases have been £35. As was cloverfield, which was completely ridiculous.
