I got the below email from Entertainment Store last night after enquiring about what they had lined up and it seems to be a clue pointing towards a forthcoming release. Really cool way of dropping details about their releases and hopefully this one comes out next!!

Fingers crossed! I assume it's Forbidden Planet from that pic. If anyone has any other guesses then shout

Never said i was annoyed that this was getting some kind of recognition. Just said the cover is cool but im not into retro movies. People are getting real hung up on that

I was born in 1984 so the cutoff isnt my age. The cutoff is my past experience with movies and basically the only movies ive enjoyed from the 70s i can count on 1 hand. I never said old movies are worthless so please stop spreading nonsense. Thanks

You people should get a grip. If you like it and want it then buy it, if someone says they dont like or want it theres no need to jump and protect the movie. I dont see how me not liking older movies is really any of your business.

My time here thus far has been cool and id like for it to stay that way so cut the gang mentality and elitist nonsense and leave me out of it. If you read my original post it only said i like the cover but im not into old movies, yet clearly some people arent happy to read that and insist i rethink my entire past in order to conform with them.

Cant even believe i bothered to write all this...am i really feeding the trolls? Hard to tell

 

[zoneism]

Yep, fair enough. I reckon everyone has had their say so let's move the chat on to the FP Steelbook again

I totally agree with what you say. You never insulted the film, never said that it didn't deserve a Steelbook just that you don't like older films. While I don't necessarily understand that viewpoint, I can appreciate that it is your opinion. You're not saying you sat through every pre-1977 and decided that each of them was rubbish, just that they are not your thing the same way someone would say that horror films aren't their thing or action films aren't their thing. At the end of the day it is all subjective.

my favorite film for a good steelbook
i hope i can buy it

 

[Sage the Owl]

I'm hoping someone will do a steelbook for The Day Earth Stood Still (the '51 original of course) too. Already have it on Blu-ray but the cover is absolutely hideous.

I have a DVD steel of the original using the poster artwork, which looks nice. Would'nt give the remake the time of day though.

Back on the subject of FP, love this one so ordered, i've lost track of the number of times i've seen this movie & it never gets old, quality always tells.

Although Forbidden Planet is not a favourite movie, I love this steelbook. I think ES did a great job, embossing, spot gloss, original art, inside art, and a good price, I think anyone expecting to see exclusive steelbooks in the UK for less than £15 now is going to be disappointed.

As for old films. my all time favourite was made in 1946. I wonder if sometime in the 2030s someone will say 'I can't stand movies from the last millennium...'

Forbidden PLanet is a classic film, and the artwork for the BR does look from the time the film was made.

 

[raspor]

look alot like the dvd tin I got, would´ve loved if the made like that, but bigger tin with steelbook inside and maybe a figure of Leslie Nielsen Anne Francis, since the dvd edition had a robot in it

I am glad ES is releasing such a classic scifi movie like Forbidden Planet. They should release other classic like The Adventures of Robbin Hood, The Searchers, The Mark of Zorro

[Ben]

Are there many left?

After the debacle with my first steelbook order from them I'm undecided if I want to pre-order this.

 

[digitalbabe]

Hi all-if you're just catching up, this is for pre-order.

 

[GenPion]

It really is an impressive steelbook for a sci-fi classic. I wish more classic films were put out on Blu-ray in the steelbook form.

+1 , they should put more classic movies in steelbook ( Patton, Searchers, Its a Wonderful Life,Guns of Navarone, Adventure of Robin Hood)

 

[MacLeod]

Well Patton was released as a DVD steelbook.
