I have placed an order with amazon

Legend
Big
Vanishing Point
Speed
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
The Day the Earth Stood Still

If Zavvi have an active Discount Code I will order from them if they work out cheaper
I will possibly end up cancelling some if price does not drop more or if my bank balance not healthy enough
Except the 2 below I wont be cancelling
Big
The Day the Earth Stood Still
These 2 are must keep orders


Hopefully also the Artwork will change

I wont be ordering Rocky Horror Picture Show that Artwork is horrendous looking and I could not have it in my collection

Yeah, To Be Condemned

 

[severo]

Could be worse...

Spoiler

maybe just a joke, geek, but definitely still better than the current artwork.
i like some of the other artworks from this wave, though (for example "vanishing point" and "the day the earth...").

I pre ordered it from zavvi yesterday, I did not want to wait and then maybe find it , sold out like Stargate steelbook, however that was more limited then Speed(this one will be 4000, like regular releases?)

Hope my order will arrive in good conditions, have to keep my fingers crossed but all my orders from zavvi from the last months arrived without any damages to the steelbook(s) thank god(Thor 2/Iron Man 3/Tron)

Lets hope that there won't be a different release from US or Asia with a better looking steel , then I will cancel this pre order

 

[Ebbing]

I'm hoping there WILL be a better looking steel from anywhere in the world! There is no way I'm buying this.

i think if the cover stays as it is you definitely won't have to worry about this selling out anytime soon, can't imagine too many people are in a rush to get this beauty - great film, terrible cover

What? Is this out early or something? I didn't think this was due for release til the 12th?!

 

[denizen]

If anyone loves Speed, its me, but not with that steelbook.

It's not out till the 12th but they seem to be shipping this 20th Century fox batch early.

If anyone loves Speed, its me, but not with that steelbook.

Totally agree. I love this movie and would have been tempted to upgrade from my DVD to Blu-ray steelbook, but frankly this is a massive let-down and a waste of an opportunity to do a really special steelbook. Quite literally anything would have been better than this lazy effort

this is cheap even by fox standards

 

[tommyh84]

What a truly awful steelbook

 

[dLux]

Jezzuz, thats one ugly steelbook. Not ever buying...

 

[axldelarge]

this one definitely wins as the worst of the wave.
Keanu looks embarrassed/speechless as well and Sandra Bullock too manages to hide her face.
Facepalm.

 

[Sigill]

This one does look poor, the artwork wasn't great but the matte finish looks really bad.

 

[bigrob]

looking at it now though....

or is that my dirty mind?

 

[dominic]

That paint job , is just terrible!
