Yes. It's very difficult.

I found pushing up the inside slip from the bottom got me some leeway but then it got stuck. Managed to then gently pull off the PET the rest of the way whilst holding the full slip in the other hand.

It's even worse to get it back on!!! :rofl:
When mine arrives, I better let it stay sealed then, I could not forgive myself if I caused it any damage due to my nails :emb:

My OC arrived yesterday. Lovely box (typical), and DLA. Fullslip is meh, and DLB doesn't particularly impress me - however the rear has a surprising amount of depth for a transitional lenti, and there's no ghosting in the white background on the front, so it turned out better than I expected.

I really didn't like DL-A, the flip effect just looked dorky to me. For those who haven't seen it yet:

I wish Manta would go back to single lenticulars.
 
My DL B should arrive on Friday. But after seeing in hand pics, I’m probably going to get rid of it. I was on the fence for this release.
Not really impressed by the steelbook, nor the slips. OC has the best artwork. But the movie didn’t deserve the investment.
I should have passed.
Will probably get rid of the WWA too (the Fortress edition which is still sealed)… I don’t think I will ever watch this movie again. Watched it two times. That’s enough.

I think B looks the best of the lentis. A isn’t terrible in hand but it’s nothing amazing either and I wish I had B tbh. But I won’t loose any sleep over it
 
Someone needs to beat Gunn with a stick to get him out of the habit of trying to shove as many people as he can into a film.

I mean Zack Snyder did the same thing with Batman v Superman, where you had Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor, Doomsday, Martha Kent, Lois Lane, let alone cameos of Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg.. at least James Gunn never really failed with his movies.

Define failure? Snyder's Superman grossed more and that's before adjusting for inflation. I can live with Wonder Woman and Batman popping up but Lois, Martha Kent and Doomsday are all mainstays for Superman.

Hawkgirl, Guy Gardner, Mister Terrific and Metamorpho??? Nope, nope, nope, now is not the time for an ensemble and I say that as someone who loved what they did with Justice League Unlimited.

Snyder’s Superman and BvS were released when comicbook movies were at their peak, whereas James Gunn’s Superman released during comicbook movie fatigue and after a huge failure called the DCEU, where fans completely lost trust in that universe. And yet it still made good money and delivered a decent Superman movie.
General audiences didn’t really connect with Snyder’s dark approach or his overall lackluster directing. Zack Snyder had good moments in his movies, but let’s not pretend he’s some great director, he never was. Yes, there’s a minority of very vocal fans (Snydertards), but overall his movies aren’t that enjoyable and often lack soul. His recent films only prove my point.
