HOW IS THIS NOT SOLD OUT ALREADY!!!

zavvi sell out they're mediocre crap in hours and this is still available

heres why:

- high price tag at 28gbp
- possible custom charges
- rather unknown movie
- unknown seller
- depressing movie you most likely watch once then never again

...

- depressing movie you most likely watch once then never again

i watched it 3 times, and liked it more and more with each viewing.

it's definitely not for everyone though, like blockbuster popcorn cinema (which i try to avoid where possible). for example, i had high expectations for "gravity" after all the praising everywhere, and think it's the dullest and most boring movie i watched in years.
conclusion: tastes are different, which is a good thing i guess. that means versatility.

 

[hatredhorror]

yes, thats very nice

point was a different one tho.. action blockbusters are more popular than depressing indie movies

 

[zesty]

heres why:

- high price tag at 28gbp

You get what you pay for

- possible custom charges

Worth it

- rather unknown movie

Seriously is this a movie site?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1125849/awards

- unknown seller

maybe, but from the way they have kept the site updated with info and pics and peoples opinions of they're previous releases they have done a lot to keep my confidence in them

- depressing movie you most likely watch once then never again

If you think that why are you even posting in the thread, I think it's a great life affirming movie personally

 

[hatredhorror]

you've asked and I've answered objectively.. personally i think this release looks very good and is certainly worth it if youre liking the movie or great releases in general.. nn this 'If you think that why are you even posting in the thread' rly -.-

i could not have explained it better by myself, zesty.

 

[tristar6]

I know personal tastes are different.
But if i have to take my choice between watching a movie more than 2 times, i will watch the Wrestler for the third time! ( i know the one is a drama the other a science fiction marvel movie :> )

hopefully i get my steels without customs...cant wait for this beauty!

You quoted and I answered objectively

 

[severo]

don't start to fight about this, guys. let's agree to disagree, because like i said before, i think it's a great thing that there's so many movies out there that meet different tastes and preferences.

i for myself am very happy that there's variety in steelbook releases, not just "thor", "iron man", "star trek" and bruce willis all the time.

In terms of showing exactly what we can expect from a release I would say PA has done it better than anyone else. All you get with Zavvi is a thumbnail of the artwork, while PA have given us us the exact paper type used for the slipcover, and the dimensions and material used to make the sticker lol. This steelbook appears to have been made by collectors for collectors. I'm pumped to get my hands on this beauty...matte finish and all. .

 

[djprodikis]

The shipping box even looks amazing!!

 

[goufcustom]

I wish other retails would take care of everything like they did... even the packaging... great job...

 

[Bluprint]

SOUL of KOREA!

Juno Baek has given PLAIN a whole new meaning!

Did they mention anything about a steelbook for Oldboy?
