Yeah I agree that I'd probably get several of the movies that are listed. I already have the Blu Ray and HD DVD Blade Runner collector sets so what is one more?? Batman is a given, Troy is a great movie too as long as it's the Director's Cut.

 

[Wreck]

Troy is a big BOOOOOOOOOOOO .. obviously this was voted on a lot by people who are not steelbook collectors and dont know its already out.

I wanted Road Warrior (but didnt vote )

 

[digitalbabe]

Wreck, I totally agree on the Troy bit-there were people on Facebook that had absolutely no clue and were writing in movies that had nothing to do with the vote, or Steelbooks, and going totally OT. Why the vote was not done ahead of time, to give more time to be posted in their actual Forum, where Steelbook collectors read news, is beyond me. But water under the bridge now-hopefully AT LEAST they do different art.

Ez-I too have the HD DVD set of Blade Runner-pretty cool suitcase edition,imo.

HMMM amazed no comments

Thanks for the post Dave. I'm temporarily re-opening the discussion thread for the entire wave so we can post the pics here.

I hope Amazon ships them early so I can drool over these lovely steels!

 

[darczap]

I haven't ordered anything from this wave. I may go with Blade Runner, Full Metal Jacket and or Batman, if I decide to order.

I see they put those dreaded blue stickers in the bottom left hand corners. After the staple marks behind those stickers on Wave 2, you'd think someone would have learned their lesson

 

[DK06CTR]

Also to note guys looking at the spec sheets the last samurai still has the same DD5.1 mix and not the TrueHD.

Boy, these are a bland looking bunch of steels. Not one has anything much to talk about. BORING!!!

They might not be as good as Alliance steelbooks that's for sure but overall they're not that bad. I like them

 

[Wreck]

They got no French on the spine, so I like that!

Sadly to say but all Warner Wave 3 have the same indentation under the blue sticker on the bottom left corner.

 

[freedom88]

Anybody else have this indentation under the blue sticker?

I was thinking of getting one, but I haven't yet. I have been reading about other folks that have the same indentation though.

Where exactly? On the front? I didn't notice any on mine

Yeah, right under that sticker that's on the front - bottom left hand side. It happened with my copy of Heat and Batman Begins from the last wave. I couldn't spot it until I opened it, but if you run your fingers where that sticker is, you might feel an indentation. It's pretty easy to fix if you know how to get the inside off.

Yes it is very easy to fix. Remove the front cover and push the dent out with a pen.

You're right! I went back and checked my Batman & FMJ did have a very small indentation in the bottom left hand corner. My other 3 were fine.

It's barely noticebale so I can live with it. It's when you get dents around the edges that ruins a steelbook for me.

 

[jvules]

how common is this problem. i went to 2 futureshops and removed those stickers and found no dents on any of these steelbooks.
