This is the Canadian steelbook of the first Blade movie.....

Japanese:

Japanese is much better IMO in that his elbow is not as cropped off at the front and the movie itself is a better edition than the Canadian one.

There is no UK Steelbook for the first Blade movie. Only these Japanese and Canadian editions.
Which is a bit silly that they released parts 2 and 3 in steelbook in the UK but not the first.....
Yes, there are pros and cons between the two.
I like the spot glossed front cover of the Canadian one compared to the Japanese one but the image is badly cropped.
Although both are matte, the finish on the Japanese one is much superior all round than the Canadian one. With that Canadian Blade it was nearly impossible to find a copy that didn't have paint chips or was dented....
They have not released any yet. Date push back antill the new year.
That is just for parts 2 and 3 though.
There are no plans for a UK Steelbook of the first Blade movie yet though
Just be aware that Japanese steelbook is plain matte finish whereas Canadian steelbook has very nice spot gloss on Blade.
If the film itself is important to you...
The Japanese has the following Special Features:
- Extras:
"La Magra" featurette (14:08)
"Designing Blade" featurette (22:31)
"Origins of Blade: A Look at Dark Comics" featurette (12:10)
"The Blood Tide" featurette (20:02)
Theatrical Trailer (2:09)
- Audio Commentary with actor/producer Wesley Snipes, actor Steven Dorff, screenwriter David S. Goyer, producer Peter Frankfurt, production designer Kirk M. Petruccelli, and cinematographer Theo van de Sande
The Canadian disc is Vanilla. None of these features are on it.
Japanese also has 6.1 DTS-HD MA whereas the Canadian has 5.1
