Ever buy a "bad" movie just because it's a SteelBook™?

[digitalbabe]

So fess up-has there been a time when you've been seduced by the art of the Steelbook, but really didn't like the flick?

Examples? Chime in and have fun!

Mine was the nightmare on elm street remake.. Awful film

I would say that at least 3/4 of my SteelBook collection consists of films I would otherwise not have given a second look - Especially things like the Warner Bros "classics" and Eureka Masters Of Cinema releases

If I were cherry-picking, then my collection would consist mostly of the blockbusters and exclusives. Perhaps not even the exclusives, as I would probably only buy the films that I have already seen, or would actually want to watch

Armageddon. It's horrible but I love watching it.

At the end of the day, it's all about the steel.

10000 bc.. coz i found the crackle lcquer one for 10 euros at a flea market

[Poitvd]

[Genocide]

Yes, District 9 and Ghostbusters.

 

[HighDefSamurai]

Yes, District 9 and Ghostbusters.

District 9 is brilliant

yes I bought a few in which I hate Adjustment Bureau, Taken 2 (Simply because I have the first steelbook) and Hulk.

 

[smileyx9]

Yes,the whole Marvel Collection ( Iron Man etc...) Sold them again

 

[Genocide]

District 9 is brilliant

Maybe, i will never watch it.Not into that kind of movies.Just love the steelbook

twilight

yeah my girlfriend recently persuaded me(forced me) to watch twilight 4.2 in exchange for watching star trek into darkness with me...

IMO the worst deal i have ever made, i should have watched star trek alone

 

[nickforall1987]

i dont buy steelbooks or collectibles because of the movie..if i dont like it though it will be last on my list...but eventually i would get it

My misses likes the Twilights as well. And when I watched some of it the steels I got headed onto ebay lol

That doesn't make sense. How can you decide if it is a "bad" movie without watching it?

 

[himanshu]

no problem i always buy good artwork steelbook

 

[chanfm]

Yes I do buy steelbooks even if it is a crap movie. That is cos I am collecting steelbooks and not necessarily movies. My movie collection does not hv to be in steelbook packaging.

Exactly what I was thinking. As well as it being brilliant.
