I'm sure you could just wander in and ask. My HMV lot are pretty chill and would probably gimme a load if I said I wanted to sticker up all my exclusive steels.

I think I saw a HMV GB photo and someone had a whole reem of them...

I asked the guy in my local HMV if I could have any stickers for my copies and he told me they don't have the stickers in store they get delivered with/without stickers.

Finally collected my pre-order from HMV today. Damn it looks good!

Why does everybody love these stickers so much? lol

In the style of those Marks and Spencer adverts "It's not just a sticker, it's an HMV sticker."

Finally got round to watching this last night, brilliant film and stunning on blu-ray, I also agree with those who compare the way it was shot to Drive...

 

[BluSteel2012]

I can't see why people keep comparing this to Drive??!! Other than its got a car in it!!!!

I was comparing the highly stylized way it was shot, not the film itself...

 

[BluSteel2012]

I can't see the similarities personally. I think because he drives a car around at night time people automatically think of Drive.

You could say the same about Horns with Daniel Radcliffe. It's shot in a very stylized way but you'd never compare it to Nightcrawler!

That's fair enough, the car aspect is irrelevant for me though, I'm talking more over about the way Dan Gilroy shot LA, and how the camera linger's that couple of second's longer on it's lead performer in both film's, the scene's were Gyllenhall is in his apartment and doesn't say or do much, but still manage's to captivate and intrigue are for me akin to Gosling in Drive. I haven't watched Nightcrawler and thought look at that, he's driving a fast car just like Drive, I'm a little deeper than that when it comes to watching a film...

Watched this last night, really enjoyed it and the Steelbook looks great!

 

[William]

A truly fantastic release!

 

[marcls76]

So what's happened to all the copies? It's no longer available online and HMV have sold out of their very limited stock! It doesn't make sense?

 

[johnestan]

The steel looks amazing! Might be alone, but I didn't like the movie all that much; so I'll skip this one.

Can someone please tell me if there is German audio? Thank you

English only....

I think because both movies take place at night for a big part. Also both main characters are sociopaths

I think it is the combination of a descent steelbook with what is regarded in the main as a great film, I can also tell you that sadly a lot of 'scalpers' have jumped on this, from what I have been told the HMV'S nearest to me were emptied by the day after release, I have also been told that people were buying between 3-7 each from my local store which had an allocation of 35 copies....

Watched it last night and I have to agree that Jake joins the list of robbed at the Oscars, easily his best performance and its a really good movie.
Don't see any similarities with Drive, stlye or story. Birdman and Budapest Hotel were seriously stylised but no familiar traits. If it was that good there would have been a few nom's for it. Actor, Director & screenplay though - very good.
The steelbook itself is nice, I like the understated look and it captures the key elements of the movie.
And for the price, you just can't say no.

I asked the guy in my local HMV if I could have any stickers for my copies and he told me they don't have the stickers in store they get delivered with/without stickers.

I asked in two near me and was told that they do in fact put the stickers on in store (which is why they're often stuck on above the security tape).

Both stores (perhaps coincidentally) gave me a strip of 6 stickers each.
