AGREED 100%. Slap a 1/4 slip on these and call it a day. There's no reason they should cover these up with a lenti/full slip. They've actually gone the extra mile on these and personally, I think it's silly to hide them behind a slip.
It would be a massive shame if this didn't get the proper Blufans treatment considering the number of mediocre Steelbooks that are often given fancy packages by the various 'premium' retailers.
Skipped? Or missed it and and trying to feel better about that?
I usually don't get the1/4ths, but...Kevin has confirmed on BD Forum that there will be Lenticular editions forthcoming for both this title and 'MR'.
As one who also 'skipped' the original GBs, in anticipation of a superior edition, I'm rather glad that I did so, since I won't now have to double dip.
Yes I would like to know this too?So there is no chance for a ninja to get this if he is not a member of BD.com, is that correct?
Correct, unless there is GB here for the lentis. (The other forum GB for 1/4 is long since over).So there is no chance for a ninja to get this if he is not a member of BD.com, is that correct?
I usually don't get the1/4ths, but...
I think the detail work on the steelbook itself lends itself well to the 1/4 slip format rather than being hidden in a slipbox.
I will probably get both.
so no one knows if the shipping proccess has started? :/
I did say that. And I am indeed not a big fan of these pictures. I AM however, still a collector. I own steelbooks that I consider excellent even when I am not a fan of the film. Believe me, I wish It was an ornate Blufans edition of Branagh's HENRY V instead. But, I hope the art of the steelbook itself is as nice as it looks in the pictures.The artwork must indeed be superlative for you to double dip on a title which, if I remember correctly, you previously described along the lines of, Shakespeare for the MTV generation.
I'm inclined to agree, however, since both Steelbooks are works of art. I also find Baz Luhrmann's take on the Bard to be highly anachronistic but the greatness of Shakespeare's play transcends the limitations of the film.
