Future Shop has this Sin City A Dame to Kill For on SteelBook

Spoiler

I guess I'll be canceling Zavvi's to ge this one.

 

[Gurrich]

Looks nice - already want to buy. But zavvi pre-order will not cancel

 

[psychoscot]

Yay! A design that fits the movie and the series. And Eva Green is always a plus.

Zavvi really stuffed up bad with their one. Why would they go with a design that doesn't fit the Steel they released for the first movie?

Maybe because they had a ton of complaints!

Zavvis version matches nicely with the original version sold elsewhere!

Its ok looking but Zavvi steelbook of Sin City 2 is lot better in my opinion

Its still good though collectors have a choice and more the better so all can choose the one they want

Future Shop

Zavvi

Cannot believe that some people prefer this artwork to the Zavvi art

Zavvi >>German Lenti>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>FS

Matte finish and rain was a failure with TDKR first release. I hope they make it high quality

Neither can I dude! Just rain effect and a load of writing! Very disappointing indeed. I had high hopes FS might have a full shot of Eva on the front, nice gloss finish etc. This is beyond dreadful, only the inside art is ok and that doesn't make a good steelbook.

 

[StifflersDad]

WTF is that back artwork on FS supposed to be. A pair of lips shooting out spidey webbing??

 

[StifflersDad]

From the OP: "SteelBook is 100% exclusive to Future Shop world wide" . Well all I can say is Thank the stars the rest of the world is spared this atrocity.

I call it "Friday morning half arsed 5min attempt on the way to pub for lunch" lol

 

[blusteel980]

there's nothing wrong with the art work, i don't get the back art but that's minor.

 

[Sounder]

I like the art with the FS... I don't see anything wrong with it... plus... there is no "3D" text on it... which I know most of us are not a fan of.

I just think that Zavvi's is better, more colorful... and I can't find a reason to cancel my Zavvi Preorder to get this one, which would be more expensive for me in the States...

 

[Sigill]

I will be interested to see what this contrast on the colours is, is it the same as Drive mondo with whiter whites. The front artwork looks ok but the back is poor. I like the German lenticular version the best so far.

To each their own.

I love Zavvi's Steelbook for the first movie because it uses Frank Miller's art from the comics which I'm a huge fan. FS's artwork here combines Miller's art with the look of the movie really well, and as I said before fits the tone of the series better.

My problem with Zavvi's design for this one is that it looks really tacky and makes me think more of what they used for their Machete Steelbooks than Sin City. Slapping half-naked Jessica Alba on the cover is just a cheap gimmick t make it sell better imo. It makes more sense for Eva Green to be on the cover since she is the titular dame to kill for.

 

[Aw 83]

I would of preferred Eva green on the front for this steelbook with it being in lenticular...

 

[steelbobawny]

I don't like it. The front image is decent but there's too much text (mentioning Frank Miller three times is unnecessary, the German/Zavvi editions got it right) and it appears that Eva Green only has one leg in this movie. The inside artwork is good apart from the Jessica Alba image which just looks out of place (the Zavvi inside artwork is the same minus Alba and looks great). As for the back...

Now that you mentioned it, yeah can't see her other leg properly, looks like she had a misadventure. At the moment happy to stick with my Zavvi release, some prefer this artwork, it's good to see more choices for steelbooks, wish we had this option with the other movies, oh well.

 

[Prazzers]

I prefer the Future Shop steel, cover is more relatable to the movie.
