At least these films are watchable. Plain Archive has the worst selection of any retailer.

Very funny!

I can understand your point of view thinking about mommy, the master, ..., but at least we also got Oldboy and I saw the devil.

1/4 Slip & Lenti secured

Bold statement ( but I actually agree that most of PA releases are boring pretentious shite)

 

[Covcraig]

Lenti secured

I haven't actually joined any group buy or reserved one, I just know i'll get one easily at live time so have no doubts this is already secured

Manta Lab may be pumping them out, but I've never got a scratched steelbook from Nova.

Slow and steady wins the race...

Had loads of scratched steels from nova

And their avengers AOU WEA had loads of issues with that strange markings all over the steel

Guardians WEA had issues with their slips with the credits misprint and cut S on guardians etc

Looks good, Nova say they'll show the slips before PO as well

I don't think the movies Plain Archive publish are really made for you though. How about Iron Man?

The steelbook looks awesome. Now I definitely have to get it.

Wow, the wolf's snout looks awesome with that super glossy finish.
I really need to see the movie before the 18th. But I think even if I don't like it, I have to get that steel.

You'd buy a premium edition steelbook for a film you dont like? I guess some really are made of money then

I'm sure you'll enjoy the film anyway, it's very good

I wouldn't even buy a bare bones steel for a movie I didn't like.

 

[hatredhorror]

will probably go for the full slip.. movie was great and the steelbook is awesome.. had the plain archive full slip it wasnt good enough

Nah, not really, I'm afraid. However there're some designs that are too good pass on even if the film is only mediocre. But I wouldn't buy a steelbook/premium edition for a movie I didn't like at all. It's a fine line, but it's definitely there.

a nice looking steelbook.

As mentioned already big fan of the artwork for this steelbook . . . especially in the way they adapted the two main images from the original Chinese poster for the film and opened them up across the covers . . . with obvious changes to the colouring to get it more "grey":-

Finish looks as it should . . . but maybe a trick missed here?
Would've been nice if the back matched the front even more closely than it does already . . . this time, for a change, complete with framing border and embossed title . . . thus allowing for equally excellent back cover display on a stand.

Other views from the NM site of this classy steelbook . . . with cool effect to LN's eyes :-

When I see that pirate dvd cover it makes me think of 8 below, As above so below...

Ending SPOILER (lol)

Spoiler

No shortage of Liam Neeson films on Blu-ray and probably more steelbooks for his films than for many of his peers . . . with THE GREY probably the best to date . .
.
Needless to say "do not open spoiler" if no interest in films/steelbooks with Liam Neeson prominent . . .
