The Martian (3D+2D Blu-ray Lenticular SteelBook) (MediaMarkt/Saturn Exclusive) [Germany]
- Thread starter merowinger
- Start date
Another lenti I will consider adding to my collection. See no problem with the title as it is meant to be consumed in Germany. Unlike Asian retailers who know a vast majority of their buyers are English speaking, the major buyers of these lenticular editions are Germans. Why cater to those who do not buy their editions 
It's actually "Save" Mark Whatney..."Rettet" in this instances refers to a byline sentence tense applicable to more than one person. It is not meant to be a continuance of "The Martian".

Cause some actually would buy them if they werent in german? Find it silly with translated titles over all. Its stupid :/
In all fairness, I dont see any other studio / retailer catering to an invisible customer base. Will a UK release be subject to the same standard if a German would like to buy it? Will they provide the release in German / French / Spanish / Portuguese / Italian / Finnish..........or any other language for that matter? That would be unreasonable and no need to do that. Germans should be proud of their language. I for one have been buying them for years though I do not have any German heritage whatsoever. I quite like that I can always tell where my collection came from
Maybe you should follow these threads then:

Yeah they go with the most boring movie poster, which looks like the standard lazy effort, I'll go for a premium release, not sure which one.
Maybe the Lenti improves this a bit (still not impressed) but the German title puts me off this one as well.

I can deal with the German on some steelbooks (I love the Babadook one), but this combination of the art, and the placement of the title (the word "The" sideways- the Mark Watney subtitle....).
It just doesn't work.
What the f..
Seriously? Terminator with the all-over lenticular-magnet was weird already - now this?!
I don't like it to be honest... what a shame i will have to pick it up anyway..
