Already paid a deposit on this hoping the art would change... I really hope it does cos the Czech / kimchi (etc etc) art is much more my cup of tea...

 

[hellboydce1]

looks like we are being stung with the release of this a la LOTR extended editions as Fox have said they will be releasing a directors cut of the film next year with all of the Rogue parts reinstated

Really?!

Wow so this version is essentially pointless if the next version hopefully has both cuts of the movie

 

[Shadow of Light]

The question is, will the director's cut be in a steelbook or will they just release it as a regular amaray?

 

[Robsonmonkey]

Do you think someone else like Zavvi, ES or Amazon for example will do another Steelbook for the directors cut next year. I know Transformers 4 has two steelbooks coming out in the UK alone.

Would love it if it included Rouge on the front along with the Professor, Magneto, Shadowcat, Wolverine, Iceman and Storm while the back has young Charles, Erik, Beast, Wolverine, Mystique, Trask and Quicksilver (despite me not liking him I suppose you have to even them out)

not too bothered about a cut with all the rogue scenes in,rogue is probably my least favourite character

Anna Paquin tho...

 

[charleybusko]

I'm still going to get this steel, hopefully if they decide to release a director's cut with additional scenes, there'll be a different artwork steel for it (perhaps a Zavvi exclusive)

 

[ben6212]

Anna Paquin tho...

meh

 

[Shadow of Light]

I still think the one from amazon.fr is the one to get. The title looks like is in English, has the Trask logo on it with the 50th anniversary symbol, and it costs less for me to get when combined with the Transformers Age of Extinction Steelbook.

Just my 2 cents worth. Oh wait, we don't have pennies anymore. My 5 cents worth

Apparently the Rogue cut includes other characters and more extra's as well.

[Blu-devil]

I'm all about the packaging. I will simply replace the discs, should the extended cut not come in a Steelbook.
I like this art, I'm not overly keen on the Asiatic artwork. Let's hope that it is glossy.

 

[Noodles]

Well I enjoyed the film as it currently is, so I'll definitely be picking this up!

 

[luke98]

It would be cool art if it was a futurepak maybe a button to turn his eyes off and on, or glow in the dark

 

[Menouthis]

Bleh. I like the lack of Rogue in the theatrical cut. It doesn't make sense for them to fetch Rogue while everything else already pear-shaped. Plus, I like Bobby and Kitty's chemistry better.

 

[nekromantik]

Hate double dips. Might cancel steel and get standard amray.

Actually it makes more sense

Spoiler

<SPOILERS>

Kitty has been stabbed by Wolverine, she is loosing a lot of blood and is struggling to hold onto Wolverines mind never mind her life. Since they realise Kitty won't be able to hold on forever and that Wolverine needs more time they decide to find Rouge so she can absorb Kitty's power and continue to keep Wolverines mind in the past to finish his mission. That's much better then Kitty holding on for that long as she's loosing all that blood while keeping Wolverines mind at bay, a hard job by the looks of it. The pain of being stabbed would be a huge distraction for something which takes concentration for how far she is sending his mind back.

I'm surprised Kitty was able to hold on to be honest, it happens half way through the film so it makes more sense that the Professor and co in the present try to find a solution to give Wolverine more time. Rouge taking over is a perfect solution to that problem. I mean they know for a fact that Rouge absorbing Kitty's power will kill her but in the end she is dying anyway and if Rouge helps Wolverine in changing the past then Kitty will be alive since none of that will of happened.

It's one of the things that bugged me about the film, that and the fact they shoe horned Quicksilver into the plot just because Joss Whedon announced Quicksilver was going to be in Age of Ultron. The young Juggernaut scene which apprently would of seen him break into the Pentagon to bust Magneto out makes much more sense especially when Wolverine says "I know a guy...he'd be a young man now". I think it makes more sense for that young man to be Juggernaut, a character we've seen before and step-brother to Charles then a character we've never seen OR heard about before. I feel like that that line was for Juggernaut, not Quicksilver.

I seem to remember, at the time i pre ordered, them asking my name. Maybe your name will be on their system? Good luck [emoji106]

 

[mumbles]

Your name is on the system. When you go to collect the steel will have your name attached to it .
