no way im i paying £27 for this , reviews not that good and that price is daylight robbery , it seems zavvi are tacking the p**s abit and if there not overpricing new releases , they are bringing out old films that people aint even interested in , its about time they bring out some classics like back to future , sorry for rant but i wanted to get to 500 posts tonight

I can't see why anyone has ordered this £27 for this crap they are having a laugh it's not exclusive it's not a low print it's a crap film and it's super expensive wake up this is not going to sell out why preorder and make zavvi think people are prepared to pay this price
Needs boycotting imo

 

[mr blue]

can understand the price being slightly higher for a 3D release even though the vast majority won't have any use for the disc but £27 is taking the pi$$, glad i got a Finnish copy sent across a few weeks back for a lot less than that

 

[ChrisIW]

I ordered, but ONLY because I had a 10% off code to bring it down to a slightly more sensible price for a 3D steelbook. Otherwise no chance...

The knee jerk reactions to the pricing is mind boggling. Can't we be a bit more patient and see how things pan out?

I've already had the Nordic steel release...3D + Blu-ray discs and no 3D logo on the front cover and spine for a lot less than Zavvi's opening price...And the UK one is not being released till the end of September.

Point is, for me, it's been sourced cheaper, done better and released way sooner than the UK one.

 

[lgans316]

I am not against the Nordic release but it is getting boring with the premature and prejudiced comments on the current pricing. Remember Pacific Rim, Man of Steel, Wolverine etc. All these dropped few weeks after the street date and became the cheapest amongst all the releases.

I'm with you mate...I think Zavvi should read the feedback on the pricing and consider a lower opening price...27 squid is unbelievably high...And Zavvi gets yet another bashing...

 

[runk0002]

i have the FS version and it's way cheaper, (26.99$ CAD) it is like 14 GBP

 

[lgans316]

FS is 2D only I believe. Aforementioned patience is virtue.

Zavvi usually reduce there prices before pre-order. There's a good chance that the is just a temporary price they put up.

totally agree i wouldnt order this and give zavvi the satisfaction, its pure daylight robbery..

 

[galareta2332]

Ordered with 10% off...3D is important for me in case of Home Entertainment.

 

[karl01]

Such a poor film steelbook worth £16.00 max

 

[travid]

If its a pooor film, its worth nothing.

Buying it just because its a steelbook is just not for me

You're right, two of those comments were mine, sorry . I must admit I was a bit shocked, but it's Warner and has a presumably huge print-run so it will probably drop. I don't think it's worth more than £17.99 IMO.

Every1 has there own opinion , it's a expensive hobby as it is , but with releases coming left , right and center I think every1 who pays for steels with there hard earned cash has got a right to moan , besides I. Would only pay about £18 for this so the chances of coming down £9 is doubtful , it will end up £23-£25 in my opinion

Don't apologise for having it own opinions , it's a forum that's what it's all about , opinions

Why do they keep insisting on those horrible 3D logos? Can't they just put that on a sticker on the plastic instead? -.-

ask warner UK. They want to put 3D on all steelbook and slipcover if 2d+3d combo blu ray...
