Honestly I think it's pretty lame that we still don't know if these will or won't have inside artwork. The dispatch/charge date is rapidly approaching and still no confirmation either way. Of course these are already printed and ready to go at this point so somebody has to know. I ordered when they were 12.59 so I don't want to cancel unless I know for sure.
 
I'm disappointed in the artwork for this series. It's just a bat logo for all films (apart form Forever). I think it works brilliantly with this 1st film, but Returns should have had the poster artwork with the three faces. Also the text on each steelbook is unnecessary.
 
On thinking of taking the US version I bought back and chancing this one. I wish someone knew something about the artwork.
 
I was gonna get all the original batman movies but they are hard to watch now after seeing the new trilogy so well acted
 
Can't help but wonder if the UK Bat titles might get the embossed/glossy treatment like Argo/The Town if they fall under the Warner 90yrs of film. Wishful thinking. :D

I hope so too with all of them! This particular steel will look very bland if it's just matte finish. The logo needs to be glossy atleast and the text either embossed or debossed.
I wish the front of this was the back cover of the Canadian steelbook with Batman grabbing hold of the joker. That would have been GREAT where as this in my opinion is just ok, it's the same as the amaray version...
 
I am probably within 48-72 hours of cancelling my orders on these Batman steels if we don't get word that there is inside art confirmed.

Glossy and/or embossed would be a nice plus!
 
Yes it will be interesting to see how they turn out. It's a weird one because Warner always give us inside artwork in the UK, but then why would they bother if they didn't in the US?
 
Have cancelled all 4 Pre Nolan batmans to save some cash for now as so many other releases, may re order later once seen pics. Sure price will come down at some point aswell.
 
Yeah I have to say I'm very tempted to cancel these also. I can see them dropping in price and not selling that well. Matte finish on this will look REALLY boring. It's crying out for a glossy cover...
