The back of this steel might be a deal breaker for me to be honest. I heard the movie was very good, but its really a shame what they decided for the back.

I think I just saw Best Buy's eyes get really big and probably order more Thor 2 steelbooks.

Hopefully not so big to repeat the Scarface release

Hopefully someone is watching and realizes steels sell well in the US. Hopefully that same someone understands that great looking steels will sell better than cheap looking steels

This was a blind buy for me and I finally watched it last night. Intense! And now that I'm used to the steelbook art, I like it much better, both front and back. Captures the suspense of the movie and has a good progression The weakest part of the steelbook design is the inside art, which is just more ocean. I can understand how it was chosen to give a sense of isolation but I'm on the fence about it - maybe one of the panoramic shots of the cargo ship with the Navy ships in the background, or a closeup of the skiffs cutting through the choppy waves. Even a head-to-head closeup of the two captains would have worked better. Also, the printing is low quality. Oh well, maybe they will step up their game for the next one!

It's really not that bad. I'd definitely recommend this. Especially because it's actually a great film as well! And you don't want to miss out on it.
