Thanks for the pics. Steelbook looks amazing. BTW it is a steelbook right? Not a stickerbook (Steelbook with artwork stuck on rather than printed on)

Glad you like! It is indeed a Steelbook (ie. gold finish metal case) for the blu-ray. Image is printed, but the quality if premium. You'll have to check it out in HMV stores!

i have big doubts about this one now.
i think it will be a stickerbook or some cheap version of a steelbook.

i will say, and this is almost to be expected (take into account recent uk steelbooks, certainly ones priced lower than the average £17.99-£19.99) it WILL NOT have:
1. inside artwork
2. embossing/debossing
3. removable ratings logos etc (it WILL all be printed)

The text WILL be printed on the back (no data sheet)

everyone who expects anything more than a mediocre release will be on this thread tearing it to pieces the second they get their hands on it.
come on guys, lets not get our hopes up and expect the impossible.
we can hope for the best, but plan for the worst.
this year 3 uk steelbooks have been sub £15;
cars 2 (everyone hating it)
source code (stickerbook. everyone hating it)
and now devils double (they come it threes right. see the trend?)

I don't know what this will end up like, but comparing this to Disney Steelbooks (which always have ratings logos) or Play.com exclusives (which also seem to always have logos) isn't exactly directly on point either.

At £11.99 who can moan? That's good for a normally blu-ray... Besides Drive at £12.99 as well...

Hmmmm. How cool would it be if the entire thing was emobossed. Looks like it will be.

I would die if it turns out to be like you mentioned. I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst.

I agree, if you're worried just don't buy it. I think it looks nothing like a stickerbook, and I don't think where it's advertised as a Steelbook, I don't think it will be lesser quality. I can't wait to vote this the best steel of 2011

Looks great and its a great movie. I'm in for sure

hey guys, I've done some digging and someone asked the below question of the distributor on their facebook page.

Hope this helps.

[Grapey]

Am I the only who keeps looking at this and thinking it's Danny Dyer? Has anyone ever seen him and Dominic Cooper in the same room?

I think any film that isnt worth a second watch isnt worth buying

 

[jimmy]

This movie looks AWESOME.

 

[karl01]

Trailers do have a act of making poor movies look good.
