I love the look of this stickerbook. Another thing I like is the original blu banner.

seems a strange turn for france, considering both ROTPOTA and Xmen were both better (IMO) than the UK prints, now the UK Drive is the one to get...guess thems,there the breaks...
I think it does look alittle lack luster, even if it wasnt a stickerbook.

 

[MakeMeHappy]

Well..., it's a stickerbook but the cover artwork is very nice in my opinion. I like it much more then the artwork from the UK one.

 

[Leshita]

Still disappointed by the change in the cover. If the Steelbook was actually like the original render shown with white printed on then it would have definitely been one of my favourite Blu-ray Steelbook designs.

I swear that the third picture makes it look like there is a white background on the bottom half especially, giving it a more printed look than the other 2 pics. Makes you wonder what could have been.

 

[PacMan3000]

I still need to see this movie. Heard Albert Brooks is kind of hardcore in it.

 

[Wreck]

CONFIRMED! - This is a STEELBOOK REGULAR - Not a stickerbook.


But it sure looks like it with those pics lol.

Great news wreck. Now there's going to be an influx of orders again. I wonder if that might free up the hmv steel for ordering again. I wonder are the pictures just not good or do they give the illusion of stickers.

I was told that the pics werent good and the studio should have asked for help in that regard.

It has that shine tho that makes you think stickerbook. I think what it probably is. Is like how that Salt steelbook was. that high gloss. I'm guessing that the reflective shine is using that print technique. Should make for a very nice steelbook.

Looking at them again, I wonder if it is due to the white background and possibly use of a flash. Very nice matte finish. I swear you can see the white on the bottom half of the third pic.

-I'm glad I made that trade now.

That's good news! Those pictures are deceiving.

 

[DK06CTR]

Im still not convinced myself, that front artwork doesent line up on all 4 sides so can only be sticker. But we shall c, if thats what they say we will just have to see.

 

[Noodles]

Thanks for the confirmation, Wreck! It's still a shame about the printed info on the back though.

I swear you can see the white on the bottom half of the third pic.

That's probably just because it's reflecting the white from the desk it's standing on. In the first picture you can see the border is metallic/silver. Although, as already mentioned... the images are very deceiving, so god knows lol.

I'm thinking its not a white background, and that its regular steelbook metal. I think the stock art was early mock. If you notice the spine is totally different from the 2 pics.

Scanavo offers many ways to promote a steelbook in regards to art. Many of you have seen the videos etc. they make. There is a lot of speculation because the studio I presume just decided to post these pics instead of taking some of the normal routes of advertising.

My contacts have never been wrong, so lets hope I keep my 100% success rate.

looks like Wild Side is putting this out, that means forced French Subs if you are watching the film in English.

 

[blu-steel]

If you look at this photo, in the reflection from the camera flash, you can see that the material looks kind of like plastic and not metal. Speculative, but something I noticed.

You called it!!!

 

[DK06CTR]

that aint printed, sure of it!

 

[Che]

that aint printed, sure of it!
