I wonder why they decided to limit this release that much :confused:
I know a lot of people that think the film is terrible (I really like it personally), it's possible the number is small because they didn't know if it'd be popular or not.

They may also be sharing the steelbook print run with another country too, which is another reason it could be small.
 
I don't think FA have limited this release. I also don't think they can increase the print run. Like Interview With The Vampire I think FA have been allocated this small amount as part of a batch selling worldwide IE Zavvi. FA are just adding to the package with a slip and extra's to make it better.

"But I could be wrong" :)
 
This is gonna be epic, I feel so lucky I got in the group buy! Literally I just refreshed the page at the right time between playing football manager and watching Silicon Valley and boom there it was!

The steelbook looks good it will be the exact same as the one from Zavvi the only difference will be Filmarena will have a full slip and whatever other contents artcards I assume and be numbered

The inside artwork looks fantastic

This was a favourite film of my ex girlfriend I myself though it was average film but I do like the steelbook it looks good
 
i really really seriously hope FA is not going the way of titleless slips. i noticed mockingjay had no title on thd front of the slip and im really disappointed by that.... especially for a film that is just one among several in a series like hunger games. it shouldn't be guessing game what movie you are looking at.

the title of the movie needs to be on the front cover of the slip.

This movie is so huge as I see no Problem that they decided to refrain from putting the title in front or back of the fullslip and only on the side. This is not something they do for all releases. Most of their releases do have the title in front of the fullslip, but they do not have to do the ''same thing'' all the time in the fullslip design as it becomes a pattern and boring and they can't express their creativity. If they feel that the artwork front and back actually looks nicer without the title as they do on some releases, I see no problem as they give us freshness. I believe as long as they have the title on the side of the slip it is fine enough, and for the releases that they find works well with their design to have the title in front of slip it is really nice either way(they do it both ways). Title is also on the back numbering back of full slip and inside on many of the bonus stuff and the steel...there is enough place where the title is, so if they design and want something slick and clean I see no problem, the title will be on other releases that will work with their choice in design artwork.
 
Good news guys,
I managed to organize more copies of Elektra from FilmArena exclusively for this HDN group buy.
So even members on reserve list will get chance to get their copies.
Group buy is staying closed. Hope this will make some of you happy :) :) :)
Our hero!!!! :D

nah man i totally disagree. that slip artwork looks great. i LOVE jennifer garner. what a babe, right?

but without the title it looks completely unfinished. personally i am absolutely in shock at how any studio would EVER approve artwork without the title of their movie. the title is part of the brand.

i will wait to see it in hand to decide but i am not confident i will like it if it has no title. just hopeful.

sorry I was confused I thought you were talking about HG3 but never the less this is how film arena collection works, this is not new, they design their collection as they see fit which pleases me I have not been disappointed with however they decided to present the design of their stunning Full Slip Artworks so far. It will be a recurring situation for releases to have at times the Title in front of the Slip and other times it will not. So I'd say be hopeful if you wish but don't be disappointed if it doesn't as this will be a recurring Artwork choice for the FullSlip to be at times title-less.

I already game them my feedback by emailing them telling them that new titles would be preferable/more exciting, even though it is nice to have some back catalogue, I don't think they excite us as much as the new releases... for me all the excitement is mainly focused towards the new releases
