Italian steelbook usually don't get italian title (speaking of WB, Paramount, Universal and Sony releases; local distributors only use italian titles), but they NEVER get 3D editions, never got.
French steelbooks very often are full optional (with both 3D and 4K), but with french title as well (The meg becomes En eaux troubles ; same for the german ones (thik about The meg: german exclusive steelbooks get Meg, that's the german title, while The meg is the english title; or Fantastic beasts etc. becoming Phantastiche Tierwesen etc.)

I wanted 3D and a steelbook, so my choices were french release or German release.

If you don't mind french and german titles

Good heavens... The back art is upside down (plus no 3D and 4k tax = No buy)

Probably cheaper to upgrade to 4K and wiggle my eyes a lot for that 3d effect

I think you mean cheaper to downgrade to 4K.

You’re welcome.

Stopped buying anymore annoying Harry Potter related crap

Just received an email update from HMV that the release date is 18th March (I was expecting it to be a cancellation)

As they're getting an update I wonder if that is any indication to their situation

 

[TobJoDaJes]

Yes, I just got the same email.
I think the first steelbook due from HMV since their problems is Venom 4K at the beginning of next month. Will have to see if that turns up, no one else is listing it yet.

unfortunately its does not mean a thing unless hmv can pay warner for the stock bear in mind new stock, which studios will risk new stock for a company in administration?

HMV have been saved from administration and are receiving stock again so I'd expect them to retain this release.

Because that came out while they were in administration and had no way of fulfilling orders. Different situation now.

Just received an email from HMV about this Steelbook saying....

Please be advised that although store.hmv.com is currently down for maintenance and development, your pre-order for the above title will still be fulfilled and you’ll receive a dispatch email closer to the release date, to let you know when it’s on its way.

So that's interesting.
