How long do we have to change our minds in the GB @Collector03601 ?

Ive never seen such a backlash to a FAC title and I'm wondering A) do FAC monitor these threads? And B) will they change the art off the back of negative feedback considering this will probably be a first on lower sales (although I imagine it will still probably sell out)

So I didn't want to cancel my request just yet incase their is time for change


This should of been the full slip, imagine the detail on the ship ....

that would be an awesome fullslip with the ship all textured. I am wondering now why they didn't go for this :rolleyes:

I didn't pay attention to the feedback but only presented that I though the ''magnet lenticular'' as Usual should be free of titles. It's nice as some like titles but when it is overboard, on every piece of Bonus Items and Fullslip, it can be too much. I don't mind titles on Fullslips they always do great Fullslips but what I think is nice is removing the steel part and have that clean look that the magnet lenticular has. and once removed from the steel you can see the steel with Titles... it's nice when it isn't plastered all over everything. For me that would be my constructive criticism I which they would apply. But they will do some other nice ones, on other releases no doubt.

I am not on Facebook as well so can't pass my feedback as well.

haha I was responding as I was reading your message and you mentioned the magnet lenti, we thought the same way, it should have been different.

Those Special Cards they usually include them in a 2nd edition. Usually we have the Booklet and the other edition will have the cards in an envelop, but on some edition that has only has 1 version, they at times include extra bonus items. So they are just Photo cards from the movie, an extra Bonus Item which is always nice.

Now if you want to keep it or not it is really the collector in you that can decide that :thumbs:

I didn't even notice the title on the lenti ! At least it changes colour lol

The John wick one for me was quite dark and no depth. But the Birdman one is decent.
Also I don't like flip flop lentis that change to a completely different image, I find it tacky. I like flip flops that play on the image and this one don't. It's just seperate images

Oh ok just standard cards like that came with John wick and Birdman.
I just meant that I wasn't sure if special meant something else, soemthing different

I love FA's Magnet Lenti with Flip Flop effect, some great they produced ie: Mockingjay pt.1, Kingsman, Looper just to name their best those were spectacular...Especially Looper :drool: ...everybody does 3D lentis, so it is nice to have something different.
 
Will Smith is okay, but why such a huge image on the front?!! I would have even preferred seeing Jeff Goldblum instead, at least it would have been more unique.. What I thought would be an easy decision, became harder.

P.S. -- I still can't get over the additional 999 CZK for a plastic alien ship!
 
Was really impressed when I saw the package it's great! Been waiting to long for a quality edition of this classic scifi movie! Filmarena have done another bang up job and proved once again that they are a force to be reckoned with or at the very least an up and coming contender hitting way above their weight!

GOOD QUESTION.:cautious:
AND
YEAH the ship details could have been awesome:woot::thumbs:
Martin said yesterday night that the artwork for the full slip was not approved yet. They showed the approved artwork this morning (Czech time, meaning only a few hours ago). I really doubt that it is already being manufactured. Maybe it's not to late for them to make a call and change the request?
Comments says that the art was already approved and sign, but still wish a change;)
Last month, Obama issued an executive order forbidding the use of images of the White House for commercial purposes. Especially images that show his ass being blown to bits. Sorry, fans of that image. It ain't going to happen.;)

:writing:I don't know that and that's call SI-FI so that's why i don't care:brb:, without all the fantastic :joy:creation from Hollywood and the film industry Hollywood would not have been called Hollywood the movie capital:photo:, and the big/enormous budget movies would not have existed and we would not have been here discussing any thing:cool::cool::cool:


:thumbs::cool::cool: COOL

My mind keeps going back to what someone already posted : "the steelbook itself is the best part of the package "
Well if that's the case then why get the entire package esp at that price for an old non 3d title. Might as well just get the steelbook.

If that is indeed the confirmed artwork for the lenti and full slip then I am leaning towards cancelling my GB request.
 
I'm in the minority but I like the overall package. I do agree they could've used the ship going through the White House that was a very memorable poster.
