OMG! UK-3D? WOW
Must buy! and by the looks of the front art with border and paintbrush effect lines down the art, this may be lenticular :D or is this asking too much ;)
 
Looks ok, and like it will have a Lenticular magnet thing again...not really a huge fan of those:(

Me neither DB... they look a bit tacky IMO. I'd prefer a nice glossy finish so that the colours are really vibrant. :D

^^^ 100% agreed. Hate the lenticular magnets. Such a wasted opportunity to give the steelbook some de/embossing instead along with a nice glossy finish or something along those lines.
 
I like the look of it, has the opportunity to look beautiful in real life, and considering I was interested in the film, I'll give this a go. ;)
 
Looks to me like it will have the Lenticular magnet, if you look at the front the picture shows thin lines, unless it's the image itself.

How is this movie supposed to be the next Avatar? are there aliens or anything CG in it?
 
The tiger is probably the best CGI ever put on film - it's quite incredible how real it looks.

But most of the film is actually CGI as nearly the whole thing takes place in surrealistic seascapes. The entire journey part of the movie is a real visual treat.
 
This is one of the sexiest steel mock ups ive seen. I have a feeling and hope it will be just embossed/debossed with a glossy finish. Hope the tiger gets featured on the back art. And they should try to center the title. That would be a great steel for this release IMO. I can live with a lenticular but perfer the latter. Cant see how people dont like this art though.

This looks like a good start for steelbooks in the UK, I quite like lenticular Steelbooks and if this is the case with this release then it will be the first UK lenticular PLUS a nice clean artwork on the back, a change from the German/MM ones with printed back :)

I haven't seen the flick but will definitely be adding it to my collection, however I'm in no rush to preorder this yet as I really think that Taiwan will get this with a kick-A$$ slip added to it, now THAT would be a MUST for me :scat:
