I don’t know if I like it, especially after the awesome German release last year….

Don’t like the sepia tone

Nic Cage is so cool, you can't make him much cooler, than by removing his sunglasses!
Gimme two!

Would usually be up for this, but the german 4k steel is literally perfection, so no need to double dip for me this time around.

Same... doesn't really suit the film.

Went to check what German steelbook everyone is mentioning, because I didn't remember it at all. I bought a mediabook, now realizing I don't notice a steel, especially with bland simple old boring artwork as that one was, when there's a mediabook, so yeah, definitely want this steelbook now. And I do like the 'sandy' tone, white's been done too many times already.

This reminds me of those memes

Agreed with most of y'all, the German release will do just fine, can't top that !
Thanks @apsmith21 for the GB

I own the German steelbook, which is fantastic. But I also like this one. I went for it. Thank you @apsmith21.
My only complain is that I think that they made a big mistake in the design because the bloody "lake" should be on the slip, and not on the steel (in such a manner the sunglasses, the blood falling from the sunglasses and the bloody "lake" would go together). The steelbook would look much nicer with the bullets on the bottom remaining after removal of the slip (blending nicer with the suit).

They think of the complete and main picture with the slip on, not without it.

Do we have an overview thread for all the artists that have designed steelbooks (Mondo, Lionsgate, etc.)? I guess we need one.

Really nice artwork but for this movie I am happy with the German release.
