I also have a cineworld unlimited card. Best thing I ever bought!! I'm probably going to see this on Sunday as 3D is no extra cost to me and while the film has it's critics the general consensus is that this film looks absolutely breathtaking on the big screen.

I'll wait for a price drop on the steelbook for sure though.

I'm watching this tonight with my son. If I remember I'll drop my thoughts on it. I'm surprised to see all these steelbooks up from pre-order before they even finish on the big screen.

I've yet to see it, but plan to this weekend. I wanted to pre-order beforehand because I knew it would be sold out before I actually watched the movie. I have a few months to decide if I'm going to keep it or cancel and go with another version.

Looking forward for your reviews guys

I've yet to see this one either, but had to seize the opportunity to own it in case I love the movie. And it's Disney, there aren't many misses...

I haven't had a chance to see the movie yet, but it seems to be in the "Not Bad" category- with many praising the pretty effects. I'll have to wait to see the movie myself before giving my opinion. Regardless, I think this is one of those steels that most people buy because of the awesome artwork #classy

That's odd, it just said it was sold out a few minutes ago but now it's back in stock. Get it while it's available.

Seems that Zavvi are adopting the HMV Ireland approach now

it was in stock yesterday, don't know when it was put up for pre safe but could this have been sold out that fast ?

It went up for sale on Wednesday morning, so it took approx. 60 hours to sell out. And yes, many predicted it would sell out this fast.

It will of course appear again due to the inevitable cancellations (for a range of reasons) closer to release date, but it's unlikely to stay in stock for long. I expect this title to follow a similar sales pattern to Frozen.

I really hate when Zavvi does this sold out, now were back, oops we might have found some laying in the back. Just curious is the general consensus that when a limited to X number Steel sells out it only comes back for cancellations. Or do they keep a limited number back so people will visit the site more often to generate more traffic? I'm the skeptic anyone know for sure or have more than a hunch that when a limited steel is released they sell them all and only cancelations produce more copies at a later date?

Crazy! I just remembered I'd post some feedback after seeing the film last night.

It was much better than expected. Jolie was dark, played the character well and some of the visuals were very impressive. Now, after enjoying the film I thought I'd pre-order and It's sold out. What's going on...

They're just building up the excitement!

Its called 'preorder now, ask questions later after its sold out'!!

People learned that lesson the hard way after FROZEN sold out and went on to command ridiculous money.
