After the audio fiasco of Pacific Rim to this sorry excuse for a steelbook- f#ck you warner bros.

 

[thebard]

Warner Brothers knows how to screw Steelbook fans by putting least effort for blockbuster titles:

1. Man of Steel
2. Pacific Rim
3. Hobbit
4. The Dark Knight Rises

That's not true! They pretty much botch the 2nd-tier & catalog titles as well...

- Gatsby
- I Am Legend
- Goodfellas
- Etc.

You need to get the Futurepaks from the Asia region if you want the best for:

The Great Gatsby TW
MOS KOR
Pacific Rim TW

Perfect for people who love to keep them sealed.

How did the US get the same steelbook with gloss finish and some with a lenticular, I imagined the UK version would have had the same gloss finish and lenticular, similar to life of pi. It looks dull, plain and this film deserve better, how can anyone say this is nice to hold and look at, is beyond me. Grey steel with no decent artwork what so ever on it and boring matte finish feels cheap errrrr am so mad right, its getting returned printing amazon returns label immediately, I will get me a glossy steel for this and get a 3d disc later.

It looks cheap and feels cheap and I'm gonna wait for it to drop cheap.

Dont know if Warner Brothers is doing it on purpose but they are forcing me to double dip with producing these lovely lenticular slips lately in their standard range with this and the Pacific Rim and Hobbit just couldn't pass them up while lifting the steels.

Very unreliable, I ordered qiute afew blu-ray black friday deal's last week shipped by all seperate and not one has truned up yet also man of steel steelbook never turned upto today (even though i bought it from HMV first thing) when i spoke to customer service about late prime delivery he then arranged for next day prime at £4.99 (FREE) and guess what it still didn't ship so looking at a wednesday delivery.

Back on topic.... I know the UK steelbook ain't has good has the US glossy one but for the price and 3D included and steelbook I'm happy has can be with this, I just can't wait to watch it again and see what the sound is like on my home cinema.

Ultraviolet Copy
Includes 2 Downloads

Journey to Discovery some parts its just the movie playing
But most of it is a making of documentary with 2-3 windows showing info with interviews and video footage

Note best not to watch Journey to Discovery until you watched the movie itself first or it might spoil your enjoyment if you not seen the movie yet as some parts its just the movie playing

I'm happy with the steelbook
Yes it has 3D logo but not really that bad looking as some making out

Steelbook Its a matt finish but would have looked better if the Superman logo was spot gloss

 

[glennturner21]

mine just arrived today via standard delivery with amazon. like I said yesterday i dont think its the worst steel of the year.

 

[VRob98]

I just can't wait to watch it again and see what the sound is like on my home cinema.

Pretty sure you'll be impressed.
