Hi Ninjas!

*This thread is for nominations only*

Welcome to our 4th annual tradition of the HDN Steelbook of the Year nominuation chat!
Every year, we open a thread so that you can chime in with your own personal picks of what Steelbooks should be included in the VOTING POLL (posted in January 2015), so we all can vote for hidefninja.com's annual tradition of 'Steelbook of the Year'.

In this thread, please list your favorite 3 Steelbooks only , released in 2014 that should be considered for the poll. I will once again tally all of the picks, and rank them by the # of 'nominations' (mentions) they each receive. Only the first 3 you mention will be counted. Please list the Steelbook, the retailer,and the country-be as specific as possible. Feel free to add why you think your 3 choices should be considered, but please do not post more than 3. The top 25 nominated Steelbooks will be included in the poll.

**A list of Steelbook releases can be found here in the 'Upcoming Releases' thread.


After that process is complete, our annual poll will be posted, and you will have the chance to vote for as many choices as you wish-but you can only vote once.

As in previous years, the Steelbook with the most votes will become the community's pick for 'Steelbook of the Year'.

This nominations thread will close 1/10/2015 (all nominations posted until 12:01 mid EST on 1/10/2015), and we will start to vote on 1/15/2015 until 1/31/2015.
Thanks everyone for participating!

Past winners:

2013: Who Framed Roger Rabbit (Zavvi-UK)

2012: The Raid (Play-UK)

2011: Thor (Worldwide)

Hello all, a quick reminder to new members-nominations for the 4th Annual 'Steelbook of the Year'14' close tomorrow 1/10/2015 at 12:01am. Voting for the top nominees will be from 1/15/2015-1/31/2015. This thread has been live since October, and stickied in the main Steelbook forum. I usually unstick as the nominations come to a close (it stays stickied until then, so that it doesn't fall pages and pages into the forum). It also gives new members a chance to share their picks if they're just joining. This thread is for nominations only.

There are many many more I've seen on here throughout the year but I don't own them so I can't comment and I've actually put the guardians steelbook in my list as I actually don't mind it now since owning it.

But my top 3 for 2014 are:

• Ronin 47 (german)
• Jumanji (zavvi)
• The Fox And the Hound (zavvi)

That was hard.
Zavvi have released some lovely disney steelbooks this year and fox and the hound in my top 3 could easily be replaced with beauty and the beast, rescuers, Robin Hood, sleeping beauty or hercules depending on the day and mood I'm in.
 
@Flloydo, great! The top 3 you list will be counted for the actual list to be voted on (see op). Please pick your 3 overall favorites to be sure they are considered. Thanks!
