Cancelled- Loved the film but the steelbook artwork doesn't really wow me, and at that price I'd want it to be something that I NEED to own.
Still- If it's still in stock down the line, if the finished product does look a lot nicer than in the pictures, and if there's a price cut I might bite...

After Zavvi dropped a ball with The Imitaion Game, really worried the quality of print on this one will be abysmal again. So might cancel it and wait for the finished product.

Ditto. Was expecting the price to drop, but thats top end for a non-3D/non-something-special steelbook.

Cancelled.

[Mr Y Fronts]

Well, this has not yet shipped, so i'm expecting this to suddenly show as sold out on Monday as zavvi screw another studiocanal release, this will test my patience.

Been confirmed by Scanavo that this will have a Zero finish and will be embossed, so not glossy.

 

[Punker76]

Silly question - what's a zero finish?

I'm waiting for a price drop on this.

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

Silly question - what's a zero finish?

Officially described as - "Zero varnish is a neutral, low-gloss finish but it maintains high color intensity and brightness. Zero varnish has a high resistance to scratching."

I think its similar to The Raid 2 (Entertainment Store) and Aliens steelbook, you'ld likely confuse it with a Matte finish, but most definitely not Gloss as we know it.

 

[UpsetSmiley]

Silly question - what's a zero finish?

It's a blend between matte and gloss. Take ES's 'The Raid 2' release for example.

Described here.

@Mr Y Fronts beat me to it by a second

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

Looks like this is currently SOLD OUT, but its likely due to it not being in stock to ship as the release date is today 23rd March. Hopefully with '71 shipping today, this may be shipping soon.

 

[Djpaddy]

hopefully gets a price drop after cancelled pre orders!

 

[UUUUGGGGHHHH]

Thank God this site reminded me to cancel. I pre-ordered but that price is way too high.

 

[Flash]

Any news if it's actually coming out?

 

[Scary Hair]

Dont know just relised today is relise day .

Oh U.K Ninjas spend £40 at Morrisons pick the DVD up for £4 heard the add today on Kiss international members its a Radio Station .

 

[Flash]

I heard about that, feel bit silly we ordered the steelbook for like £20, ah well

 

[Punker76]

This is £12 on amaray, am I really ok with spending near double just for the steel?...... Nah. They're taking the biscuit with this one, price will drop like a stone in no time. Cancelled.

 

[Pranko]

Still not even despatched! Zavvi are really annoying me lately!!!

 

[BDDB]

Did anyone notice of the status on their order changed yesterday or today to Awaiting Despatch?

Cause if it changed today then I am optimistic about it shipping soon but if it was yesterday then not so much.
