I'd prefer they did it in keeping with the Rise of the Planet of the Apes steels

 

[Kuzco]

I would have prefered the Burton one

Your at post number 665. Make sure you make two quick posts to avoid the dreaded 666 number.

Looking forward to it. Hope they do steels for the rest of the original films.

Artwork is up...

You are too faster for me

Looks better than Die Hard but matte finish is definitely going to ruin this.

Suhweet, I am on this like white on rice. Amazing precursor for so many concepts in our movies-definitely getting added to my collection-I love the art!

Liking the look of that! Hope the finish doesn't look cheap.

It's good to see something unexpected but I don't like this particular steel. I don't own any of the films and had been delaying on buying the boxset pending this artwork. Decision is now made and boxset it is!

Am not too disappointed, to be honest. I think I prefer only wanting a selection of steelbooks rather than feeling compelled to get them all.

GREAT! (to be read in sarcastic tone)
Open the case and see the big twist at the end without having to put the disc in and play it.

CHANGE THE INNER ARTWORK!!

Apart from that I likey

Had to take a few minutes to let the cover soak in since it's a very different choice from anything I was expecting... but I rather like it. Definitely going to put in an order once this goes live.

The artwork is pretty cool. May have to double dip for the steelbook.

I agree, one of the best endings ever and they've put it on the inside art. You might argue everyone has seen it, not a problem, but still.

Now thats hows to do a steelbook

When's the next anniversary?

Doesn't look like cover art to me. Can't see how this could match any sequel releases. Not a good idea to put the twist at the end of the film in the inner artwork. I wanted to like it and wanted to buy it, but if that's what we get, then I'd rather have some other version, even if I have to wait. Shouldn't be long.

It seems as though they have used the Statue of Liberty on the cover of the VHS and DVD. Duh.

As somebody who hasn't seen the film I am oblivious to the importance of that scene. I wouldn't have known what it was but now you've all pointed it out so kindly I can't unremeber it.

JFC.
