Cancelled my UK steelie order the other day as I received the UK BD to review last week.

However, I will pick up the Futurepak as it's much nicer ;)
 
Definitely passing. It's a joke that a film like Robocop is getting a matte finish. They also cheaped out on the inside with the black and white. I'll wait for a proper steelbook.
 
i think it looks great, got my order in when it was cheap so definitely keeping it. Dont get why theres so much hate with matte finish. Couple of my favourite steels are matte. Definitely not a deal breaker for me. i also enjoyed the movie so win win

Matte finishes used to be quite nice and smooth but the majority these days are very poor rough streaky finishes. That's why when you compare it to gloss the gloss finish gets so much love.

Also I think peeps have the remastered glossy steelbook so would have been nice if the finish was the same, especially as imo it suits the artwork better than a matte finish does :)
 
Just finished watching this, was well and truly surprised by how I much I enjoyed it. Ofcourse it's not even a patch on the original but if he'd wore that kick ass silver suit a bit more with the original theme playing over and over it might not be far off...as for the steel I've seen better but I might just be tempted....
 
Anyone in the US getting this or are you getting the BB exclusive Futurepak?

The BB futurepak for sure. I'll still get a steelbook as well though not this version. Asian most likely or German (FSK sticker). A decision will then be made once both are in hand. Did the same with 2 Guns. Preferred the futurepak in that case

I have this one on order but I don't really need it. The only thing keeping me to my order is the price. I think I have it preordered for 13 or 14 shipped.

I still have it PO, but the price for the Futurepak is tempting:D

To cancel or Not to cancel......that is the question.

The stark difference between the 2 releases is what I find quite intriguing. Futurepak vs Steelbook. Black artwork vs white artwork.

The good thing is that all the steels look the same and should be easy to acquire even after release

Nice Steelbook this, real pity about the movie, was not expecting it to be good as the original but was expecting better, think I'll skip this one.
 
I was really surprised by the remake... I quite enjoyed it. Then again, I was expecting it to be awful, so maybe that helped. I found it to be a lot of fun, if nothing else. It's not a patch on the original RoboCop, obviously. Will be keeping my order anyway. :D
