It's always the same story in these kind of threads, people ruining the threads with price complaints and not letting people enjoy the steelbook news.

Yupp, might just get this and then throw away the disc when a better transfer comes along!

Ffloydo, I wasn't talking about you. That's only from this thread:

One of the few Depp movies i actually like but £19.99 for a catalogue title? I dont think so.

Want this but not paying that price for an old title regardless of print run.

would have to be £15 or below for a double dip

pleasant surprise.

the price is outrageous though. the audacity to ask £19.99

I never noticed the price but it's about a tenner too much .

All these 2k so called limited catalogue releases start off at £19.99 to those die hard collectors that must own that steelbook. Once Zavvi profit from them buyers they will see their stock sit in their warehouse gathering dust.

And I'm sure there are posts like that in the other threads for the handful of Zavvi exclusives that were announced yesterday.

What I do when Zavvi announces too many steelbooks is I don't buy them. And I'll get Nikita and Sleepy Hollow when the price drops, because it always does when it's not high-profil titles. It's Zavvi's loss, that's the game they want to play, and until they realize they won't win, they'll keep putting out catalogue releases at £15/17 (not £20 though).

Too bad the price is so high.
Sorry, no buy for me(its very possible i have no embossing or debossing).

Maybe the price going lower.

It would be cool, if they use the postertwork with the headless horseman and the creepy tree(with a glossy finish like Gone Baby gone):

I'm curious to see the artwork, but it's likely gonna be an easy pass for me

That with multi layer em/debossing, and a bit of gloss would be incredible.

Very true, the poster artwork will make an amazing steel if done right.

I think I might be tempted in the same circumstance too

Look forward to seeing this

 

[spookz]

Wow...... I hope they do this justice! Cannot wait. All we need now is Big Fish and I'll be ecstatic!

 

[bluray hunter]

Tired of seeing these old films at 'new release' prices

Absolutely, but sadly not many SC steelbooks are embossed.

Could you write SC a Mail/Facebookmessage, that they use this artwork, embossing, a glossy finish and a higher print run?

is there anymore news on this release as it is just over a week until it's released.

 

[BluSteel2012]

I'm guessing this will be put back a week or two.

I've been waiting to hear news of a steel book for this film for months. Absolutely can't wait, love this film, and looking forward to the steel book!
