i was expecting the pursuit of happiness!

 

[movieknight]

I am in for Das Boot, Karate Kid and possibly Kung Fu Hustle, Leon the Professional and the Fifth Element

 

[nexor]

I've only seen eight of these movies. Never heard of Tommy and Kung Fu Hustle. Any good? I would love to get Leon, The Karate Kid, The Fifth Element, Snatch, Taxi Driver, and Dr Strangelove in steelbooks. Good incentive to get some I don't already own on blu-ray.

 

[stinkofdefeat]

I am in for 5th Element, Desperado, and Karate Kid... the rest are meh. Price/finishing may change my mind on some of them.

 

[dfoles]

The other site is saying Best Buy will probably have these too. @Wreck can you confirm this?

 

[FanOfGaming]

For sure:
Desperado
Snatch
Superbad

Depending On Artwork (if better than previous steels):
Fifth Element
District 9
Taxi Driver
Leon the Professional
Karate Kid (if 2010)

No Thanks:
Das Boot
Dr Strangelove
Karate Kid (if 1984)
Tommy
Kung Fu Hustle

Kung Fu Hustle. Wish it was a new master though, but better than nothing.

 

[Wreck]

@zerox39 do you know if Best Buy will have these?

Bump....

 

[DJ IXS]

the art will be .... very .... different.

Why do I think these will all have a similar theme, like the "Comic Book" wave or the all black Studio Canal "Steelbook Collection" wave...I REALLY hope I'm wrong though.

 

[Drum18]

@zerox39 do you know if Best Buy will have these?

See post #4:

USA Best Buy is likely to get the same wave exclusive. They will have larger quantities and their own sticker on it. I've asked for a Future Shop sticker on our units too

Bump....

This is Sony, so at 99.9% yes, it should be free. BUT we won't know for sure until release...

 

[BookofSteel]

please not another ugly similar theme like the iconic art, comic book or studiocanal steelbook collection wave

 

[RekLess]

the art will be .... very .... different.

Way to kill the vibe. I can only assume that you mean different like that super ugly Iconic Art crap that Universal is putting out. That's disappointing since half of the titles in this Sony wave are ones that I would definitely buy...but not if the art is throw-away junk.
