hoping for a great artwork.

I really love that Film. Good old times

 

[Brandbil]

This coming out in EU?

 

[Hereticz]

I love all Verhoeven´s films which I saw, he is such a masterclass. I´m hunting down the UK steel for some time now, so this is certainly a good news.

A 3D version would have been nice for the 20th anniversary, but yeah I'd be interested to see what they do with this steel.

Nice

Don't have this on bluray yet, so I'm definitely down for this!

Yes, I remember buying the digipack trilogy back in the day and the U.K. steelbook quite a bit later and I know which artwork I'd prefer to see on the new steelbook . . .

Getting away from the floating heads there are a couple of other images that compare with the image on the trilogy boxset such as these two (with one being a variant of the digipack artwork).

On the other hand, as a 20th Anniversary edition, maybe time for something fresh and new.

2008 release digipack trilogy and 2013 release Zavvi steelbook artwork:-

Spoiler

I just manage to pick up a reasonably priced Zavvi one on ebay, and now this. Although....will it be region A locked?

I don't have a 4k tv or player, but I'd buy that for a dollar, or $25

Interesting news

 

[TheJoker]

I would totally dig this poster being used. Think it's by a guy called Kilian Eng.

Is it too much to ask for a 3D conversion? LOL

I recently read a forum thread about 2D to 3D conversion equipment and this is one of the films that was tested - and it looked great in 3D apparently.

Well if they've already converted it, they just need to start printing those 3D discs. I'm sure people will gladly pay $35 for a 3 disc (3D/2D/4K) steelbook of this movie.

No I meant that they used a converter that changes the 2D signal to 3D as the disc plays (much like the 2D>3D function on some 3D TVs, but much better). I've been looking into them myself but they're either unavailable (KanexPro CubeUp) or VERY expensive (Blackmagic Teranex).

Sorry if I got your hopes up bud.

Well I wasn't expecting someone from the studio to read my post and add another disc to this, so my hopes weren't really up.
