are these region free?

Yep, Warner bros so region free!

Do I smell a GB?
I hope I do!

Love this film and the steel looks nice too... But I'm concerned by the term low quality.. What exactly do people mean by that? Poor prints?

Just buy the Canadian version. If this is anything like the last wave these will be cheap and nasty.

 

[hayemaker]

So if they're bringing all these out again, these will be classed as re-re-releases?

 

[mattyj]

might have to get this if region free

Nah just replenishment of stock ... as most are still in store.

 

[brap88]

I already have all the WB releases from BB. Hopefully they will have the Departed and a few more new ones so I cant take advantage of the sale.

Two words........Go Canadian!!

At least you won't be disappointed.

OK this might be $10, but you get what you pay for

ie: no inside art and paint issues

Chances are this is what you are going to be missing Best Buyers!!

I'd rather have the cheap one for $20 less.

I'd rather have the cheap one for $20 less.

Even with the paint issues?

 

[adrenaline78]

I agree. How many of us will display the steelbook open? None, thats what I thought.

I bet you drive a Kia.

Seriously though, the proper one with inside art is just $14.99 on Amazon ca.

And another 15.00 to ship it, if it arrives with no dents.

15? I pay about about $6 to ship a steel to the UK from Amazon ca.

 

[Ricker]

I take it back it's 11.38 to be exact.

WOW! That's like €11!!!!

I paid way more for mine, way back when!

 

[shooter]

No inside artwork? Thanks, but no.

 

[blu-steel]

For me quality > quantity.

Not everybody can afford to pay top dollar for every steel they want. If you want to sit and stare at the inside of a steelbook, knock yourselves out. You can't see most of it when the disc are placed in it anyways. Every steel I picked out from the last wave was mint.
