I just saw the email and thought it looks nice and I would have been all over this a couple of years back.
I just wish everyone would stop doing the same movies over and over again.
So many good movies getting overlooked.

 

[Noodles]

Hmm tough choice

Think we can all agree on that, which is why Truman Show was such a nice surprise.

Weet already did a stunning premium release for this, although it's obviously blu-ray only, so I'm up for this!

 

[djjez83]

not sure how i feel about this release. this is my fav slipcover for fifth element

[ME#78] The Fifth Element Steelbook will pre-order at 8PM, December 13th, 2024.

 

[jonnybobbytimmy]

Mhh not a fan of the steel tbh
the merged characters looking kinda weird

 

[djjez83]

the choice of colour for the steelbook isn't right for me either

 

[Mr.Pink]

Never picked up a premium for this. Liking that full slip

 

[Lenny Nero]

I love all the art, but this...

Is the best, wish it wasn't being ruined by a lenti!

Steelbook is awesome too, now there'll be 4 best ones - I can't decide which is better:

Spoiler: Photo

Likely Manta's after all, because of the sandy-elementish block color!

I eventually bought it back then, but it's always been the worst, she looks like a mentally challenged prostitute here, I'm sorry...

WeET were responsible for the slips for the old Kimchi release

 

[andreasp19]

Oh Jeeze. IMO I don't think any of these look good.

The OC is just a no-no.
The Full Slip looks lazy and rushed.
DL-A looks like it was made on MS Paint with clipart.
DL-B has the awful floating heads/people vibe with a starry background from a vector site lol
Steelbook itself looks like cut & paste on to brown parcel paper.

Erm... yeah lol

 

[Punker76]

Classic art in DLA is kinda a no brainer, but that FS with PET looks cool ..... Funny thing is though, never really liked the movie.

(Although I have to admit to getting the steel only edition of the last 4k release cos it was so gosh darn nice. And cheap. Was that one EB?)

 

[jonnybobbytimmy]

the choice of colour for the steelbook isn't right for me either

 

[Flloydo]

Hmmmm, nothing is wowing me and I don’t like the steelbook. Which will most likely look better in hand

But the slips. That full slip looks weird. The classic poster on the lenti looks like it’s going to come out poor on lenti and B isn’t too bad I suppose

 

[yeslek]

Lenti's look ok but that steel ... oh dear.

Was always going to be tough to beat the perfection of the KimchiDVD steel from over a decade ago.

Full lenti slip would be nice but think I'll stick to my o-ring lenti

 

[IcannotSTOP]

The FS has a Pirelli calendar vibe
