More money saved. Design looking good but no interest in owning this movie.

 

[fleurgasm]

SOLD OUT!

Nahhh jk, this never will. Not a great film imo.

 

[Flloydo]

The price is just terrible too.

 

[Jnavotheman]

[GoDo]

Easy pass, especially at that price

 

[serjitank]

Bad art
Awful price
Meh movie

 

[Kris Hollands]

Not seen this and after reading the comments I certainly won't be preordering this one, especially at that price!

 

[steellogic]

Easy pass!

 

[Aw 83]

Did not enjoy this movie and for that price it's totally not worth it...

 

[AlienKing]

Anybody know the release date for this?

 

[Aniv]

Pre-Ordered, hope the art depicted is not final though. Not a fan of those graphics around Mark. Looks super retro in bad way.

well i for 1 can't believe they are asking £24.99 for a 1 disc film that is a joke!

anyway just looked at listing seems different art on page

Regarding the price, didn't Pain & Gain sell out in a couple of hours and that was only a 1 disc film and it was only a quid cheaper. I know the print run was slightly less, I think this is collector's changing there spending habits and getting wise to zavvi's tactics knowing that it I'll be a tenner in a couple of months even with a low print run.

 

[SteelbookGenius666]

Now sold out (for now)...

what absolute rubbish its just zavvi getting bloody greedy seeing how many idiots will buy it at that price and whats left over they have no choice to chuck in the bargain bin at the end but prob find they are making better profit or same worse case for them. people need to vote with there feet!

otherwise this will become the norm only goto look at all the xmen releases overpriced 1 disc releases and have you/me got the constant funds to keep up?
i know haven't and end up with a 2 tear system people with more money than sense and the other will be people having to hang on for months for what is left over that others don't want.

question becomes how is that good for steelbook collectors?
answer it isn't and becomes the slippery slop of sh*t for us all!
It's a shame some people haven't got balls!

Absolute rubbish? My statement was not rubbish at all... I agree with everything in your statement, I sadly fall into the tier where I have to rely on leftovers that people don't want and therefore cannot and will not be buying this release, my point being that at the time I posted my 'absolute rubbish' post it had failed to sell out like many of Zavvi's release's because it had been vastly overpriced and would end up in some sale, and I had hoped that collector's had not bitten at that price, I don't think this is sold out at all, I think Zavvi have listed this as sold out to create more buzz and give the illusion that it is/will be sought after.

 

[Basil]

sorry the absolute rubbish was aimed at the fact of 'collector's changing there spending habits' i don't think this is the case. just zavvi trying it on in more and unusual marketing (robbing ways) and i don't think this should be the case of the haves and have not's if you see what i'm saying.

sort reminds me of george orwells animal farm where some animals are more equal than others and i disagree with the whole concept.
