Lovely - likely I won't catch this at cinema as we're midst of moving home but loved the first movie and liked the HMV steel also. Despite the lack of inside art, it felt quality, and I loved the minimal design. The fact that this one looks like it will match is a bonus for the OCD in me

 

[Bluprint]

For a fan of The Hunger Games going from the first film to Catching Fire felt like going from Star Wars: A New Hope to Empire Strikes Back.

Spoiler

It felt like, the Victors were the Jedi, the Capital was the Republic, and beyond that, just like A New Hope introduced you to the characters Empire Strikes Back gave you the depth for you to either love or hate the characters.

Anyway, just my opinion.

But I'm in love with the poster art and whatever edition features it, will be the one I buy!

first one had no inside artwork, probably go with the Futureshop versions if they come out with them

 

[SilverBlade]

Pre-ordered, just incase Futureshop doesn't do a steelbook for Catching Fire

It matches the FS Mockingjay version for the first movie well based on the image.

 

[mllNY]

true, just did the same

At a glance it looks almost identical to the HMV release of the first film.

Very close; so unless HMV are to get a (better) version of their own, at least they will match up.

I thought the first one was hilariously bad and ridiculous in parts, like when

Peeta camouflages himself as a rock

I couldn't stop laughing at that part

Oh God, why do you have to remind me of that horror?

 

[entreri]

LOL. Not true at all. The 1st film was rather bad in that Battle Royale wannabe kind of thing. It also had the shaky camera and awful editing on top of it. At least this one had a great twist at the end and the camera work makes the film watchable.

Oh, side characters are far more likeable too, especially Finnick and Johanna.

Agreed! There was more character development for the supporting cast in this film imo.

And I loved the

ending when you see Katniss' face turn from a mask of despair to one of pure rage :sniper:

I though the 1st installment had some potential but ultimately fell short. This one however I found quite entertaining and though the artwork for this is a complete rehash on the 1st's release in the UK if they make the same I think it would make a nice set. If they make the 3rd completely different I would be dissappointed.

I want the first steely from HMV but ebay wants £22 cheapest!

 

[Shayid]

Will have to watch before buying especially after the first 1

 

[kensingtonite]

Way too similar to the design of the HMV Exclusive of the first film in my opinion. Someone's got to come up with something better than this!

 

[monkeyspinach]

Sorry for the duplicate thread, I will admit I didn't search but spend so much time on here and how I didn't see the original thread I just don't know.
