This is a nice looking Steelbook. But this movie is truly shite! Anyone expecting a tarantino/rodriguez type movie will be disappointed. If you buy it do yourself a favour and keep it sealed. :hilarious:

That's a shame. Trailer made it look promising :(

This is a ode to the $1 movie karate flicks, the kind with the bad voice over translation and wa-pish sound effects that kids who grew up in the 80s loved. I knew Tarantino only backed this and Roth helped with the screen play so I knew what to expect and was able to enjoy this ol' school my style vs. your style kung fu movie for what it was. :scat:

After the German one was cancelled, this definitely seems like an interesting buy - great artwork but the film doesn't exactly sound brilliant! Will hold out for a price drop before buying, I think...
 
Sweet Lord:drool::drool::drool::drool::drool: Hope this is the permanent artwork!!!

123kid posted in steelbook price drop thread that this is £17.99 at Sainsburys Enterainment.

I've also sent a price match to amazon, but doubt there will.

does anyone know if you preorder with Sainsbury is it same as everywhere else and they take the money once the item been dispatched?

also, what is their postage like? Would be worth paying the extra £2 to get better postage from amazon?

you can see how i mixed the 2 up:p

They would only be doing their signature-move if they were playing themselves or if this was a documentary.

Not every black guy that makes a X with their arms is Xzibit...

Love the artwork but don't think I'll like this movie very much so I'm not sure what I'm gonna do.

Crap apparently. Although it's a homage to those 80's Kung-Fu flicks that were dubbed. So maybe it's intended to be crap who knows? I know Tarantino has put his name to a great deal of similarly bad films, whilst having little to no direct involvement. Shame really but the trailer makes it look interesting, I guess you either love it or hate it? Also, some :boobies::boobies::boobies:are involved by the look of things :D

The pic may also be homage to the new WWE game that I found whilst looking at Fifa 13 on play.com:

Although, I can say with almost complete certainty that it isn't..
