I'm extremely disappointed in this artwork. That artwork looks like it belongs on Austin Powers, not The Prestige! NOTHING about this movie was psychedelic.

The front cover should have been a picture of the Tesla machine, or a shot of all the top hats in the forest. Something reminiscent of the movie's themes. This cover is arbitrary to the extreme, and I hate it. I'd even prefer the back artwork to be on the front, even though its just an amaray recycle.

This is so frustrating for a steelbook that I've been wishing for since I started collecting, and one of my favorite movies.

My Zavvi pre-orders will be falling off a cliff come September, at this rate. Which is no bad thing. Most of these recent additions are very poor, in either movie choice, artwork or BOTH.
 
We just need insomnia to be released on steelbook and all of Nolan's movies will be in steelbook form.

The one catch is Following, which is released now as a criterion blu ray. However, that is not a studio film so it might not count for some people. For me though, it kinda does since it is a Nolan film. I'd like to get all of Nolan's films in steelbook if possible.

Previously in my wishlist. Now I can upgrade to steel and not double-dip on this highly-rated blind buy.
 
Now my life is complete!! I have been hoping for this one for a long, long time. This will be the perfect capper to all my Christopher Nolan steelbooks.
 
I have realized that some directors are more likely to get the steelbook treatment. Nolan is definitely one of them. Most Spielberg movies were released as steelbooks too (but we still need Lincoln, The Color Purpre, Schindler's list, Catch me and Empire of the Sun, if I remember well)
 
Gotta say I'm not a huge fan of the cover either but alas I've been waiting for a Steelbook before I bought this on bluray so it'll still be a purchase
