I'm definitely getting this. Support new companies.

That's like saying I should buy all the Pop Art Steelbooks and Reel Heroes steelbooks just to support steelbooks.
Nope.
I vote with my dollars. And this one is not worthy.

I can feel myself caving already, I have a tendency to regret missing out...

Don't cave buddy. Keep telling yourself...I have enough Terminators

To all of you (minus those who don't own a single Terminator steelbook, so no one) I say : you're weak.

If no one had signed up, it would have sent a message, then maybe the Black Barons (what a stupid name btw) would have reconsidered their policy of picking up unsold steelbooks, charging an extra premium price (800 CZK: 200 CZK more expensive than the more complete FAC edition a year ago ) for a shoddy slipbox (Arnie's been photoshopped a lot in the past but this? Doesn't feel like the film at all! ) w/ the same old WWA steelbook.

Oh but wait they have "collector cards" and a sticker, holy moly that changes everything . If you missed the FAC edition, and then the HDZeta edition, and the 3 different steelbooks this film got over the past 3 years in countless countries, then I get it, but it's unlikely.

By the looks of this thread I felt like about 5 out of 100 people liked it, but the GB is filling up so kudos, can't wait for Black Baron #2, whether it is John Wick, Commando or Looper.

I don't understand why people are ordering this because they missed out on FAC or HDZETA T1 release.
The answer is to hunt down the superior release. Not just buy this trash as a consolation prize.
Hell if you want a great T1 steelbook then just get the play.com version which is relatively cheap these days and is still a fantastic looking steelbook.
And by the way if you want the artcards my version of T1 remastered US amaray came with those artcards.
Don't buy this blatant cash grab by these guys peddling an inferior product.

Harsh but fair.

plus what signal does this send to people thinking of setting up new company :

IMO NEXT ONE :

-> steelbook collectors are stupid.
-> release once again for the millionth time terminators and other ahnold sh.t
-> steelbook collectors are stupid (yes again)
-> steelbook collectors are willing to spend billions of dollars on the same movie, if it has a bit different slipcover.
-> steelbook collectors ARE stupid
-> steelbook collectors ARE VERY STUPID.
-> in the end steelbook collector end up selling his/her 'crow jelws' cheaply when giving up the game (read : realising that : steelbook collectors ARE VERY STUPID.)

Ditto:

I vote with my Pounds £ - and it is a resounding "No" vote!!

Crikey we had more than enough Terminators when FA waded in - they HDz played the real overkill card - even if it was WEA . NO No NOoooo!!!!

Besides, it is NOT a new company - it is Film Arena

Can't somebody out there do something original?!!

Classic quality films worthy of the full traditional FAC treatment would be more than nice. A nice Hitchcock line, Powell and Pressberger . . . .

 

[JCC]

Wow 913 czk! And it'll pop up on eBay for twice as much. There's a sucker born every minute, it's true.

 

[lgans316]

Feel bad for Karel who will be doing a GB of this pointless release.
