Czech, Indian or Italian Steels for me simply don't compete when a UK version is available.
Interview with the Vampire was a world wide release, same steel with lovely extras. The Terminator steel will be the exact same steel only with a gorgeous slip and most likely the text will all be in English again, making it a superior package to this.

1) Can not believe so many people plonked down £19.99 for a re-release of a catalog title!

2) I wonder how many copies 1000 Zavvi copies is equivalent to?



Obviously, but that inside art is not 30 years old.

Not the fragmentation effect thats new , I'm sure its when he is at the start the movie eather the club or gunning down the WRONG Sarah Conner . Think that removel of that peice of the move was a MASSIVE mistake . It showed his utter ruthlessness .
 
I get that the Czech release is identical, but Volkswagen make Skoda's and its a pyscological thing that stops so many people buying one of those.

Makes no sense whatsoever but there you have it, a total load of nonsense but zavvi get my money! Don't shoot me please :confused:

If I'm not mistaken, Is that scene not on the Play.com disc I last watched? I remember that scene very vividly. Surely it's not from VHS days?

Something is screaming at me that it either like @psychoscot said the night club . OR he bursts dowh the door and guns her down as she is moving away , the bullits hit she begs for her life while crawling and he shoots her . The whole lighth of that sequence was cut on the DVD /Blu Ray .For me thire was an insinuation that children where nearby or in the house , at the Police station nothing was reported about any childrens deaths .

Lol I'm not sure I'm following... the reason I said it was ripping off the Insurgent posters is because of the fragmentation effect. You said maybe the Insurgent designers ripped off The Terminator image (without the fragmentation effect), since The Terminator predates Insurgent. But then it's just an image of Arnie with a gun o_O

You took the words right out of my mouth!!

I remember 3-4 years ago when the Play version was released at £10-12 AND the artwork was MILES better than this recycled image.

I totally agree- I love this movie, but £19.99 just for the fact it's in steelbook form is a bit ridiculous; Zavvi knew they could get away with it though due to the limited quantity available.

I've pre ordered this, but something tells me I might well be cancelling it before release date- Feel I'm being ripped off with this...

Would be nice to know details of the finish and if it has embossing/ debossing etc. Iv ordered but if film arena do a nice set I'd rather get that for a similar price!
 
£19.99 isn't that bad considering that the play edition goes for around £30-40 on eBay. This version should also hold its value dew to the limited print run and great artwork
I payed £18 for my pre-order, stacked it and used VB50 code :thumbs:
 
Certainly not a bad price for a very limited edition steelbook - an iconic design for an iconic film - certainly no worse than the previous edition and in my opinion much better.

I can't see any record of this! I'm fairly sure The Terminator has never been censored.... aside from being hacked to bits on TV. On the TV I do remember that the 'wrong Sarah Connor' bit was cut down, but this hasn't been the case on DVD as far as I'm aware.

EDIT - There's an extended version of the scene here -

Has never been cut, was just never put in.
