What like the Avatar ones? I picked up the Avatar digipack the other week cos I wanted the 4k extended and I was expecting it to be **** and was still disappointed. I'm actually tempted to put the discs in the steelbook and chuck it. Something I've never considered before.
No, it's twice as wide, like horizontal books.
Avatar digipacks are awesome, maybe UK ones are a bit worse, and thinner, and less shiny, and more squarish, and... but still, I love digipacks.

No. That's a paramount release in the US.
Oh, then there's hope still. I just assumed that's what they decided to change it to, and it would come out worldwide. Someone wrote here there's going to be something 'different and more special' for both Inception and Interstellar, and that's why those arts weren't revealed or updated for so long.

There may be some hope, but that specific release you saw was from paramount in the US. The press statement zavvi sent from wb earlier regarding this mentions the new uk release was made in conjuction with paramount... so it may end up being very similar. Preorders should go live tomorrow.

Mine actually tried to take for just twisters earlier. But I had since reordered this and twisters both from HMV and in 1 order. So I had been sitting here patiently (ha thats a joke) waiting for the both to take payment. Also my Quiet Place only dispatched yesterday from HMV. Which makes it probably the latest pre order I have ever received.

Interesting to see how this one turns out. Not a great amount of detail on the finishes in the pre order production specs compared to other Universal releases.

I see the Warner logo in there too. Was this a co studio funded film?

I believe it was stated the steelbook is glossed. But I’ll believe it when I see it

Depends if it is a Universal finish or a WB finish it would seem... I believe the release is officially under Universal, so I have confidence in them.

Being as both logos are on the spine, If there's anything wrong with it we know who to blame and for all the things right with it we know who to thank haha

Glossed and embossed! Good 'ol Universal. The characters in the bottom left look embossed to me as well, and all the rain looks spot glosses on the slip too. Great news!

was staring at the steelbook so much I missed the spot gloss on the slip, has turned out really nice!
The only thing i don't like is the cow. It looks dumb. I thought that about the US amaray art too. I know it's approved art etc.. is what it is. Otherwise, this is looking like an excellent release.

I always thought the box art should had been 3d lenticular, but that spot gloss rain effects is very nice.

I also thought maybe Nightmare On Elm St would take the crown (before people received it), but this is looking to be the best release of the month!
