Gloss, emboss, all that ****. Damn, Zavvi back on that A game!

Love the front that's fairly unique

but the inside, I'm not a big fan of faces dead center

and does the back remind anyone of the Hunger Games

I think the same about the inner art but it's subject to change so here's to hoping.
V for Vendetta came first.

V for Vendetta may have come first but that design came first from HG

We're getting new artwork for a classic film. Gloss finish, embossing and an acceptable price (compared to ES Anchorman 2).

I'm angry that this doesn't come with complimentary chocolates.

Seriously guys, let's appreciate what we're getting rather than complain about what we're not.

Sorry, no... here's the Vendetta DVD with the lenticular cover, released 2006. Hunger Games (movie) came out six years later:

(Even the Hunger Games book didn't come out until two years later.)

People seem to be forgetting about the HP steels. Black and super glossy. I also have six of them that are in near perfect shape without any noticeable defects. Maybe Scanavo loses too much money to get perfection, so they push retailers to not use it as well as using bare metal instead of white paint. I wonder what the explanation for that one is?

I miss Viva's . Amazing finishes that never looked cheap.

Very true. To top it off, the colors were always extremely vivid and the embossing was just amazing. Felt like a better product in hand too, like those heavy steelbooks of the past.

Vivas were built like freakin' tanks. They are nearly impossible to dent (unless you try) and the embossing always looked much better than the embossing on steelbooks. I really miss those things.

I love this movie, but I wish they'd make a steel that is truly fitting for the movie. Sadly, this doesn't do it for me.

I would love something like this with a gloss treatment.

i think this would actually look better with matte, when considering the warm, muted colours being used.

Spot gloss on the mask, knive handles and text.

Agreed, and same here.

It's great,but I cannot think of any real reason why it isn't £14.99 like Beetlejuice and Mars Attacks.

Scrap my original comment, I though were on the Gravity 3D page

I agree 100%, prices should be consistent

 

[snooloui]

I'm pretty sure it will drop to £14.99 aswell.

Do we know if this is going live today or tomorrow with Beetlejuice? All time classic movie. Glad I held off buying the Japanese one a month ago on e-bay. Really love the artwork on this.

Not sure, the release date is later on this so who knows. It's probably best to subscribe to the thread so you don't miss anything.

This is the one I want. For some reason I am not really digging the Beetlejuice Steelbook and Mars Attacks is a film I don't really like.
