Tbh, they are on a crash course. At this rate collectors will become very selective and/or will stop buying altogether. Many used to buy from FA because they were the cheaper alternative, but not anymore. We'll see how this plays out.
I agree - they're reaching overkill, and too many - far too many actually, indifferent titles, especially if you add in the Black Barons stuff (as you should, it is just FA via the back door). I've already backed away from Michael Bay's political-muscle-twitching 13 hours, The Expendables with the inexplicable and unforgivable artwork describing the different editions as Expendables 1 and 2 respectively - yet containing the bargain-basement and pretty crummy Czech 1&2 steel (yet listen to Jan talking it up, it's golddust; sorry Jan, it's not mate), and I really don't think the new, not-so-Magnificent Seven is worth spending £35 quid on.
Add the fact that there hasn't been a Black Barons worth the coin and we're going nowhere fast - even the Fast & Furious Box Set is now redundant as we're closing in on No.8 - unless they leave space or add No 8 etc.
I think they really need to reassess.
To be fair, it is endemic with all of them.
Far too many variants on a theme.
Box sets that have just one film. In the good old days box sets of three had three different films - as it should be! Not doing every title to death with myriad editions over and over - FAC, Kimchi, BluFans, Nova, Manta . . . . ad bloody infinitum !!
FGS,give us a break. There are millions of films out there worthy of premuim steelbook treatment, yet they go ignored.
More thought on pleasing film fans rather than coining it would be nice.
There, rant over
