This X10. Although if it's not i genuinely won't be bothered. I have no interest in owning 2D Steelbooks of 3D movies.

I wish HMV didnt get exclusive steelbook. Unless you live near one its a pain to get a copy. Unless you pay extra for a group buy.

Looks nice.
I've not seen the film yet, but I'm expecting it to be as good as ROTPOTA was.

And I hope it WON'T be 3D.

Yes, but the BB exclusive is a Futurepak not a steelbook.

[masob98]

At least this one will be done right, unlike the steelbook for ROTPOTA (removable j-card, interior artwork).

Same here, I plan on getting the US FP.

I was never a fan of the Metalpaks and even though these are about the same the new Futurepak's that Fox are using seem to be over better quality.

Ewww. I guess I'll be trying to get one of these then since I loved the film.

Are you aware that a steelbook that doesn't include the 3D version of a film when a 3D version is available, instantly becomes less of a collectors item. Considering steelbooks are meant to be a collectors items means you are paying a premium for something that isnt that special. A steelbook should have it all.

So even for people like you that hate 3D you are spending extra for something that is not that special.

Exactly. Just buy the cheapie plastic amaray of you just want to watch the film. A steelbook is intended to be the flagship release of the producing studio, and should contain all available versions. It's ridiculous that you would have to pay less for a release that includes the 3D version. It's why I won't be buying HMV's Spiderman 2 - and any other incomplete package they offer for that matter. Steelbooks are expensive enough as it is.

I think the point for me as I have said many times before is that as a steelbook and 3D collector that at least with a 3D steelbook you still get the 2D for those that arent bothered. The other way round, 3D collectors lose out.
