Default Priest (HMV Exclusive steelbook)

Just found this one on:

Sounds like a cool movie to me.

Heard horrible things. Off my friend's recent status update on FB:

Priest was a terrible movie. The whole time I was watching it, I was thinking "please god, just kill me now". Atheism irony notwithstanding....
Early pass for me, regardless of artwork.

Why do so many sub-par films get the steelbook treatment. Some of the best steelbooks infact are of movies which are pretty bad. And only a handful of great movies get nice steelbooks

Been saying this for ages and I think Usits probably right.. If it wasnt a steelbook no one would probably buy half the titles that get released in this method.. Looking over my most recent purchases there seems to be even more of an embarrassment of rubbish in pretty boxes just recently. On the plus side one or two nice titles now seem to be being released as well True Grit and even Paul which should help counter having to sit through Green Hornet, Resident Evil, Predators and Expendables and then have the indignity of having them sat on your bookshelves as if you like them lol (I still haven't recovered and will probably need therapy)

The cover art is up and it looks ok (if this is indeed the actual artwork).

What the hell does this have to do with either the steelbook or the movie and since when can guests make a post in the forums.

I watched a few mins of this and I thought It was pretty cool. Never seen anything quite like it before. I think on those grounds its worth a dip.
