Such a nice steelbook ruined by Spanish wording. Too bad as I have held off buying any of his movies on bd waiting for something like this. Hopefully other countries get this.

In Spain they speak Spanish

I guess it is time to give up all hope on someday having a complete "Stanley SteelBrick" made up of the unified black with white lettering styled SBs of all films.

joking, right? this is a Spanish steelbook sold by Amazon Spain, intended for the Spanish market. Why would it not have "wording" aimed at the intended audience?

Sorry, just so used to the French screwing up their steelbooks. Regardless, to me it makes no sense why WB does this sometimes. I get that it is sold by Amazon.es for people in Spain but...

well, I am bugged too when I see titles altered to the foreign translation on Bluray covers, even if they are in my language and sold in my country.
I always prefer to read the original title of the movie on the cover!

Phew, I thought I was the only one. I mean, for example I can understand when it comes from a studio like Concorde where they only distribute in Germany but I don't get why WB does this.

fair enough, the title changes are a hoot to read. I think Furious 7's Japanese title change is my favorite, "Wild Speed: Sky Mission." That I would love to see on a cover, but written in English, ha!

I had to order one of these. I currently own 2 of these 7 films but even for just 5 films, that price is a tremendous deal.

It's a product created for people in Spain.

In Germany the Back To The Future steelbook has the German title on it. For you (and in that case me) that's "ruined", but it makes more sense to do that for those countries instead of writing the English title on it, because well the people in Spain speak Spanish and not English for the most part.

the movie "Le grand bleu" got a steelbook in UK and oh my gosh "The Big Blue" is written on it instead of "Le grand bleu". Same thing. Totally ruined, I guess.

So you either don't watch Korean, Chinese and Japanese movies, or you are able to read Korean, Chinese and Japanese, or I don't know.
