Interesting.

I wonder if its the original Karate Kid or the new one. Interested in seeing what the artwork will be for The Fifth Element.

snatch !

rickah88 · 09-17-2014, 10:26 PM

Looking forward to quite a few in this wave!

Das Boot

Bruisermoore · 09-17-2014, 10:40 PM

And here I almost bought the UK Fifth Element steel the other day for $40. I'm glad I didn't, depending on what this art will be I guess.

Lava_Lander · 09-17-2014, 10:51 PM

Damn, if these show up at Best Buy as $11.99 like those Paramount ones the other week...

Icemouth · 09-17-2014, 11:17 PM

I never would have imagined a Kung Fu Hustle steelbook. Yes plz.

henry00x · 09-17-2014, 11:49 PM

curious to see the Superbad steelbook

DarkEco910 · 09-17-2014, 11:50 PM

Been waiting for a good deal on the UK steel for Leon the Professional. Maybe I can get this one instead if the art is good.

Spire · 09-17-2014, 11:52 PM

Interested in Snatch. Would be cool if Snatch and Lock, Stock were in the same wave.

Bruisermoore · 09-17-2014, 11:57 PM

This is a decent lineup the more I look at it. I think, depending on art of course, that I would seriously consider getting all of these:

Fifth Element
Snatch
Superbad
Desperado
District 9 (Just ordered the German one though

)
Dr Strangelove
Karate Kid (only if this is the original

)
Leon the Professional (have the Kimchi, but if these are cheap and I like the art, I may double dip since it's one of my favorite films)
Taxi Driver

morbidcorpse · 09-18-2014, 12:05 AM

District 9, Leon, and Taxi Driver for the win!

jscoggins · 09-18-2014, 12:16 AM

You guys are already planning on buying Steelbooks...that you don't know what they look like?

BuckNaked2k · 09-18-2014, 12:26 AM

Don't count your chickens yet. These may be tough to get stateside as Future Shop doesn't ship outside Canada, and these are limited to 800 per title.

Way to read

Well, he has a point. Future Shop got the Ghostbusters 1 & 2 Steelbook, but we didn't.

But there is a quote in the OP this time bringing up the possibility of a US/BB release with a larger quantity. I don't think there was any word like that for the GB steel.

zerox has been wrong about the US side of his business in the past.

See OP.

Ane he very well could be wrong, but it's still a pretty damn good lead and I don't see anything wrong with people getting excited for the possibility we may get these.

Veronica Mars · 09-18-2014, 12:42 AM

Well, if we get these in the USA and if these steels also drop the 2nd disc, I will have to pass on the one I'd be most interested in...Superbad.

Maybe Stripes.

Also have the Leon from Kimchi, so I can't see the steelbook blowing me away unless it comes with a voucher to spend a weekend with Mathilda (grown-up, of course) in Paris.
