Glad I didn't pick up the US edition. Will definitely get this instead!

Best Disney film made while Disney was alive in my opinion. Loved seeing it again back in November.

If this came out a few months back I would've definately gone for the steelbook, but I had to get the film back in November because of Saving Mr. Banks. Not sure I'll get this again. Hopefully the price will drop before too long. That's what normally happens when Zavvi's steelbooks don't sell as well as they hoped.

I hope it region free. If it isn't still ok region free player.

I hope that the silver part is done well. I mean there isn't much you can do but still.

oh but there is... all they have to do is gloss it up, and it will be "done well".

but that requires far too much brilliance on Disney's/Zavvi's part to cater to their target audience.

I'll be picking this up, even though it'll be a double-dip. Considering that the movie was released over here as a "50th Anniversary Edition" it was boxed in a standard amaray, not even a slip/sleeve.

This will do nicely instead.

Awesome, will definitely be getting this. Getting quite a lot of pre-orders in for march now.

Same here. I almost grabbed the slip version the other night at Wallyworld but thought to myself hmmm...Zavvi may be doing a SB for this. Here is hoping we get some PotC.

rickah88 · 01-21-2014, 03:57 PM

Very nice! I didn't even think about live action films, as a possibility. Figured they would run through all the animated stuff first. Will definitely be getting this.

@neoz, LOL! I love the "status" in the OP. Let's see how often it gets ignored.

Dr_Bedlo · 01-21-2014, 04:37 PM

Woo! Hoo! I was hoping that a steely would show up! Excellent!

haha it's ok. Well just have to reprogram them and teach them the zavvi ways then.

DrH · 01-21-2014, 05:13 PM

I will wait and see on this as Zavvi/disney,s recent efforts have been less than stellar. It is too expensive I think as well.

MifuneFan · 01-21-2014, 05:22 PM

I don't usually care for silver steelbooks (except the Wall-E one which works for the movie), but this one looks well done

Taikero · 01-21-2014, 06:04 PM

Nice artwork. Still not digging the whole silver thing, and I already picked this up for pretty cheap on release ($15 due to Amazon promotions around that time), but nice to see that it's getting a Steelbook. Definitely a worthy film for one.

My only question is, where's the spoonful of sugar?!

Looks a whole lot like 'silver' to me. Also the UK disc is DTS HR not MA so far as I'm concerned that makes it a definite double dip.

Lew Zealand · 01-21-2014, 07:40 PM

It's a pity this is just the 40th anniversary DVD art re-hashed.

They should've used the title font from the original poster, like the US Blu.

tru blu · 01-22-2014, 11:09 AM

Hadn't purchased the regular release yet. Perfect timing. I like the artwork.
