Interesting. The last big Paramount wave was MetalPak. Did they make the switch?

Cory_Baumann · 05-02-2014, 07:06 PM

Hmmm, interesting. Yeah Im wondering the same thing on the MetalPaks.

I guess paramount got the Memo that the U.S. wants steel

Cory_Baumann · 05-02-2014, 07:10 PM

Their may be some double dipping in this Wave too.

Why so many re-releases? Warner is in control of so many of Paramount's library that you would think they would be releasing titles that have yet to find their way to blu-ray! Its so frustrating that they sit on these titles and keep releasing titles that have been available for years!

I picked up the War of the Worlds metalpak, so I can't buy that again. The only other one from that list that I would consider upgrading would be Saving Private Ryan.

wjasoncul · 05-02-2014, 07:19 PM

Going to have to be some pretty special artwork on these to convince me to double(or triple)-dip on pretty much all of them

Especially since Transformers 2&3 just bottomed out at Zavvi.

wjasoncul · 05-02-2014, 07:22 PM

Why couldn't Paramount introduce more new movies that we haven't seen in steelbook format yet? Someone misread that US Steels memo

The only ones I would get at the Star Trek ones. I have the entire metal pak wave and even though they are SB's no need to double dip.
I might get Saving Private Ryan.

Bruisermoore · 05-02-2014, 07:36 PM

The only one I would think about getting out of those, depending on the art used, is Minority Report.

Paramount kept control of the titles listed in the first post.

War of the Worlds - Got the UK centenary one pass
Transformers I - Got the UK centenary one pass
Transformers II - Got the UK one pass
Transformers III - Got the UK one pass
Star Trek (2009) - Got the UK one pass
Star Trek: Into Darkness - Got the US one pass
Jack Reacher - Got the French one pass
Minority Report - Got the UK one pass
Mission Impossible 4 - Got the UK centenary one pass
Saving Private Ryan - NEED
Top Gun - Got the UK centenary one pass
G.I. Joe Retaliation - Got the US one pass
Godfather - Got the UK trilogy pass
Godfather II - Got the UK one pass
True Grit - NEED

Looks like this wave will be cheap for me.

Depending on art, I see a lot of double dipping in my future.

I might as well stop buying amaray cases & wait for steel/digibooks.

snooloui · 05-02-2014, 07:54 PM

Are these going to have an artwork theme like the Universal Reel Heroes releases?

wjasoncul · 05-02-2014, 07:57 PM

Guido, Do you know which True Grit it will be? John Wayne or Jeff Bridges one?

This is what I do. The only time I buy an amaray is if it is under $10 and something I am pretty sure won't get a steelbook.

It has to be the 2010 version doesn't it as Warner now distribute the original film?

It could be either one but like you I'm thinking it'll be the 2010 version.
