Universal Steelbooks-June 25th

[mattyl149]

I didn't get a reply to my first e-mail from Barnes & Noble last week, or it got lost in my inbox, so I sent them another message the other day, to organise replacements for Hot Fuzz, Hellboy 2 and The Mummy

If I realised I was going to have so much hassle using B&N, then I wouldn't have bothered

Scott pilgrim i had to hunt down but got what i wanted. Was surprised most bb took down the end caps these r normally sitting on.

No they are the same exact size??? It's just the perspective of the picture you moron

[xl883n]

I don't think so. Same size as other regular steelies

Based on your trolling behavior in this thread, it actually was.

Surprisingly saw these at F.Y.E. yesterday.

Did these steelbooks beat you up and take your lunch money or something?

Well that would certainly explain a lot.

If you have a membership to Costco check that. I found a shit load of them for 11.99. I picked up 2 copies of 300, then 1 of Scarface, Scott Pilgram, Hulk, and a couple other for the wife I forgot about. Was really hoping I ran into The Big Lewboski. Love that movie

these designs are ugly. will definitely not be buying. only for collectors or people who don't have the movies yet.

[Buscemi]

These are on Amazon (or at least were) for $11.99 each. I took advantage and got Shaun of the Dead, Paul and Scarface. The comic book-styled design is actually perfect for the former two, seeing how Pegg and Frost embrace genre fare.

[resevil239]

I just found out about these a month or so ago. Picked up a copy of Shaun of the dead since its my favorite comedy and by far my fav of all of this line of steelbook films. I'm a bit disappointed at the lack of a blu blu ray banner at the top on the front, sides, and back though. I also don't like that it feels much more plasticy than my steelbook of Black ops 2 and my Live free or die hard DVD.

I'm actually considering picking up Scott pilgrim again just for the Steelbook, despite already owning a bluray of it, since that's a favorite as well. I also want hot fuzz (more because I LOVE Pegg and wright than the movie itself, which I thought was ok), Scarface, pitch black (and MAYBE Chronicles), the big lebowski, and hellboy 2 (why no copy of 1 as well??)

Anyone know how long these types of editions tend to be available before all the prices skyrocket as they run out of copies? I can't really afford many of these right now, so it might be as much as 6 months to a year before I can get them (because these aren't the only blurays I plan to purchase).

1) not really
2) of course they are only for collectors. The whole point of making copies on steelbook or in those book type cases when a flick is already released on blu is 90% of the time for collectors. Frankly, I'm surprised there are even non-collectors on this forum, or at least said non-collectors actually posting.

damn it! sorry about the double post. I only really frequent one forum and it has a thing that auto merges if you post again within a certain amount of time. I always forget most don't have that.
