What is the best looking blu ray SteelBook™? - Blu-ray Forum

hattersley3 · 10-04-2009, 07:11 PM

Was just wondering what blu ray steelbook people think looks the best, in my opinion the iron man futureshop and sweeney todd uk steelbooks are the best looking.

BLUCanadian · 10-04-2009, 07:15 PM

I agree with the Iron Man... The FS Watchmen is also nice/unique

tiger_qc · 10-04-2009, 07:20 PM

1. John Rambo, I said it a thousand times but the red on the edges of this SB is from another world.

2. Iron Man (Canada), this bad boy got me hooked that's where it all started one year ago. (almost exactly, sept 30th 2008)
3. I am Legend (Germany), I know I listed the 3 most expensive and HTF Steelbooks on earth but I think that top 3 explain it in a certain way. I know they are REALLY limited but they look so hot!

Cheers,
Gui.

i actually like my first the most, the Canadian I Am Legend
especially the rear where they made it look like wow what was it an evacuation order? or was it a pass to get out of the city...

either way its sweet

after seeing some of the pictures of the upcoming disney steelbooks and other futureshop steelbooks coming out soon, looks like theres going to be some competition for nicest looking, transformers 2 steelbook looks like it will be the one to get.

Iron Man futureshop is obviously totally awesome.

I also really dig the embossed ones like Hellboy 2 Germany and Death Race and the IronMan for that matter.

Rambo does look sweet too, just never seen in person.

broc · 10-04-2009, 07:55 PM

I really like the Gladiator UK and German ones..

Kinslayer · 10-04-2009, 08:02 PM

The German I am Legend is nothing special at all but ya Rambo & Iron Man or one of the nicest for sure

Gohasei · 10-04-2009, 08:03 PM

I like very much the Hellboy 2 french edition & Gladiator UK.
The german Harry Potters & 300 are nice too

Minimejer05 · 10-04-2009, 08:06 PM

I really think the Babylon AD and Knowing steelbooks look the coolest. Along with The Spirit.

Craig02 · 10-04-2009, 08:15 PM

IMO

1. Sweeney Todd
2. Iron Man (futureshop)
3. Fast & Furious (mediamarkt)

nycomet · 10-04-2009, 08:33 PM

The German Media Market Hellboy II is hot looking. The embossed title is gorgeous.

PrimeBane · 10-04-2009, 08:43 PM

I Am Legend FS (Canada)
Knowing (Australia)

And I'm pretty partial to the 3:10 to Yuma from France.

JudasPainkill3r · 10-04-2009, 09:13 PM

I Am Legend FS imo is the nicest. Its also my most recently aquired SB. Iron Man FS is pretty damn sweet too, thats really what got me in to collecting SB's.

X400 · 10-04-2009, 09:20 PM

omg i forgot the kill bills from france those are awesome, specially #2

and fight club.... and yeah the ones that are going to be released mmm

Man I think babylon AD is one of the ugliest ... I have it, big let down. I mean the art is cool, but its one of those fugly matte like steels. Coulda been much better if it had some metallic gleam/shine to it ... or ofcourse, embossed.

tiger_qc · 10-04-2009, 11:57 PM

I forgot DOA, this Steelbook is freaking hot!

halamadrid · 10-05-2009, 12:05 AM

I think Clone Wars has perhaps the most iconic cover. After that I agree with Iron Man (FS) and Watchmen (FS).

mr. b · 10-05-2009, 12:39 AM

I don't know if I have an absolute favorite, but I like these for the following reasons:

For the most simple cover with the best use of an embossed design: Righteous Kill

For a great front design theme to show off the film: Pans Labyrinth

For the best use of displaying sweet looking artwork on all sides of the steelbook: The Batman Begins/The Dark Knight combo.

I'm also partial to Watchmen, Iron Man (CA), and the inside of The Da Vinci Code is really nice as well.

I'll say 10,000 BC.
