Thor - Best Buy Exclusive (9/13/11) - Blu-ray Forum

Quote:

Exiled to Earth after his arrogance fans the flames of an ancient conflict, The Mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth) of Asgard discovers the meaning of humility when a powerful old foe dispatches a destructive force to crush humanity. Only when the banished prince has defeated an opponent capable of crushing him in battle will he learn what it takes to be a true leader. Anthony Hopkins, Natalie Portman, Stellan Skarsgård, and Tadanobu Asano co-star in a comic-book adventure from acclaimed director Kenneth Branagh. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

G:Box · 08-09-2011, 07:16 PM

How can you tell from such a small picture? Don't get me wrong, I would love for it to be a Steelbook, but unless there's a larger pic out there I just don't see it.

stlcards · 08-09-2011, 07:25 PM

I hope it's a steel!

Borgschlumpf · 08-09-2011, 07:28 PM

if its a steel i will have to get this besides the German Steel with Helmet

RobertJoseph17 · 08-09-2011, 07:30 PM

Doesn't really look like a steel, but one can hope, I guess.

LeAnn · 08-09-2011, 07:33 PM

OoOoOOo I might have to visit BB during my lunch break for that!

mark808 · 08-09-2011, 07:36 PM

the spines, it's all about the spines bro

And if it weren't a steel, you wouldn't have the Thor #1 comic image on the back. It would be specs.

SapGoblin · 08-09-2011, 07:42 PM

Their listing for the 3D version also says Best Buy exclusive...what gives?

i dont think the comic is part of the artwork, i think part of the BB exclusive is probably that it comes with a mini version of Thor #1

Yeah, that is kind of what it looks like. I think I like the HMV steel's design better than this one anyways. We'll see what happens though. If it ends up being the same steelbook, I'll cancel my HMV order and just grab it at Best Buy

crystal_sun · 08-09-2011, 08:40 PM

wth...that's one ugly artwork

Put Friday The 13th on it and I wouldn't notice the difference.

I want the artwork from Thor Germany Media Markt!!!

Billz · 08-09-2011, 09:07 PM

Too much red.

HMV steel for me.

Le samouraï13 · 08-09-2011, 09:39 PM

I live 5 minute away from Best Buy and would’ve of loved to pick this up on release day but the artwork sucks (if that’s the artwork?) so I’m sticking with HMV UK for this one.

DK06CTR · 08-09-2011, 09:42 PM

yeah if thats the artwork it looks awful

Trekkie313 · 08-09-2011, 10:34 PM

So what? At least it will play on U.S. machines, plus its a SteelBook!
