Damn that's a kickass steelbook!! I know what I want for Christmas! I really liked this movie. The only problem I had was the shaky cam espically during the last fight scene.

And now we play the waiting game... Such a beautiful steel.

DarkEco910 · 10-20-2013, 03:45 AM

And, perhaps a 10% Cartwheel discount is on the horizon for this release, as well.

Can you apply that to an existing preorder?

Cartwheel can only be used in-store.

That's right. This is what happens when I burn the candle at both ends!

fiveseven4combat · 10-20-2013, 06:36 AM

Glad I didn't pre-order the Zavvi one. Will get this.

mport5150 · 10-20-2013, 10:56 AM

I'm in for this as well! A 10% off cartwheel coupon would work for me!

Jutty · 10-20-2013, 11:16 AM

Never used the Cartwheel app,,,looks like ill need to get this installed,Target is hitting it good with all the lovely steelbooks of late

,,Shame on you BB

Great News!

I hope this is a sign that Future Shop will get one. Even if they don't, that's fine, because there's going to be a Target opening up close to where I live in a few weeks. Ironically, that's the same mall I go to for Future Shop.

In each corner of the mall is a Future Shop, Target and Best Buy. The other one is a Toys R' Us. When are we going to get Toys R' Us Exclusives?

Blu_Ray_Addict · 10-20-2013, 02:53 PM

Possibly going to be the best blind buy of the year for me? Steelbook looks great but how's the movie? I thought it looked interesting from the trailers but never really pulled me in to watch it.

Noro · 10-20-2013, 05:06 PM

I will be getting this! I hope there isn't a ton of other store exclusives so I miss out on bonus discs, lol

Since this isn't a Paramount title we should be ok.

Well, this is from Sony, which has created multiple Bonus Discs for several titles.

It's true, though.

The Amazing Spider-Man
Best Buy = Steelbook
Target = Bonus Disc
Walmart = Two Bonus Discs (one before the movie was released in theaters, one with the BD)

Sparkle
Target = Bonus Disc
Walmart = Bonus Disc

In the first 20 minutes I was thinking this has the makings of a absolute classic, but it slowly but surely descended into the totally predictable and absurd. The 'villain' is perhaps one of the most unconvincing I can remember, and I felt it was a huge mistake by the screenwriters/director to give him so much influence on the plot and gave him far to much screen time to the point I was left cringing by his inane antics. I was genuinely disappointed with how it turned out, because like I said, the concept promised so much and the art direction was off the scale, but in the end the plot line and predictable action sequences was its undoing. This is all imo of course. Should have given it to Ridley Scott-could have gone down with Blade Runner as a classic of the sci-fi canon.

Still a very nice looking steel though, but I could never justify paying top dollar for a mediocre/poor film.

My thoughts exactly. Great SteelBook, disappointing film. I'll have to pass on this one. But would pick it up for $10
