The steelbook is a little bland, but I'll still get it, since this will be the first blu-ray released for Cocoon in the UK.

It'll look good next to Close Encounters Of The Third Kind.

Definitely in for this one! Need to keep an eye on AmazonUK.

Friggin' W00T.

They should have done a steely Cocoon 1&2 doublepack, but whatever, I'll be all over this.

Cause it such an awesome movie.

I remember watching this when I was young not knowing anything about it. Now that I'm older I enjoy it much more.

Unfortunately, there was a sequel to this.

We do not speak of "that" around here.

Thanks Neoz! Preordered 4 of the 6 Fox steels and Hunger Games 2.
I didn't see Cocoon in the blu-ray.com database. Has it been submitted?

There's 6

Cocoon, 28 Weeks Later, Brazil, The Fly, Percy Jackson Lightning Thief, Sunshine

Which ones did you miss

Also code 5OFF25PC will save you 5 on Amazon.uk and Amazon.de. Not sure the specs but it works on pre-orders

Fixed!
I had no interest in Percy Jackson or Sunshine. The Fly barely made the cut, although I might cancel later on if it doesn't experience I nice price drop.

Thanks for the code I will give it a try!

UK - Cocoon

Finish
Matte finish with metallic shine.

Comments
The finish is almost satin like again. There is a sheen to it. Its like one layer of gloss so satin finish sounds about right. Its more shinier than a matte finish.

All images can be clicked on for a closer view. They are all high res and can be viewed at full scale.

I have this one on preorder but don't have the money for it right now. While it is nice not the favorite of the newer Fox titles. I think 28 Weeks Later is so far.

Photo below shows the credits mistake
They put the credits for Cocoon: The Return on the back of the Steelbook
A massive mistake


Its a beautiful looking steelbook has a sheen effect that makes it look a bit glossy when held to the light
Its a Matte finish but good quality
Overall its looks great apart from the credits mistake

I had completely forgotten about this one.
Another to add to the list when my finances and job situation get sorted out.

[ManUtd]

Looks good to me. Mine is on the way, hopefully it arrives later this week.
