I doubt it Zavvi now own Arrow so they will probably be the 1st to offer pre order's even before any major announcements.

Question is do you go Steelbook which mentions 3 disks or Special Edition which is 2 disk but has 60 page book both £29.99 ?

If Zavvi owns Arrow, why would they not have that privilege? It’s literally theirs to do with as they please.

Looks great! This is a day one preorder for me.

[TheBondFan]

I told you guys.

They may come back up at any moment but they just dropped the listings when the title is searched for, so I think they did accidentally jump their own gun. Having said that, the third disc is a 1080p Blu-ray of the film (the two-disc non-Steelbook is the 4K and a BD bonus features disc), so people who want a combo pack should probably go for the Steelbook. I think I’ll probably stick with the two-disc because I really don’t see myself watching the movie in 1080p again and those art cards are cool.

I was gonna say I should just hand my bank details over to Arrow and be done with it, but Zavvi have got them anyway

Then what's the point in Arrow even announcing an impending official announcement, with clue; if Zavvi are just going to drop a pre-order?

Edit: They've taken the link down

Curious. Not long after I tweeted Fran.

Nope. It exists now only in my memory.

Bonus points for getting Sting in on the steel.

Also, how's the British release of Children Of Dune? Anyone?

[Christian Muth]

I'm surprised and more than a little let down that the extended TV cut is not included here in HD.

Love it.

Really love it.

Getting the LE, but definitely love the OG poster artwork on the Steelbook. Would have been a cool reversible cover for the LE.
