I managed to take all the info off it. Release on September 7th. Also got the high resolution cover and put it in the OP, you're not missing anything.

Well it's a million times better than that horrible artwork of the DVDs...

And it's new, not just a used and reused cover.

Although, we'll all agree that, an amazing artwork would involve this:



Could you imagine that cover, where you'd open it and get both halves of the face on the front and the back? (and just have a paperback sheet with all the technical specs and special features).

I understand myself.

Not entirely true, the photo was used for a release of the soundtrack. But the bright white background is a first and looks superclean

I don't know if you know it or not Kynch, but there is a dvd steelbook of Gladiator EXACTLY as you describe above with the face split in half on the front and back. It's from Germany. Here's a pic' of it (courtesy of Tutter over at SBH)



This is one of my top 5, if not my # 1, fav' movie. I like the cover, but I hope it's more of an off white or a marblized color. It might look good also with that crackle paint scheme the way they did the German 10,000 BC.

The only way I wouldn't get this one is if I stopped collecting steelbooks, and I don't see that happening.

Looks fantastic! Damn the steelbooks seem to be coming fast and furious now!

Will be ordering this one for sure. Definitely want to know if both discs are region free though.
