its the truth. over priced and crap artwork, the majority of others are saying the same thing

charging more than a brand new steelbook (avengers, the hunger games etc) + using crappy lazy artwork = fail

play.com are charing 10.99 for there steelbooks which are pretty fresh in comparison to these

Ordered Heat from WowHD and not received this yet. Hs any one else who ordered from here received this yet? I checked my account and this has no dispatch date and order status is at back order?

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem or as had this problem with WowHD before?

This is my First and Probably the last time I will use these

Me too. Im beginning to think I should have just let my Amazon one (which dropped to £12? at one point) stay on pre-order. It would have been sent by now (the other Warner ones have been).

I had this on order from wowhd only to cancel last week as I bought the De Niro boxset which included Heat,I received my refund,what I will say was I used to purchase Cd's from this company when they were cdwow and they were notoriously slow.
They used to post from Hong Kong,I am unaware if that is still the case,my worry was that is a long way for a steelbook to come not knowing how they package them.

1) Yes

2) No, they will have a clean artwork

3) There has been few HMV exclusive releases in the past. Some of them had printed rating logo but that trend changed with Sherlock Holmes 2 and Wrath of the Titans

4) Never know what these Studios have in mind as they have a bunch of titles to be continously re-released in different packaging.

5) Not all. Warner released few of them in Japan with the same design but of course for twice or thrice the price which makes the UK release even more affordable.

For instance, the JP release of Matrix was printed Matrix instead of The Matrix.

Before asking any more questions may I kindly ask you to do some research.

There are some questions which will remain unanswered unless we are closer to the release date:

1. Will Last Samurai feature lossless audio?

2. Is 300 the complete experience version?

3. Would these release include all the discs?

I appreciate the responses, I moved my posting to a different thread though as I had missed that one. I actually did some research but then felt I needed to post to clear up some confusion since it appears steelbooks tend to get released more often in the UK than here in the USA. Apologies if I put you out any by responding but as stated, appreciate you going the extra mile and responding in great detail as well.
