"3D" Printed on Steelbooks - Blu-ray Forum

It's not that I like 3D printed it's just that it doesn't bother me.

Doesn't bother me either, no opinion. I care far more about the overall feel and look and 3D being printed there plays far less of an influence than than embossing, exlcusive artwork, overall attractiveness etc.

Exactly. You said it better than I did.

+1. No option to pick for me so I didnt. Doesnt bother me at all, just not important!

Not bothered either way.

This is probably more a poll for 3d haters

I love 3d but not 3d printed on steelbook, go with sticker option like 300 ROAE steelbook

casperuk · 10-01-2014, 11:11 AM

i like 3D movies.

but don't like the 3D on the text of the SB or the artwork unless it's the name of the movie.

Phil92 · 10-01-2014, 11:28 AM

I don't mind either way about the '3D' text being on the SteelBook or not. Like someone else pointed out, if it's there, I'd prefer if it was done with the same font as the title of the movie itself.

As for watching 3D, I have a 3D setup and purchase all available titles in 3D, but I hardly ever - if ever - manage to complete the film with glasses on. I just normally skim through.

What I meant was it is likely to attract 3D haters, sorry

I love 3D at the movies it gives the viewer a sense of being in the action as long as it's done correctly. I have a 3D setup in my dedicated home movie theatre and watching Avatar is a whole different experience. Talk about spectacular.
I'm not at all bothered by 3D on the Steelbooks either.

Scorpion Soldier · 10-01-2014, 10:41 AM

It really depends on wether the 3D text is properly stylised to fit in with the rest of the design.

This for example is perfect:

The text is neatly stylised to fit in with the title, and doesn't stand out looking cheap or anything.

This however:

Cheap text, it stands out from the title too much and the style of the artwork in general.

So as long as it's designed right, I don't mind the 3D text.

Same here. I would prefer it not be on the cover, but it's not a deal breaker and it's not the end of the world if it is.
