How the hell is that arrogant? It's sensible, obvious and logical.

The arrogant thing would be to expect that a country should not use their native language on their nation's releases just because someone in a foreign country might not like it.

Can you be any more ignorant?

mrpants likes to post controversial posts and stir up trouble. His hilarious comments in his Steelbook thread for example, come to mind.

I actually hate the Canadian version of Hulk more which for some reason the translation of 'Hulk' is 'Le Hulk'. Huh?

I'm embarrassed every time we do it. But I guess the studios have to do their very best to appeal to the Transformers generation for max profit.

Do you guys think the prices will drop down, under 10 GBP mark, as the release date approaches ? ... 17 GBP is **wayyy** too high !!

I hope so, I'm actually thinking about cancelling some of my orders at TheHut at £13 each. I have a feeling they will all drop to about £10 not long after release. I mean, look at Heat for example, already £8 - £12 at a few retailers

I have the same £13 Hut orders and I'm probably going to cancel them as well, there not my favourite films of all times and probably wouldn't get watched more than once and I don't actualy think the steels are that great TBH.

I think I ordered them just for the sake of more steels and the standard £17 price is definately to high to be doing that and I've decided £13 probably is as well, if they do make it to the £8 mark I might have a dable, will wait and see.

On a side note I think The Hut need to sort out there pre-order system, over the course of the last week I have recieve emails for each of the four items I pre-ordered with them appologising for the delay in dispatching and telling me there trying to resolve the issue????

I'm having the same problem

lgans316 · 10-06-2012, 09:57 AM

It is not a problem. Just ignore and wait for the Steelbooks to arrive in good nick.

Andy CYP · 10-06-2012, 11:34 AM

Anyone else getting a bit worried at the lack of inside artwork images? The recent disney wave (Armageddon, Con Air eg) all had none and the absence of artwork here is making me a bit concerned.

ahmadka · 10-06-2012, 04:23 PM

Its for 14.95 GBP each at TheHut now ... bummer :/

I no, and Amazon refuse to price match them for some reason. The only places they seem to price match are Tesco, HMV and Play.

Visionist · 10-12-2012, 04:27 PM

Ordered Heat from Amazon UK. Inside artwork would logically be the diner scene.

My all-time favourite film.

Frasr · 10-12-2012, 07:39 PM

decided to cancel them all from The Hut. I'm just gonna wait and see if they get reduced after release. I still have Heat ordered from WowHD for £7.99, I'd happily pay that price for each of them

Yeah £7.99 would be great. I wouldnt pay over £10 for them. I'm sure they will eventually come down since they aren't exclusive to the one retailer, meaning there's loads of them!

Bulletproof Tiger · 10-27-2012, 12:27 PM

The Seven one looks sweet, but the Heat Steel looks horrible! The canada version of Heat is better. Might pick up Seven if it goes down in price.

agreed, ive just cancelled my order for i am legend as i refuse to pay £15. if we all just wait, it wont be long before they are half price

KingLeonidas300 · 10-27-2012, 04:38 PM

Cancelled my pre-orders as well. Need to start scalling back and try to avoid these re-releases/catalog titles that I already have in steelbook or another edition.

To those who will be purchasing, hope you and enjoy and post pictures.

Cheers!

I've kept Blade Runner on order, but I agree it's more than it's really worth as a catalogue title. As one of my favourite movies though (which I don't already have on Blu-ray) then I'm willing this one time as I'll get my money's worth out of it.
