Men in Black 1-3 boxset (Play.com Exclusive Steelbook) - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

malcy30 · 06-22-2012, 10:27 PM

Interesting to see Play have now signed up Sony for a new release Steelbook exclusive. The last Sony Steelbook in the UK was the Fincher Girl with a dragon tattoo HMV exclusive.

So does that mean the only major studio still with HMV for exclusive steelbooks are Disney ? although they also have Studio Canal (Rampart) and Lionsgate (Hunger Games)

You forgot the 'h' on the end. Otherwise i'll be posting the TOWIE bloke

Tbh, i would rather get individual steelbooks for movies in trilogy or franchises. I seem to prefer the individual artwork each would have to offer.

Guess who else only recently bought the MIB boxset. I also have the Bourne one, but I'm buying the steelbooks anyways. At least if I'm so poor I can't afford to leave the house, I'll still have my steelbooks

Don't do that for Top Gun - that comes up as £99.99. Or £250 in Ebay prices

Great attitude mate. I'm right with you on that one :-D

I knew something like this would happen, happy I didn't purchase the single releases the other month. Will probably get this, even though I haven't seem the third yet but hey ho.

Now up for sale at £29.99

Guess the high price as MIB3 is a new release film so the standard BD will be at least £15.

Black Sabbath · 06-25-2012, 06:35 AM

This will be cool until the probable 4th one

It would have to include the 3D version to warrant paying that much. Sure MIB3 is new, but the first two have just been re-released and I'm not convinced many will pay £29.99 to essentially get one new film.

It'll wait until I see what it looks like, but I'm pretty sure I'm just going to get MIB3 on its own.

Agree too expensive for me as well.
Have MIB 1 and 2 already paid around £12.

Would have considered standalone MIB steelbook at £15. Seems a strange decision to only do as a 3 film boxset.

I too would have preferred a single MIB film in steelbook, preferably MIB3, because I don't like having multiple films in the same steelbook. I suppose two is okay, but three is just off-putting.

Sony released the original in Steel in Germany

MIB 2 never got a Steel though

Just to let you know Play.com emailed me just now to confirm that it is definitely only the 2D version of Men In Black III

Bummer

If you've seen the trailer for the 3rd on a recent 3D Blu you could make a case that MIB3 was made for 3D
