Think this will come with an early cinema now code?

nashcameronn · 01-07-2016, 06:37 PM

Gonna pass if that's the final art. That's seriously the best they can do. Lazy.

UUUUGGGGHHHH · 01-07-2016, 07:04 PM

The issue here is that all the other SteelBooks in this line are art from the opening credits and this one doesn't appear to be, right? I remember a lot of octopus imagery in the opening credits of this but I don't remember this image. If they're going to continue it, at least be consistent.

Not sure, VUDU has it as an early digital release on Jan. 22nd.

Careful folks, a second listing has shown up as the Spectre steelbook.

Spectre

The original listing shows the image as a steelbook, but the new listing shows the same image but also mentions it in the description.

wvuwhat · 01-08-2016, 09:38 PM

I've already pre-ordered.

Herndon? Nice.

Grew up in Sterling and now live in Ashburn. Small world.

That's because they are probably all CIA agents and fans of JB.

Anyone notice the bullet hole actually looks like an octopus?

Yeah we know.. In the movie this logo transforms in an Octopus during the credits. And after all, its the logo of their organization. It's not what we could call a news

Duhhhh :-P. It's the very logo of crime syndicate S.P.E.C.T.R.E. (SPecial Executive for Counterintelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion).

Here is a nice bit of the S.P.E.C.T.R.E. logo design development :-):

"FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE" (1963):

[Show spoiler]

"THUNDERBALL" (1965):

[Show spoiler]

"DIAMONS ARE FOREVER" (1971):

[Show spoiler]

"SPECTRE" (2015):
The bullet hole from the poster and on the steelbook actually comes directly from this screenshot, when Bond tries to kill Blofeld. His 6 bullets turn into an octopus :-):

[Show spoiler]

And then off course, we saw the octopus logo in Marco Sciarra's ring:

[Show spoiler]

So whatever people think of the steelbook design, there's really some deeper meaningbehind it :-).

Why does Best Buy have such a garbage site? They won't let me cancel my normal Spectre pre order. IT COMES OUT IN A MONTH. LET ME CANCEL IT

It was doing that to me too. I think it's because the status is in processing or whatever it says
