after seeing this in a very sparse movie theatre and liking it, having seen several actual rubbish movies earlier last year in theatres that rate more highly, I decided I was finally not paying attention to reviews anymore.. in fact if a movie reviews badly i might be more inclined to watch it now. more recently Joker 2 reinforced this to me

I was watching Moana 2 when I had what alcoholics refer to as a moment of clarity!

Just like Inside Out 2, there's only going to be a limited steelbook edition:


Goes well with the original's steelbook:

Directed by David Derrick Jr., Jason Hand and Dana Ledoux Miller, and produced by Christina Chen and Yvett Merino, Moana 2 features music by Grammy® winners Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, Grammy nominee Opetaia Foaʻi, and three-time Grammy winner Mark Mancina.

As much as people are free to spend their money how they wish, I have no issue with that in the least.
The reviews on Youtube back what they are saying with example footage and reasons

[PUsokrJosh305]

Looks like Sony's/Disney's obsession with 4K Steelbook only releases continue....


I also dislike the fact that they only advertised the Blu-ray version and not the 4K UHD version. What is their issue??

Judging by the reviews, I was expecting a disaster. But while it’s not as good as the first one, it’s still a pretty fun sequel. My kids (2 and 5) loved it so I guess they must have done something right? It’s nowhere near as bad as some people claim. I’d give it like a 7/10 while the first one was a 9.

Good sequel. The first was a tad long winded and I could tell they tried to remedy that a bit in this one, although I think they went a bit too far the other way and it could have used 2-3 more minutes to give the characters a good epilogue.

Definitely picking this one up though.

So...

"100G + Dolby Vision" on the future discs is just a RUMOR.

Sure. But then no. Willow has Dolby Vision so this should have it too.

And since it is a limited edition like Inside Out 2, it’ll sell out nearly everywhere in two weeks. Thus justifying and locking that high price forever-ever.

Studios are leaning way too heavily into the 4K only as a steelbook trend. It's not just Disney, which at least used to have standard as an exclusive before they let Sony make things worse. Lionsgate, Sony, Shout, some WB and some Paramount. I think Universal is the only one not doing it, so far.

You want to appeal to collectors, great, so make the steelbooks exclusive like before and do a standard version to be sold everywhere. Don't force it on everybody and call it "collectible" as an excuse to charge much more for the metal, once it becomes the only option it's not collectible anymore. I would even be fine with having a standard exclusive like DMC was doing. If the UK versions had a digital copy and I could redeem it in the US, I'd just get those instead of supporting this crappy Sony partnership. Plus the steelbooks have been crap, they keep using the same artwork they'd use if they had been exclusives. I'd rather just have normal artwork.

I blame Best Buy for abandoning us.

[BluMan28]

Disney loves them some high demand hilariously overpriced "collectible" merchandise of their IPs.

I'm beginning to think they see these $70 steelbook only releases as an accomplishment, not a problem.

[glazball]

Sigh. I don't like steelbooks so I guess I'll be buying the BD then, just like Wish and Inside Out 2. I miss the Disney Movie Club!!

I'm betting they've reasoned there aren't enough average joes who'd buy the standard 4K over the Blu-ray to justify the cost. The scalpers will ensure the steelbooks sell out at full retail price. The mainstream consumer will buy the Blu-ray or stream. The ad is meant for the mainstream consumer.
