Any pics of the back and inside artwork? And is it glossy?

The back has no artwork. Only has the film credits at the bottom 3rd of the back cover.
Don't know about it being glossy or not.

What no back artwork? That's lame.

It's like they are saying to us, "This movie is so uninteresting that we couldn't really find anything else interesting enough to put on the back cover."

I much prefer minimalism to overcluttered garbage like the recent Sony Steelbooks at Best Buy.

I just a saw a trailer for this movie yesterday and I think it looks pretty interesting. I'll be getting this and the Hobbit 3 steelbook on Tuesday.

I tried to order this for store pickup and when I submit the order it states "due to high demand we will remove this from your order". Then it removes it from my cart. Anyone else have this problem? I didn't think this was that sought after movie. Is it the steelbook and the price making this popular? I don't want to pay for shipping. I guess I'll be there when BB opens.

Ya I'm aware of that. My point being was that for movies like Unbroken and Fifty Shades it just feels weird for them to get a Steelbook

It may not be a sought after movie, but it may be a small quantity print run and number of units per location. Stores receive a certain amount of each exclusive, and once online orders bring the stock level down to minimum Ad requirements, store pickup is turned off for that location. Retailer exclusives are used to draw traffic into the stores and drive additional sales, if they don't reserve those minimum units, the entire point of paying for said exclusive is pointless. For online orders, this close to release day, It's based on roll-over stock after the launch.

Oh and no BD logo on the spine!

I just preordered with in-store pickup and no issues.

I thought that might be the case. Normally the store pick-up is greyed out. I ended up just adding two movies and got it shipped for free. Will not get it on release day but will get it. I hope

Glad you could secure one. Standard Pre-orders commonly arrive around release day, or just after, I wish you luck.

bundyblu · 03-21-2015, 02:13 AM

Just tried pre ordering for in store pickup using my $25 RZ certificate. It said I couldn't since the price of the steel is less than $25. I guess I'll just go to the store at opening and get it then.

Cards_Fan_15 · 03-21-2015, 02:25 AM

Still debating on this or the Walmart exclusive. I can't tell if the Walmart one is a digibook or not.

i don't think it's a Neo-Pack either. if you look at the pic on Walmart's website, it shows the normal blu with slipcover + a separate booklet.
