I mean, this movie is targeted towards women, and women aren't huge steelbook collectors unless I'm missing something. It seems like a lost opportunity for Best Buy to actually make an exclusive more geared towards the demographic (like $10 Ebook money, a digibook, just about anything else...)

Yeah, I think this what I'm most bothered about - the missed opportunity. If Best Buy wants to make an exclusive for this movie with paraphernalia for the film, I won't try to stop anybody from buying it. And if they want to be tongue-in-cheek about it, at least market it as a "Steelebook".

If Best Buy is going to pick a film for a steelbook release, I wish they would have made one for a more deserving film like John Wick, Birdman, Foxcatcher, Whiplash, Nightcrawler, etc. They may not get the same hype as 50 Shades, but at least they'd make sense.

We only get so many steels, I wish they would have made it count.

Oh well, I guess it's good for the minority who liked it.

I wonder if the steelbook will come with (dog) collar accents.

Now that...would make sense.

That high!?

Anybody that buys this has definitely reached and/or exceeded the first step of the Steelbooks Anonymous program.

Someone in the Blu-ray release thread had an even better question...

Will the Blu-ray include a "gag" reel?

Day 1 purchase

Probably a rental though since I neglected to take my wife to see this. She constantly reminds me.

It's still in theaters.

Not my kind of movie, but it's a nice looking Steelbook in my opinion

Yeah, I wish a lot more BD covers were given this sort of minimalistic design. So much artwork is cluttered these days.

I'm sure there are many who would happily splash out on this release.

Heapashifter · 03-16-2015, 11:19 PM

I actually like that cover art.

RoyalCrimson · 03-20-2015, 08:02 PM

^ That art is the perfect match, just as boring as the movie

In-store pick-up isn't working. Keep getting red error up top.

Heapashifter · 04-29-2015, 12:15 AM

I've decided I'm going to get this

AdrianL · 04-29-2015, 03:26 AM

Most underrated flick of the year for me.

I've had in-store pickup for this for awhile.
