Jaws 2 (45th Anniversary) 4K Steelbook - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

gkolb · 07-03-2023, 10:02 PM

Mine arrived in a box with air pillows. No damage.

So, Is this a matte finish, or the Zero finish that I've seen mentioned once or twice in other threads?
The girl and the bikini seem to almost be more reflective than the rest of the art.
But it's not a spot gloss reflection. (Everything else is a dead matte finish.)

Asking for all friends.

Was your steelbook asleep or awake? I've seen that those air pillows are quite comfy.

So is that a good thing or a bad thing that it's matte and not a glossy finish?

I have this in my cart. Still not sure if I want the steelbook or
the standard 4K. But I'm sure the steelbook will sell out quicker than the other.

I had mine since last week but didn't know that they were also doing a limited collectors edition till yesterday. Though ouch a 100 dollars? I mean granted I think most can agree that this is the 2nd best Shark movie ever. Also looks rather cool set for the limited edition but 100 dollars?

I picked up the last copy (out of two) at Best Buy. It's now sold out in my area.

one69chev · 07-07-2023, 01:14 AM

I snagged a copy at a not so local Best Buy (an hours drive away). This particular store doesn't usually have a lot of Steels in stock, but they had quite a few different titles today.

I figure since the young water-skiing lady became Jaws' lunch, why should I be concerned about strap logistics?

Bobafett345 · 07-08-2023, 04:26 AM

You SHOULD care. Because depending on the strap's location, it could get caught in his teeth. Like the T-Rex, he could never floss with those tiny nubs. Then peta will come out and have a field day about how beachgoers aren't being thoughtful in their attire before being consumed by sharks!

Remember beach goers, always buy "easy digest" swim wear, to help our aquatic friends have an easier time after they swim up for a quick bite! Now available in all clothing departments.

Shop smart, shop S-Mart!

By the looks of their teeth, sharks seem to have access to a great dental plan. They never seem to lose any of their teeth.
They swallow tires, auto license plates and other flotsam and jetsam all the time yet they seem to do fine. I don't think human swimwear will cause them any harm.

This tells me you've never checked out a book on sharks from the library as a kid...

I like the reverse angle artwork on the steelbook cover. It a nice complement to the standard angle view artwork on the disc and on the non-steelbook 4K cover.

Sorry to dig up this thread from the past; but does anyone have a copy they are looking to sell?

concolt · 07-25-2024, 07:00 PM

Had no clue this was going for so much. Makes me tempted to sell it and just pick up the regular releases of 3 and Revenge since I never got the Jaws steelbook.

Brian81 · 07-26-2024, 01:20 PM

It's so ugly, too. I'd those Zavvi BD ones. Now THOSE were nice!
