The sunglasses being featured so heavily on the clear slip is so dumb, and it looks terrible. There's so many other cooler things they could have done here, with regards to guns, bullets, etc...

FlamedLiquid · 04-10-2023, 09:16 PM

Lmao at those sunglasses. Otherwise a pretty cool looking steelbook. I got in a preorder regardless. Price is right when it comes to Lionsgate steelbooks

MifuneFan · 04-10-2023, 09:16 PM

Honestly yeah, I would have liked it better if they just got rid of the sunglasses all together.

CSM101 · 04-10-2023, 09:17 PM

Agreed. Shell casings or something like that would’ve been more fitting. I’m wondering what’s on the back and inner art.

mjk-94 · 04-11-2023, 01:56 AM

lol the sunglasses

Bobafett345 · 04-11-2023, 05:10 AM

In other words, you guys don't like that they chose to throw some serious...

[Show spoiler]

I'll see myself out.

I'm good with my German edition:

Darth Marcus · 04-11-2023, 01:56 PM

The sunglasses are cheesy af... but I kinda like it.

Bobafett345 · 04-19-2023, 10:05 AM

If I had a big steelbook channel, I’d get Nic Cage and Sammi Rotibi together to do a quick opener for the unboxing:

Can you bring me the steelbook of Rambo?
Part One, Two, or Three?
I've only seen Part One.

PoLskA · 06-05-2023, 03:36 AM

4 COPIES AT MY STORE

***POSTCARD NOT INCLUDED***

INSIDE ART PRINTED UPSIDE DOWN (?)

FIRST PRESSING STAMPED

Bobafett345 · 06-06-2023, 05:39 PM

That seems like an easy enough fix: popping the interior and flipping it around. Since the inside art has a clean break in the middle, it won't be an issue.

Has anyone watched theirs yet and noticed any differences (edits) not announced from the original release?

I watched this on streaming recently (don't recall which service), and the end card with the line about the world's largest arms suppliers/security council members had been removed. Curious if itany changes had been made to this (aisde from the obvious 4K and audio upgrades) releases, or there were any other changes not documented.

You can't do that... lol

You can't just turn one side upside down because the opening would be toward the spine then

I lost it.

I played mental tetris with it for ten minutes before and it made sense then. I can't recreate it now.

PNguyen · 06-06-2023, 05:57 PM

the glasses look worse in photos, steelbook looks much better without the slipcover

garnuts · 06-07-2023, 06:41 PM

Re: The inside art upside down.

On the Reddit steelbook sub, the artist who did the design says it was on purpose:

"I had the pleasure of making the art for lionsgate. Totally intentional. After he makes his first sale which kicks off his obsession, he lays flat on the bed, the shot upside down the same as his world."
