It does look nicer in hand but it's in no way as nice as forbidden planet or rush

I know, I was just being a she-ass

I'm just hoping Nova or Plain picks it up.

I don't think I'll be double dipping. It's a great movie just not something I want more than once

I didn't like it until I opened it to watch it.

The back and internal artwork makes up for the average front.

And the title is debossed which is.nice.

I'd much rather have this but it's a little pricey.

Couldn't agree with you more on the Steadman artwork. I absolutely detest them, horrible. Don't see the appeal at all but I mean no disrespect to anyone who owns or likes them, it's just my opinion. So, safe to say, I'll never own them and would probably sell them if they were given to me as a gift.

I do own the Barrel edition, I remembering preordering it but don't exactly remember what it cost but was a huge fan of the show so I didn't really care at the time.

I know the thread is steelbooks I wouldn't want to own but I have to throw this one in as a close second to my previous response because although I own it, I hope to be getting rid of it very soon, Terminator 2 - Zavvi. Omg, what a letdown and literally, the worst steelbook I have ever received.

Dalekbuster523Bluray · 02-06-2016, 07:18 PM

I'm never going to buy a Fan4stic steelbook because that film looked worse than vomiting over yourself in public.

Troll2fan · 02-07-2016, 12:57 AM

Any Doctor Who related steelbook as well as Fan4stic steel.

I can understand Love & Monsters but why no Doctor Who at all?

ThatOneGuy · 02-07-2016, 04:18 PM

Anything that has a ton of films or seasons, like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Supernatural, ect. That would be a nightmare to find space for and I would much rather have one box set that will take up less room or can be displayed like a piece of art.

I should've been more clear rather than singling out a specific show. I guess I said Dr Who since it was recently announced and fresh in my mind. I wouldn't own any TV show related steelbook. I've only bought one TV series for myself and that was Deadwood's set. My dad bought me the Sopranos set and I bought Justified for my wife. At the end of the day, I'm just not big into collecting TV shows in any format.

It depends any steelbooks you buy. Personally, I'm only ever going to buy Doctor Who, Harry Potter and Simpsons-related ones.

Fair enough.

Unfortunately, the one steelbook I never wanted to own is the one a friend bought for me....Transformers: Age of Extinction. I did not own any other steels in the series. And this movie is one of the worst movies in recent memory. I hate this film passionately. I literally felt my IQ dropping as I watched it. I resented my friend for buying this steel for me, even if I didn't have to pay for it.

Was your friend trying to get revenge on you for something?

Gogeta149 · 03-16-2017, 12:52 AM

Probably the X-Men Steelbook re-release, I just can't stand that cover art of Mystique

ConDers · 03-16-2017, 07:14 AM

Huntsman winters war. Didn't really care for the movie and the cover artwork for front and back were so lazy.

I saw that in the theater when it came out. It just kept going on and on, good lord, it seemed like it was never going to end! A summer blockbuster with no plot whatsoever, should not be as a long as a Godfather movie. 1:20 to 2:00 is a perfect length for a summer action movie.

DarkEco910 · 03-16-2017, 11:22 PM

Anything and everything from Mondo. I'm just not a fan of any of their artwork so far.

With the exception of Best Buy's exclusive Resident Evil steelbook line, the Sony Pop Art steelbooks are equally as terrible.

Count Orlok · 11-21-2018, 10:14 AM

This steel fell from the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

LoneWolfSones · 12-08-2021, 05:21 PM

Don't care what format, etc. While I love Jim Lee's artwork and would even say this steelbook has good artwork? It's on a movie I don't particularly like. Worse is that it would match the art for some of the other DC steelbooks like Wonder Woman and Aquaman. That Wonder Woman and Aquaman got better films than Batman v Superman is amazing to me.

Also found this to be silly. Slapping a logo on the face of a character.

While they no doubt look good in 4k? I have no desire to own them physically to take up shelf space. 6-7 seasons of character building to be utterly wasted and ruined by the final season.
