New Movie Buyer saying "What's Up" - Future Shop Community Forums

These are in fact the first two things I have talk to the studios about when building Steelbook. The form factor needs to be Bluray sized and absolutely no French on the back. We really want these releases to be highly collectible. I am open to any suggestions as well for SBs you guys would liek to see. One of my goals for this year is to go back and relaunch some already released on BD 'classics' on SB, of course if we can get artwork that is cool enough. I personally would love to see a Leon The Professional SB, Fifth Element, Gladiator and Flight Club to name a few. Ian had a few NR titles in the works from before the holidays that I am finalazing now. We have 2012 coming for March 2, New Moon for March 20 and Sherlock Holmes for March 30th in the works. Just to give you guys a heads up if you haven't read about this already but there are some cool first to Bluray titles coming this year: includes LOTR, Indiana Jones Quadrilogy, Alien Quadrilogy, Dr Zhivago, Saving Private Ryan, Jurassic Park, Scarface & Back To The Future Trilogy.

Oh yeah.

Craig02 · 01-19-2010, 11:05 PM

Very nice

Hope there are some group buys going for these

mikeyt912 · 01-19-2010, 11:12 PM

wow

bigjee · 01-19-2010, 11:15 PM

Loved the fact that the SB's will be blu-ray sized and NO FRENCH on the SB's.

Damn the 'new guy' hit the nail on the head with that one.

FS should focus on NR only, They dont have the SteelBook market like Europe does to support Catalog Steels at an inflated price. He goes to crazy he will have stale stock

xradman · 01-19-2010, 11:20 PM

Good news. I hope there are no Iron Paks in that list.

IMO he should release 3 NR for every 1 released title(catalog).

There must be a balance.
NR releases for crappy movies will be bad also.

Kynch · 01-19-2010, 11:24 PM

NR = New Release?

bigjee · 01-19-2010, 11:27 PM

Oh and I think Brana should go for steelbook titles exclusive to Canada or released 1 or 2 other countries max.

Not like Gladiator which was released in many countries.

jw · 01-19-2010, 11:32 PM

Its a cost thing I am sure. Catalog titles are not a good idea when trying to move 4000 units. If he goes overboard and releases a bunch of shelf weights, He will have a hard time getting funding for future titles

Hell to the yes, I hope they do some sort of collaboration. The best part of what the new person said is that all SteelBooks must be BD sized and also no French writing

That is great news, Angels & Demons looks really bad with the two titles especially since it's pretty much the same, the only difference is the L on Angels and and É in Demons...

Back to the Future, Scarface, LOTR, Toy Story 1-2 and Saw VI!

I can't wait for BTTF and LOTR I haven't watched my DVD copies since I turned to high definition in 2007, I am eagerly waiting for them.

twinkie · 01-20-2010, 01:06 AM

i hope he doesn't forget about those Disney releases
