Pass. Would've preferred they use the poster design, but I guess that means writing checks to Mel.

Petra_Kalbrain · 03-21-2018, 03:02 PM

Great art. Tagline ruins it for me though. “Every man dies...” should ALWAYS be the tagline for this absolute masterpiece!

MifuneFan · 03-21-2018, 03:06 PM

It's pretty creative using.the swords to create an actual shadow of a crown. The quote fits nicely with that.

CrockettandTubbs · 03-21-2018, 04:11 PM

Much prefer the Play.com version from years ago:

BizCat · 03-21-2018, 04:34 PM

Interested.

Me too, love that version.

Stevie81 · 03-21-2018, 06:18 PM

Quite like it. Hate Mel though.

No 4k Steels eh?

hockeyshark91 · 03-26-2018, 02:17 PM

When does this go live? I'll cancel my Amazon France order for Zavvi. I've received one too many damaged steels from them.

I've been having pretty good luck with my last several shipments from the foreign Amazons over the past couple months. Friday, I got a package with 8 steels from Spain and the only damaged one happen before shipping. It had a huge scratch across the front and looks like it was rewrapped

They've already sent out a replacement for it

imsounoriginal · 03-26-2018, 03:34 PM

Interior art weak too. Ugh.

Although I do like the artwork on the regular UK BD, wish they'd used it for the Steelbook:

surprised this one isn't 4K since the Gladiator one is and they are both coming out with regular 4K versions...

mgdking · 04-22-2018, 07:00 PM

This is live now.

KJH2018 · 04-22-2018, 07:17 PM

Got the email before. Not a fan of the front cover and quote, the inside is not good either, and don't know whats on the back yet. I prefer the older one that's shown.

Gorgon · 04-23-2018, 01:52 AM

Just to clarify, this one would have the latest greatest version of the film would it not?

edit: I guess I should explain myself;
wasn't "Braveheart" caught up in the 'Sony Saphire Series' debacle where they screwed up the encoding along with "Gladiator"?
Now, I'm going a few years back but that doesn't mean it was resolved.

mindset · 04-25-2018, 06:06 PM

I quite like this, though I'd rather wait for a 2 blu version from Film Arena.

Unfortunately 20th Century Fox have the rights to Braveheart in the UK (as opposed to Paramount in North America) so we're probably not getting a UHD release for the time being. Be prepared to dip again when/if they finally get around to it
