Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
Looks like it's going to be a Steelbook judging by the below image. It's also good to see this release is being hammered with extras

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
The steelbook may have been confirmed, but what retailers are carrying it hasn't be. Could be an exclusive for Play or HMV.

Good point. Think I'll hold out until things have been confirmed. Either way, that Steelbook will be mine.

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
I'll be buying it, even though I own the three disc special edition. I love that DVD.

It better have all the DVD extras.

I've just decided to do the same; with over two months until release, there's plenty of time for some manoeuvring

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
Pre-ordered mine too. Not out till Sept, so plenty of time to cancel if its not the steelbook. Plus I wanted to get in at the £13.99 price just in case it goes up later.

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
Up to just under £18 now on Amazon, that's what I get for waiting a day to pre order.

Not surprised by that considering "Gladiator" is currently the number 1 selling blu-ray (#3 in dvd) on the site, they're just cashing in.

Glad I whacked in my pre-order first thing this morning!

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
Always pre-book if you think it's dodgy pricing -especially with Amazon as they tend to stick with the price and you can always cancel.

Seemed a bit expensive to me but I still bought it off them as I read it's £20+ in the US.

And thanks to welsh mussels for the heads up!

Re: gladiator blu-ray release date
Those who didn't pre-order when it was £13.99 I wouldn't panic, HMV have just dropped their price to £14.99, I fully expect Amazon to match them at some point.

Yeah me, to, I was wondering when the US site was doing it for $28, £14 was way to cheap.
