Didn't like the big text font on the spine and extra text on the bottom of the front on the Canadian release.
Back artwork looks to be different on this one (and i bet the inside will be different too)
Lionsgate studio so a gloss finish is possible even though a spot gloss treatment would fit with the artwork.
 
Killer film. Brilliant. I have the Canadian so won't be double dipping but hugely recommend this
 
True but what a film though.

Agree its a brilliant film.

Quite a few years ago id gone out into town on a Saturday after getting dumped and ended up having a few to many and a rubbish night out. Came home slumped on the sofa and ended up watching this and Threads back to back on TV. Most miserbale evening ever :rotfl:.

Jesus, glad you didn't watch Watership Down afterwards otherwise there would be no escaping the depression.
 
A few pics (thanks to ricster) :)
Full gloss finish.

Awesome. I was gutted when this went out of stock and then reluctant when it came back at £19.99.

Very odd that a limited run comes in and out of stock like this.
 
is it a good finish and worth £9.99 or shall I wait for a few more pennies off?
 
Seems to be the day for resurrected steelbooks. So how does an exclusive, limited edition steelboook turn up at another retailer. o_O

Some are only exclusive for a preset period of time so when exclusivity ends, remaining stock can be offered to other retailers by the studio. If a retailer has been sitting on stock they can't shift they can return back to studio, who again, can offer out to other retailers. Seems more the latter with the 20 or so titles HMV have just taken on, a lot of those have been in stock at Zavvi for a long time.

Weird that Zavvi are still listing it as an exclusive and charging £11.99.

Are the limited edition numbers trueful? 2,000 doesn't sound like a lot and so I am surprised they are struggling to sell them and have enough left to warrant bringing in a second retailer. Or is this figure just the number that Zavvi committed to during the exclusivity period?

Since when do we believe those limited numbers? :p;)
