Hi there, My name's Vincent. I'm French and living in Paris. It's been a few weeks already that I joined the forum. I've been a peeping Tom until now and I guess it's time to introduce myself. I've started collecting steelbooks very recently. I bought my first one in january this year, it was Dune which is a great movie and my absolute favorite book and universe. I didn't have a clue that such amazing objects existed. I bought the 3 different versions of the movie available at the time and I realized there was beautiful releases of all my favorite movies. I then started buying all the ones I could find. It was not until th…

Hello! I have found out about Media Psychos yesterday when looking for informations on an exclusive Chinese blu-ray and decided to join the community. I'm into physical medias since I was a kid and started collecting art books, CDs and vinyl records as a teenager. I started a small blu-ray collection about ten years ago and became more serious about it around 2015, focusing on classic movies, films noirs and Animation. As a videophile, I have a special interest in Japanese discs and I usually care for the authoring quality before anything else, pixel peeping being a hobby of mine. Greeting to all MP members around the world!

Hi to all the Psychos Some may remember me by former user name Marty80. Unfortunately I was banned due to posting content from another source. I was unable to reach out to Admin, so I decided to create a new account best suited to my collecting habits. As the name suggests I only collect amarays from Asia i.e. WCL, MLife & MAG with the exception of some digibooks from UHD Club. I dislike premium Steelbook’s as they are far more common on the market, they are easy to wear & tear and the discs are harder to remove. I hope to have a chance to start over again & meet more collectors.

I just discovered Media Psychos and am eager to explore the group. I'm a fanatical Blu-ray & 4K UHD media collector with special interest in steelbooks and limited collector editions. I've long since run out of storage space for the media shelves I have lining my basement walls, but I'm a bit of a compulsive collector.

This is 702Steels, 702 for Las Vegas. I found some old photos of how my collection has changed over the years. Mostly in terms of which ones I chose to face forward, it's definitely evolved 😝 I went from Harry Potter and older, rare steelbooks to Game of Thrones and Marvel and one clicks. This is just one part of my collection, I have many more shelves I have to take photos of 😊

My name is Joshua and I started not only my steelbook craze but also in general watching a lot more movies both old and new ones and I have grown a passion for this. I hope to continue to grow my collection of movies, especially steel books for years to come. 🙂

Happy to join your international group from Canada. I am an occasional film critic with an M.A. in Film theory, and I own over 3000 moves on disk. I also have a YouTube channel called--- John Villeneuve: The Top 50 Films of 2010; and should you want to see other years (to the present) then simply add the subsequent year you wish to view, i.e., 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and lastly, 2021. I generally attend TIFF every year so my Top 50's tend to include a lot of films that do not come out until the following year, so that is why, for example, if you type, John Villeneuve - The Top 50 Films of 2021, or go to the link (below), …

Hi everyone. I'm from the south of France, near Marseille, and I'm 37 years young. I've been collecting since I got my PS2 and its DVD player. But it's just recently (about 2 years now) that I moved from DVD to BD and UHD. And even more recent that I'm collecting beautiful pieces like the one we find here. I've heard about this forum for a long time now and I always restrained myself to join because I didn't want to go crazy and buy everything. But I go crazy anyway 😅 so I thought "Hey what the heck, I'll join". So here I am. I haven't been on this kind of forum since a while now, I'll need a moment to get use to it again. Like some I have a youtube …

Hi there. My name is Christophe and I am 39 years old. I've always been attracted to the world of steelbooks, but I've really been interested in it recently. I must have about 40 steelbooks, but mostly ordinary ones. I am delighted to have discovered a site like MP which gives us the chance to obtain magnificent pieces. See you soon 😉

Hey everybody, I'm DrQuestions! I joined this site a few months back, but just had the opportunity to sit down on view the site from a desktop (which makes it so much easier to navigate). I don’t think I would classify myself as a Media "Psycho", but I have been collecting Steelbooks for a little bit now. The first Steelbook I ever got was for Call of Duty Black Ops and it is dented beyond belief at this point. I mostly collect movie Steelbooks, but I very much regret not preordering the Lego Skywalker Saga for the Steelbook (being an avid Lego collector as well). I have also recently learned of Letterboxd and have been considering making an account to better involve myse…

hello everyone and thank you for letting me join this world group .. My name is Mauro and I am an Italian guy of 34 years, thanks to an Italian friend I learned about your site and I immediately slingshot. From what I see you are a wonderful and united reality, where you can talk and exchange ideas and share our passions regarding cinema. Specifically, I recently entered this world, starting to take a full slip edition of the Cine Museum of the Goonies on their website.In particular, I am more interested in cult titles of world cinema, such as Back to the Future, Karate kid, Top gun, the Goonies and many others. In fact, I can't wait to make the first pre-order with you s…

I am Gandybar and I am excited to be a part of this community. I am from Oklahoma in a little tiny town in the middle of nowhere. Here on the prairie, we don't have a lot of movie theaters or even particularly stable internet. When I met my now wife, we got into movie collecting almost out of necessity. We both loved movies and we couldn't really get to the theaters all that often, so we just started hoarding blu-rays. As I started getting more and more into collecting, I joined various communities on Reddit. That is how I found out that this place existed. I thought it looked like a good bunch of folks, so I joined. My avatar is Cooper from Twin Peaks, I got my w…

Hello all from The Netherlands! I only recently stumbled on this site as I got back in collecting physical media after several years of absence, Wow, how did the film collecting change since I remembered last! I started out collecting DVDs when DVD had just replaced VHS and simply started to buy regular editions of movies I liked. (My first: The Matrix in an "Ivy Hill Snapper", very soon after it came out) While collecting over several years up to a few hundred DVDs, I did not pay special attention to collectors editions yet. DVD was followed-up by blu-ray and about 5 years back my buying rate started to slow down. (Kids + Netflix are to blame I guess) O…

Hey everyone, glad to be here! Found this site from one of the steelbook Discords that I’m in. I mostly collect video games and video game steelbooks, but have recently gotten into steelbooks for my favorite movies. I’m sure I’ll be wanting to go for some premiums at some point. Good to meet you all!

Hi everyone! I only discovered this site a couple days ago but this is exactly what I've been looking for to get these exclusive releases. I recently completed major construction of my home theater and am doing the finishing touches now. Next I'll be building some custom shelves to display all my physical media.

Hello fellow friends! My name is Aim taken from my discord and other platforms I have used this name on. I have always loved steelbooks for their unique look and ability to make even the oldest movies have a fresh new sleek look. I found out about MP from the /r/Steelbooks discord as members on there were talking about it and I had no idea what it was and they pointed me in this direction. I am from the US and don't have a set location currently as I'm in the military and they love to move me around. Unfortunately I am going on deployment soon, most likely within the next month so I won't be here long until I have to go inactive. But on the bright side when I …

Hello, Thanks for the welcome, I joined last week but haven't had a moment to come back around until now. I got into most of the known Korean releases a few years ago, and have just been mostly collecting movies that I'm a fan of, and trying to get the editions that I love most. I came from trying to get special editions at Best Buy many years ago, and then seeing what else is out there in the world. My name is a play on the "Chaos Reigns" phrase from Antichrist. My favorite modern filmmakers are Carlos Reygadas, Fatih Akin, Pablo Larrain. Thanks for having me :). I discovered the site while seeing the Lighthouse edition from a while back, and searching where it 'cam…

Hello everyone from California, USA! I'm a long-time Videophile and Collector from the 1980s to now. I still play VHS and Laserdisc for my kids occasionally, lol. I'm 39 years old, happily married and have 4 kids (and another on the way!). My primary genres is Horror, Giallo and Anime, but always love a good Action or Comedy as well. I love all the Special/Limited/Collector Editions that we are getting from all the Boutique Distributors (Arrow, 88 Films, Scream Factory, ..etc), and am so glad these companies do that for us. Thananks for having me!
