Today new

 

Apocalypse Now 4K   german Steelbook                            for a great price 20 €

 

Artcards & Booklets from the Deluxe Edition since i don't need them anymore,

 

Advance cover for my Custom - FullSlip

so the edition including steelbook costs me only 40 € ,thus I save 58 € compared to the NovaEdition

 

 

 

 

 

Looks really neat!

I can see where you are coming from. Even though I will buy the Nova Edition I am a bit disappointed. For such a high price we don't even get a OC. This great film deserves a better premium release IMHO.

So, don't take this the wrong way, but just adding more tierships at any level is kinda diluting the point of them. I realize Silver is now gone, but there now seems to be more tiered spots than before in total.

And I realize some might think this hypocritical of me as I got both Gold last time (as a new member) and Plat this round, but still

I believe in MP to make the right judgement.

Lenticular effect.

Currently, UC says this release will have 6 lenticulars very likely!!

 

Limited stock.

 

 

 

Is it only me or does Murphy's ear kinda look off in the lenticular effect?

@4kiraL About Mulholland Dr., there was a Spanish collector edition, differente than usual, made by a regular distributor, limited but not numbered, with a hard full slip, includying a digipack, 3 discs,  and a little booklet. Very beautiful for me, and absolutely sold out. You can see it here.

Looks really nice!!! Never seen that one before, thanks!

Hm, but do we count editions from regular distributors like that as Premium treatment? If yes then the criterion release of Mulholland Dr. would also count as Premium I guess (Full Slip Digipack plus Booklet).

I know that Apocalypse Now has some collector's editions from standard retailers but I don't think it has a Premium release yet?

I also think it's important to consider the popularity of a movie here. As much as I'd love to have a 2001 Level treatment of The Abyss, the reality is there is not that much certainty if that would sell well I think. But I hope I'm wrong though.

Discussion of Heat led to consideration of an expanded set for it, and got me thinking

 What would be your top choices for any movie that wcl premium treatment should be given to? I think expanded sets, should be a solid mix of cinematically rich, quality plot, and has strong replayability. Ideally I think 4k scan availability should also be a strong consideration, but not a requirement. It should not have had a premium release by another brand, be by disney(sorry Tron Legacy), and probably shouldn't be apart of a broader series or have a notable sequel (sorry indiana jones and back to the future) due to licensing complexity

 

Personally, my top five would be:

Usual Suspects

Spies Like Us

Apocalypse Now

Book of Eli

The Crow

 

How about yours?

 

I think Apocalypse Now and Silence of the Lambs would fit these criteria well. Both have not have premium releases yet. They are "cinematically rich" and are quite popular, so the demand is definitely there, so the risk for WCL would be pretty low.

Other Kubrick titles are strong contenders as well, especially Clockwork Orange. The popular David Lynch titles would sell well, too. There exists no premium release for Mulholland Dr. at all, which has quite a large fanbase.

Considering how popular Nolan is, Memento would be huge as well.

This guy does some incredible artwork:

I can't afford it but these posters are stunning.

I can imagine that another problem is the uncertainty about the popularity of a certain release. Here I wish that there is more communication between retailers and collectors. Maybe in the future make polls about what movies have high demand.

MP is becoming more and more popular and so does the hobby of collecting physical media in general. I think the best we can hope for, is that with increase of demand for premiums the retailers increase the number of limitations on average. I don't know whether MP can have any influence on this in the future.

There is of course the issue of resources as well. But if a product is popular, there is money to be made and increasing for instance the limitation for the next fanatic release from 300 to e.g. 500 will make everyone happier.

Yeah, I really dont get how they're still in business lol. All their releases are either bad or average. 

I think what they are good at is marketing and branding. And well, I bought some of their editions because I thought they were so special since eceryone seems to love them. But seeing them on my shelf, everything just screams "cheap" to me. Definitely not worth the 40 or 50 bucks imho.

Still I cannot deny that some of their artwork is really good. So I can totally understand the hype.

Hey guys,

here are my purchases over the last months:

2001: a space odyssey (Titans of Cult)

I don't know what to think of this series. I think the artwork of the ToC steelbooks are awesome but I don't like the plastic box at all. The glued part is noticably visible and the back side information is printed onto the box, so it's not removable.

Also in the future I will avoid UK releases since they print their age restiction logos on everything. I should have went for the German edition that has a removable sticker as the age logo. Overall I think the steelbook is really nice. I hope some day I can find the WCL Edition of this masterpiece.

Midsommar (art crafts, A24 4k Director's Cut, Weltkino Mediabook)

Managed to expand my Midsommar collection! Shout out to A24 for sending me a second item for free after the first package got lost during shipping. Love all 3 of them.

Parasite (Injoingan Full Slip B, Koch Media Mediabook B)

I am relatively new to collecting and this Parasite Full Slip is my first Steelbook Full Slip. What I notice the most is the weight of a Steelbook Full Slip in contrast to a scanavo Full Slip. I really love the feel of the weight in my hands and the nice thickness of the Slip. I might become a Steelbook lover after all.

Beauty Shot looks really great. I am looking forward to it.

Only wished there would be a little memorabilia like in Prestige and Gladiator.

Another opinion I'd like to share is that I actually like the white Full Slip more than the A1 but I'd rather have them replace the White A2. I think A1 and A2 (de Armas) fit together thematically and complement each other quite nicely.

Edit: @raylight was faster than me

Maybe put A1 (Craig), A2 (de Armas) and the Lenticular in a OC and then sell the White A2 separately???

Kimchidvd is proposing this new fullslip design.

I love this design. Especially the choice of colors. This is no doubt my favourite one. Please add this to the one click.

Everyone I talked about this movie with agrees that Ana de Armas was the star of this film. So it is only natural that she  should get her own Full Slip.

This is beyond beaufiful. I'd buy this blind if I had the money.

Well now! 😀

I am very privileged to have the opportunity to follow up @Count Dantes Post with my own.

 

I received this today, (Sunday, surprisingly) via Canada Post from our beloved friend, which he crafted with his own two VERY talented hands!!! 🥳

I am so very touched at the knowledge you thought of me enough to take the time to make such an incredible Wall Placard that will be the absolute hi-light of my Media Room  my dear Friend!

I am truly honoured by your thoughts and well wishes.

 

THANK-YOU ! So very much for one of the nicest and most personal Christmas gifts I've ever received Brody; 😍

 

 

A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!  🥰

Damn bro!

A big thank to him

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That JSA looks great

@extantsrevenge I can totally relate. For me it was an average movie at best. I think Tenet has its moments but I didn't enjoy Tenet the majority of the time.

The sound is indeed terrible. My ears actually hurt from that movie, never have had this experience before.

Imho Nolan is a decent director but a terrible writer. 

Still waiting for Memento in 4k...

The German Mediabook has a similar design I think

Note that this Director's cut is actually 4k as opposed to the Japanese Steelbook which contains only the theatrical version in 4k and the Director's cut is added as a normal Blu ray.

Yo guys, it's back in stock.

My user name comes into play at last.
