Sold the bland looking OCs and never bothered to get the MB, thank God! My regular shoeboxes look sturdier than this expensive glorified box.
-
Ordered both, awaiting the yellow box from Arrow and undecided whether to cancel the red box from Amazon. I agree the latter has better artwork inside. What made me order the yellow box after ordering the red box was the Chinese characters on the front.

Oh my my, finally a premium release for my all-time favorite movie!
-
Glad we’re getting this since I sold my copy of the underwhelming ToC release!
-
Considering myself lucky to get an early copy, but unlucky to get a messed up DL. BN still my favorite premium retailer even if there’re some QC issues. Beautiful set all around!

Challenge 32 To show my love for martial arts movies, here are my 3 entries: Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - Hero almost avoided a slow death from poison. Fist of Fury - Hero charged to his death with a flying kick and gut-wrenching yell. Hero - Hero sacrificed himself in a volley of arrows. Ultimate heartbreaking death: SPL - Hero shockingly pushed out of a high-rise after he won the fight!

Challenge 31 Trying not to pick the usual favorites, here are some others I had rewatched a few times over the years:

@Veum Can’t believe without seeing your list first when I picked mine, they almost match especially had I picked Lucy instead of Ghost in the Shell!
-
Challenge 26 Taking the easy route here - female main character… Favorite actress easily Jodie Foster who besides her acting chops has something je ne sais quoi.
-
Challenge 25 Another fun and easy challenge! Infernal Affairs - Chinese, specifically Cantonese Inglourious Basterds - German Brotherhood of the Wolf - French The Raid - Indonesian Ong Bak - Thai District 13 much deserves a premium, if not at least a Blu-ray steelbook!
-
Challenge 24 This one’s fun and easy! Here are my top 5 winners: 1. The Godfather 2. The Godfather Part II 3. Gladiator 4. Braveheart 5. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Saving Private Ryan should have won Best Picture instead of that silly Shakespeare in Love!

Playing catch-up here… Challenge 14 Favorite animal is Bird since I’m an aspiring bird photographer.
-
Challenge #23 So many genres that I like! If I have to pick just one, I’d say Martial Arts. Oddball choice, much neglected in terms of steelbooks, let alone premiums. Indeed, it’s not even listed in the challenge. Top 5 favorites: 1. SPL 2. Flash Point 3. Ip Man 4. The Raid (1 & 2 tie) 5. Ong-Bak (replacing Kiss of the Dragon since I no longer have a copy) And the movie that started it all - Fist of Fury.

You guys got it all wrong… it’s some other movie called Mathilda. 😅 Baffled why JR is not on the OC at all! Maybe because NP’s star has turned out to shine much brighter than JR’s? Maybe just maybe the folks at ML are so smitten with NP?? Also maybe because some Chinese still write from right to left??? Utterly disappointed to say the least!

Random picks from the decades… 50s - Ben-Hur 60s - Doctor Zhivago 70s - Alien 80s - The Last Emperor 90s - L.A. Confidential Favorite decade, probably the 80s when I first started collecting.
-
Due to self restricted space, I usually stream new films first before deciding whether to get a physical copy. Now as the collection keeps growing, I’ve reluctantly started to keep only the ones I can’t live without.

Late to this fun challenge series… Sherlock Holmes - Robert Downey Jr. & Jude Law Brotherhood of the Wolf - Samuel Le Bihan & Mark Dacascos District 13 - David Belle & Cyril Raffaelli Hensel & Gretel - Jeremy Renner & Gemma Arterton Legend - Tom Hardy & Tom Hardy

Thank you @extantsrevenge! I’d like to see everyone’s Top 100 list or at least Top 30! 😅
