a buddy of mine was there and said it was worth the ticket price just for the experience and the spectacle.  He had never been to a SB. 
 

what did you think?  Worth it?

Yes, definitely worth it, especially since it’s a nail biter through out, even though it’s a heartbreaking loss. Just a totally different ambience that cannot be duplicated if watched in front of a big screen. It’s my first SB attendance and I waited until the night before to take the plunge.

Tough loss!

I’m there, waiting for kickoff! Decided to take the plunge last night since my team’s playing and I live in Vegas.

Sold the bland looking OCs and never bothered to get the MB, thank God! My regular shoeboxes look sturdier than this expensive glorified box.

100% agreed with MP staff, let’s stick to what this site is mainly for! Plenty of sites out there for us to share our views on world problems.

Mine banged up as well, grrr!

if you're not afraid with shipment & packaging from Arrow ... when I'm looking at both box ... it's clearly 2 different kind of visuals,

for the yellow box, you got a picture of Bruce Lee face, and as for the second box, you got soft visuals like sketches, And I really prefer this kind of design for visuals.

 

And by the way, the 2D edition is now sold out on Arrow, but still available on Amazon UK .... so I'd recommend to wait not much to avoid any sold out box.

I guess people waited for those videos to make their choice ! As you're living in US ... it may be easier to deal with Amazon Customer Service in case of damage or everthing else.

 

If you want my opinion, I'd say, I really prefer the visual for Yellow Box, because you can see all different movies on the box,

but I really prefer the visuals for digi slim from the red box ... I really like the sketches for main movies / disc digi (Big boss, Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon & Game of Death), and the others visuals are very subtle ... the design blends into the white background. 

  

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.

here it is ... the great box from Arrow Films, for all Bruce Lee movies. I took the 2D version, all have been restored in 2K.  

 

The rigid box contains a rigid book very interesting with pictures in b&w and colors, but also text. Also a folder with 24 cards + double face poster + few more photos. 😍

 

Each movie (and disc) is in a slim digi, with a visual on front, and the asian poster insidde from the movie, on the back we got all the specs & infos. 

 

This box is a must one for all fans ... you may find it in 4K and also with another visual (yellow box) only sold on Arrow Store with different visuals for each movie.

 

     

 

 

From left to right : the folder with all cards , and the book 

 

     

 

    

 

     

 

     

 

     

 

     

Not sure which version I like better, red or yellow? Decision, decision!

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:

Thank you for the update, John! Hoping the replacements are included in those boxes.

If I counted them right…

🥤 🤠 🎬 Thank you @Mrdugan for this wonderful challenge❣️

 

Challenge 26: Women in Film

 

I went with my strong, powerful female characters in great films 💪🎥 

 

- Lucy  Scarlett Johansson is a merciless warrior

- The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Noomi Rapace/Rooney Mara are Lisbeth that gets her revenge 

- Anna Sasha Luss is a feared government assassin 

- Red Sparrow Jennifer Lawrence is an agent who can manipulate, seduce and kill

- SALT Angelina Jolie is a covert CIA operative on the run

- Atomic Blonde Charlize Theron the Agent in the crown jewel in Her Majesty’s Secret intelligence Service 

 

Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth is my fav character in the films❣️😍 😘

 

@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.

Guess no need to say what these are!
