  1. Alright so for challenge 2 I have chosen the following,

     

    Number 1

    Rogue One by Blufans

    image.thumb.jpeg.202880eb233948bc53b51a91fb0dcbba.jpeg

    For me this is one of my top 3 favourite OC of all time. The all white background with the minimal design showcasing the main characters just looks great.

     

    Number 2

    Interstellar by Manta Lab

    image.thumb.jpeg.6924fa4885f34d858109087c3c746caa.jpeg
    This one is special for me as it was my very first OC I ever got thanks to the MP GB was it originally released last year.

     

    Number 3

    Reservoir Dogs by Novamedia

    image.thumb.jpeg.0535f3cb4d7927c65868f2ec2e34ea54.jpeg
    Now this was my very first premium release I ever got back in June 2020. If it wasn’t for this I’d probably never have got into collecting movie steelbooks as at the time I was mainly collecting video game steelbooks.

     

    Number 4

    Blade Runner 2049 by FAC

    image.thumb.jpeg.f379fe7aef2013bf17c51104fe952bae.jpeg

    Not much I can really say, a great film deserves a great release and FAC done a great job with this. All I need now is the OC but it goes for a crazy price. 
     

    Number 5

    Transformers

    image.thumb.jpeg.fe776fb1f4a6b6063a9010c9c4f0009c.jpeg
    Now for the non-steelbook choice I decided to go with this release. I’m generally not sure where it is from as it was a Christmas gift back when I was 7 years old back in 2007, so it hold a lot sentimental value for me as I’m a huge Transformers fan and opening this on Christmas Day I was over the moon.
     

    Cool thing about this release is that it also transforms as you can see in the below image.

    And at the back is where the discs are kept.

    @MikeH5856 asked in the beauty shots topic about my home theater setup so here are some photos and a video.  
     

    Had it built from scratch in my downstairs, taking a guest room and open space and converting to a relatively large theater.  Powered by a Sony VPL-VW675ES 4K projector and a JBL Synthesis Atmos system and a panasonic UB 9000 (region free of course) blu ray player, the theater rocks despite the lack of Dolby vision from the projector and somewhat compromised atmos due to the glass wall behind the curtain.  
     

    Still, the dogs and I love it!!

    I’m a simple man, if I see a dog I automatically like it 😅. Absolutely amazing setup you have going on looks real nice and cozy.

    It is no secret in these parts that lenticulars are not really my thing and my measly 5 lentis in my collection attest to that.

    However... the following is an example of a lenticular done to perfection. The Fight Club DL from Manta has legendary status among lentis and rightly so. 

    Not only is it aesthetically glorious but the wonderful transition perfectly encapsulates the theme of the movie, something that 99% of lentis do not even attempt to do (Nils' Memento is an obvious exception).

    image.thumb.jpeg.6a00e047d548200bdb7b235ff275f630.jpegimage.thumb.jpeg.cc9e80e0488d0e66dc3e57ddd580329f.jpeg

     

    So naturally, transitional lentis done right carry much more appeal to me than the run-of-the-mill depth lentis, which have long become a tired gimmick in my eyes.

    I will always favor a nice fullslip over a lenti, except when I find the lenti artwork superior to the fullslip (Manta BR DL being a recent example).

     

    Nova's Reservoir Dogs is another favorite of mine - the transition is pretty cool, I must say.

    I also include Jaws HDZ - the transition is less obvious than the preceding two, but still noticeable on the lady swimmer.

  4. Alright sooooo here I begin. When it comes to lentis I’m not the biggest collector and the only time I would get a lenti is when I prefer it over the fullslip. 
     

    As for what is my favourite lenti it is 100% the greatest lenti of all time - Fight Club by Manta Lab 


    image.thumb.jpeg.d094fae0f51c2edf71ef951e441f73bd.jpeg

    This in my opinion is a lenti with a purpose as it shows a transition of both characters on the back & front.

     

    As for what is my favourite type of lenti I will have to say depth & lenti. It is really hard to pick.

     

    Below are 2 of my favourite lentis, I don’t have many.

     

    Iron Man by Blufans. Now this lenti isn’t the best and I think Blufans could of done a better job, nonetheless the idea of it showing both Tony and then transitioning into Iron Man.

    Last but not least is Your Name by Kimchi.

    I was pleased with this release and thought the lenti was done nicely as it show one of the iconic scenes from the movie. You get a nice transition for both characters disappearing.
