Hi Brana,

 

So we will get an actual genuine SteelBook 100% ?

 

Can you shed any light on whether or not they will have individual SteelBook cases?

 

 

P.S.

 

Do you know who kerenos is? His posts on page 2 confuses me as he is saying that theres not going to be SteelBook done for these

Sorry for the confusion.

Originaly we were suppose to come up with something other than a steelbook but we ARE doing the steelbook after all.

There is a jumbo Steelbook and a Slipcase coming out.

No individual steelcases.

Incredi-I believe Kerenos works for Alliance, the Canadian distributor. He/she mentioned this in another thread a while back.

read mesage 13 of this thread.
Also is the US going to get the same product as us or is it still different than what Futureshop will release?

Re: Lord of the Rings on Blu Ray announced!!

I have no idea who that is. I sat down with Universal/Alliance (the Canadian distributor) and Scanavo who produces Steelbook last week and I can assure you this will be a genuine steelbook release being built in Europe. These will not be individual steelbook cases per movie in some sort of Box but a thicker Steelbook package that houses all 6 Bluray discs. The digital copy discs will be attached to the package but will not fit inside as there is no package yet that can hold 9 discs.  It will be Bluray sized. And it will be different than what the U.S. is doing. The U.S. is going with a sticker graphic on the Steelbook case and we are doing our own run with the graphics printed right on as per usual.
