My Precious…
on September 20, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Holy Grail of Steelbooks has arrived! After waiting months & weeks due to backorder of preorders, ZSJL Steelbook is sitting out for displayed. It’s almost like winning the lottery on this thing. It makes me reflective of THE LORD of THE RINGS with the thoughts of ‘my precious’ repeating in my head. I want to hold it, I want to cradle it-my precious! Ok, I’m not that insane but I am thrilled it’s here

Mint Condition 4k Steelbook
on August 21, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
This transfer of Psycho is amazing. The best it’s ever looked (a little darker in tent than previous releases but it’s ok). I love how the film grain is still very much present; the grittiness hasn’t been removed. So the feel of the film remains. The sound is unlike any other release! I’m not a slasher film fan at all-and I don’t see Psycho as a slasher film. I see the masterpiece as a thriller, suspense and full of twist and turns. It’s not all about Norm and his mom; it’s much more than that. The movie does have the edgy shower scene everyone focuses on-I could do without it personally-the film is much more than that scene. I’m a Alfred Hitchcock fan all the way. His technic of film u can’t beat
As for the packaging of the 4k! It’s the only way to go with the 60th anniversary here. This Steelbook is a beauty and hopefully, I’ll be able to grab all the Hitchcock Steelbook releases.

on August 20, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow, wow, wow! This Steelbook of The Sting was sent in mint condition (well protected for shipment) unlike previous purchases of steelbooks. The movie looks great in 4k; the best it has ever looked! I recommend especially after the new method Best Buy is taking extra care of the collectible disc.

A couple of junior high outcast buddies-boy genius Wolfgang (River Phoenix) and media junkie Ben (Ethan Hawke)-start having shared dreams they can't account for. They find they've been given the schematics for a space vehicle from junkyard scraps, and the key to a wild and laugh-filled extraterrestrial adventure. Joe Dante's fun fantasy co-stars Jason Presson, James Cromwell, Dana Ivey, Robert Picardo, and the great Dick Miller. 109 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English.

4k perfection
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
I found the purchase to be a bit pricy compared to other 4k collections. I paid $50 bucks (gift card) but if u wait for a sale, you can get each 4k for $9.00-$11.00 individually. Totaling around $30-35.00. Of course, u wouldn’t get the housing box but the housing box isn’t that impressive as I thought it would be. Regardless, the 4k transfer and audio is superb! It all depends on what u want. I thought there would be more included to the collection..hint the reason I purchased it..but there really wasn’t. Do I think it’s worth the cost? After watching the films, I actually do. But if u wait for a sale, u can get the disc individually around 9-11 bucks.
Beautiful transfer-the 4k visuals are perfection-impressive.

4k perfection
on May 8, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
This 4k transfer is by far superior than other previous releases of the movie. 300 is 100% comic book that comes to life. Incredible! The extras are top notch as well..Frank Miller and Zack Snyder’s interviews are priceless! Well worth the purchase regardless if it’s at full or sale price. You won’t feel cheated

Yet again, another damaged Steelbook
on April 19, 2021
Posted by: Slate
Verified Purchase:Yes
Damaged Steelbook! I don’t live close to a BB-so I have to take my chances on Steelbooks. Braveheart in 4k is beautiful and the Steelbook would have been top notch if it hadn’t been damaged. I do love these limited edition steels but lately, I’ve been getting many screwed up either at the warehouse or during delivery.. I’m thinking of not collecting these anymore..unless I’m close to a BB. If I’m near a BB, I can always check out the item before purchasing.

I use my iPad quite a bit, mostly for internet searches, social media and games. Now it is dying and I am looking to buy a new one. Would a 64 gb work for me? What would I gain with a 256 gb?

Get more memory because of iOS updates. The iPad will last longer and not slowdown as time goes along.
