Required for those Middle Earth fans!!!
on September 6, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
Love the artwork. Love the steelbook casing. Love that they're not stacked in a way that promotes disc scratching. It's a pricey purchase when there are no extra's included but I'm okay with that. I watched the extra's once in the 9 years I had the DVD and then Blu-ray collectors edition. As many reviewers stated, these dent easily during shipping. I went into my store and they brought out four for me to compare after hearing my complaint. I ended up buying this and the LoTR set with no dents after waiting several months for restocking. If you're a Middle Earth fan, this is a required piece of the collection!

Stop stacking 4k discs!!!
on June 7, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
Love Westworld (yes, even season 2). Love my SteelBook collection, too. But for the love of HD stop stacking 4k discs to save space and/or money! I expect higher standards from SteelBooks. Their coating only makes them scratch-resistant, not scratch-proof.
If you're okay with stacked 4k discs, this is an excellent addition to your SteelBook collection. While I am not happy with the product, I would still recommend it since not everyone has my high standards.

One of my favorite 4k purchases this year.
on April 9, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
There's zero reason to not purchase this 4k movie. This is a great addition to your steelbook collection, too. I've had this on VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, and now 4k. The 4k shows blistering pictures that everyone should see.

May not be worth upgrade if you have the blu-ray
on April 9, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
The case I received was from 2016 which means everything inside--code-wise--was expired. The exterior plastic was a bit crinkled but it wasn't enough to warrant a return/exchange. I'd stick with the Blu-ray if you already have, but if you don't have it yet the price isn't bad for 4k. Some scenes really pop in the 4k.

This is a great addition to your steelbook collection. I enjoyed the movie a lot more than I was expecting hence the steelbook decision.

Upgrade your sound and style with Samsung Galaxy Buds Live. Designed with the largest Galaxy Buds speaker, improved bass and an open fit, playlists sound more like live music than ever before. When you need to block out background noise for a phone call or important task, initiate Active Noise Cancellation1 with a touch. Buds Live are easy on the eyes, light on the ears and have long-lasting battery life2. **1 Features including Active Noise Canceling are enabled through a Bluetooth connection or the Galaxy Wearable app on Android, available through Google Play Store, and the Galaxy Buds app on iOS devices, available through the App Store. **2 Actual battery life may vary and depend on usage conditions such as function settings, playback file type, and Bluetooth signal strength.

With an Update, I'd Purchase the Next Gen
on April 9, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
I want to like these so much--but there are just too many sound quality issues. The design is the main reason I purchased and I don't regret that part of the purchase at all. General sound quality is great, but there's definite Bluetooth connectivity issues during calls (especially if the other line is on speaker) and while listening to audio.

A Worthy Upgrade to a Classic Favorite
on April 9, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great 4k transfer. Buyer beware that while the 4k makes the colors pop, it also brings to light the VFX of the era. Been a fan of this movie since I first saw it in 1990.

This is a great addition to your steelbook collection. I prefer the second one, personally, but this was too delicious to pass up.

Much better than the cheaper 4k option!!
on March 13, 2021
Posted by: Babbles
Verified Purchase:Yes
So much better than the $89.99 version where they stacked the 4k discs. These are not stacked and have individual spots. The exterior case that hold all the seasons was a little banged up but this is too be expected with the type of material used. Overall, very pleased with this 4k collection.
