Steelbook blu-rays for selected Bond films

I assumed DN was part of the steelbook collection. This is a glaring omission.

Doesn't matter to me I suppose. I already have the Bond 50 set anyway.

I own these now, minus CR and QOS.

The cases are nice, but the discs are the same as the previous Blu-Ray issues. Nice collector's items, until Blu-Ray goes out of style.

Wish all of the standard bluray sleeves could have the same fronts and spines as the steelbooks, using the main title imagery, at least until they ever restore the original poster artwork.

I'm fine with them just using the fonts from the original posters rather than the VHS '90s fonts.

Yep - surprised it hasn't happened earlier.

Trying to apply that minimalist aesthetic from the Craig films onto the older films is offputting. Though I actually do like the covers for FRWL, GF and OHMSS. That's when they work.

So deep n' gritty. Certainly befits a film that features a 15 year old girl who wants to ride Roger Moore's ice cream cone.

And with the current hardon for helicopters thoroughly capitalised on...
